Briançon
... to arrive. Dad also had a cheese platter since he was peckish. Anoop sampled one of the goat cheeses and Dad told him if you breathed out through your nose while sampling it you would really taste the goat. After trying this he decided it was not a good idea at all and would not recommend doing so. We then headed back to camp to change and pick up our bikes.
We set off for the Clarée Valley near Briançon and parked in a small lot ...

When I reached the pass and had some time to catch my breath and gulp down lots of water, I looked across the road and saw Tanya and Mägge happily shopping at a roadside stand.

Before heading back to the campsite, Hille, Rod ...
Croix de Fer
After such a long ride the day before, Dad was quite happy to drive the other van to our next campsite and Anoop decided (or it was decided for him) that he should also have a day off if he wanted any hopes of making it up Alpe d'Huez.
