Is this a wind up? Did this take place in 2020? Not 2019 or something!

We had a plant in Verres, just down the valley from Mt.Blanc. I worked there on a few jobs. Driving on the smaller roads is amazing.
I was in to Mini's in those days and one of the Italian engineers I was working with, had an original Fiat 500 Arbath that he took me out in. Fantastic driving but very very scary for people from the flatlands..... Roads heaved out of the side of the mountains, millions of tons of rock just hanging over the road, almost like a mousetrap....
Amazing scenery, thanks for sharing.

That was a good read, would love to do something like this, but the wife just has no interest.

Great post. Nothing beats a road trip. Preferably in someone else’s wheels.
