The last day of our tour begins with a hearty breakfast on the veranda of our Belle Époque guest house. We are served homemade jam and freshly squeezed grapefruit juice. This should make the last 2000 meters of altitude feasible.
From Valdeblore it goes up to the Col Saint Martin (1500m) and then down

For the "royal tour" to the Cime de la Bonette, we choose a day with "imperial weather".
After a fabulous breakfast at Valérie's, we leave. The sun ☀️ accompanies us on our first few meters. From the country road in Jausiers, a junction leads us to la Bonette. It goes uphill early - on the first 20 km

We start early in the morning in Briançon. During the city tour through the old town last evening, I learned that it is considered the highest city in Europe (1326m) and that the city wall of Briançon has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Our first destination for this day is the Col d‘Izorard

We are tired and wish to be able to leave 1 hour later. But Gaby remains determined: our goal is to arrive early. So we are ready on our bikes at 8.30 a.m. and roll comfortably out of Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne. The sun shines down on us at a fresh 8 degrees Celsius as we pedal the first 800 meters up

The highlight of the third day is the Col de l’Iseran. With a height of 2770 m, it is the highest passable mountain pass in the Alps. He has already been on the Tour de France eight times, most recently in 2019. At that time, the 19th stage had to be canceled before the descent due to bad weather and

When we leave in the morning, it is still cold and fresh. Fog blocks the view of Mont Blanc. The tour begins with about 800 vertical meters downhill. We wrap ourselves up warm and off we go. After just a few meters of altitude, the fog has disappeared and we enjoy a fantastic descent with a view and

It's finally starting: the Transalp from Lake Geneva to the Mediterranean Sea in 2021. A dream of mine for a long time.
Stop! Before we start, we traditionally go to Lake Geneva for a sea baptism. Then we set off - initially gently uphill to the Col de Jambaz. After the first descent, we come to the Tour
