MTB PREHISTORY OF THE BOOK VERSES IN RHYME: San Miniato

Fabio Cappelli

San Miniato

D where the densely wooded down green

the ruins have the flavor of the time

the whitewashed light districts

are steps to a calm wind

valuable campaign blunt

gray broken by gullies

vineyards and cypress trees

curly wool in small flocks

still surrounds the imperial crown

The ELP tawny feline emblem

with the gun drawn and aimed to make

guard at the ford near large

the top of the hill stands

the valley off from the horizon

port of San Miniato centuries

middle ground and solid bridge.

.... ABOUT SMARTARC

Fabio Cappelli

E 'fact my recent participation in an excursion with Smartarc for those who were not aware of what Smartarc and therefore did not know what he's talking about, is invited to view the blog which can be accessed from the links of my (blog ), in those circumstances I would go back to the guided Moriolo in places, in search of the legendary castle was built there to guard and defend the boundaries of San Miniato.

The starting point was at the church where Moriolo has welcomed the parish priest, Don Luciano, who has willingly joined our company to bring us exactly what you are looking for ; remains of this medieval fortress.

The group as a whole has counted eight participants, these trips is worth pointing out, do not have an academic tone, and even where the purpose is to disseminate knowledge and culture of our area, not lessons they tend to become boring and sterile, but surveys on places of interest, open to anyone, and as free!

joints at a building not too far from the church, were read the passage from documentation historical documents to validate the authenticity of the site, were also distributed copies of ancient street maps showing the roads and settlements of the time, all this has resulted in a tangible response from the establishment has shown that those are probably the only parts of the castle still standing.
The building, now privately owned and undergoing renovation, shows a portion of brick badly worn that it should ensure a medieval origin, in particular catches your eye a counter in a corner of the manor probably in that About this element may indicate a tower structure, perhaps a rock, and do not want a real castle as well as the collective imagination, probably a garrison of soldiers with prominent function of sighting in the vicinity of the step Moriolo.
The visit then continued in the building, going down in a basement, with its stone and brick walls and beautiful times on the ceiling, in particular, I have stopped to look at what apparently seemed like a normal door access to a floor-level and that in fact proved to be a well, then, that in the military logic of the time, also characterized by long sieges, it was an 'indispensable source of autonomy, which allowed the defenders holed up inside the walls of pending dell'interevento of friendly forces.
Going upstairs we could see and appreciate the important work of recovery can be implemented as a true work of conservation.
Between explanation and the other, a comment and a question, this frosty morning in late November and flown quickly, but not before visiting the church and the Saint-Germain to conon Moriolo.
In so far as written, would add a proper thanks to the organization and its founding Smartarc Francis, who in great detail and quality of investigation has given us extraordinary flashes of history, thanks also to all other Participants Alessio, Luciano, Massimo, Meri, Rita and little Matilda.

WONDERS OF THE TRIO ON SELLARONDA

Fabio Cappelli

Campitello di Fassa - 23-27 June 2010 - The 4 days of Trent, which has experienced its apotheosis in the worthy Sella Ronda Bike Day, has seen unparalleled scenery of the Dolomites on a trio of absolute exception! Dimitri, Michael and myself, performing in a full immersion cycling giving unusual display of athletic ability.

E 'began with the arrival on site, unloading luggage and taking possession of the rooms at the hotel Enrosadira, which has proved to live up to expectations with well-ordered rooms, breakfasts and dinners are commensurate with a lot of hard work, personal and courteous and ready to accommodate our requests.

The first day on hold and flew away the next day, and tomorrow has arrived! Wake up early, but not too much, adequate breakfast, at last check tires and chains and so saddle up! With a bit of spirit of improvisation we headed towards the first pass in the Dolomites, the Fedaia, objectively used an atmospheric pressure of the arrival of our house in the shadow of the Marmolada was more labored than expected, but was give sufficient time to time for the right adaptation to high altitude and everything went off well.

the trio of the wonders on p.so Fedaia

The tour continued with the steep descent to Ciapela Hut, from there, after a few kilometers, Rocca Pietore places we tacked to Livinallongo del Col di Lana and then continued towards Arabba to lie at the foot of the pass Pordoi, a name that brings awe and respect for being the scene of several challenges including cycling champions who have made this sport.

include a pedal stroke and the other also Pordoi was completed and with it the first lap / approach to the important event on Sunday 27.

