Every cloud has a silver lining and this one is called the Col du Tourmalet 🙌🏻 @ Col du Tourmalet instagram.com/p/CT22p6DMzrE/… – at Sers, France
The serene slopes of Hourquette d’Ancizan and Col d’Aspin, sharing such moments as a group was something we never even considered to be anything but the norm. It sure feels good to be back on the road with friends! 🙌🏻 instagram.com/p/CTfqCjTsJuM/… – at Aspin-Aure, France

Last light over Lac de Cap de Long. Possibly the last time the road will be clear of snow now until the spring. What an exceptional place of raw beauty 🙏🏻 @ Lac de Cap-de-Long instagram.com/p/CIY61t0Fvp8/… – at Aragnouet, France
A quick Friday flashback to long summer days on the Tourmalet. Where ever you’re riding this weekend, remember those moments that made you smile and get after them. Enjoy! 💪🏻 @ Col du Tourmalet instagram.com/p/CIYRUouBdcr/… – at Sers, France
