Col de Parquetout via the Col d’Ornon

For the first time since the begining of May we have not had any guests in so I took the oportunutity to try out a new route for our 2010 holidays. This 90 km ride takes in the Col d’Ornon first and then onto the Col de Parquetout (as used in the Marco Pantani Cycling Sportive in August) I followed the Col de Parquetout over the top and towards La Mure before taking a right and retracing my steps back over the Col d’Ornon and Bourg d’Oisans (or Col d’Ormon as it seems to be called on the other side) .  With effectively 3 cols this was a long and tough ride.
