A friend and I will be traveling from Susa Italy on the old military roads between Italy and France. Was wondering if anyone had some GPS tracks they could send our way or even any info on what is a must to see and what can be skipped. We have heard Susa Italy is a great little town with all kinds of info and they go out of there way to help you plan the passes. We will be traveling on 1200 GSA's and have 10 - 15 days of travel time. We are both very seasoned off-road riders. Any information would be awesome. We have found lots on the net but always better from people that have done it. Thanks
hi, we are also going end of july and have spoken with the bardonecchia commune to clarify exactly which roads are opena nd which are not because i have found a lot of mixed info. remember that nearly every military road that goes from italy to france are closed you also may have heard the story of the guys that were caught on a closed road, the police took their bikes away with a helicopter and the guys had to walk back to the village for several hours and pay a huge fine..... :huh:eek1:eek1 make 100% sure the roads you are going on are allowed as the signs are not always there to say the roads are closed - you just have to know!! best to phone the commune or tourist info and they will give you the correct info - it will be safer!!
i already drove some of these roads. of some i stored the gps-coordinates. if you need it, let me know it.
in 2011 we go on any military ways (ligurien, etc.), no problem look video http://www.youtube.com/user/quadproficz?feature=guide#p/u/4/MCbrnWH4GBk i recomend this book, is every year actualized http://alpen.bplaced.net/

seems this the only answer that may help, also with gps-tracks. have a look on ASSIETTA-KAMM MAIRA-STURA VARAITA-MAIRA LGKS (Nord) LGKS (Sued) view from colle delle finestre to susa:
You know that in April all the dirt roads will be closed, you can only travel the roads around end of july- mid August. The susa and bardo communes are very helpful as are the police who advise routes and have in the padt given us special permission to ride "closed" routes. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
