The campsite at La Fouly makes an excellent starting point
Setting off in perfect weather
The climb to Grand Col Ferret is tough but largely rideable - 1000m in around 10km
There was a lot of snow on the cols in June
Malin is particularly pleased at reaching Grand Col Ferret
Is there a better place to be on a mountain bike? Descending to Courmayeur
After a long day in the saddle a brief cool down before the final push to the refuge
Looking back from Refugio Elisabetta
Elisabetta was spectacularly situated, which didn't quite make up for the overcrowded sleeping
The summit of Mont Blanc glistens in the sunshine
Getting up early meant seeing Marmotts
More snow at Col de La Seigne
Another snaking descent to Les Chapieux
Losing all that height on the road descent of Cormet de Roselend seems a shame
No complaints here - the Tour du Beaufortain sections were deserted and beautiful
There's some very different riding on the Petit Balcon Nord in Chamonix
Perfect!
The botanic garden in Champex
Champex le Lac
The TMB walking route is very well waymarked
The final climb to La Fouly
