Poster: A snowHead
|
Fleetingly.... there road to nowhere section sort of forgot to mention that it actually serviced a fairly large ski resort, a major european observatory and a high altitude training centre. Usual Top Gear misdirection but fun none the less. If you use google maps with the streetview on you can see exactly where they stopped. I went there ages ago, fab place with a really different vibe. Will go back when the sprogs are old enough to handle the apres-ski ... 25 maybe!

Have a mate who lives in Grenada and he only ever goes up there mid week. Reckons the queues and on-piste crowding just make it no fun at all at week-ends and holidays.

They're currently half way through today's stage which has a cat 3 and two cat 2 climbs. They've got one cat 2 left to do today which is the Col de Manse which is up by the wee resort of Orcières-Merlette IIRC.
