<br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_St_Bernard_Pass" target="_blank">Grand Saint-Bernard</a> (<span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">2,469 m / 8,100 ft) renowned for the scenery, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_St_Bernard_Hospice" target="_blank">hospice</a> and the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Bernard_(dog)" target="_blank">dogs</a>, is the third highest road pass in Switzerland. It links the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valais" target="_blank">Valais</a> region in Switzerland to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aosta_Valley" target="_blank">Aosta</a> region in Italy.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;"><br /></span></span>
</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white;">From <a href="https://www.google.fr/maps/place/Orsi%C3%A8res,+Suisse/@46.0220966,7.1455049,12.75z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x47893491d8f6dc7b:0x807ff1ad6a99b5a7!8m2!3d46.0282108!4d7.1470995" target="_blank">Orsières</a> the ascension is pretty short, but beautiful. Narrow with a few hairpins, the road isn't a road rage track to unleash your supercar, it's really a tourist path. The scenery is breathtaking with a lot of apparent rocks and lovely valleys.</span></span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The italian side is far more interesting to drive, wider, faster with those superb "armco-ish" barriers typically italian. The scenery is quite different, less rocks and more grass, the road is fluid and relaxing.</span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Then you connect to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aosta" target="_blank">Aosta</a>, its traffic, speed regulations and stress. From there you can circle back to France through the <a href="http://www.pass-hunters.co.uk/2014/06/petit-saint-bernard-beautiful-trip-to.html" target="_blank">Petit Saint-Bernard</a> pass, way more interesting to drive if we must confess. Then why not pushing to the <a href="http://www.pass-hunters.co.uk/2014/05/cormet-de-roselend-reopening.html" target="_blank">Cormet de Roselend</a> for a true and complete experience ?</span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_St_Bernard_Pass" target="_blank">Grand Saint-Bernard</a> is beautiful and iconic, but not the best one to have fun in with your car or bike.</span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;"><span style="font-family: sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">Depuis </span></span><a href="https://www.google.fr/maps/place/Orsi%C3%A8res,+Suisse/@46.0220966,7.1455049,12.75z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x47893491d8f6dc7b:0x807ff1ad6a99b5a7!8m2!3d46.0282108!4d7.1470995" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" target="_blank">Orsières </a><span style="font-family: sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px;">la montée est plutôt courte mais très jolie. Etroite avec quelques épingles, la route n'est pas adaptée à un déchaînement de rage et de puissance mais plutôt à une balade touristique. Le paysage est a couper le souffle, bardé de rochers et de jolis vallons.</span></span></span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Le lac et l'<a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hospice_du_Grand-Saint-Bernard" target="_blank">hospice</a> sont beaucoup plus petits que nous ne l'avions imaginé, c'est un petit refuge confortable.</span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Le versant italien est beaucoup plus intéressant à conduire, large, rapide avec ses superbes barrières typiquement italienne. La vue n'est pas la même non plus, moins de rochers, la route est plus fluide et relaxante.</span><span style="background-color: black; color: white;">Puis vous retrouvez <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aoste" target="_blank">Aoste</a>, sa circulation, ses limitations de vitesse et son stress. D'ici vous pouvez repasser en France par le col du <a href="http://www.pass-hunters.co.uk/2014/06/petit-saint-bernard-beautiful-trip-to.html" target="_blank">Petit Saint-Bernard</a>, beaucoup plus intéressant à conduire.

<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Once at the top you will discover the</span><span style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"> </span><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_St_Bernard_Hospice" style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px;" target="_blank">hospice</a>, established around 1050 to provide safe passage to the travelers through brigandage and harsh weather.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">The lake and hospice are way smaller than expected, it's a tiny cozy refuge up there.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chartreuse_Mountains" target="_blank">Chartreuse Mountains</a> (2,082 mètres / 6,831 ft) situated between <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamb%C3%A9ry" target="_blank">Chambery</a> and<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grenoble" target="_blank"> Grenoble</a> in France, are knowed for numerous things. <a href="http://chartreuse-tourisme.com/?lang=fr" target="_blank">Sport and nature activities</a> at first, then <a href="https://youtu.be/RBG8g3p7RDU" target="_blank">rallying (click to watch)</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carthusians" target="_blank">the carthusian order</a> but most and for all, the <a href="https://www.chartreuse.fr/en/" target="_blank">alcoholic cordial chartreuse</a> produced by the monks since 1740s.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Even the famous <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZZ_Top" target="_blank">ZZ top</a> band fell in love with the breverage, <a href="https://youtu.be/zCHIO0XHbUg" target="_blank">naming a song after it (click to listen)</a>.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">The mountains offer numerous interesting roads and passes, it's difficult to choose one over an other and we can't list them all. But for sure the place is quite unique with the sentiment to be preserved from the modern world, more than any other place.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Most of the passes aren't high, like the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Granier" target="_blank">Granier</a> 1,134 m (3,720 ft), but they offer beautiful sceneries and roads, from narrow forrest trails to wide and fast tracks, even tiny little canyon path. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">We enjoyed our time there, even if you can't carry a lot of speed on those roads you will love this feeling of being lost somewhere in time and space.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">The chartreuse was part of the Monte Carlo Rally in the sixties.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Le <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massif_de_la_Chartreuse" target="_blank">Massif de la Chartreuse</a> situé entre <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamb%C3%A9ry" target="_blank">Chambéry</a> et <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grenoble" target="_blank">Grenoble</a> est connu pour de nombreuses raisons. <a href="http://chartreuse-tourisme.com/?lang=fr" target="_blank">Les activités sportives et la nature</a> d'une part, son <a href="https://youtu.be/RBG8g3p7RDU" target="_blank">Rallye (cliquez pour regarder)</a>, <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ordre_des_Chartreux" target="_blank">l'ordre des Chartreux</a> mais surtout pour son alcool de plantes, <a href="https://www.chartreuse.fr/" target="_blank">la Chartreuse</a>, produite par les moines depuis 1740 environ.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">Même le célèbre groupe <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZZ_Top" target="_blank">ZZ top</a> en est tombé amoureux et en a <a href="https://youtu.be/zCHIO0XHbUg" target="_blank">composé un morceau (à écouter en cliquant ici)</a>.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Le massif offre de nombreuses routes intéressantes, il est difficile d'en choisir une plus qu'une autre et nous ne pouvons pas toutes les lister. Ce qui est sûr c'est que le lieu est véritablement singulier avec cette impression d'être préservé du monde moderne, plus que partout ailleurs.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">La plupart des cols ne sont pas très élevés, comme celui du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Granier" target="_blank">Granier</a> 1,134 m (3,720 ft), mais ils offrent de superbes vues et itinéraires, allant du chemin forestiers aux routes larges et rapides avec même de petites gorges à traverser.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: black;"><span style="color: white; font-family: inherit;">Nous nous sommes plu en Chartreuse, même si il n'y a pas forcément de quoi prendre beaucoup de vitesse, vous apprécierez sûrement cette sensation d'être perdu dans l'espace et le temps.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: black; color: white; font-family: inherit;">La Chartreuse faisait partie du Rallye Monte Carlo dans les années 60.</span><br />

The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Galibier">Galibier </a>(8678 ft/ 2642 m) has been used in the <a href="http://www.letour.fr/le-tour/2016/us/">Tour de France</a> since 1911 and is one of the highest pass in Europe. It links <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie">Savoie</a> and the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hautes-Alpes">Hautes-Alpes</a>, in between the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_T%C3%A9l%C3%A9graphe">Telegraph</a> pass and the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Lautaret">Lautaret</a> pass.<br />
<br />
If you come from <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie">Savoie</a> you'll first exprience the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Galibier">Galibier</a> by the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_T%C3%A9l%C3%A9graphe">Telegraph</a> pass, which I think, is the busiest pass I have seen so far. it's like being stuck in a traffic jam around a big city, except you are in the middle of nowhere. True nightmare if you are not cruising on early / late hours of the day. The road there is wide with a good rhythm and a lot of hairpins, nice one if you are alone.<br />
<br />
The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Galibier">Galibier</a> is as much what you expect of a high mountain pass, wide roads at the bottom, very narrow ones at the top, no guardrails, lots of hairpins, beautiful sceneries, scary parts over huge cliffs, etc, ... but it's also filled with tons of cyclists, you nearly can't go through the cyclist crowd at the summit. Crazy!<br />
<br />
On the other side, the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Lautaret">Lautaret</a> pass was quiet due to a landslide which condemned the road a few kilometers farther. Easier, wider with some beautiful straight roads in between mountains it's a nice place to take a rest. Especially if the road is reopened, you will be able to access to gorgeous lakes.<br />
<br />
The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Galibier">Galibier</a> is everything you expected and even more, it's such a magnificent place, even more if you come by a gathering of historical Porsches, like us.<br />

