The first day of the ride, from Lake Evian to Talloires. 183KM and 2800m of climbing. A big day to start the tour, but truly amazing!
We climbed to the top of the Colombiere a massive 1670m above sea level. It was a long long climb of 18 kilometres, a long drag, with a crazy kick in the last kilometer that caught a lot of us out.
Here’s a wicked stop motion film of the ascent of the Colombiere
