I agree, postimage.org is the way to go these days.

Flickr doesn't let me zoom in on the mobile. 🙁

Looks like an interestingg pic, too!

If you are running the Flickr app on Android then an add-in will let you share.

Panzersperre (literally Tank Stopper) at Reschen Pass. Part of the Alpine Wall built by Mussolini to stop Hitler attaching from the north.

The area and the pass has lots of bunkers, lookouts, stores and buildings.

First article in the mag reports on that area.... Go there about once a month or so.

Its a really simple way of posting an image on here from a mobile or PC and it can be viewed by anyone, no app needed etc.

Just ordered the book mentioned in the article from the German Amazon site. Really liked the look of it all.

It's a great area to ride. I've been suggesting Vinschgau on here as a destination for some time.

As said, we go there every month or so as it's only a the hour cruise through the Alps from Munich.

The area has seen an explosion in its popularity over the last three to four years. Due to that there are some of the old classic trails that are now closed to bikes, but on the plus side there are more bike specific trails (although I prefer more natural rides) being built.

My mate has that book and it's good. However, it is in German (I think).

Yes, ta, knew it's in German. Should be able to translate as needed.

Do you have any rides from the book that are must do's?

Thanks.
