Last September, guided by a sudden idea, we put the bikes in the car and went out to the French Alps to climb some good passes. The French part of the Alps had been left out until then, so we were happy to go, even if the five days (in a row) without a rest didn't seem easy. It turned out to be a very good tour, Bonette, Huez, Galibier (my favorite) and the rest. We loved every meters of it, I wrote about it on my blog. When I ended my article last autumn saying "we will definitely come back next year, because we missed a lot of good places", then we really meant it. The comeback This year, as fate would have it, the summer family vacation converged towards France and the Cote d'Azur, and the little wives were kind enough to allow us a few days in the Alps afterwards, so we could combine the relaxation with a little bike ride. Of course in moderation :-) The French Riviera is not known for its iconic cycling places, although we guessed (and knew a little bit) that there would be good places there. A Tour also started from here in 2020 (this is signposted in all better places) and after all this is almost the Alps. Our accommodation was near Nice, and we could 3 bike rides in one week. Monaco Of course, we first tour to the best view of the area, we looked at Monaco and the small villages in the area (Éze, Turbie, Peillon). Of course, we went to Mote Carlo, we went almost all the way around the F1 circuit. I'm not a big Formula 1 fan, I don't even know it all, but even I was know this track, it was a pleasure
