Climbing up a rugged snow lined mountain

A bit of a hazard on the way!

I got up and into some work nice and early after yesterday's rest day off the bike, this had me finished early and set to get back out in the mountains for the best part of what was looking to be a stunning day.
Going through my handy cycling route guide (an excellent production provided free by the Tourist Information centre), I thought I'd put together a combination of a couple of the routes to cover a bit of extra ground.
A very good choice in the end that had me riding up a very rugged and narrow mountain road, climbing up the Col de Sarenne, from here it was a descent into Alpe d Huez on a snow lined road, breathtaking views on the way. I got to Alpe d Huez and had flat tyre which was easily fixed, then it was a coffee and baguette at the Indianna Bar & Cafe at the top of Alpe D Huez.
Next was a the exhilarating descent down the hairpins as far as la Garde-en-Oisans where I turned off to follow another mountain hugging road through Auris-en-Oisans, another spectacular road, a bit of climbing (yet again) but well worth it, passing through little tunnels on the way.
It was then a descent onto the main road back to Bourg d Oisans, stopping for another coffee en route back to Allemont.
A very nice 90km loop for the day, another great adventure in the French Alps.
