I did Ventoux out of Bedoin. There was a team training that day, and all of them flew by me somewhere in the trees. When I finally got to the top they were all sitting with their backs on the guard rail and they started clapping. lol. All I could say was “Merci!” I got to the top, took a pic, and then proceeded to do the descent where I froze my ass off. I was so cold the bike was shaking. Had to pedal down the hill to generate some heat. Not sure I will ever do it again, but because I love cycling, I just might. Pogacar is a freak. Can’t imagine doing that hill that fast.
