Trails: This summer's lineup...Stuttgart and Livigno

With summer already here, I'm itching to get out and ride.  Work and family have been keeping me from riding as much as I'd like, but I should have plenty of opportunities to get out and ride this summer.  I'm looking forward to the club rides, as well as any chances to get out and free ride at Potenza.  I'll probably get up to Germany and northern Italy, too.  I will have some training in mid July in Stuttgart, Germany, as such I'm looking at trails around town.  The training will last about a week, so there should be a few opportunities to get out and ride.

Three of the trails I've found that look to be fun around Stuttgart
The wife and I are planning to stop off in France on the way up to Germany, and we'll stop at points in Italy on the way back to Napoli.  We're tentatively planning on stopping at Livigno and maybe in Vicenza.  There's wonderful handmade pottery and plates near Vicenza, and Livigno's riding is some of the best in the Alps (so I've been told!).  Some great trails up there by the looks of it!
