Due to mainly ongoing problems with blogger, poor internet connections and having time available (usually don't get back from dinner until after 10pm), have not been able update my blog on a daily basis. However, successfully uploaded "Day 4" yesterday and everything worked as expected so hopefully will catch up. In the meantime, the following is a brief update.
In the 11 days of riding up to and including the 22 July 2017, I have ridden 1,041.1 kilometres and climbed 25,511 vertical metres (doesn't include the ride to Italy the day before the tour started).
While we have climbed many mountains, the well known ones that have been conquered are the following:
- Mont Ventoux;
- Col de la Bonette;
- Col du Vars;
- Col de l'Izoard;
- Col du Lauteret;
- Col du Galiber;
- Col de Telegraphe;
- Col de la Croix de Fer;
- Alpe d'Huez.
We completed the last two mentioned mountains on Saturday. A couple of shots of the completion of these rides is recorded below. Others will be included in my blog updates.
