Nice clip. Fond memories of climbing those passes in the other direction years ago, including the final, small one they complained about. Sadly, it seems they rode so hard that it wasn't so much fun - when you can't remember where you are at the end you overdid it! But what do I know, 100 kms of that kind of cycling in one day is more than enough for me!
