Glandon, Croix de Fer, and back up

Cycling Route

Details
98.17 km
3,115 m
Pretty straightforward this one. Slog it up the Croix de Fer, once you reach the lake you've done the hard work so crank it up a gear and enjoy a sprint to the top. Turn around at the top and quickly get the Glandon, you're already there so why wouldn't you, and then roll back down. Finish off by taking the mellower route back up to Alpe d'Huez.
