February 20, 2025,Col de Portet d’Aspet et de Larrieu en boucle depuis Saleich

"Occitanie Gravel 600" configuration, bike, tent, and everything you need to travel independently. 16 kg, it's reasonable but it's still a bit too much, we'll see.

Sun. Demanding course with the last 4 km of the Portet d'Aspet pass being very tough.

This route starts on the rise of the Col de Portet d'Aspet. A first from Sangouagnet false flat, rather rolling to the Oule bridge. It's really hitting the mark with percentages over 10%!