In a hotel in the evening, we planned the itinerary for the day, and an accomplice of that operator, we have unwisely accepted his proposal that foresaw the Campitello-route-P.so Costalunga P.so Lavazè-Campitello , a location unknown to us all, the paper is presented partocolari difficulty and after some hesitation we decided to take up the gauntlet, much bell'azzardo! Mind you, the landscapes around talking, as well as those dealt with before and after proved beautiful, but has left its mark on the body, a real odyssey into the unknown, a journey faced the banner of "who knows that we can find!" certainly a lot of uphill to the top of the hill the first P.so Costalunga, the border between Trentino and Alto Adige, then after a brief stop to look intently at the turquoise waters of Lake Carezza, we have concentrated in the valley below, with a fast descent endless arrived at Nova Ponente, we turned to the P.so Lavazè, we renamed the Vuvuzela, but not in honor of that terrible trumpets sounded in those days in the South African stage, but because of the incredible swarms of flies as the horns we have been buzzing in the ears until 1808 m above sea level at the top of the pass.

is worth noting that the P.so Lavazè faced by Nova Ponente has a length of ca.12 km for an average gradient of 7.7% which puts a strain on legs and head, is beautiful which is a very busy stretch of road and therefore free from exhaust pipes, but otherwise, between the sun and the work already accumulated, the uncertainty of the miles that still awaited us did attend scenes of madness, as the face psycho Michael I thought I had already lost up to half!

reached the brow for the descent we took a dive much more fraught than at the Adige, from here we passed the small village of Stava, in the municipality of Tesero and for which it is worth spending a few words in memory of victims of one of the worst man-made disasters in 1985 caused an immense destruction and death of 285 people, an avoidable tragedy of which we spoke little and instead just sarrebbe transmit to future generations for a perpetual reminder of what might lead to human carelessness.

Closed the sad interlude of the Val di Stava, the ride is dedicated to the continued physical exhaustion for many km on the rump now and for many still to be done to return to Campitello.

illustrious victims from time to sweat it was Dimitri that the grip of a terrible crisis of hunger has outdone himself having to tap into every source of energy left to return to the hotel, in short the ride is continued for part of the Val di Fiemme and Val di Fassa virtually all, a constant false floor that does not seem to have no end.

With superhuman effort that ended the second day, with the certainty that the next would be characterized by absolute rest in view of the Sella Ronda and indeed it was!

the morning of third day began with a walk in fluency in Val Duron, among other things that day in the competition of the Sella Ronda Hero, a grueling mountain bike race over distances and height differences crazy, and then continued with a trip to Canazei and from there drive up the hairpin turns of the saddle, so, just to taste what it would be touched by them a few hours! End of the day we become familiar with the bed for the last evening, one that would have taken us straight to the streets of the legendary four steps of the Sella.

E 'Day arrived, one of those who enter the athletic history of an individual, those days which will be discussed again in the coming years, the air is crisp, the sun is shining and the sky is already high in blue skies, the bikes are being taken away for the last time from their store, a fast and controlled Then they departed in the direction of Canazei, from there the traffic has been barred from 8:30 am and will remain so until 15:30, when we cross the barriers that give the official start to the company, many who are already riding anything that has 2 wheels (as long pushed by human strength) are climbing the winding bends to the Dolomites, the company is exceptional men and women of all ages and all walks of life take shape in every state with confidence the first rides, the way to go but it is very much the enthusiasm that accompanies us, a carousel of color, dialects, of extravagance brought about with much conviction, knowing that it is not the result but has to be there, to enjoy once a year for a series of panoramic perspective that have made this corner of Italy is a paradise.

four steps I have followed in the following order, Sella, Gardena, Campolongo and Pordoi, which complicates a beautiful, temperate day in late June, were appreciated in the best possible way, with a rhythm and a cycle tour ' atmosphere of great events, lived in a climate of collective celebration, with meetings also exceptional as when the seat first and then just out of Corvara, we had the pleasure of crossing our path with that of the great Gilberto Simoni, one of the many famous people with their presence has decided to honor this colorful swirl with its total number of participants is unbelievable! It speaks of about 20000 admissions!

