Tour de France
Tour d’Enfer Day 4 - Watching the Tour de France»
While many rested their sore legs in the hotel, Ralph and I went to watch the Tour de France at the top of Col du Galibier.
Climbs
Jura Giant: Mont Tendre (and Risel)»
Mont Tendre is the highest point in the Swiss Jura mountains at 1,679 metres.
It’s another of those great, steep, deserted Jura roads climbing through the woods - with Alps views at the top.

Many people don’t realize there is a lot more to do than just climbing the usual Tour de France route.
Cyclosportives
La Marmotte 2008 - Success!»
Along with “L’Etape du Tour” - it is probably the most famous - and one of the the most challenging - Cyclosportive in France.
174 kilometres (108 miles) and 5,000 metres vertical ascent (16,400 feet)!

Cycling the Routes des Grandes Alpes - The 2008 Tour d’Enfer»
Are you looking for a challenging cycle touring route in the Alps that visits some of the most famous Tour de France climbs?
Snow
The plan was to cycle up Col de la Joux Verte.
I knew the road was still closed, but it’s been so warm we thought with mountain bikes that we’d be OK.