<br />
Le <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Galibier">Galibier</a> alt. 2642m, est présent dans le <a href="http://www.letour.fr/le-tour/2016/fr/">Tour de France</a> depuis 1911 et l'un des plus haut cols d'Europe. Il relie la <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie">Savoie</a> aux <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hautes-Alpes">Hautes-Alpes</a>, entre le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_T%C3%A9l%C3%A9graphe">Télégraphe</a> et celui du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Lautaret">Lautaret</a>.<br />
<br />
Si vous venez de la <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie">Savoie</a> vous devez passer par le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_T%C3%A9l%C3%A9graphe">Télégraphe</a>, qui est je pense le col le plus embouteillé que nous ayons pu voir. L'impression d'être coincé dans les bouchons autour d'une grande ville, tout en étant au milieu de nul part. Un vrai cauchemar si vous n'avez pas décidé de prendre la route très tôt ou très tard. La route y est très large, avec un bon rythme et de nombreuses épingles, chouette si vous êtes seul.<br />
<br />
Le <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Galibier">Galibier</a> est tout ce que vous pouvez imaginer d'un col d'une telle altitude, large en bas, très serré en haut, pas de barrières, des tas d'épingles, une vue superbe, des passages effrayants au-dessus de falaises abruptes, etc, ... Mais il est aussi rempli de cyclistes, il est presque impossible de traverser la foule au sommet du col. Fou!<br />
<br />
De l'autre côté, le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Lautaret">Lautaret</a> était très calme à cause d'un glissement de terrain qui a fermé la route quelques kilomètres plus loin. Plus facile, plus large avec de belle ligne droite entre les montagnes, un bel endroit pour faire une pause. Tout spécialement si la route réouvre et que vous avez accès aux lacs environnant.<br />
<br />
Le <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Galibier">Galibier</a> est tout ce que vous attendez d'un col en altitude et plus encore, il est si magnifique que vous vous en souviendrez pour des années et des années... D'autant plus si vous croisez un rassemblement de Porsches historiques, comme ce fut le cas pour nous.<br />

The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Glandon">Glandon</a> (6,312 ft / 1,924 m) pass is known for two facts. First one, it appeared around twenty times in the <a href="http://www.letour.fr/le-tour/2015/us/">Tour de France</a> (and will be this year too). Second one, in Jully and August 1944, the troops of <a href="http://www.maquisdeloisans.fr/Insignes.html">Maquis de l'Oisans</a> (french Resistance), held down german attacks near this pass.<br />
<br />
The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Glandon">Glandon</a> links the valleys of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurienne">Maurienne</a> in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie">Savoie</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanche">Romanche</a> in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%C3%A8re">Isère</a>. The north side in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie">Savoie</a> <br />
is really narrow, through forest and villages, you will encounter a couple of superb hairpins with sides paved.<br />
It may be difficult to pass other vehicles, due to blind corners and tight roads, many cyclists or RV's are roaming there. As you will see in following shots, we encountered the <a href="http://www.bmc-switzerland.com/int-en/experience/racing-teams/bmc-racing-team/">BMC</a> pro cyclist team in a training session. Then you will discover a beautiful middle-mountain scenery prior to the superb lake of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lac_de_Grand_Maison">Grand Maison</a>. On the south side in <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%C3%A8re">Isère</a>, the road is way wider and faster with beautifully designed hairpins just in front of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand%27Maison_Dam">Grand Maison Dam</a>.<br />
<br />
Off season it's a really nice and beautiful road, but it's also a true nightmare during summer, cyclists and RV's everywhere....<br />

Le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Glandon">Glandon</a> (1924m), est connu principalement pour deux raisons. La première, son apparitions lors d'une vingtaine de <a href="http://www.letour.fr/le-tour/2015/fr/">Tour de France</a> (et le sera encore cette année). La seconde, en Juillet et Août 1944, lorsque le <a href="http://www.maquisdeloisans.fr/Insignes.html">Maquis de l'Oisans</a> (Résistance française) a repoussé les troupes allemandes près du col.<br />
<br />
Le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_du_Glandon">Glandon</a> relie les vallées de la <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurienne">Maurienne</a> en <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie_%28d%C3%A9partement%29">Savoie</a> et de la <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romanche_%28rivi%C3%A8re%29">Romanche</a> en <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%C3%A8re_%28d%C3%A9partement%29">Isère</a>. La face nord, en <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Savoie_%28d%C3%A9partement%29">Savoie</a>, est très serrée au travers de forêt et de villages, vous aurez la chance de parcourir quelques superbes épingles aux face pavées. Il est parfois compliqué de dépasser d'autres véhicules à cause des virages en aveugle et des routes serrées, de plus beaucoup de cyclistes ou de camping-cars errent par ici.Comme vous le découvrirez sur les images suivantes, nous avons croisé l'équipe de cyclisme professionnel <a href="http://www.bmc-switzerland.com/int-en/experience/racing-teams/bmc-racing-team/">BMC</a> en plein entrainement. Ensuite vous arriverez sur un superbe paysage de moyenne montagne avant d'arriver sur le beau lac de <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lac_de_Grand_Maison">Grand Maison</a>. Du côté sud en <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%C3%A8re_%28d%C3%A9partement%29">Isère</a>, la route est beaucoup plus large et rapide avec des épingles au design presque parfait, tout juste en face du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrage_de_Grand%27Maison">barrage de Grand maison</a>.<br />
<br />
Hors saison c'est une route très jolie et sympathique, mais cela peut également être un véritable enfer en été avec des cyclistes et des camping-cars partout...<br />

Some are searching for a place to go flat-out and some are searching for the curvest roads possible. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a> (el. 5471ft. / alt. 1750m), home of a famous ski resort just a few clicks from the Capital of the Alps : <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grenoble">Grenoble</a>, combines those two rare qualities. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The south side of the road to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a> is so fast and wide that only supercar type of vehicles will really enjoy-it, despite the dozen of hairpins. In Hot-Hatch or small sport-cars you may be bored by the high-paced, always flat-out, monotone tracky-road, or thrilled by the endless acceleration-ramp and wide where-do-I-put-my-wheels-there-is-so-much-space hairpins, trying to figure what are the limits of your ride. There is no consensus in the appreciation of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse.</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The north side is slower and narrower in a more common forest-type of road. Less speed and less hairpins, this side is still better fitted to Hot-Hatch / small sport-cars abilities, but less thrilling for sure.</div>

So, as confusing as this may sound, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a> is definetely a place to check off your list, we enjoyed it a lot when some of our friends found it boring. So just Ride it and share with us what you think of it!</div>

By the way <a href="http://www.coursedecote-chamrousse.fr/accueil/index.php/accueil-montee">the first Historic HillClimb</a> will take place this september.</div>

