  • First and foremost pack waterproofs as it has done nothing but rain for the last week and it iis forecast for all next as well but it's the mountains so any thing can happen weather wise.

    Yeah, saw that. Unfortunately, this is the only time of year we can go.
    Is it raining all day or just showers and is it warm rain as opposed to wet and really cold over here!

    Looks cold and wet today. The rider in the orange jacket is Miguel Indurain.
