The best days on a bike are when you aren't expecting what's round the next corner .
Today turned out to be just that kind of day.
Up earlyish and left Castellane with the temperature hovering on zero.
Straight on to the Route Napoleon heading north to Digne,and then my usual branch off on the D900A to route through the Clue de Barles and then the D7 up over the Col Du Fanget.
After that I was breaking with the norm and plotted a route to head through the Vercors specifically to ride over the Combe Laval balcony road.
What I wasn't expecting before that was the Col de Rousset.What an amazing road with stunning views all the way up and especially at the top.
After that the routing took me up over the Col de Carri and on through the beautiful Vercors to the Col de la Machine and the start of the Combe Laval.
Except,I was met by this ........
Bollocks.
