Better late than never – last epic ride, Alpe d’Huez and balcony road

We had our last ride of the trip Wednesday. I had lousy internet service so it was impossible to post anything, so this one is a little late!

Our last ride was a trip up Alpe d’Huez followed by a beautiful ride along a balcony road. The total mileage was just over 60 miles, with nearly 6000 feet of climbing. It was a long day in the saddle, but the views were definitely worth it!

We arrived home late Friday afternoon and immediately went to bed! Saturday morning we got up and rode Mt. Baldy – our “favorite” mountain ride in California to see how we would feel. We both set PRs going up so I would say it was a good day!

I’ll post more about the overall trip and more pics at a later time. There is so much to share and I want to do it  justice!
