:D What a fantastic day out in the Alps - hard as they come, but the weather and scenery cancelled out any pain. Check my final update on my Marmotte blogspot at

Plan now for next year - it is worth it!

    Great blog, doing something like that is definitely one of my long term goals. Am years from achieving that at the moment though. Well done :)

    Well done Helen!! I was there too as still buzzing from the event. Despite having done the climbs before doing them all with 1000s of riders in perfect weather was probably the best but hardest day yet that I have done depsite being a veteran of British Sportives and no stranger to climbs abroad.

    Good blog and 2nd that if you want to ride a sportive abroad you cant go far wrong by picking this event
