PICT1549Col du Telegraph lunchbreak
For many years I used to go off by myself on Alpine tours, often following the climbing routes of the Tour de France. I'd carry a fold up bike with me too. Sometimes I'd pick up Isobel from an airport such as Geneve or Nice and tour with her for a few days to, then drop her off at another airport and then I'd carry on a little bit longer..
In this shot high in the Alps on Col Du Telegraph I had just enjoyed my lunch of bagette, butter, cheese, ham and tomato. I then shut the car up and proceeded t o ride my bicycle a little way further up the mountain. It all seemed very easy for the first few minutes, then my breathing get very laboured due to the thin air. I turned around and found the descent more to my liking :)
The bike was a very good way of touring towns in the evening though.
Those days are long gone now

Nick Weall club has replied to Amelia clubNick Weall club has replied to Daniela Brocca clubI would quite often stay in Grenoble for two or three nights and use that as a base
Trips in early May often found more snow.
I am very impressed with your desire to get out on the bicycle.. My limit now will be London to Brighton in June for BHF..
Age catches up with all of us I'm afraid!!
Best wishes
