Ventoux Report



Slug here again.

The Ventoux climb lived up to its reputation. You can see the climb for miles in every direction. We were all feeling quite good, and we will be posting VIDEO next week to prove it!!!! The climb starts steep and stays steep for almost its entire 21km distance. There were markers every km telling you the gradient for the next km, and we saw lots of 9s and 10s!!!

After cresting the desert like summit, we had a beautiful descent down the other side, and then tacked on some lovely kms through vineyards back to Carprentras. C'est magnifique!
