Did it

Just got back from touring holiday in France where the main aim for me was to cycle up the alpe d'huez which I managed non stop in 1:05 (TDF finish line :biggrin:) even though I did get lost at the top because the street market was on and had to take a bit of a detour. ;)
Well chuffed but for anyone thinking of tackling it, its not has hard as I have imagined it to be. The first few corners are tough, then its just a slog all the way up to the top.

Good stuff!

In '86 Hinault did it in 48 minutes, only he didn't have to scoot around the street market. So I reckon that's a pretty good time.
