Pyrenees Day 6

Pyrenees Day 6

It’s another stupid hard day again but this time we have good weather It was sunny from the stat but the first mountain HC cat (Col de Pailheres) was a kick to the head, it was right outside the Hotel door I didn’t get a chance to warm up it was straight into a climb Anyway I was feeling ok today, still sore, and probably will be for the next few days, but I was going quite hard today so got to the top without incident and felt ok The next 2 Cat 2 climbs, Col des Moulis and Col du Garabeil, were easy and I mean really easy they were very short climbs with a low gradient about 2 km for one and 4 km for the second so I got up them very quickly and had lunch at the top. The last climb of the day Col de Jau is a cat 1 mountain and was much harder and longer but the best bit about it was the 18 miles downhill section off it Since the weather was good I got some great pictures and since tomorrow is the last day these are the last of the big Cols, tomorrows only cat 2 Col is Col des Caixas
