In her experience report, she talks about battery capacities and the reactions of other Alpine crossers.
65 kilometres and 1000 metres in altitude are the key figures for the second day. No long descent is to be expected this time. Once again I cycle effortlessly. The difficulty lies more in keeping up with the group. The bike takes off like a racehorse. I just can't manage a smooth pedal stroke. I'm quickly too fast on the e-bike. At the day's destination, the battery is still a good 1/3 full. So there would have been more metres in altitude. From then on, I knew that I would easily reach Lake Garda on my e-bike.