Certains sont à la recherche de lieux pour rouler à fond, d'autres sont à la recherche des routes les plus tortueuses possible. <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a> (alt. 1750m), célèbre station de ski à seulement quelques kilomètres de la "Capitale des Alpes" : <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grenoble">Grenoble</a>, combine ces deux qualités très rares.<br />
<br />
L'itinéraire sud menant à <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a> est si large et rapide que seuls les véhicules aux performances de supercars peuvent véritablement s'exprimer, malgré la petite douzaine d'épingles à cheveux. Dans une petite voiture de sport vous pourriez vous ennuyer sur cette route au profil rapide mais monotone, digne d'un circuit, mais toujours à fond. Ou bien vous serez enivré par cette rampe de lancement sans fin et très large (à se demander "Où faut-il se placer ?"), à la recherche des limites de sa machine.<br />
Il n'y a aucun consensus dans l'appréciation de <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a>.<br />
<br />
L'itinéraire nord est beaucoup plus lent et étroit, dans une configuration de route au cœur de la forêt, plus commune. Moins de vitesse et moins d'épingles, cette route est plus taillée pour les petites sportives, mais moins enivrante.<br />
<br />
Donc aussi étrange que cela puisse paraître, <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a> est définitivement une route à ajouter à votre liste, nous l'avons adoré, quand certains de nos amis se sont juste ennuyés. Alors faites-la et partagez avec nous votre avis! <br />

Depuis 1962 <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamrousse">Chamrousse</a> héberge l'une des plus célèbre étape du <a href="http://www.coursedecote-chamrousse.fr/accueil/index.php/bienvenue-sur-le-site-officiel-de-la-course-de-cote-de-chamrousse">championnat de France de course de côte</a> et depuis peu la seule manche en montagne (Touge) du <a href="http://www.coursedecote-chamrousse.fr/accueil/index.php/accueil-drift">championnat de France de Drift</a>. C'est également un lieu de <a href="http://collectour.fr/expo-collectour-a-chamrousse-7-juin-2015/">rassemblement pour les amateurs de voitures anciennes</a>. D'ailleurs en septembre de cette année aura lieu la première <a href="http://www.coursedecote-chamrousse.fr/accueil/index.php/accueil-montee">course de côte historique de Chamrousse</a>.</div>

Just a few clicks from the beautiful and historical city of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annecy">Annecy</a>, and its marvelous lake, is the famous (and infamous) "<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz</a>" pass (el. 5574ft / alt. 1699m) . Famous for its racing heritage, part of the <a href="http://www.asacmontblanc.com/">Mont-Blanc Rally </a>for many years in the past and now in the historical edition (<a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9j212_mt-blanc-historique-2009-es1-semnoz_auto">Alpine A310 onboard</a>), it's also famous for the beautiful ski resort or the superb sceneries at the top.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz</a> pass is also infamous for the numerous gatherings of petrolheads and other maniacs who come to ripp off tires no mater what time or conditions : day or night, summer or winter, sunny or rainy... maybe even more if it's snowing.</div>

For a great road-trip we sudgest to bord the lake from south to north, entering <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annecy">Annecy</a> and then going west to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz </a>pass. Starting in a narrow, slow but smooth forest road with a few hairpins, you will then enjoy a wider and way faster piece of tarmac to the summit. You can also make a detour to the <a href="http://www.monteedequintal.fr/">Quintal</a> road to drive on the historical hillclimb track (<a href="https://youtu.be/hy8tytvnn7c">Porsche 911 SC Almeras onboard</a>), down and up, before heading back to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz</a> pass.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Once at the top be sure to stop to take pictures of the superb sceneries, take a rest and prepare for the downhill section. The top of the pass is really slow and narrow in a beautiful forest middle-mountain environment but then the it becomes fast, narrow and filled with hairpins. The downhill to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bauges">the Bauges</a> is one thirilling and tricky bit of a road.</div>

A quelques kilomètres de la ville historique d'<a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annecy">Annecy</a> et de son superbe lac, se trouve le célèbre (et redouté) col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz</a> (alt. 1699m). Célèbre de part son passé dans la compétition automobile, il a fait parti de nombreuses années du <a href="http://www.asacmontblanc.com/">Rallye du Mont-Blanc</a> avant d'être relégué de nos jours au compétition historiques (<a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9j212_mt-blanc-historique-2009-es1-semnoz_auto">embarquez dans une Alpine A310</a>). Connu également pour sa station de ski et son panorama magnifique à son sommet.<br />
Le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz </a>est également redouté car il est régulièrement le point de rendez-vous des amoureux du pilotage et autres allumés du chrome qui viennent cirer des pneus quelques soient l'heure, les saisons ou les conditions climatiques : jour et nuit, été comme hiver, ensoleillé ou pluvieux... peut-être même encore plus lorsqu'il neige.<br />

<br />
Pour une belle balade nous vous conseillons de longer le lac d'<a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annecy">Annecy</a> du sud vers le nord, puis de prendre en direction de l'ouest vers le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz</a>. Au départ sur une route en plein cœur de la forêt, étroite, lente mais en bon état avec quelques épingles vous allez rapidement vous trouver sur une route beaucoup plus large et rapide. N'hésitez pas aussi à faire un détour par la route du <a href="http://www.monteedequintal.fr/">Quintal</a>, qui héberge depuis quelques années une montée de véhicules historiques (<a href="https://youtu.be/hy8tytvnn7c">embarquez dans une Porsche 911 SC Almeras</a>), avant de remonter en direction du col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz</a>.<br />
<br />
Une fois au sommet prenez le temps de vous arrêter pour profiter du paysage, faire une pause et vous préparer à la descente. Le sommet du col est lent et étroit dans un magnifique environnement forestier de moyenne montagne, puis la route devient rapide, serrée et apporte à son tour son lot d'épingles. La descente en direction des <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massif_des_Bauges">Bauges</a> est à la fois palpitante et piégeuse.<br />
<br />

<br />
<a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massif_des_Bauges">Le massif des Bauges</a> est une cuvette verte, bordée de montagnes et de superbes cols, vous êtes certains d'y trouver de belles routes de balade et d'excitants cols pour l'attaque.<br />
<br />
Au final le col du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semnoz">Semnoz</a> est une route pleine de contraste, parfois lente et étroite, rapide et large (voire rapide et étroite), vous serez en mesure d'affronter une grande variété de conditions de roulage sur seulement quelques kilomètres dans un environnement véritablement unique.<br />
<br />
Sur le chemin du retour nous nous sommes arrêté au <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Miolans">Château de Miolans</a>, renommé pour avoir été un temps la prison du <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donatien_Alphonse_Fran%C3%A7ois_de_Sade">Marquis de Sade</a> en 1772.<br />

<br />
There aren't many places such as "Méruz" road, with more than 40 hairpins it was one of the most feared rally stages in the 80's, early 90's. It was part of the <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rallye_du_Mont-Blanc">"Mont-Blanc" Rally</a> and later of the Historical one too. It leads to the "Col de l'Arpettaz" el. 1581 m / 5187 ft.<br />
<br />
This road has not been used in competition since 2007, "Mont-Blanc" Historical Rally, as a <a href="http://www.classic-auctions.com/Images/Report/114C/45507c.jpg">Lotus Elan</a> lost control <a href="http://lci.tf1.fr/france/faits-divers/2007-06/savoie-deux-morts-dans-rallye-automobile-4864222.html">killing both pilot and co-pilot</a>.<br />
<br />
The "Méruz" can be accessed by a beautifil road from <a href="http://www.ugine.com/fr/index.htm">"Ugine"</a> through "Héry-sur-Ugine". The first part is fast and wide, great rhythm but always with a lot of trafic. Then you will have access to a truly narrow road, kind of twisted, with superb sceneries where you can even see the <a href="http://www.savoie-mont-blanc.com/en">"Mont-blanc"</a>. At the top you will arrive at the "Arpettaz" pass, where you will be able to eat excellent regional specialities and sleep for the night. <a href="http://refugearpettaz.com/">"Le refuge du Col de l'Arpettaz"</a> welcomes you everyday of summer and soon in winter season too, just ask for Emmanuel.<br />
<br />
Once you are reposed from a good night of sleep in a perfect calm and fed, you can head back to <a href="http://www.ugine.com/fr/index.htm">"Ugine"</a> by the fabulous and renowned "Méruz" Road. Dangerous and narrow, this road will ask of you every bit of attention, closing hairpins, blind corners, jumps, compressions, fords, etc, ... All and everything you can imagine in a rally stage. There is absolutely no way to go fast here unless closing the road, which may allow you to Scandinavian flick it from top to bottom... If you are a <a href="http://www.wrc.com/en/">WRC</a> champion of course.<br />
<br />
Superb views, technical driving, numerous hairpins, fear, ... Nothing else to say, you need to experience this piece of rallying history. <br />
<br />

