I finally got to see les Gorges de la Nesque. It’s been on my list for years. An amazing gorge road that goes on and on and on..
Col du Granier
Still in the Chartreuse this ride from Entremont-le-vieux to Col du Granier bagged me another 4 cols on the way! Beautiful day. Beautiful scenery.
Col du Cucheron
After the last ride, I revisited that amazing gorge road (la route des Gorges du Guiers Mort) to get photos and find out more..
Bouchanières
This short ride to Bouchanières was the last of my cycling holiday. I got my last look at the mountain scenery and rounded my monthly climbing total to 20,000 m.
Beuil (not Saint-Léger)
Once again, a ride through the Gorges du Cians was scuppered due to roadworks. Still I got to see Beuil and the north section of the gorge I’d not seen before
Col de la Cayolle
An amazing, beautiful bike ride following the Bachelard river from Barcelonnette to the Col de la Cayolle at over 2,300 metres
Villeplane
A ride to climb high above the wonderful Gorges de Daluis..
Col de la Sinne
A breathtaking ride over the hills between the valleys of Le Tinée and Le Cians via le Col de la Sinne..
Col de Tende
An epic ride up the Roya valley and then a gravel climb to the Italian border at the Col de Tende, or the ‘Colle di Tenda’ in Italian
Col de Brouis
A ride through Breil-sur-Roya and in and out of Italy
