    Does it matter that it's not my own bike? I hired it in Bourg d'Oisans and took this near the top of Alpe d'Huez

    The views are one thing,

    But it seems most pics have been spoilt by some truly horrendous saddle bag usage.

    I agree, saddle bags are The Devil's Scrotum. I don't normally carry one but it was a hire bike and to be honest quite necessary.

    That is a fantastic picture. Love riding as the sun rises, especially once summer comes.

    Hope it's ok to post a picture of a tourer on a road forum!
