ultyguy - the road is clear to the top, the bar is open (the crêpe aux myrtilles was great), but the cross-country ski trails are still up, one runs on the road over to Ranfolly/Morzine. You have to ride back to Samoëns.

UK time-trialling, this is a rider in the Maidenhead & District CC 15-mile event on a circuit near Windsor. I was there to ride it myself but took a few snaps on the way to HQ.

Would have been the same weather system that afflicted MSR? A couple of storming hail showers here in Reading yesterday, the sun is warm but the air is cold.

That's right Kjetil! Lots more in Follo. Doing a bigger ride next weekend with a lot more gravel roads (unless it rains!) :-) It is a true shame that most of today's route hasn't been part of a race.
