Day Nine: St-Giron to Tarascon

A perfect day in the Pyrenees. Another two big climbs (Col de Latrape and Col d'Agnes) over 1900m over 85 kms. 

Lunch was a very civilised plat du jour next to an alpine lake at the top of the second climb, followed by a great descent and time trial run into Tarascon-sur-Ariege, our destination for the day. 

Another day...another great chateau (www.manoiragnes.com).

Col count: 27 completed out of a total of 37

Rolling out of St-Giron
This is for Bob..unfortunately we were too early for lunch
Beautiful views over the Ariege Pyrenees
A great spot for paragliding
It's not much...but we call it home (for a night)
