So a race blog is a great idea when there are races on... In winter though, not so much.
Anyway, just to keep in the habit of updating this thing, im throwing up a few pictures of the epic (32km, 1670m vertical) spin I was on the other day. Big thanks to Chris for his perfect guiding (this time :D!) and Jean.
Not enough pictures to tell the full story, but some nice shots of the biggest climb and one of the descent which was oh so worth it!

| Two Frenchmen in the middle of nowhere, but where are they going? |
 |
| To the Col de St Michel of course, you can see the trail in the top right corner. A push up for the Irish, but a pedal for the French... |
 |
| Good view of where we came from, in fact we cycled up or down nearly every mountain in this picture, bar the ones in the distance of course! |
 |
| The view from the other side of the mountain, with the first snow of the winter in the distance. |
 |
| The best part of the day! Half way down the descent to the village of Coaraze, which leads directly into a second descent down the left flank of the village. By the way it's not perspective, Chris really is a giant. |
 |
| The view from further down, Coaraze dead center, the descent goes from the top of the picture to the bottom, amazing spin, amazing day. |
