Mont Ventoux
Two days on the mountain.Day 1 drop Minnie 20km from the summit
direction from Sault, I drive to summit @ 1920m asl, run down to 1450m
asl (6.5km) escort her back to the summit taking video and photo of
her ascent...forgot about my own climb..very hard getting ahead to
take the good shit, then to surge back onto her wheel again. Almost a
race for 40 min, 70 in total.
Today roles reversed. I ride to summit from 1500m asl (6km) in time
trial mode, could not hold 15kph in the last 2km when the gradient hit
8-9%. Minnie ran up while I wait at the top.
Spent last night below the tree line at a pique nique rest area in
the hotel Kangoo.
