I wanted to do the route that was part of the 15th stage of the tdf 2023, the start is devastating, 1.6km with peaks at 17% which when they drop to 12% you feel like you are almost on level ground. After this first bit the rest is quiet and seems easy although there are still some spots at 11%. The view at the finish is solendid. I recommend having at least a 32 back
Ho voluto fare il percorso che è stato parte della 15° tappa del tdf 2023, l'inizio è devastante, 1,6km con punte del 17% che quando scendono al 12% ti sembra di essere quasi in piano. Fatto questo primo pezzo il resto è tranquillo e sembra facile anche se ci sono ancora dei punti all'11%. La vista all'arrivo è solendida. Consiglio di avere almeno un 32 posteriore
The ClimbFinder profile is light compared to the reality of the terrain, the beginning ( La cote des Amerands ) is much more difficult.
I noticed this with the GPS but also with my legs.
The Bettex climb has already been ridden by the TDF riders and also by the Dauphiné Libéré.
It was a nice climb with a very steep start, a good recovery section and a difficult finish, all in a great landscape.
Be careful because at the top of the Cote des Amerands you have to cut the road from St Gervais to Megève and it is very hot.
Have a good ride and be careful.
Le profil ClimbFinder est léger par rapport à la réalité du terrain, le début ( La cote des Amerands ) est beaucoup plus ardu.
Je l'ai constaté avec le GPS mais aussi avec mes jambes.
L'ascension du Bettex a déjà été empruntée par les coureurs du TDF et aussi du Dauphiné Libéré.
Belle ascension avec un début très raide, une bonne portion de récupération et un final difficile, le tout dans des paysages grandioses.
Attention prudence car au sommet de la cote des Amerands il faut couper la route qui relie St Gervais à Megève et c'est très chaud.
Bonne route et prudence.
I've changed the start of the climb slightly, so that it's more in line with reality! Thanks for the comments!
J'ai légèrement modifié le début de la montée, pour qu'il soit plus conforme à la réalité ! Merci pour les commentaires !
