Advertisement Posted March 13, 2024 Posted March 13, 2024 Hi Gibbo, Take a look here In 1979. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
andybarton Posted March 13, 2024 Share #2 Posted March 13, 2024 Horribly stressful road that, though. Once is enough. 🙂 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo Posted March 13, 2024 Author Share #3 Posted March 13, 2024 I love it. I used to drive through it as quickly as I possibly could (when my parents were not watching!). Pretending to be a rally driver! Quite a driving challenge which I preferred to do in my Sud with front wheel drive. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Souvenir, souvenir...the Sud, not the road I have never driven through...I got two Ti's and a sprint in the 80's. I loved them.

andybarton Posted March 13, 2024 Share #6 Posted March 13, 2024 I always found that there was a loon in an Alfa Sud coming the other way… 😊 I walked up to the Roman fort about 18 months ago (July), and the amount of traffic coming down off the top means that larking around like Paddy Hopkirk is no longer an option. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbo Posted March 13, 2024 Author Share #7 Posted March 13, 2024 Advertisement (gone after registration) It’s very difficult to find places that are not too crowded to be able to have some fun these days! 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham (G4FUJ) Posted March 14, 2024 Share #8 Posted March 14, 2024 Not driven the pass in an Alfa, but a couple of Land Rover products and two Morgans (oh and a Rover 214 when our planned holiday trip by m/cycle to Ireland failed) Love the road, but preferably out of holiday season 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen_C Posted March 15, 2024 Share #9 Posted March 15, 2024 Rode two-up from the youth hostel on a Honda 400-4, with paniers, many years ago—causing an inadvertent wheelie on one of the steeper sections. 😀 Stephen 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
