It's the "Bisoire" not Bijoire. Finally, at 50 years old, I find this forest road between Eloyes and Tendon quite difficult. To get to the top without putting your foot down, it's very important to find the right pace from the start. Setting off calmly without looking for a time is vital, in my case.

It's the "Bisoire" not Bijoire. Finally, at 50 years old, I find this forest road between Eloyes and Tendon quite difficult. To get to the top without putting your foot down, it's very important to find the right pace from the start. Setting off calmly without looking for a time is vital, in my case. It's best to be in good physical condition and to have trained well for the mountains before tackling them. Otherwise, it's a pleasure to reach the summit and then tackle the Col de Bonne Fontaine (which seems almost easy once you've crossed the Bisoire).

C'est la "Bisoire" et non pas Bijoire. Enfin, à 50 ans passés je trouve cette route en forêt qui relie Eloyes et Tendon assez difficile. Pour arriver au dessus sans mettre pied à terre, il est très important de trouver dès le début le bon rythme. Partir tranquille sans chercher le chrono est vital, pour mon cas. Une bonne condition physique, un bon entrainement à la montagne, est préférable avant de s'y attaquer. Sinon un plaisir que d'arriver au sommet, puis d'attaquer ensuite le col de Bonne Fontaine (qui semble presque facile après avoir franchit la Bisoire).

The climb took place after the head of the vats...the jewellery shop, it's bcq easier...
Despite passages at 10 or 11％ and an average of 7.8％ it's quite rolling and pleasant.
I found this pass very nice because it's not very busy.

Montée réalisée après la tête des cuveaux...la bijoire, c'est bcq plus facile...
Malgré des passages à 10 ou 11％ et une moyenne à 7,8％ c'est plutôt assez roulant et agréable
J'ai trouvé ce col très sympa car très peu fréquenté
