Greetings Readers
3 HC mountain climbs
Col du Galibier
Col de la Croix-de-fer
L'Alpe D'Huez
Obviously the last Mountain will break the hearts and minds of the riders on the remaining riders left in tour.
And obviously, I love the commercial Versus is running for the Stage 17 - D'Alpe D'Huez. She is a beast. She attracts thousands to her slopes as she makes every rider on the Tour de France ride to the top of her. She can make dreams or crush them. She will punish the weak and reward the best. She is L'Alpe D'Huez. The baddest bitch of Europe.
2645 Meters - 13 Miles ascent
2067 Meters - 18 Miles ascent
1850 Meters - 8.6 Miles ascent
I got up at 4:00 AM this morning and left about 8:00 AM for work just as the riders were getting to the top of Col de la Croix-de-fer. Tonight, I will find out which riders L'Alpe D'Huez took out of the Tour de France.
I love rooting for the underdogs, but in this unique case I want L'Alpe D'Huez to take and punish every rider in the Tour de France.
Until the next time
