We were sure glad to have fenders on today's ride. Plenty of manure on the road!

Funny how we look for the same amenities. It seems to have undergone some changes; there are signs for room numbers but many rooms don’t seem to exist anymore. The sign on the stairs says rooms 10 to 16 are on the second floor, but there are now only two rooms and a large private area where presumably the current owners or employees live. There’s an adjacent annex too.

Your 2015 tour is what inspired our 2017 ride from Geneva to Cannes. I really wanted to loop back north again like you did but we only had 3 weeks. As for weather, there’s not much you can do about it.

It's too bad you got such poor weather for the Col de Saises. Here's how it looked on a fairer day' https://www.cycleblaze.com/journals/geneva2015/to-la-clusaz-col-des-saisies-col-des-aravis/

Looks pretty close but I didn’t look for the leaves. Everything was pretty lush!

It was. Al managed on 32 mm tires but bigger is better. I had 38s.

This one was only hanging together because of the reinforcing steel across the crack.
