Enjoy! I remember rolling Galibier then up to Huez village and down Col de Sarenne in one day - I needed a big lunch in between. This bra was struggling on turn 19 of 21, must’ve been cramp. ????

Yes the last climb was tough especially since there was nothing open to buy proper snacks. Ended up eating fruit purées, a sneakers and haribots up Galibier and then a tiny panini on the way back before tackling Alpe d’huez. I was really not expecting this heat at the end though. It was tough but I expected tough ;)

The infamous 21 turns of alpe d'huez. Alpe du zwift is a walk in the park compared to this... especially when you do it with 4 hours / 107km / 2000+m in your legs, and that the temperatures go up to 30°

Yep. Now you know where the name of that infamous trail originates from. And don't be fooled into thinking they don't wander around this time of year. I mostly see cobras in winter. More so than summer. That's a big fella. Yellow mamba as far as the venom is concerned.
