While biking, my brake stopped working, completely. At least the one in the back. Going up a pass with a broken brake, no problem. But down. So I took it as great luck that it happened the day before the Albula and was even more lucky to find a great bike repair shop that could fix it. Tiefencastel to Surava was advised not to take the road and the people at the bike shop made that clear as well. Far too busy. I took the train. Trains are great in Switzerland and this one was specifically breathtaking. One day I will take the Albula Train the whole route. I arrived in Surava and the host really was great. Excited for the Albula Pass!
