Tour on the flat. Took the Ch. de l'Empereur up. Some sections have suffered in the winter but beyond le Touvet it was good apart from a ford.

A quick spin after too much walking in Italy to turn my legs.

A short text of the cross skates on the promenade at Finale Ligure in Italy. You could use normal roller skis on this section.

Tot and I decided to head up to Chamrousse for the closing weekend.

Felt ok riding out, made it to St Romain, at the base of the climb, around 12h50 (30 minutes into the ride) and thought I'd try a bit of climbing on the Route de Mont Thou despite not having recovered

In the summer it is too hot for us to do this walk/trot/run as there is little shade so we decided to try it earlier in the season.

Variation on a theme, the Rilleux le Pape tour in the reverse direction.

Le 7 Laux ski resort closed on March 29th due to storm Nelson. Lord Nelson? The perfidious Albion has struck again, ruining the locals' plans for skiing.

A tour via the Parc Miribel Jonage and Rilleux la Pape.  The first 15km are largely on cycle lanes although one runs alongside the Autoroute in places.

The Col de la Loge is nestled in the heart of the Massif Central region of France between Saint-Etienne, Clermont-Ferrand and Lyon.. . It has activities throughout the year.