Il y a peu de lieux comme le "Méruz", avec plus de 40 épingles à cheveux c'était l'une des spéciales de Rallye les plus redoutées dans les années 80/90. Elle faisait partie du <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rallye_du_Mont-Blanc">"Rallye du Mont-Blanc"</a> puis de sa version historique. Elle mène au "Col de l'Arpettaz" à 1581 m d'altitude.<br />
<br />
Cette route n'a plus été utilisée en compétition depuis 2007, au "Rallye du Mont-Blanc" historique, lorsqu'une <a href="http://www.classic-auctions.com/Images/Report/114C/45507c.jpg">Lotus Elan</a> est sortie de la route <a href="http://lci.tf1.fr/france/faits-divers/2007-06/savoie-deux-morts-dans-rallye-automobile-4864222.html">tuant sur le coup pilote et copilote</a>.<br />
<br />
On peut accéder au "Méruz" pas une jolie route en partant "d'<a href="http://www.ugine.com/fr/index.htm">Ugine</a>" et traversant "Héry-sur-Ugine". La première portion est rapide et large, très bon rythme mais beaucoup de trafic. Puis vous accéderez à une route très étroite avec beaucoup de virages et un superbe paysage, on peut même y apercevoir le <a href="http://www.savoie-mont-blanc.com/">"Mont-Blanc"</a>. Au sommet vous arriverez au "Col de l'Arpettaz" où vous aurez la possibilité de goùter aux spécialités locales et même passer la nuit. <a href="http://refugearpettaz.com/">"Le refuge du Col de l'Arpettaz"</a> vous accueille tous les jours d'été et bientôt l'hiver également, demandez juste Emmanuel.<br />
<br />
Après une bonne nuit de repos dans un calme total et un bon petit-déjeuner, vous pourrez reprendre la route en direction d'<a href="http://www.ugine.com/fr/index.htm">Ugine</a> par la fabuleuse et célèbre route du "Méruz". Dangereuse et étroite, cette route réclamera toute votre attention, épingles à cheveux qui se resserrent, virages en aveugle, sauts, compressions, gués, etc, ... et tout ce que vous pouvez imaginer d'une spéciale de rallye. Il n'y a absolument aucun moyen de rouler vite ici à moins de fermer la route au préalable, ce qui vous permettrait de descendre en appel/contre-appel de haut en bas... Si vous êtes champion en <a href="http://www.wrc.com/fr/">WRC</a> bien évidemment. <br />
<br />
De superbes paysages, un tracé technique, de nombreuses épingles, la peur, ... Nul besoin d'en dire plus, vous devez vivre cette expérience rallyistique.<br />

Rare are the places to combine military, clerical and racing history, but here is the <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a>(2975ft/907m). It's the home of the <a href="http://www.albertvillefortifications.com/fortdetamie/" target="_blank">"Fort de Tamié"</a>, a fortification built in 1876 to defend <a href="http://www.pays-albertville.com/uk/index.aspx" target="_blank">"Albertville"</a> and the valleys around, it's the first defensive structure at this end of the alps.<br />
It is also a home for a cisterian monastery, the <a href="http://www.abbaye-tamie.com/" target="_blank">"Tamié Abbey"</a>, founded in 1132 and now hosting 30 monks producing a well renowned cheese : <a href="http://www.fromages.com/en/fromage/551-abbaye-de-tamie" target="_blank">"Le reblochon de tamié"</a>.<br />
<br />
As you know we are not a tourism office, not of that kind at least and what will interest us here is the racing heritage of the <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a>. Nowadays it takes part in the regional rally of <a href="http://ecuriefaverges.free.fr/" target="_blank">"Pays de Faverges"</a> (some videos of <a href="http://www.rallyefrance.com/videos-rallye-du-pays-de-faverges-2014" target="_blank">2014's editon</a>), but there was a time when it was part of the french rally championship in the <a href="http://www.biodyssee.ch/asac/" target="_blank">"Rallye du Mont-Blanc"</a> (a video of <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8210w_histoire-du-rallye-mont-blanc-1986_auto" target="_blank">1986's edition</a>).<br />
The most intersting fact (and the less documented), is that is was also part of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Rally_Championship" target="_blank">World Rally Chamionship (WRC)</a> Rally of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_Rally" target="_blank">"Monte-Carlo"</a> in the 80's. So the <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a> has seen monstruous <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_B" target="_blank">Group B</a> rally cars tearing up the road in special stages, more than 450 km / 280 miles north of their final destination, Monaco. Modern rallies only feautre a few hundred kilometers of road overall (special stages and liaison).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://youtu.be/0bOU4_X-ryY" target="_blank">Group B action in 1985's Monte Carlo Rally.</a><br />
<br />
The <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a> is our home turf, it's a bit like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Haruna" target="_blank">Mount Akina / Haruna</a> in <a href="http://youtu.be/ryp1ijSG3rI" target="_blank">Initial D</a> for the young <a href="http://www.1999.co.jp/itbig18/10183076b.jpg" target="_blank">Takumi Fujiwara</a>. This road is commonly used by the best local garages/tuners to test their cars (even Ferraris : 360 Modena, F430, etc, ...).<br />
There are two main roads leading to the <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié"</a> and the best thing is that you can link them up, making this mountain road your ideal 15 km / 9 miles (open and public) circuit. The west part is wide, fast, open, with beautiful views on the valley and <a href="http://www.pays-albertville.com/uk/index.aspx" target="_blank">"Albertville"</a>. Some wide hairpins, good straights to pick up speed and nice visibility, like a "small GT road" . The east part is kind of the opposite, narrow, slow with successive closing hairpins, more of a forest/tarmac rally stage.<br />
It really combines everything you would want on a road (fast & wide on a side and challenging & narrow on the other). It's open 365 days a year, even if it snows, the only downside is the high amount of cyclists that tries to revive glorious days of the <a href="http://www.letour.fr/le-tour/2015/us/" target="_blank">"Tour de France"</a>, which took place here several times in the past too.<br />

