The Col d'Aspin is a regular feature of le Tour de France, and we attack it from the most frequently used side, on a sunny day. The boys of the Southwest Bike Academy, the Cyclery, and Nine2FivePro.com are fresh and checking out the climb, and each-other's fitness by pushing a relentless pace. Next up, the Hourquette d'Ancizan, a mountain "hidden" in a park-setting with no traffic. It appeared in le Tour for the first time in 2011. The pace is a little smoother with less attacking, until the summit is in sight, that is. Who could resist?
