This is me (left) and my brother on the Passo Pordoi. We climbed it from both sides. We also did a few other passes during our 9-day stay in the Dolomites but the Pordoi was definitely the toughest! For next year we plan to do some French Alps.

Wow - and you did it all blindfolded, or are you in the Federal Witness Protection Program? ;)

Seriously, that must have been a fantastic experience!!! Your bro did it on a mountain bike? Wow! :)

Bac, yep my brother rides a mountainbike. He tends to take it very easy and likes the lower gears on mtb's. That's also why I had to wait for 25 mins at the top before he arrived, there are as many riding-styles as there are bikers I guess!
