Has anyone ridden the Col de Bonette from Jausiers? I am looking for info about road quality,
perceptions of the difficulty of the route, scenery, etc. I have a chance to ride up and over
from Jausiers to perhaps St. Etienne de Tinee one day in the latter part of June. I will have a
follow car for drop off and pickup and was wondering about how long it would take. Granted, it
depends on the riders fitness, just looking for a general estimation of time (trying to talk my
wife into the detour to do it). Just for comparison, I have ridden the Ventoux from Sault in 1:30
hours and ALpe d'Huez in 1:05 so you can see I'm not fast and I wouldn't want an all out effort,
rather would be looking to enjoy the climb. Any info on the two villages on each end? I've
checked out the climb profile.
Thanks in advance for any helpful info, Tony
