Congratulations on doing it! You might find, like I did, that the sense of achievement is addictive (as long as there are distracting views).
1 year agoWhat I remember about Col d’Aubisque (one of my favourite rides ever and a reason we’ve returned to the Pyrenees) is that it was so beautiful I didn’t want to leave.
1 year agoNice work, guys. Funny, when Sue and I were in Laruns in 2018, we were to ride Aubisque, but it was closed because of the road giving way. We heard that it was possible to get through, but only super early in the morning before the workers arrived. We decided not to take the chance and instead went the long way around and up and over Soulor. Glad you had a chance at both cols! Bravo.

1 year agoAt times like this it is our default to neither speak nor understand any French and just push on through. Looks like this was a normal French "route barre", that is, a big nothing on a bike.
1 year agoWow, that’s wonderful. Congratulations!
