Some friends from our Mountainbike-Team we´ve been planing to ride up there this year again - from 500 m above sea-level to 1.730 m.
The weather-forecast has been really bad - but early morning 8.00 a.m. three of us - Guido, Wolfi and me - we risked it and we started to climb up in light rain.
During our fantastic ride through forests, alps and rocks we had almost all parts of weather-possibilities: rain, sun, clouds, fog and some wind.... - but we reached the alp after 3 hours.
At the moment of our arrival the folcloric-festival should get to be started - but we only saw some guys closing down all the outdoor-party-places. - The weather-conditions turned really bad - and the first thunders and lightnings started....
But indoor! - The party moved into the alpine hut - and we had some beers and the traditional kermis-soup!
Two hours later - it was raining cats and dogs! - we climbed on our bikes again and did a two minutes ride down to the next alpine hut. - There we had more beer (what mountainbikers call an isotonic drink....) - and a typical folcloric music-band has been playing for us ("Misemamoradi" - a folcoric song for cyclists....) - see picture.
After all - 4 hours after arrival to the top - we started the downhill! - One of the craziest ever in my life! - Raining even more cats and dogs - we did a 1.200 m-altitude-downhill in real pure rain!!!
Wet like fishes - but totally happy about this fantastic day with lots of natures and lots of fun - we reached home safely!
