Not the best picture. Definitely the best scenery I have ever cycled through ever.
Sorry, bad form as it's not just my bike (I didn't take one of the bike by itself, oops), but this modest col still amuses me... higher than the highest mountain in England, yet it only merits a bodge-job painted sign. I'll be rather sad if they do ever replace it with a posh shiny one. Oh, the other pleasing thing was it definitively said "Fermé" on both sides of the col, but being a cyclist and knowing the road well enough, I ignored it.

Perhaps if they ever get round to replacing the sign (no guarantees that'll ever happen!), they will let you have the old sign, Brian, for posterity.
As for ignoring the 'Fermé' signs, us cyclists are good at that .
Remembered to take one sans moi yesterday. Just wish I'd kept count of how many times I've been up this little hill.

It's a brilliant ride up there.
About 90 minutes to the top from my front door 😃
