Fun recreation during my holidays ... Well, I never got to ride it in a row, we were either too early in the season (April or so) or in October, November, when you have already lost some of your (for me little) climbing condition.

Fun recreation during my holidays ... Well, I never got to ride it in a row, we were either too early in the season (April or so) or in October, November, when you have already lost some of your (for me little) climbing condition. Nice of the climb is the fantastic landscape and the many 'hooking points' so that you always have a next goal. Disadvantage is that it is somewhat irregular, with the hardest in the beginning, and almost all day in the sun. Reward: the descent when you return to VGR: except for a few sections between houses, you can follow an ideal line.
