Ridden as a descent from Ribes. Perfect tarmac but as a climb it seems really boring to me. Lots of long straights.... read more

Ridden as a descent from Ribes. Perfect tarmac but as a climb it seems really boring to me. Lots of long straights.

Als afdaling gereden vanuit Ribes. Perfect asfalt maar als klim lijkt het me echt heel erg saai. Veel lange rechte stukken.

I only did this as a descent after the climb from Ribes. This is a very good road to do as a descent! Very nice view when you go down, I think in the farthest distance even the first Alps mountains to see.

Deze alleen gedaan als afdaling na klim vanuit Ribes. Dit is een hele goede weg om te doen als afdaling! Erg mooi uitzicht als je naar beneden gaat, ik meen in de verste verte zelfs de eerste Alpen bergen te zien.
