Went for a spin to Tsuru Pass with some super cool crew from Half Fast on Sunday. It was a great route and thanks to Francois for organizing it. It was my first time to climb Tsuru and I'll definitely be going back. We had a challenging climb, a fast descent and then some hairy moments when the car travelling directly in front of me lost it's left rear wheel! The wheel went careening off into a nearby field, the drum brake housing went in the opposite direction and came to rest in the middle of the opposite lane. The car itself came to a grinding halt as the axle hit the road. Thankfully no-one was hurt and after checking that the driver was okay we continued on.
I ended up taking this route home and totally recommend it, not much traffic and a few charming lost-in-time villages. Route:
