Welcome to the official Tour of the Alps blog! Are you wondering what it is?    
Tour of the Alps is the event that Pirelli is organizing to launch its new winter tyre, Snowcontrol Serie II.
Tour of the Alps will be a travelling adventure through which international journalists and guests will be able to experience the Winter Snowcontrol Serie II on different roads and weather conditions – perfect to test a new winter tyre.

Tour of the Alps will be a three days event: on the 13th of October guests will be divided into two groups, one group will leave from Munich with destination Milan and the other one will travel from Milan to Munich , with meeting point on the Stelvio Pass at 2.757m height on the 14th.October..
We are working on a calendar full of action and fun…and week after week we will update you on the work in progress. We are putting our effort on this…but also women, snow, five-a-side football, huskies!!

Now you are probably wondering who are the “lucky participants”?
There will be journalists of some automobile and lifestyle headings, and one official blogger for each country involved: Italy, France, Spain, Germany and Switzerland.
If you are a blogger and would like to join us, you should read the section above dedicated to you, and send us an e-mail…you could be with us on the Stelvio Pass

We hope that also those of you that won’t have the chance to be physically in the mountains, will follow us on these pages. Here you will see us working on the project, and how the project itself grows, step by step. Besides, you’ll get to know us very closely… so close that, who knows, you might even share coffee breaks with us

Well this is all for now, are you ready? We are.
Let’s gooo!
