    You can impress your friends by telling them you went 120 mph through the Gotthard or Lotchberg Base Tunnels but unless you need to get to Brig or Bellinzona in a hurry, take the “old” routes over the mountains. An hour longer but the sights are much better than looking out the window at a concrete tube with lights flashing by. I was at the grand opening of the GBT last June and took one of the first rides. Not the way to see Switzerland so it’s now “been there, done that.”
