Little ride in the mountains

Posted: Sun Jun 13, 2010 4:46 pm

Hey Guys,

I promised pictures of the surrounding of where I live. Just coming back from a day ride in Vercors and Drome, two magnificient regions, especially suited for bike rides because of the landscape and twisty roads.

A place called le col de Rousset, check the road on the side of the mountain:

And my bike in front of a U turn:

Going by wonderful little villages and stopping for resting the wrists (mainly due to braking downhill), but not the right elbow (beeeeeeer!!)

I am definitively calling the NE fall ride to be there!!!!

Some little videos to show the twisties:

That road looks awesome, and the town looks amazing. Would love to visit sometime.

Sly,

Very nice area that you live in. I've been to France many times (family in Limousin/Correze) but never on a motorcycle, just rental cars.

Need to get there on a bike some year..

Thanks for posting that. Post more pics!

Looks fantastic! Thanks for the post. Do I see a couple of skinny-dippers in that last pic?
