Two of seven guests today took part in the Marco Pantani Cycling Sportive. As we are based in Bourg d’Oisans we took them up to Les Deux Alpes for the start at 8AM. John and Simon had a long hot day in the saddle with temperatures hitting 39 C. The route was slightly changed this year missing out the climb of Villard Reculas up to Alpe d’Huez and instead cycling up to bend 16 of Alpe d’Huez before traversing across to Freney d’Oisans and then the final clim of Les Deux Alpes.
The rest of us cycled up to St Christophe en Oisans and La Barade and back !
