Thanks for sharing, great photos. Looks like you had a great time in spite of the weather and of course you had the best bike to ride the pass on. Cheers...
Great time, somethings like a VIM
No problem, the tires were new (or quite) and I have down flat , perfect ! But I was very cool and prudent.
Great report and images

Surely 7/8 of July in 2018
Did the Stella Alpina in 1985, `86, `87 and `88.
In `85 to the top on a CB 900 Bol D`or with package
At that time there was a weather station at the top, that´s where this picture is taken from:
In `86, `87 and `88 to around 1800 m. on respectively CB 900 Bol D`or, Kawasaki Z 750 B2 parallel twin and CB 750 K7 (the one I still have)... without package, but now with passenger.
Was the road better when there was still the refuge at the top ?
Beautiful scenery and great roads. Looks like a fantastic ride. Lots of riders, too.
Thanks for sharing this.

No, it was quite rocky and muddy with snowmelt running down the road. In fact, the second year on the CB 900, I got a bulge in one of the exhaust front pipes from a rock
At that time you could only go to the top every fourth or fifth year, I was told by Mario Artusio, the founder of the meeting, the other years there was to much snow. Seemed to be right, as it was only the first of the four times I got to the top. Don´t know how that is today, but the weather has changed, I can see, back then we had the finest sunny weather all four years.
