Day 5 - Valberg

As we didn't have any decent internet connection yesterday, we had to wait to post an update of yesterday till this evening. So here we go:

We woke up in Briancon with a clear blue sky. So weather conditions did change completely over night. After we good breakfast we mounted the bikes and left around 9h30 for a ride of "only 130 kms". Although the amount of kms to cover were minor compared to previous days, it still took us till +/- 17h to get our new destination, Valberg.

Yesterday was definitely the best till then, taking into account the excellent weather, but also the region we covered was fantastic. A lot of green valleys, magnificent views, great mountains to cross. On the latter, we had to go over the Col d'Izoard :

The Col de Vars :

And finally, the Col de Cayolle :

Last, a nice picture of the valley we went thru when going from the Col d'Izoard to the Col de Vars:

We had a great day, but were tired of the many mountains that we had to cross. We closed the days with some food (could have been better) and some drinks. Again :)
