A little Tour de France with my Triple

[feanor]

The last one week's vacation for me this year.. desire to ride my Triple..

This time the tarket is: France.. into the nature, like I love.. this time, also in the night..

The tour started from Menton, then the Route des Grand Alpes.. Col de Castillon first, and second the (for me) most beautiful: Col de Turini

..after the Col de Turini, Col Saint-Martin and Col de la Couillole..

 

[feanor]

..arrived at Giullaumes, I rided into the Gorges de Daluis.. lovely road that goes on into the red rock..

 

[feanor]

..then I arrived to the Lac de Castillon...

..Trigance..

..and then the amazing Canyon of Verdon.. there are no words to describe it..

..I have made the Rive Gauche and the Rive Droit..

..at the end of the Rive, there's the Lac de Sainte-Croix..

 

[feanor]

..then I rided to Digne le Bains, where I decided to sleep..

..next day, I rided to Lac de Serre-Ponçon (rive Nord)..

..then Briançon.. where i retourned into the Route des Grand Alpes, starting with Col d'Izoard.. immense..

..then Col di Vars and I finished with Col de La Bonnette, the higly Europe Road (2808 m).. I have no photos about it, because the meteo was very bad.. I rided literally into the cloud, the road was very slippery, the wind so hard.. and I was alone.. very bad condition to ride.. I have taken this pictures at the end of that road..

..after that, I rided to Nizza, then Monaco and Menton, and I retourned in Italy at Ventimiglia..

 

[feanor]

..but this is not the end of my tour.. because the day after, I have made a trip in Liguria with a friend that lives there.. starting from the coast..

..then the Passo della Scoglina..

..and finally, the amazing "monte Fasce" (mountain called "Fasce")..

The pictures are all there now.
I think it may have been just a slow download at my end.

It is just a slow download. It took a bit for me to get all of the phtos.

Great photos and lovely country. Thank you very much for sharing these. That was a spectacular trip.

After looking at this post I'll burn my bike and smash my camera because I will never be able to top that ride and photo session.

Please, never stop posting.
I am always blown away by some of your sights and you save me a fortune in airfares.

Amazing photos and sounds like an equally amazing trip! I agree with Devo. PLEASE keep posting. It makes me jealous of your rides, wish I could be there.
I also love the bikes. I used to have a Speed Triple identical to your friends. Like seeing an old friend, in Italy!
