well chaps thats my alps trip finished and now looking forward to planning one next year
we spent 5 days riding those bloody lovely roads i did not want to come back, if anyone is doing it soon check out the col de vars its basically a racetrack up a mountain and its bloody brilliant. the original plan was to do switzerland after the alps then austria then germany but we got a bit lost in the moment in the alps and ended up staying there all week but it was definantly worth the sore butt and aching wrists. we done all of the route napolian but the second half from digne les bains is the best section by far!
so the first day we headed for lyon and made it that was the first day.
second day we headed for the route napolian and made it halfway down.
third day we done the second half from digne les bains to monaco hoping to ride the gp circuit but it was far to hot and stupidly busy so we headed for the col de turini
fourth to sixth day got pretty lost doing all the passes we could theres so many and most of them were awesome or had awesome roads going to or coming from them
by the sixth night we ended up staying in nancy
seventh day we headed through luxembourg then belgium stopped at brugge to get the missis some chocolates
them we had the only bit of crap weather all week so waterproofs on then headed for the train and got home last night
had a wicked time and would definantly do it again sorry if you found it boring reading though this but i just want to let everyone no it is something you must do if your a biker
oh and one last thing we done it all on 600 quid
