Wish me luck!

Here we go - attempting to climb the highest road in Europe, the highest I'll have ever climbed on a bike! The Bonette is even higher than the Col d'Iseran, which is the highest pass whereas the Bonette is the highest road. No idea of the difference - can anyone enlighten??

A murky day and much cooler start + windy. Let's hope that's a tailwind then!

Am carrying so many clothes! 2 long-sleeved thermals, windproof gilet, waterproof, Rainlegs, waterproof overshoes, liner gloves, winter gloves...! Could well be snow at the top :-))

Cheery-bye for now!

    I have everything crossed for you . Sounds a pretty tough day. The weather needs to be kinder as the day wakes up! We have a similar dull day at the moment.
    Looking forward to your blog tonight.
    Lots of love and hugs

    Not sure you have entirely grasped the idea of carrying too many clothes!
    The Bonette sounds like a monster, go slay it! Good luck!
