Bourg d’Oisans – Col du Lautaret – Col du Galibier and back

This is an epic climb pretty much starting 5 KM outside of Bourg d’Oisans and ascending firstly to the Col du Lautaret  at 2055m and 40KM and  then the Col du Galibier at 2645 metres and 49 KM. The Australian guys staying with us this week had the option of an uplift to half way to miss out some of the 800 metre tunnels but decided they wanted to ride it.  This is an out and back ride with the return leg making 49KM of La Marmotte route.
