Col du coq
Are you aware that the Tour de France passed the Col du Coq in 1984 and 1987? Too many cars following the race nowadays to allow for it again? Narrow road? Could you possibly post a few pix?
I have never climbed it which is a pity. I definitely have to earmark it for 2014.
Considering that the Geneva-Grenoble autoroute passes nearby it's just a question of remembering to stop on the way.