Rares sont les lieux à jouir à la fois d'une histoire militaire, religieuse et dans la course automobile. Mais voici le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a> (907m). Il héberge le <a href="http://www.albertvillefortifications.com/fortdetamie/" target="_blank">"Fort de Tamié"</a>, une fortification construite en 1876 pour défendre<br />
<a href="http://www.pays-albertville.com/fr/index.aspx" target="_blank">"Albertville"</a> et les vallées environnantes, il s'agit de la première ligne de défense de ce côté des Alpes.<br />
Il héberge également un monastère cistercien, <a href="http://www.abbaye-tamie.com/" target="_blank">"l'abbaye de Tamié"</a>, fondée en 1132. Celle-ci accueille 30 moines qui produisent le fameux : <a href="http://www.fromages.com/en/fromage/551-abbaye-de-tamie" target="_blank">"reblochon de tamié"</a>.<br />
<br />
Comme vous le savez nous ne sommes pas un office de tourisme, en tout cas pas de ce genre là et ce qui nous intéresse ici c'est bien sûr son passé dans le sport automobile. De nos jours seul le rallye des <a href="http://ecuriefaverges.free.fr/" target="_blank">"Pays de Faverges"</a> (vidéos de <a href="http://www.rallyefrance.com/videos-rallye-du-pays-de-faverges-2014" target="_blank">l'édition de 2014</a>) passe dans les environs. Mais il fut un temps où il faisait partie du championnat de france des rallyes au travers du <a href="http://www.biodyssee.ch/asac/" target="_blank">"Rallye du Mont-Blanc"</a> (une vidéo de <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8210w_histoire-du-rallye-mont-blanc-1986_auto" target="_blank">l'édition de 1986</a>).<br />
Le fait le plus intéressant (et le moins documenté) reste que le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a> a également fait partie du <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Rally_Championship" target="_blank">Championnat du Monde des Rallyes (WRC)</a> avec le rallye de <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monte_Carlo_Rally" target="_blank">"Monte-Carlo"</a> dans les années 80. Il a donc vu passer son lot de monstrueuses <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_B" target="_blank">Groupe B</a> déchirant l'asphalte en pleine spéciale, a plus de 450 km (de liaison) au nord de leur destination finale, Monaco. Les rallyes modernes n'offrant plus que quelques centaines de kilomètres au total (liaison et spéciales chronométrées).<br />
<br />
<a href="http://youtu.be/0bOU4_X-ryY" target="_blank">Des Groupe B en action au Rallye de Monte-Carlo 1985.</a><br />
<br />
Le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a> est notre terrain de jeu, un peu comme le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Haruna" target="_blank">Mont Akina / Haruna</a> d'<a href="http://youtu.be/ryp1ijSG3rI" target="_blank">Initial D</a> pour le jeune <a href="http://www.1999.co.jp/itbig18/10183076b.jpg" target="_blank">Takumi Fujiwara</a>. Cette route est fréquemment utilisée par les meilleurs garagistes locaux pour tester leurs véhicules d'exception (même des Ferrari F430, 360 Modena, etc, ..).<br />
Il y a deux routes principales pour accéder au <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a> et le meilleur est qu'il est possible de former une boucle, transformant cette route de montagne en un circuit (ouvert et public) de 15 kilomètres.<br />
A l'Ouest la route est large, rapide, ouverte avec une superbe vue sur <a href="http://www.pays-albertville.com/fr/index.aspx" target="_blank">"Albertville"</a> et ses environs. Des épingles larges, de petites lignes droites pour prendre un peu de vitesse et de la visibilité, une "petite route de Grand Tourisme". La section Est en est presque l'inverse, étroite, plus lente, avec des successions d'épingles qui se ferment, elle ressemble plus à une spéciale de Rallye en partie en forêt.<br />
Le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_Tami%C3%A9" target="_blank">"Col de Tamié" </a> combine véritablement tout ce que l'on peut désirer sur la route (rapide et large d'un côté, technique et étroit de l'autre). Le col est ouvert 365 jours par an, même en cas de neige, le seul souci est l'abondance de cyclistes qui tentent de faire revivre la gloire des anciens "<a href="http://www.letour.fr/fr/">Tour de France"</a>.<br />

Today Microsoft released a brand new live-action trailer for the upcoming open-world car game <a href="http://www.gamersyde.com/game_2966_en.html">Forza Horizon 2</a>. The brillant video intitled <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8k62OgK4pdU">"Leave your limits"</a> is showing off hoonigans in supercars and japanese rally-wannabees.<br />
<br />
We were thrilled by the performance, then at <a href="http://youtu.be/8k62OgK4pdU?t=1m10s">1:10</a> we figured that the road used here was the <a href="http://www.pass-hunters.co.uk/2014/08/susa-moncenisio-oldest-hillclimb-ever.html">"Susa - Moncenisio"</a> Hillclimb we did this summer. So we dived into archives. Pass Hunters : the best driving roads in the Alps.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: right;">
Enjoy!!</div>

"Susa - Moncenisio" is the first hillclimb ever, with the first edition taking place in July 27th 1902. For 112 years drivers throw themselves on this twisted little road going as fast as possible. Please take a look at the <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x19fs4g_la-14-edizione-della-susa-moncenisio_shortfilms" target="_blank">14th edition of 1937.</a><br />

When we realised we were so close to such a Historic place, it made no doubt that we had to go there, and we did it. We went from the french side through the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Cenis" target="_blank">"Col du Mont-Cenis"</a> (el. 2081 m, 6827 ft.)), crossing the boarder into italian territory to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susa,_Piedmont" target="_blank">"Susa"</a> and back to France.<br />
On your way to Italy, once you passed the beautiful lake of "Mont-Cenis", you drive straight into the iconic road of the most ancient hillclimb of the world.<br />
<br />
On the french side the road is supercarish, wide, in good condition, lot of visibility, big hairpins, fast... While it's quite crowded in August, it's quiet rest of the year. At the summit you will drive along a superb lake borded by mountains, perfect place to eat a snack.<br />
<br />
The Italian side is just breathtaking, vintage, latin-styled road like you can't find anywhere else. Those hairpins borded by big square blocks are so iconics, that it will stay printed in your mind forever. The road is smooth with magnificient curves, so damn fun that it would be a sin not to enjoy it full throttle. But some slow brake-happy sunday drivers and signs of regular speed controls remind you that you are not <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincenzo_Lancia" target="_blank">Vincenzo Lancia</a> drifting your <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_24-32_HP" target="_blank">Fiat 24HP</a> in 1902.<br />
Your car company won't neither win several World Rally Championship in a row in a few years.<br />

To revive History or just to enjoy superb roads and beautiful landscapes, you must go back and forth to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susa,_Piedmont" target="_blank">"Susa"</a> by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Cenis" target="_blank">"Col du Mont-Cenis"</a>.<br />

"Susa - Moncenisio" est la plus ancienne course de côte du Monde, la première édition ayant eu lieu le 27 Juillet 1902. Depuis 112 ans maintenant, des pilotes se lancent à l'assaut de cette petite route sinueuse, un aperçu de la <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x19fs4g_la-14-edizione-della-susa-moncenisio_shortfilms" target="_blank">14ème édition de 1937.</a><br />
<br />
Quand nous avons réalisé être aussi proche d'un lieu tant chargé d'Histoire, il ne faisait plus aucun doute que nous devions nous y rendre, et nous l'avons fait. Nous sommes partis du côté français, traversant le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Cenis" target="_blank">"Col du Mont-Cenis"</a>(alt. 2081 m) et la frontière italienne en direction de <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susa,_Piedmont" target="_blank">"Susa"</a>, puis retour en France. Sur votre chemin en direction de l'Italie, une fois le magnifique lac du "Mont-Cenis" derrière vous, vous plongez directement sur la route mythique de la course de côté la plus ancienne du Monde.<br />
<br />
Du côté français la route est digne de supercars, large, en bonne état, beaucoup de visibilité, de grandes épingles, rapide.... Alors qu'il y a beaucoup de monde en plein mois d'Aout, vous devriez être plus tranquille le reste de l'année. Au sommet vous longerez un superbe lac bordé de montagnes, l'endroit parfait pour une pause casse-croûte.<br />
<br />
Le côté italien est tout simplement à couper le souffle, vintage, à la chaleur latine qu'on ne peut retrouver ailleurs qu'en Italie. Ces épingles bordées de gros blocs de ciments sont tellement visuellement marquantes, qu'elles resteront à jamais gravées dans votre esprit. La route est lisse avec de magnifiques courbes, tellement plaisante que ce serait un péché de ne pas en profiter pied au plancher. Malheureusement les conducteurs du dimanche et la signalisation de contrôles routiers fréquents vous rappelleront que vous n'êtes pas <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vincenzo_Lancia" target="_blank">Vincenzo Lancia</a> driftant avec sa <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_24-32_HP" target="_blank">Fiat 24HP</a> en 1902. Votre manufacture d'automobiles ne remportera pas non plus le Championnat du Monde des Rallyes plusieurs fois consécutivement dans quelques années.<br />
<br />
Pour faire revivre l'Histoire ou tout simplement profiter de superbes routes et de magnifiques paysages, vous devez vous rendre à <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susa,_Piedmont" target="_blank">"Susa"</a> par le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mont_Cenis" target="_blank">"Col du Mont-Cenis"</a> et revenir.<br />

