A big ride with Stef!

We rode from Bourg over Telegraphe, into the Maurienne and then back over Glandon. Highlights were running into Hank in the Maurienne and watching Romain Bardet -- a contender for the Tour zoom past us on Telgraphe and then seeming him again on the bottom part of the Toussuire climb.
