Hmmmmmmm... bit of a cold snap in Europe. Lucky it's only going to last couple of days!
Monday 24 April 2017
Nothing like first Tourmalet of the year to clear the effects of a weekend of slight excess 
Lovely day for it! 
Wednesday 18 January 2017
Driving up to La Mongie after fresh snowfall. 4x4 on snow tyres is pretty impressive here. Feels like a normal day 
Saturday 14 January 2017
Random views from the local roads we travel almost daily. Ever changing mountain scenery never disappoints!
Friday 13 January 2017
Pratiwi didn't want to go for a short stroll today, but after being talking into it, turns out it was fun!
Friday 13 January 2017
Looks like there's been a nearby accident involving a truck of icing sugar & it's blown all over the place!
Monday 19 December 2016
Lac de Gaube. Frozen. Wow! View aside, sound of the ice popping & cracking echoing around was absolutely incredible!
Monday 19 December 2016
So... the alternate walking route from Pont d'Espagne up to Lac de Gaube. Almost as pretty as the summer path?
Monday 19 December 2016
Stroll at Pont d'Espagne: But 10m in & we found path covered in thick ice. No crampons so time to find another way!
Monday 28 November 2016
Afternoon stroll: Col de Beyrede to ridge above. Just made snow line. Spectacular & one of the best short walks here!
Sunday 18 September 2016
First snow of the season fell on the Pic du Midi couple days back & more yesterday by the looks. #ViewFromOurDoorstep
Wednesday 4 May 2016
First Tourmalet ascent of the year. Last 3km closed to cars, but not bikes! As usual, sucks to be a car driver! 
Tuesday 26 April 2016
When in Provence... 3° up top + 70kph wind chill equals completely numb fingers on the descent. Fun times!
Sunday 24 January 2016
Views of today's ride. Unseasonably warm so popped up the Col du Soulor - as you do Nice snowy view at the top!
Saturday 19 December 2015
Today's ride in glorious sunshine: Col du Tourmalet. Well... as much as was possible. Didn't bring my skis!
Saturday 5 December 2015
Live segments test at Hautacam. Verdict: Absolute torture! Spectacular day: wearing shorts & just 2 layers up top!
Tuesday 24 November 2015
Crisp morning here! Walking into the village for a look around.
Monday 24 August 2015
Tourist road 520 from Røldalsvatnet (lake way below the hairpins) to Sauda. Almost got blown over taking last shots!
Sunday 23 August 2015
Rest of today's ride (Hildal to Hara): Stunning mountain pass left traffic free as main road now runs in a tunnel!
Friday 7 August 2015
At least Pratiwi dressed for the conditions! Nice shoes!
Friday 7 August 2015
Crossing the highest mountain pass in Norway. Snow & iceberg strew lakes abound. And this is the middle of summer!
Wednesday 29 July 2015
Rode from fjord 1,500m up to Dalsnibba, where on a clear day should be able to see the start. Not today, too misty 
Monday 21 January 2013
Passing through Lincoln so stopped by the cathedral. Unlike most over in France there's no free entry here though
Sunday 20 January 2013
Oh no... not another pub lunch! This time it's Barton's Mill. And a snowy stroll by the river after. Nice!
Thursday 3 January 2013
My lil' snow angel
Thursday 3 January 2013
La Cascade d'Ars, in a semi-frozen state. And the view below. Well worth the hour or so walk.
Thursday 3 January 2013
Hiking up to Cascade d'Ars. Passing other small streams then snow (sometimes deep) above 800m or so. Awesome walk!
Saturday 29 December 2012
Sunrise on moving day. Time to follow these lights down the mountain and then on to our next destination...
Friday 28 December 2012
Final morning here & this is better! 7+ hours on the piste to finish the week. Hurrah!
Thursday 27 December 2012
Snow outside the chalet this morning. Popped out for couple of hours, but rest was probably due. Had lazy afternoon.
Monday 24 December 2012
Back from the slopes in time for a little fun outside the chalet
Saturday 22 December 2012
As night begins to fall... ♫ ♪ Let it snow, ♩ let it snow, ♪ ♫ let it snow ♫
Saturday 22 December 2012
Some time after arriving in Les Menuires we finally find the chalet... this looks promising!
Friday 14 September 2012
Messing around at Passo del Gavia. Pratiwi showing how to throw &... erm... 'catch' snowballs. And make a snowman
Wednesday 8 February 2012
Pratiwi posing in the snow in Dad's garden. Does this mean we're acclimatised now?
