As can be seen from the map, I did a ride starting in Limoges, going clear across the Central Massif region, through Valence, and up through the French Alps to Geneva.

	The steepest part of the Central Massif ride
	Limestone cliffs, just outside Valence
	Climbing up into the Alps.
	Dam.
	Grenoble off in the distance.
	Just a few days ahead of the Tour de France.
	Reaching the snow line.
	Some serious altitude now.
	Mount Blanc.
