Classic Climbs 20th – 27th August

Classic Climbs of the Alps 2011
The weather finally improved for another “Classic Climbs of the Alps” week, with the sun on ours backs everyday we put lots of milages into our tyres. Gail and Jason were up for any climb and they had their known little ‘King of the Mountains” battle going on. This was Gail’s second visit to the French Alps all the ways from Canada.

During the week they did the following climbs:

Montagny, Pralognan-la-Vanoise, Champagny-en-Vanoise, Cormet de Roselend, Col du Petit Sain-Bernard, Col du Telegraphe, Col du Galibier, Alpe d’Huez, Col de la Madeleine, Col des Saisies