The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_l%27Iseran" target="_blank">"Col de l'iseran"</a> (el. 2770 mètres) 9088ft)) is the highest paved roads of the entire Alps, you don't need more to understand that you must visit it. The pass is situated at the far end of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarentaise_Valley" target="_blank">Tarentaise</a> just after the beautiful ski resorts of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Val_d%27isere" target="_blank">Val d'Isère</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tignes" target="_blank">Tignes</a>.<br />
<br />
The road is quite narrow and most corners blind, it's in good shape despite the hard and long winter seasons. You will encounter successives light turns and hairpins on a good rhythm but no guardrails to prevent any mistake.<br />
<br />
You won't be surprised to find an overcrowded place where gunning your tuned import hothatch supercar is nearly impossible, but you will enjoy cruising with your modern old school vintage whatever you have, in magnificent sceneries. The landscape and sights are truly breathtaking.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_l%27Iseran" target="_blank">"Col de l'iseran"</a> for eye pleasure mostly.<br />

Le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_l%27Iseran" target="_blank">"Col de l'iseran"</a> (2770 mètres) est la route goudronnée la plus haute de toutes les Alpes, inutile de préciser que cela justifie en soit sa visite. Le col est situé au fin fond de la vallée de la <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarentaise_Valley" target="_blank">Tarentaise</a>, à la sortie des superbes stations de ski de <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Val_d%27isere" target="_blank">Val d'Isère</a> et <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tignes" target="_blank">Tignes</a>.<br />
<br />
La route est plutôt étroite et la plupart des virages en aveugle, elle est en bonne condition étant donné les rudes et longues saisons d'hiver. Vous ferez face a un enchainement de virages légers et d'épingles à cheveux dans un bon rythme mais aucune barrière de sécurité de viendra rattraper une quelconque erreur de pilotage.<br />
<br />
Ne soyez pas surpris de trouver un lieu surpeuplé où déchainer votre supercar/citadine/japonaise tunée est quasiment impossible, mais vous apprécierez la balade au volant de votre véhicule quel qu’il soit dans un décors magnifique. Le paysage et la vue sont à couper le souffle.<br />
<br />
Le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_l%27Iseran" target="_blank">"Col de l'iseran"</a> pour le plaisir des yeux avant tout.<br />

Surfing on the web is full of surprises, most of the times you just dream in front of pictures taken in far and foreign countries. But sometimes you discover yourself living just a few clicks of what seems to be the heaven for car enthousiast : <a href="https://www.google.fr/search?q=les+lacets+de+montvernier&safe=off&espv=2&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=bbrXU8_SCaPlsATX2YCgCQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1745&bih=905" target="_blank">Les lacets de Montvernier.</a><br />
<br />
Seventeen (17) hairpins concentrated on only 2.5km/1.55miles, what else would you like ? Well in fact strapped in your car, down the road, facing the first couple of hairpins, there are a lot of things that you would like : a wider road (even passing a cyclist is complicated), longer straights, visibility; less cyclists, [...], 17 gears. Because even with the closest gear ratios that you could imagine, you will stay in 1st gear most of the time, if it's not all the time.<br />
<br />
Despite all that, <a href="https://www.google.fr/search?q=les+lacets+de+montvernier&safe=off&espv=2&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=bbrXU8_SCaPlsATX2YCgCQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1745&bih=905" target="_blank">Les lacets de Montvernier</a> is a charming place, a road to experience if you pass by.<br />

Surfer sur le net peut réserver bien des surprises, la plupart du temps vous rêvez devant des photos prises à l'aure bout du monde. Mais parfois vous vous découvrez vivre à seulement quelques kilomètres de ce qui peut sembler être le paradis des pilotes en herbe : <a href="https://www.google.fr/search?q=les+lacets+de+montvernier&safe=off&espv=2&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=bbrXU8_SCaPlsATX2YCgCQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1745&bih=905" target="_blank">Les lacets de Montvernier.</a><br />
<br />
Dix-sept (17) épingles à cheveux concentrées sur seulement 2.5km, que demande le peuple ? Et bien, à vrai dire une fois harnaché dans votre véhicule, sur la route, face aux premières épingles, il y a beaucoup de choses que vous voudriez : de la largeur (doubler un cycliste n'est déjà pas simple), de plus longues lignes droites, de la visibilité, moins de cyclistes [...], 17 vitesses. Parce que même avec le pont le plus court que vous puissiez imaginer, vous resterez coincé en première la plupart du temps si ce n'est tout le temps.<br />
<br />
Malgré tout, <a href="https://www.google.fr/search?q=les+lacets+de+montvernier&safe=off&espv=2&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=bbrXU8_SCaPlsATX2YCgCQ&ved=0CAYQ_AUoAQ&biw=1745&bih=905" target="_blank">Les lacets de Montvernier</a> est un lieu plein de charme, une expérience à tenter si vous êtes de passage.<br />

[Montsapey]<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tQ0DGwFibn8/U-jYoMwCw9I/AAAAAAAAAvU/pb0QKY88plk/s1600/Uk.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tQ0DGwFibn8/U-jYoMwCw9I/AAAAAAAAAvU/pb0QKY88plk/s1600/Uk.png" /></a></div>
Sometimes your bad luck catches with you as hard as bad weather during holidays. Still you tie your shoelaces and go for a run, just to practice, nothing fancy. As gearheads we do the same, but we check for shoelaces on Google Maps, to practice our mountain driving skills, that's why you will want to go to <a href="http://montsapey.fr/" target="_blank">Montsapey</a>!<br />
<br />
The Road is wide and quite fast at the bottom, with a good visibility and beautiful hairpins. As you climb, it becomes narrower, slower and tighter. Good conditions to work on your racing lines, heels-and-toes, etc, ...<br />
But unless you push it to the summit to hike, there is nothing to see here, no beautiful views on the valley or sights of any kind, only road and forest.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://montsapey.fr/" target="_blank">Montsapey</a> is a perfect shakedown to start your season of pass hunting!<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-J2JID92SJTQ/U-jYsLO2cQI/AAAAAAAAAvc/ic_zkyXA3n0/s1600/FR.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-J2JID92SJTQ/U-jYsLO2cQI/AAAAAAAAAvc/ic_zkyXA3n0/s1600/FR.jpg" /></a></div>
Parfois votre malchance vous poursuit aussi durement que le mauvais temps pendant vos vacances d'été. Pour autant vous lacez vos chaussures et vous partez courir, juste pour maintenir la forme, rien de tape à l'oeil. En tant que passionnés nous faisons la même chose, mais nos lacets se trouvent sur Google Maps. On entretient nos talents de pilotage en montage et c'est là que vous aurez envie d'aller à <a href="http://montsapey.fr/" target="_blank">Montsapey</a>!<br />
<br />
La route est large et plutôt rapide en bas, avec beaucoup de visibilité et de belles épingles. A mesure que vous montez elle devient plus étroite, lente et serrée. Toutes les conditions requises sont là pour vous entraîner aux trajectoires, talon-pointe, etc, ...<br />
Mais à moins d'aller au bout de la route jusqu'au sommet pour faire de la randonner, il n'y a rien de particulier à voir ici, juste de la forêt et de la route.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://montsapey.fr/" target="_blank">Montsapey</a> est la route parfaite pour pratiquer vos essais d'avant saison!<br />

<a href="http://www.motorsportiveday.com/motor-sportive-day-2014/">"Motor Sportive Day"</a> is a charity action to support <a href="http://www.pompiers.fr/oeuvre/accueil">Firefghter's Orphans</a>, featuring supercars in liberty on a closed ribbon of perfect mountain asphalt in the french alps, at <a href="http://www.montchavin-lescoches.com/fr/ete/">"Montchavin les Coches"</a>. For 4 years now, you can board as a passenger through 2kms/1.25miles of perfect hairpins (both on uphill and downhill), on Zondas, Ferraris, Lamborghinis, etc, ... for a relatively small amount of money (from 30€/40.6$/23.94£ for a random car, to 60€/81.2$/47.87£ if you want to choose one).<br />
<br />
We went to each and every <a href="http://www.motorsportiveday.com/motor-sportive-day-2014/">"Motor Sportive Day"</a> and had a great share of excitement in Subaru STI, Audi R8, Lotus Exige, Lotus Evora, Nissan GTR, Lancia Stratos Rally car, etc, ... But this is just some examples of the wonderful, sometimes very rare, cars in which you can board. Last year featured a Bugatti Veyron for a ridiculously high amount of money : 250€/338$/200£.<br />
<br />
We can't wait to be there for the fourth time!<br />

