June 19, 2023,Rit rondom het meer

Beautiful ride with plenty of opportunities for a break and some photos. Some pieces were impressively beautiful to do, and some spicy (18% passed 1x). Lighting necessary with 2 tunnels on the way. Temperature was higher than expected (33 degrees around 2 p.m.)

A variation is possible by taking the Pontis pass - after crossing the Ubaye and possibilities of going towards Savignes le Lac without going through Embrun. A …
