The road (2)
2024年7月20日, スイス ⋅ ☀️ 29 °C
Yes. Pretty good day. I wasn’t aware I came through Gstaad. I don’t know why it is a tourist attraction, but it is. A bit busy therefore. Otherwise the Col du Pillon was a road mainly populated byもっと詳しく

Restdays are just that. Do nothing. I varied laying in bed with a short walk through town in between the rainy spells. I got a bit of a view of the mountains I will be heading into tomorrow andもっと詳しく
And up we go

There we go again. Into the real mountains now. Starting with the Col de la Forclaz. I overtook a cyclist halfway up the climb. You know, one without luggage on the bike… well, I guess it says moreもっと詳しく
Mt. Blanc is quite white
2024年7月22日, フランス ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Somewhere over there the Mt, Blanc is hiding.
Just got over the Col du Montets and now it is downhill to Chamonix. I am pretty much riding straight towards the Mt. Blanc, but the peak has beenもっと詳しく
Spotted!

There it is.
It was quite challenging to also keep an eye on the road. It is pretty intimidating riding along these high peaks and the glacier. Nice.
My nek hurts a bit now. 😜
Home sweet home

After a really nice day of cycling I stopped just shy of 100km.
This is one reason
2024年7月23日, フランス ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
The views from the top usually are better than from the valley.
Why
2024年7月23日, フランス ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
I have been overtaken by approximately €100.000,- worth of bikes and I am wondering why people want to go up here. Well, I did too, but I seriously doubt my sanity.
Especially with all the gear Iもっと詳しく

Some people decorated the road up here.
I found a bit of Norway today

Funny how quickly a landscape can change.
When I came down the Madeleine yesterday, the valley was boring, industrial and stank (France stinks anyway with seemingly everybody driving oldもっと詳しく
The highest

Contrary to what some people believe the Col d’Iseran actually is the highest paved mountain pass in Europe. And I went over it 💪🏻.
This falls in the category “Why” again, but I do like myもっと詳しく
We meet again
2024年7月25日, フランス ⋅ ☀️ 16 °C
I almost completed a full lap around the Mont Blanc. From the Petit St. Bernard I could finally see the top again. No clouds this time.
The last one
2024年7月25日, フランス ⋅ ☀️ 17 °C
And going over the Petit St. Bernard I finished all the uphill riding for this trip. Just a short downhill to go to Aosta where this bike trip will end.
Pink is okay

Pink roads, pink signs, pink bike.
Destination

That’s that. I’ve cycled through Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, France, Switzerland en finished in Italy. A little over 1300km and 16.000m of climbing.
Very enjoyable. Not everyもっと詳しく
