No, I'm sure it wouldn't work for her - and certainly on our ride through here, when we biked from Beaufort to La Clusaz in one day. If we were coming through here now though I'd want to stay in La Clusaz a second night and come out here on a slow out and back.

Enjoy Col de Saises tomorrow! It's another gorgeous one.

Maybe one of the buttercups? Could not find a good photo match.

One of the orchids. Closest I could find was pale yellow orchid, but something just doesn't look right.

I don’t think Rachael would have appreciated it. Al says he’s had enough gravel now for this trip (mostly because his bike isn’t really set up for it).

Wow. I remember looking up at this road from the pass and wondering about it.

Looks like photos of long spurred violets.

Far from the first “route barrée” or “strada chiusa” sign we’ve ignored but the first serious barrier we’ve climbed over.

It was odd. There was a long narrow salmon fillet (with cheese? on it) and a slice of smoked salmon, along with so much other stuff that the only way to eat it was to take it apart with knife and fork.

Amazing to see it that busy, but we saw the same situation on a holiday weekend down in Termoli. Maybe also though the two weeks since we were there were enough to push it into high season.
