Adventures on my bike
Just been out for a quick spin on this lovely warm evening.
I scored another victory over Yalding Hill by smashing my previous ascent time by almost 30 seconds!

Edit (14/07/2014): Since this post, have now taken another 30 seconds off:
A tough cycling climb to le Col du Grand Colombier from Culoz, at the south-eastern tip of the Jura mountains
A bike ride from Barcelonnette to the ski station at Pra-Loup, famous as a Tour-de-France stage finish, with wonderful views over the valleys
A challenging cycling loop via Col de la Cayolle, Col des Champs and Col d'Allos. 3400m of climbing over 122km.
Another wonderful bike ride in the Parc Naturel Régional du Haut-Jura, climbing the Col de Menthières and descending via Chézery-Forens
A bike ride around Col de Bérentin, in the Jura mountains, including ten more cols on the route, and a spectacular view of Lac de Sylans