Well what to add more but my personal thanks to my companions in adventure, with the hope that we can repeat in future performances of this caliber and obviously not lost even on the circuits in our house.

LORENZO VS FABIO

Fabio Cappelli

Below I quote an article on a site that I recommend to all friends to view, http://www.amiciperlabici.it/ complete with introduction by President of that company, dates back to late August, but since my blog has been opened much later, I felt still to be added now:

Hello to all my dear friends,

this summer break is really ending, but as for me ... .. ends happily.

Last Friday, an excellent bike ride of 100 km between the campaigns of good wine, truffles and mushrooms behind the safe driving of a new acquisition for our team .... Fabio. (Lent to a bike rider on the road).

As' President, I have really let me congratulate for the excellent and substantial summer transfer market, widely breached the salary ceiling (about 8 new purchases and no transfer) good facing situations of accident and cyclists still not in the group but that awaits them with open arms, holding the jersey despite proposals for self-radiation.

Back to Fabio and around the beautiful streets in the Tuscan unknown to me I let his words describing the great day of sport and friendship

Lorenzo FRIENDS FOR BIKE - GREVE'S BRIDGE

Fabio MTB 100% - San Miniato

the background: ... .. and then they had lost sight of a few months earlier due to force majeure, with a promise to make that lowest common denominator that is the bicycle, would make them recover sooner or later, shoulder to shoulder for some kind of Italian roads.

There were already gone close at the Sella Ronda Bike Day held in late June in the background of that superlative natural scenery are the Dolomites, but this time a logistical problem had prevented the meeting of the two , who had to settle for take away only the same streets in the company of a colorful carousel of friends up and down the hairpin bends of the valleys of Trent.

Facts: Both of us had hoped, we both were thinking for a while ', but every time comes a hindrance who was a healthy blend cycling, it seemed right, wanting to disturb reminiscences of Manzoni, which s'avesse that meeting not to do, now or ever, of course, the main obstacle was the distance, then a favorable coincidence has led that in the end there was a meeting with many km eaten under a blazing sun, surrounded by a world-class stage, riding the winding Tuscan countryside between Florence and Pisa.

the record: rendezvous was set for 9:00 am at the intersection traffic lights on the highway that leads from Empoli in Montespertoli, after the usual greetings was launched officially tour of this hot and humid day in late August, the start was naturally quiet, between a word and the other two have started to warm up their legs, while the lungs have become familiar with very heavy air.

Asphalt is slipped under the wheels, and so soon found themselves at the foot of the incline of the first day, which leads to Ortimino, then down to Castelfiorentino, after a stop-off, due to level crossing closed, continued towards Gambassi, here waiting for the real big climb of the tour, a long and endless strip of tar, for most exposed to the sun and in the final stretch with slopes that have exceeded the 10%.

E 'began the slow and laborious ascent to the summit of the hill of Gambassi, the heat has made the road surface a simmering oven and here I think in kilometers but in feet, one after another, in pursuit of constant patience, who knows what has passed in the minds of two climbers, grief? Resignation? Who can tell? Rose, with a sense of duty were up! Son arrived in Pill, about halfway from the top and first paraded in front the church lovely romantic as mentioned by Sigerico Francigena stop along the way, and yet you go, now the site change, it seems a short section of a ring highway, the two are small on This broad language of asphalt, the gradients do not allow escape, shadow!? Not even talking about it, yet few rides, those who ride on the pedals, finally on top! And although there is still a good deal 'for the way back, there is the awareness that he had put behind the stroke certainly more difficult of the whole journey.

The circumnavigation of these winds on the main points that connects Gambassi Montaione, the scenario is typical of the Tuscan countryside, between roads dotted with cypress trees, stone cottages on the ridges and all the charm of a land that encloses if all ages who come through in the course of history.

But back to the record, are now undoubtedly the muscles warm, the skin oozes from every pore rivers of liquid mixed with mineral salts, and our Argonauts are about to enter in Montaione, is just a small pit stop and a few minutes to look at the beautiful valley that opens their eyes from the terrace of the country, unfortunately, the visibility is not the best, not less, however, allows a glimpse of the magnificent surrounding horizon.

