Last Day to Ride

Slug here again. Today was our last chance to ride before heading back to reality on Sunday. The weather was iffy with some morning rain, but by the time we set off it had cleared a bit. I accompanied Junk and Squirrel to the base of the 12 km Col de Ornon climb, at which point I turned back and headed to 1 last climb up the Alpe d'Huez. Junk and Squirrel did the Col de Ornon and then also headed back to the Alpe d'Huez. Not happy to climb it once today, Junk had to display one last bit of insanity and climbed it twice! The 2nd time in the rain!

We started our adventure last Sunday with the Alpe, and today we turned the last page with the Alpe. It was fitting to bookend the trip with ascents up the most famous Tour de France climb of them all.
