Pondering other Sportives to do for 2009

I quite fancy bagging one or two more Sportives in mainland Europe in 2009. I’m already signed up to do L’Etape, so I’m looking for ideas.

Just found these pair, that look tasty:

Gran Fondo Marco Pantani
Time Megève Mont-Blanc

Both take in some killer climbs – GF Marco Pantani, for example, takes in the Gavia and the Mortirolo (which I’ve read some nasty stuff about. Average of 13% for starters, 18% sections, and an overall average of 10%. Eeek!).

Still, plenty of time to decide. I should get out on the bike.
