COL DU GALIBIER

Wow .... What a climb! I have always wanted to conquer this one. We rode the shorter side up the Col du Lautaret then up into the snow and clouds at the top of Galibier (2600m) The descent was spectacular and a little nerve racking at times. Only a little over one car width wide and no guard rails to stop you plunging 1000m down the side of the mountain does that!
