Good man Simon, that should make things a lot easier for you, especially keeping an eye on what's going on here :wink:

Don`t know how much coverage of the Tour de France you get (blanket here of course) but the Tour is covering the route described above today, so you may get a glimpse of what you`re missing - in this case, torrential rain :(

OK, another one to add to my list of "if you only ride one col" :roll: . Had a bit of a ride around the other day and went over Cime de Bonnet - highest in Europe at 2802 metres (9100 feet). Felt like you could touch the clouds and the ride down to Barcellonette was spectacularly beautiful.

Pics on the Flickr site as usual. Cheers all.
