Story by Michiel Schellekens from Ravels, Belgium, submitted on 14/07/2012

Mooi, pittige en lange klim - met prachtige uitzichten. Zeker een aanrader.

Gestart in Leysin - afgedaald naar Aigle - via Ollon naar de col de la Croix - daarna afgedaald tot in Le Sepey - doorgereden naar Col De Mosses - terug gedraaid op de top en terug naar Leysin.

79 km - 3u15min - 24 km/u gemiddeld

Story by Clay Carlson from Muskegon, United States, submitted on 19/07/2011

Started in Bex. Drizzle started in Villars and full rain by the summit; covered in fog. Descended on wet roads to Les Diablerets shaking so badly it was hard to control the bike. Two cups of coffee and dry out time was required prior to the trip back to Montreux via the Col de Mosses descent.
