With its 48 bends, the ride from Prato (Prad am Stilfserjoch) to Passo dello Stelvio is one of the most iconic and popular rides in the world. It is one of those rides that should be on every cyclist's bucket list /Palmarès. After all, it is the highest mountain pass in Italy. The scenery on this ride is simply breathtaking. The pain of climbing up is accompanied by views of huge glaciers working their way down the mountains. The views on this ride are simply the best painkiller one can get. And if you like hairpins, you are in for a treat. Few rides have more hairpins than this iconic ride.

Take your indoor cycling to the next level and bike the world at your own speed:
Dive into an immersive indoor cycling experience with our training app ’Open Road’ for PC. The app contains ‘digital twins’ of real rides from all over the world. Using professionally produced cycling videos and the latest technologies in GPS and road surveying equipment, Open Road makes it possible for you to ride a perfect digital twin of the real ride. Open Road will realistically set the speed of the video at the speed you would ride if it was a real ride. With a smart trainer, you will feel the same resistance from gravity as on the actual ride. In short, Open Road offers you a much more realistic and immersive cycling experience compared to our ride-along videos on YouTube. The app is compatible with all ANT+ cycling devices, including smart trainers, power meters, and speed sensors. Athletes with spinning and exercise bikes without ANT+ compatibility can control the speed manually and enjoy riding with all the important cycling data displayed during the training session.

Just add music:
Most cyclists would agree that the ride to Col du Tourmalet is outstanding. But when it comes to music, opinions are very mixed. This is why we haven’t added music and why we recommend adding your favorite music to the ride. It is quite simple. Mute YouTube and open a browser window. Find a site that offers music (Spotify, YouTube, etc…), pick the music you like, and enjoy the ride... The original sound of the ride has been left out. This is because the natural sound of the surroundings is drowned by noise from passing cars, vibrations from the road, wind, and the rider's breathing.
