Rolling south from Vevey (CH) to Sisteron + train to Marseille (FR) with my custom cargo called Saccagette/Voyagette, through the Alps one pass at a time. Been hauling over some big climbs and soaking in the views — the bike’s heavy, the legs are cooked, but the smile is still on.
Currently somewhere between Vallard and Sisteron. If you’re in the zone and feel like swapping road stories, sharing a coffee/drink, or spinning a few km together, hit me up.
Also, a tip: skip the Briançon → Gap stretch if you can. It’s a truck-heavy national road (90 km/h), and the bike path could be in a better shape.

Absolutely crushing it, surprised by the size of the cassette – could imagine a 11-51 would do wonders.
Very rad, very cool, keep it up!
I see photos like this with gears like that in the Alps and cry at the fact that everyone seems to be an absolute cycling machine and I struggle on some UK hills with MTB gear ratios 😭😄
Looks like a stunning trip though 👏
Fantastic pictures, love the bike.
