I received a nice comment from Colin recently. He mentioned a road up to Col de la Frasse that I had never heard of - so i got the maps out and made a plan.

Today I rode the "Routes des Ventoux" cyclosportive. Pretty epic.

The greatest cycling trip of my life. Ten great days cycling in the Alps with great company.

While everyone else took the bus back to Geneva, Doreen and I decided on one last climb - the short, but super steep Col de Pontis.

Doreen joined us in Barcelonnette last night! While some people decided to take a rest day, a few of us opted for a light climb up the beautiful Col de la Cayolle. Col de la Cayolle Summit: 2,326 metres (7,630 feet) The Climb: 29.4 kms (18.3 miles); Ascent: 1,200 metres (3,940 [...]

Col de l’Iseran is the highest pass in France. It’s a pretty awesome experience and was the favorite climb for many on the trip (the descent is pretty amazing too). Post from: Cycling Challenge Related PostsTour d’Enfer Day 8 - Doreen Climbs Bonette!Tour d’Enfer Day 7 - Col de la CayolleTour...

Day 2 - after the hail, the weather has cleared. Today we cycled Col des Aravis, Col des Saisies, and Cormet de Roselend. I rode mainly with Scott and Ralph - great company.

Here are photos and videos posted from the road during the Tour. This will get updated every day for the amusement of friends and family.

We may not be fast, but we are determined. The biggest ride of our lives by far! Wow! Yesterday, Martin and I rode La Marmotte. 175 kilometres (108 miles) and 5,000 metres vertical ascent (16,400 feet).

Today I climbed the "Classic" Col du Joly.
