Nope, but a good choice as one of the best passes are up the valley from the end of lake Como.

You're on the right continent. Hint: the AAA tour book for this country used that photo. This one happens to be mine, but there are only so many angles you can take it from.

Got to drive there, not ride (what a shame).

If I'm correct, do get an all expense paid visit including bike rental?

I wasn't complaining! Just noting predictability. I'm really envious of those of you who took the pictures yourself.

My desktop is a negative art-image of a skull with sunglasses and Airhead jugs sticking out it's sides. It's on an old thread somewhere.
I know--I was just joshin' too. I think the photos are one of my favorite parts of the forum. I'm always disappointed to open a ride report without pictures. Even the "post your mug" and "pic of your K-bike" are fun forums. I just saw that skull/boxer image the other day in an older desktops thread. It is cool. My favorite desktop, though, was username's unicornscape. Maybe he'll reintroduce it here.
