Col de la Croix Fry
Adventures on my bike
Riding from Thônes, in the Aravis, I once again met-up with fellow riders of the Club des Cent Cols. This time we rode to Col de la Croix Fry on a lovely sunny day…
A tough but spectacular ride in the Alps over Col de l’Arpettaz, Col des Aravis and Col de la Croix Fry on a beautiful sunny day.
A ride in the Jura mountains over Col d’Evosges and around Hauteville Lompnes, climbing another 8 cols on this very hilly 70-mile ride
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.
I climbed two sides of Mont Ventoux in one ride, first tackling the easy Sault ascent, followed by the more demanding one from Malaucene. Weather was perfect, if a little chilly..
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.
