I took a couple of weeks off in May 06 to do a spot of road biking. I wanted to see if it is really that hard (Yes, it is) and to do some sight seeing in France (jolly big country, you know). So I cycled mostly in the Vercors with with Phil from Gastrobiking (he is part mountain goat, part homing pigeon and a damn fine host) with a wee bit of Italy (watching the Giro) and then some Provencal sunshine. I'm afraid there follow some photos of men in lycra. You've been warned.
How about this for a vineyard? 83 hectares and that is Mont Ventoux (tribute to Tom Simpson, Tour de France legends and all that) with a chalky white top in the far distance. It's a long way up to the top of the mountain (21km at ~10% slope).
