Scott Anderson commented on Loop Ride: Lacets de Montvernier

I enjoyed the write up of the construction of the Lacets. It's still a ride I'd love to make someday.

Well done, another big day! The meadows do look beautiful. We’re just starting to get the heat you’ve had (over 35 as we were riding today, and humid by rhe lakes. This really adds a whole extra level of effort! However we’re done now … and relative to your days, we’ve been done for a while :)

I think you’re right. I’ve never seen mulberries before and wouldn’t have expected a tree based on the nursery rhyme.

I think they might be mulberries.

Cool! Have to hold the steak with your fingers while you cut I guess.

Well-deserved rest day! I was wondering if you were going to catch any of the Dauphiné

They had a selection of knives with different sports, including cycling, skiing, hiking, climbing…

This climb had the distance-to-Col roadside markers every km until 6 to go. Then it was just a bicycle symbol painted on the asphalt with a number—previously there had been both. We think the “borne kilométrique” markers might removed for the winter and the highest ones not yet reinstalled for the cycling season.

Distance in the mountains is so deceiving.