Leaving Montaione finally a long and windy descent, comes as a blessing! After granting a truce so go to our intrepid travelers, too bad from this point of view, the slopes are never too long! But

the journey continues and at the foot of the slope have turned right headed to the village of Armor, the first outpost of the province of Pisa, outside the town is waiting for a long straight that come to the end of that, the path turns left, continues completely flat until you cross the village of La Serra, and left again along another dirizzone which is connected with the main road that leads to Palaia Montopoli, and just this village will be the next joint that have crossed our already exhausted players.

Another uphill to the town center and a stop under the tower of Magdalen rifocillante to then take in the most verdant stretch of the whole route, the spot Montebicchieri, an area characterized by dense vegetation and a path away from busy roads not far from here, but in this oasis of peace seems that life runs at a different pace, it seems that here the nature of complaints when a small piece of wild beauty, leaving out the noise from the nearby industrial areas, but the invitation to romance, and time to take the high road, meeting at the last work day of the rise in San Miniato, the sun hours not really rest, each breath is hot air that goes right up the bronchi, and even if you start to see the end, the ride started to become a 'odyssey, and who does cycling know what I mean!

However the castle is stormed San Miniato, ten centuries of history have warmly embraced the two wanderers in the shadow of the mighty tower of Frederick II, a stop to admire the traits of the citadel and then down to the valley for a final hit and run cultural, archaeological excavations of San Genesio.

now blending the legs by force of inertia, are the last glorious cycling back to where it all began more than four hours before, certainly tired, soaked with sweat, his mind clouded, but knowing that they had completed a around the many faces, and honored to have an appointment postponed too many times, Finally, wanting to make a synthesis also of numeric character at the end of this output will have the budget, a total of 83 km (100 with transfers), an uphill climb of 1009 m, an average speed of 20.9 km / h, a total time of 3h 58 '57 "including stops (about 4h 50' including transfers), Kal burned about 3200."

Fabio Thanks again and good luck for the rest ... ... ... ... ..

to Lawrence soon.

ON THE TRAIL OF MTB 100%

Fabio Cappelli

What are MTB 100%?

They are a group of friends who share a passion for mountain biking, meet on a regular basis to address every weekend in the saddle to their bikes, roads of all kinds, from the asphalt to the most inaccessible forest paths, lively by a desire to see new vistas of nature unattainable!

The trips normally follow the routes within the City of San Miniato and those immediately adjacent, but especially during the summer, it is possible that the outputs are organized on a larger scale, as it can confirm that some components take part in competitions locally or regionally.

Anyone can join this group, no need for cards, special invitations or recommendations will not be used or set of training samples, we need a good mountain bike, and the right spirit of adventure to tackle trails known .... and unknown! The group consists of heterogeneous individuals with each other, for example, Richard is the veteran, unlike the young group, but never subdued to blend the legs, with little in technique, it compensates with an inexhaustible strength, a very very bad customer over long distances, then there is Stephen, the mastiff, which is shooting a devastating strength, almost complete in terms of athletic looks good even on the race despite the fact that the identity card certifying that the 50 are long gone! And what about the tightrope walker Philippe! The climb will probably not be his preferred field of battle, but when the road becomes steep and winding paths becomes more agile than a cat up a tree branch, and then Alex the president, his appearances are rare, but they leave the sign for the tenacity and technique out of the ordinary.

Fabrizio method, which over time with humility and perseverance has deployed an ability to bridge gaps enough to overturn an order that seemed written and instead saw him on many competitive venues! And yet, Francesco technician, able to disassemble and reassemble a bike with absolute confidence, to appreciate its ability to climber and acrobat! And what about George the pragmatic? The more the game gets harder and shows considerable potential, a mix of energy and madness, this suffers from boredom in the case of climbs too monotonous! Vincenzo the Sicilian capable of impossible comebacks, powerful pedaling and determined to never give up, pride and pure technique, and to think that a lot of energy consumed in the chat .....! E 'duty to point out that the ones just mentioned are the components that wear the official colors group, in reality the pink of those who every Saturday or Sunday deals with perseverance and enthusiasm in the streets of our beautiful land is much wider and varied as those who have repeatedly enriched over time with their presence the gay raids on two wheels, from the individual to the other groups scattered here and there in San Miniato and the surrounding towns, contrbuiscono entusiamante do to improve the off-road cycling.

Oh I forgot! Among the members there would also be the writer, but as far as my description, well I leave to others the difficult task of profiling.