<a href="http://www.motorsportiveday.com/motor-sportive-day-2014/">"Motor Sportive Day"</a> est un oeuvre charitable au profit des <a href="http://www.pompiers.fr/oeuvre/accueil">orphelins des sapeurs pompiers</a>, qui met en scène des supercars en liberté sur une parfaite route des Alpes françaises, fermée pour l'occasion, à <a href="http://www.montchavin-lescoches.com/fr/ete/">"Montchavin les Coches"</a>. Depuis 4 ans aujourd'hui, vous pouvez embarquer comme passager pour environ 2 km d'épingles parfaites (en montée et en descente), dans des Zondas, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc, ... pour une somme relativement faible (de 30€ pour un véhicule au hasard jusqu’à 60€ pour une voiture spécifique).<br />
<br />
Nous avons été présent à chaque édition des <a href="http://www.motorsportiveday.com/motor-sportive-day-2014/">"Motor Sportive Day"</a> et nous nous sommes toujours amusés que ce soit dans des Subaru STI, Audi R8, Lotus Exige, Lotus Evora, Nissan GTR, Lancia Stratos de Rallye, etc, ... Ce ne sont que quelques exemples des magnifiques, et parfois très rares, voitures dans lesquels vous pouvez monter. L'année dernière il était également possible de monter dans une Bugatti Veyron pour un montant ridiculement haut de 205€.<br />
<br />
Nous sommes impatient d'y retourner pour la quatrième année consécutive.<br />

<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Search_of_Lost_Time" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: medium;">« </span>In search of lost time <span style="font-size: medium;">»</span></a><span style="font-size: medium;"> </span>, we went to a
monument of cyclism, one of most known mountain pass for fans of the
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tour_de_france" target="_blank">« Tour de France »</a>, the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_la_Madeleine" target="_blank">« Col de la Madeleine »</a>
!</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
With an elevation of 1993m / 7538 ft. le <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_la_Madeleine" target="_blank">« Col de la Madeleine »</a> is a crowded road during holidays, filled
with deutsch RVs/Motorhomes, dutch cyclists, UK bikers, french retired,
etc … But if you have the chance to go there off-season, it's a pretty nice place to visit.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
On each side of the pass you can enjoy wide successive hairpins while most of the trip you'll be slowed down by very narrow roads, small villages, blind corners, if it's not just the traffic... The sight only become interesting at the top of the pass, but it's mainly forest and small valleys.</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
Frankly we took this road two times already in less than one year, the first time was so busy in traffic that it felt like being stucked on a highway coming back from work. The second time was quiet in traffic but due to the nature of the road there was barely no fun at all. Still the top is quite beautiful and you really enjoy driving there.</div>

The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_la_Madeleine" target="_blank">« Col de la Madeleine »</a>, is more of a liaison from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarentaise_Valley" target="_blank">« Tarentaise »</a> to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurienne" target="_blank">« Maurienne »</a> (and vice-versa), than a true destination for automotive enthusiast.<br />

<br />
<a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%80_la_recherche_du_temps_perdu">"A la recherche du temps perdu" </a>, nous avons visité un monument du cyclisme, l'un des cols les plus connus du <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tour_de_france" target="_blank">« Tour de France »</a>, le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_la_Madeleine" target="_blank">« Col de la Madeleine »</a> !<br />
<br />
A une altitude de 1993m, le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_la_Madeleine" target="_blank">« Col de la Madeleine »</a> est une route très empruntée pendant les vacances, pleine de camping-cars, cyclistes néerlandais, motards anglais, retraités français, etc, ... Mais si vous avez la chance de vous y rendre hors-saison, c'est un bel endroit à visiter.<br />
<br />
De chaque côté du col vous pouvez profiter de larges épingles successives, alors que la plupart du temps vous serez ralentit par des portions de routes très étroites, de petits villages, virages en aveugle, si ce n'est le trafic, etc, ... La vue ne devient intéressante qu'ua sommet du col, le reste du temps ce ne sont que forêts et petits vallons.<br />
<br />
Honnêtement, nous avons emprunté cette route deux fois déjà cette année, la première fois le trafic était tellement intense que nous avions l'impression d'être dans un embouteillage sur l'autoroute au retour du travail. La seconde fois le trafic était plutôt calme, mais à cause du profil de la route en elle-même, ce n'est pas très amusant. Pour autant le sommet est magnifique et plaisant à rouler.<br />
<br />
Le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Col_de_la_Madeleine" target="_blank">« Col de la Madeleine »</a> est plus une route de liaison entre la <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarentaise_Valley" target="_blank">« Tarentaise »</a> et la <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurienne" target="_blank">« Maurienne »</a> (et vice-versa), qu'une véritable destination pour les passionnés de conduite sportive.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">Once again we took advantage of the
openning of a pass to offer you a beautiful trip through the alps.
Today we present you <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_St_Bernard_Pass" target="_blank">« Le col du petit Saint-Bernard »</a>,
which links France to Italy at an elevation of 2188m / 7178 ft.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourg-Saint-Maurice" target="_blank">« Bourg-Saint Maurice »</a>
in France to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courmayeur" target="_blank">« Courmayeur »</a> in Italy it's 55km/34miles of
fine roads, tight hairpins, slippery gravel and melting snow.
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">The first part from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourg-Saint-Maurice" target="_blank">« Bourg-SaintMaurice »</a> to the top of the pass isn't so exciting in uphill,
too crowded with a lack of visibility, but it's a high-paced wide
road (well to hot hatches standard) in pretty good condition. Then we
arrive on a beautiful pass with still a good amount of snow on the
sides, enough to pratice kitesnow or cross-country skiing. But it's
treacherous due to melting snow and numerous parts of gravel on the
road, very slippery, badly indicated and positioned sometimes just
before corners without any guardrails...</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">On the italian side the road is totally
different, very narrow, bumpy with endlessly closing tight hairpins
and very long gravel parts too (they seemed to be working on it).
Blazing a trail at high speed in downhill on this type of road isn't
a good idea, especially when it's your first time there. You never
know what is coming ahead, it may be gravel or a bike, a construction
truck, a S.U.V. (oh we hate S.UV.s, Grrr)... even if most of the
times it was only an another endlessly closing tight hairpin.
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">This part of Italy offers beautiful
sceneries and villages with breathtaking moments, a lot of tunnels
and very low / constantly changing speed limits. We didn't want to
meet the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carabinieri">« Carabinieri »</a> so we respected those limits
with a long tail of angry italian drivers behind us. We decided to
stay for lunch in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courmayeur" target="_blank">« Courmayeur »</a> and eat a genuine
italian pizza, it was more of tourist-trap than a true genuine
italian experience, but the « pizze » were tasty and
gigantic.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">Finally we headed back to Fr<span style="font-family: inherit;">ance, using
the same road, with the fresh memory of it but on the other way
(uphill on the italian side and downhill on the french one), <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_St_Bernard_Pass" target="_blank">« le col du Petit Saint-Bernard » </a>seemed way more interesting.
Italian hairpins</span> jump at your face like clockwork and sweeping gravel
in uphill isn't a problem anymore. Even the last part to
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourg-Saint-Maurice" target="_blank">« Bourg-Saint Maurice »</a> was exciting, high-paced wide
hairpins (and less people on the road) is better in downhill.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_St_Bernard_Pass" target="_blank">« Le Petit Saint-Bernard »</a>
is definetely a place to go, an experience to make, but always with
humility and caution.</span><br />

