We're having trouble getting out shopping as the road up the Ventoux is closed for four days for a feast of velo and motorsport. Thursday was the Ventoux stage of the Dauphine Libere, Tain le Hermitage to Mont ventoux summit on a bike ouch averaging 25 miles an hour total length 184km and this weekend sees the CHAMPIONNAT DE FRANCE du Montagne- Le Mas des Vignes to the Summit in under 4 minutes. Ruth and I had a little inpromptu lunch at St Colombe and watched the cars roar past on their way up for the practise sessions - very noisy! I took some videos on Ruths little camera there was quite a selection vintage to formula ford.. I'll try and put them up later meanwhile....
this is an on board camera clip from a previous year camera
more photos and videos here from 2005..
