1000 miles, 94000 ft climbing, 12 days riding + 2 rest days
August 27th to September 11th - Yearly.
Day 11 of the Pyrenees cycling trip: Collioure to Castlenaudary. Pictured above is the eastern end of the Pyrenees mountains, as we make a diagonal run, direction north-west, from the Mediterranean back towards the Atlantic. On the ride back we will stay mostly just north of the Pyrenees. Ride stats for the day: 125 miles, 5,830 ft. of climbing. Major climbs of the day...a lot of long rolling hills. This is the longest ride of the trip, but again you just had a rest day!