<br />
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;">Une fois de plus nous avons profité de
l'ouverture d'un col afin de vous offrir une superbe voyage à
travers les Alpes. Aujourd'hui nous vous présentons <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_St_Bernard_Pass">« Lecol du petit Saint-Bernard »</a>, qui relie la France à
l'Italie à une altitude de 2188 m.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;">Depuis
<a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourg-Saint-Maurice">« Bourg-SaintMaurice »</a> en France jusqu'à <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courmayeur">« Courmayeur »</a>
en Italie, c'est 55km de belles routes, étroites épingles, graviers
glissantes et neige fondue. La première partie au départ de
<a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourg-Saint-Maurice">« Bourg-SaintMaurice »</a> jusqu'au sommet du col n'est pas des plus
excitante en montée, du monde sur la route, peu de visibilité, mais
il s'agit d'une section rapide (en tout cas selon le standard de nos
voitures) en bonne condition. Ensuite nous arrivons sur un superbe
col avec encore beaucoup de neige sur le côté de la route,
suffisamment pour pratiquer le ski de fond ou le kite-snow. Mais
c'est assez traître à cause de la neige qui fond sur la route et de
parties gravillonnées très glissantes, mal indiquées et parfois
placées juste à l'approche de virages dénués de barrières de
sécurité...</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;">Du
côté italien la route est totalement différente, très serrée,
bosselée, composée de petites épingles qui ne cessent de se
refermer, sans parler de longue partie gravillonnée également (ils
semblaient en plein travaux). Ouvrir le chemin à un rythme soutenu
en descente sur ce type de route n'est pas une bonne idée, tout
particulièrement lorsqu'il s'agit de votre première visite du coin.
On ne sait jamais ce qu'il va surgir devant nous, cela peut-être une
plaque de gravier, un motard, un semi-remorque, un S.U.V. (on déteste
ça, Grrrr)...même si la plupart du temps il ne s'agit en fait que
d'une énième épingle qui referme sans fin.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;"> Cette
partie de l'Italie offre de superbes paysages et villages, des
passages à couper le souffle, des tas de tunnels et des limites de
vitesse très basses qui changent tous les 100 mètres. Nous voulions
éviter de rencontrer les fameux <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carabinieri">« Carabinieri »</a>, donc
nous avons respecté scrupuleusement ces limites avec une longue file
de conducteurs italiens furieux derrière nous. Nous avons ensuite
décider de rester déjeuner à <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courmayeur">« Courmayeur »</a>
une authentique pizza italienne, cela ressemblait plus à un
attrappe-touriste qu'à une véritable expérience de l'Italie, mais
les « pizze » étaient très bonnes et gigantesques.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;">Finalement
nous sommes reparti en direction de la France, par la même route.
Encore frais dans notre esprit mais dans l'autre sens <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_St_Bernard_Pass">« lecol du Petit Saint-Bernard » </a> semblait nettement plus
intéressant. Les épingles italiennes vous sautent au visage au
rythme régulier d'une horloge et balayer les graviers en montée
n'est plus vraiment un problème. Même la dernière partie en
direction de <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourg-Saint-Maurice">« Bourg-SaintMaurice »</a> était excitante, les épingles larges et
rapides (moins de monde sur la route) sont beaucoup plus intéressante
en descente.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;"><br />
</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee; font-family: inherit;"><a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_St_Bernard_Pass">« LePetit Saint-Bernard »</a> est sans aucun doute un col à
faire absolument, une expérience à vivre, mais toujours avec
humilité et précautions.</span></div>

good shots were lost. New memory card are on their way to prevent
this to happen again.<br />

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tQ0DGwFibn8/U-jYoMwCw9I/AAAAAAAAAvQ/RxXrLaEkyfg/s1600/Uk.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-tQ0DGwFibn8/U-jYoMwCw9I/AAAAAAAAAvQ/RxXrLaEkyfg/s1600/Uk.png" /></a></div>
<br />
The reopening of a pass is always a great day, not much trafic
and a lot of snow on the scenery. Less than 48 hours after, we enjoyed
the opening of the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cormet_de_Roselend" target="_blank">« Cormet de Roselend » el. 1967m / 6453 ft.</a>, a road well known for us, a
perfect place to easily launch the season.<br />
<br />
We could'nt
dream of a better time for the uphill as the pass was totally deserted,
but the weather wasn't on our side, as clouds made their appearance once
we got off. Despite the weather forecast.<br />
We made a U-Turn
halfway through the Cormet because the west part is so more interesting
that it would have been a shame to not enjoy it a second time. The last
part of the downhill was to forget due to foreign cyclist on the wrong
side of the road, sleepy old men and crazy drivers taking far too many
risks with some piece of junk cars.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cormet_de_Roselend" target="_blank">« Cormet de Roselend »</a> is
really a place to drive to, beautiful sceneries, pretty good roads
(especially when deserted) and it's a front door to the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vall%C3%A9e_de_la_Tarentaise">« Tarentaise »</a>, a
great valley we'll discover later.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-J2JID92SJTQ/U-jYsLO2cQI/AAAAAAAAAvY/Ul-t4GBLgag/s1600/FR.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-J2JID92SJTQ/U-jYsLO2cQI/AAAAAAAAAvY/Ul-t4GBLgag/s1600/FR.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
La réouverture d'un col est toujours une bonne journée, peu de trafic et beaucoup de neige en décoration. Moins de 48 heures après celle-ci nous avons profité de l'ouverture du <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cormet_de_Roselend" target="_blank">« Cormet de Roselend » alt. 1967m</a>, une route que l'on connait bien, l'endroit parfait pour bien lancer la saison.<br />
<br />
On ne pouvait rêver d'un meilleur moment pour la montée tant le cormet était désert, par contre la météo n'était pas avec nous, les nuages faisant leur apparition au moment du départ. Malgré les bulletins météos. Nous avons fait demi-tour à la moitié du cormet, la partie ouest étant tellement plus intéressante que cela aurait été un crime de ne pas en profiter une seconde fois. La dernière partie de la descente est à oublier totalement à cause de cyclistes étrangere du mauvais côté de la route, de retraités en pleine sieste au volant et de conducteurs fous qui prenaient des risques inconsidérés au volant d'épaves roulantes.<br />
<br />
Le <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cormet_de_Roselend" target="_blank">« Cormet de Roselend »</a> est véritablement une route à emprunter, beaux paysages, de belles routes (surtout lorsqu'elles sont désertes) et c'est la porte d'entrée de la <a href="http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vall%C3%A9e_de_la_Tarentaise">"Tarentaise"</a>, une superbe vallée comme nous le découvrirons plus tard.<br />

The downhill is way less interesting, we stop by "Alby-sur-Chéran".<br />
In 2000s we used to park the Peugeot 205 gti 1.6l right here, wich isn't possible anymore.<br />
<br />
La descente moins intéressante nous rejoignons Alby sur chéran.<br />
Dans les années 2000 je garais ma 205gti sur la place, ce n'est visiblement plus possible.<br />

Back on the road we drive around the lake toward north, through "le Mont du Chat", here is the best piece of road, "Bond, James Bond ?".<br />

No problems on our cars, brakes are enduring. Then we went to the "Col de l'épine" (same place as the so name Rally). Epic road, bumpy, full of compressions, sharp turns... big/strong guts needed. This infamous hairpin is way tighter in reality.<br />
<br />
Aucun soucis particulier sur les voitures, les freins sont endurants,<br />
Tant mieux nous avons après attaquer le passage du col de l'épine<br />
(au même endroit que le rallye du même nom) la route est épique, bosselé, pleine de compression<br />
et de virages sec... Pour gros coeur<br />
Cette célèbre épingle paraît bien plus serré en vrai;)<br />

Such a nice trip, a true pleasure for the eyes, even if "Col de l'épine" or "Col du Frêne" aren't the best playground for the Renault Clio, which prefers longer straights.<br />
No heatings, no problems what-so-ever and a lot of grip.<br />
<br />
Une
bien belle ballade pour les yeux, même si le col de l'épine ou la
descente du frène n'est pas le meilleur terrain de jeux de la clio qui
préfère les endroits plus adaptés à une boite longue.<br />
Aucune chauffe, aucun soucis, et beaucoup de grip.<br />
