Hello all,

I hope you all got back to London okay.

I found the info on the tour Roman was talking about.
See http://www.alpenbrevet.ch or http://www.alpenbrevet.ch/2008/index.php?pid=seite_strecken
the website is still in German only but they are planning to add the English version over the next days

Looks tough enough to even challenge the A team:

3 different routes for road bikes:

Silver: three alpine passes, 131 km, 3075 meters altitude difference
Gold: four alpine passes, 172 km, 5294 meters altitude difference
Platinum: five alpine passes, 276 km, 7031 meters altitude difference

it takes place on August 9th.

If anybody is interested, I can investigate more (cost of getting there etc). Email me at philippe@swissmail.com

Please let me know

Best regards

Philippe
