Cycling tour from Grugliasco to Pramollo. Quite a summer day, strong sun with just a bit of mist in the late afternoon. Several cars around but also lots of cyclists along the entire tour.
Up to Pinerolo with a fast and regular rhythm, then stopped a couple of minutes for a snack in the church square (unfortunately the fountain was closed). They were celebrating a wedding in the meantime.
After Pinerolo the car traffic basically disappeared. The first part of the climb alternates steep and flat sections. Reached Pramollo, the climb becomes then steady.
Arrived at the top in Borgata Ruata, I stopped for a snack break and for getting fresh water from the fountain. Took some photos of the view from the terrace above (in front of the Gran Truc restaurant), towards the valley and Pinerolo below.
Once rested, dressed up for the downhill and back to Pinerolo.
