Last major climb of a tour that was no less major: alcay, cayolar de Bosmendieta, port de Larrau in return, col de Bagarguy then Sensibile, Mendive, Behorleguy, Aphanise, Ahuski, alcay(4100d+for 112km) A rainy start to this 5/09, but then the weather improved to grey with no rain, perfect for riding without getting too hot or too cold.

Last major climb of a tour that was no less major: alcay, cayolar de Bosmendieta, port de Larrau in return, col de Bagarguy then Sensibile, Mendive, Behorleguy, Aphanise, Ahuski, alcay(4100d+for 112km)
A rainy start to this 5/09, but then the weather improved to grey with no rain, perfect for riding without getting too hot or too cold.
A ride that makes me want to explore all the micro-roads that dot the sector between Arneguy and Alcay, the area is vast and rich and can be extended on the Spanish side.
Not bad to have light Gravel tyres for junctions that penetrate a little more into the already wild regions of the sector.
The holidays are coming to an end under buckets of water, but we've had a great time and we can't wait for next year!
In the meantime, we'll be back on our favourite roads between Ariege, Corbières and Montagne Noire

Dernière montée majeurissime d un tour qui ne le fut pas moins d alcay, cayolar de Bosmendieta, port de Larrau en A/R, col de Bagarguy puis Sensibile, Mendive, Behorleguy, Aphanise, Ahuski, alcay(4100d+pour 112km)
Début de ce 5/09 sous la pluie mais amélioration par la suite gris sans pluie parfait pour rouler sans avoir trop chaud ni trop froid
Un tour qui me donne envie d explorer toute les micro routes qui parsèment le secteur entre Arneguy et Alcay, la zone est vaste et riche et peut être agrandi cote espagnol
Pas deconnant d avoir des pneu light Gravel pour des jonctions qui pénètrent un peu plus les contrées déjà sauvages du secteur
Les vacances se terminent sous des seaux d eaux mais on a bien profité et il nous tarde l an prochain
En attendant on va retrouver nos routes de prédilection entre Ariege, Corbières et Montagne Noire
