As the tour was going right passed our hotel today we decided to ride the Lautaret then return to have a leasurly afternoon watching the race on tv.
As tour climbs go this one is very tame, it is 23 km long but averages 6% making it easy on the legs after the last few days of intense climbing.It was sunny but bitterly cold on the climb which was packed with campervans waiting for the race to go by.
After the required coffee stop on the summit it was a fast decent back to Serre Chevalier for lunch in a bar then watched the race live on tv and raced outside in time to see the peloton go past. great day!
