After spending 3 weeks in New Zealand Cycling I am a little fitter and lighter than normal for this time of year so todays ride up Alpe d’Huez went quicker than expected. For the record I recorded a time of 62minutes 56 seconds and while this is over 10 minutes slower than my fastest time ever it is some 10 minutes faster than I have ever achieved in the winter months here in the Oisans.
