On the Tenth day I made it to Les Gets by 4pm. Two Cols climbed with a total ascent of over 6000 feet (two Ben Nevis’s nearly) and a distance of 70 miles. Not bad at all, the total journey came in at 779miles.
The weather stayed fine so I managed to stay warm the N5 was not to busy so not as scary as I thought and the mega descent to Lake Geneva was great as the route is not used by trucks.
Now to work out how to get home! Here is todays trip:-
