The very first Tour de France mountain
stage included the Col d’Aubisque and
the Tourmalet. It was considered the stuff
of nightmares.
Today it’s a cycling playground.
The Aubisque has been described as the
most beautiful road in Europe, if not the
world. I don’t know about the world, but if
you only ride one road in these Pyrenean
mountains, this is the road to ride.
