Manche a Med
Mt Ventoux
Foolishly thought why not, a lot of k’s in the legs meant the ascent was harder than I thought. The first 15 k’s from Bedoin to the chalet was at 9% and after that the trip to the summit flattened out to a mere 6%. From the time I hired the bike in Bedoin for the 22 k’s to the top I didn’t use the brakes and for the reverse I didn’ thave to pedal. It is just relentless uphill. Can now be ticked off and left :-). Marie was very happy to be the support crew and rest her legs !!
