Piemont and back

What a nice date to start maybe the last tour for this year, the Autumnal Equinox. The sun is shinning but the temperature remains single digit for the most of the morning. I've prepared a curvy track down to Italy, took the first stop at Passo di Resia.
Drove up the Offenpass, then down to Brescia  and then over the Passo Mortirolo.
The track continued over Passo Vivione, I had done this one a couple years ago found it beautiful with all it's wooden sculptures but then forgot it's name and where it was, glad I found it again.
I used a tool to calculate my route all the way to Cuneo, it avoids large roads, cities and gives preference to curvy roads, sometimes however, with challenges in between.
Cuneo is a strange city, with a large unspectacular square and a wide pedestrian zone with the interesting aspect that the sidewalk is completely covered which is very nice to go shopping while it's raining.
After visiting Cuneo it's was time to have fun in the Piedmont mountains.
The next day I drove the over the Col de la Lombarde and then Col de la Bonete.
The following day the track took me into a road block due to a rally race taking place, apparently the all day.
 Not willing to wait until 16:30 or go back all the way, I took tried to get to the road where there was nobody watching.
