Alpine tour: Furka, Nufenen, and Gotthard passes

Headed out to Andermatt on Sunday to tackle 3 passes: Furka, Nufenen, and Gotthard. 2 of these I’d missed when I broke a crankarm bolt before [Alpenbrevet](www.alpenbrevet.ch), and I was seeking redemption.

Managed to make it this time, with the help of my [new long cranks and little chainrings](http://www.flickr.com/photos/bobman/6127586528/in/photostream). Learned that it gets plenty cold at the tops of mountains, even when it’s warm at the bottom. And also learned to never take the train north from Andermatt when you’ve got a bike–I changed my mind at the first station and rode the rest of the 1000m descent instead!
