The SP133 is the road from Levico Terme up to the Asiago Plateau it was constructed in 1915 by the Austrian army to supply their forces on the Asiago plateau. It is a great ride with fantastic views.

I throughly enjoyed watching this. My paternal grandfather was also in this area in late 1917-1919 , he was in the RGA, X1V Corps. He stayed in the Army after the war and was billeted in Sirmione on lake Garda. He helped with the clearing up

I hope to visit Asiago plateau in the near future as a pilgrimage. One of my maternal Great Grandfathers, James Bannister served there with 1/7th Worcestershire Regiment. He was awarded the Military Medal as a stretcher bearer for carrying a wounded man to safety, under heavy shell fire and over uneven terrain. It is a forgotten front unfortunately.

Thank you for watching and sharing this information. I will be going back there in May to find where the 1/5th Warwick's trenches were.

looked like a great ride and the scenery is amazing. Are you still riding the honda ctx1300 and still liking it? I am considering one to replace my 26 year old Royal Star.

Thank you for watching. I changed the CTX for a BMW K1600 4 years ago. Incidentally, I was in Ireland two weeks ago and met the current owner of the CTX. The CTX was a good bike, I just wanted something for long range touring.

I was just coming in here to check if you still had the CTX1300! That K1600 is amazing too!
