Difficult for me to assess the place the first time, more of a winter area, luckily no huge hotel castles.

Saulire as seen from sign 13 (Loze Est slope)
In summer from the asphalt, in winter from the green slopes. The comparison can be addicting.

From here it becomes really beautiful, a cycle path to the pass. I only discovered it through the Tour de France. Today just the beginning, tomorrow the real thing.

August 2, 2023,🧨🏕️🎂🐥 Col de la Loze - abartig steile Abschnitte🥵🥵

On Jaus' 17th birthday this year, the Col de la Loze.
From Brides les Bains, Felix rode the entire climb, which was also ridden at the TDF this year. That means at altitude 590m. I only got on at the ski stadium in Courchevel. At altitude 1200m.
Nevertheless, Felix caught up with me in Meribel🤷.
The newly created cycle path …

The climb is always tough, even from the other side.....🥵
This afternoon I did it alone, it's almost mystical: me, the mountain, the climb, the effort... Beautiful!!!

This year at the Tour they wanted to make the climb easier by choosing the Courchevel side..... I went up from Meribel and almost died.... The 19% ramps are unforgiving!!! 🥵🥵🥵🥵

It was difficult to get to the ski jumps with the trucks and the overly optimistic cars. In addition, the legs were bad from the day before. After that it went great and in the end it was one of my hottest tours ever. The mountain cycle path at over 2,300m is a gift for racing cyclists.
