Adventures on my bike

Emulating a ride I did ten years ago, this was a 200-mile bike ride along the south coast of West Sussex, East Sussex and Kent. From Littlehampton to Rye
This ride to from La Chambre in the Maurienne valley to the famous Col de la Madeleine, turned out to be more of an ordeal than expected when I found the first way up blocked.
An amazing bike ride in the Jura mountains featuring the magnificent Viaduc de Cize Bolozon
A forty-mile bike ride in the Jura, looping from Izernore, via Col du Sentier, Lac Genin and back though Oyonnax.
A bike ride from Briançon to the spectacular Pré de Madame Carle at the end of the Vallée de la Vallouise, returning via Puy-Saint-Vincent.
A short and very steep part gravel ride out of Briançon to visit La Croix de Toulouse, featuring spectacular views over the city and the Guisane valley
A wonderful part-gravel loop from Bourg-Saint-Maurice including Cormet d’Arêches, Col du Pré and Cormet de Roselend, featuring lakes, drone shots and sheep.
A bike ride up the Valgrisenche valley around Lake Beauregard and the tiny chapel, Cappella di Chatelet, returning by a lakeside gravel path. I discovered much more of the history after the ride.
A beautiful bike ride from Morgex, Italy, up the Val Ferret valley towards the Swiss border, with amazing views of the glaciers of the Mont Blanc massif.
