Just recently surmounted the Bedoin ascent of Mont Ventoux in just under 90 mins. I think this was a fairly good time, though people can correct me on that. Has anyone else done it? I think I could've gone a bit faster because I only really started suffering in the last 3 km. 2 days before I had ridden a 11km climb and that kind of broke me in to the world of never ending ascents. Part of the reason also why the pain was mitigated slightly was the fact that I couldn't believe I was actually riding this mythical beast.
I'd like to hear of anyone else's experiences.

Next summer I would like to try the Stelvio.

For now though, I will count myself lucky that I would never want to attempt this climb:
