AP12: World of Motorcycling: Up the of Col de Bonette

the col de la bonette in the french alps (2802m above sea-level) is the highest point in europe, which you can reach on tarmac.
on the way up you pass what is left of ancient fortresses, which were built to protect the french border against italy in ww1.
thx to ms. gagova for allowing me to use tunes composed by her father and performed by the thracian ensemble of yambol/bulgaria.
