Road Bike rentals Col du Tourmalet & experience the French Pyrenees on an E Bike!
The Col du Tourmalet is the most climbed mountain in ‘the Tour de France history.The mountain already has been in more than 80 times in the Tour. In 1910 the 2115 meter high monster mountain was climbed to Bayonne during the 10th stage in the Tour de France. Octave Lapize was first encountered there and walked even partially the climb down. He also seems “You are murderers” to have called. What is not very special during that stage was one of the seven climbs of the 326 km long stage. The Tourmalet means something like a wrong road or a bad detour, but most climbers find the climb spicy but great.
The climb starts quite calm and builds up and the higher you get the heavier it will be. The first kilometers you cycle through the woods which still provides some shelter soon it gets heavier and you come to beautiful views and landscapes. The Tourmalet can be climbed from 2 sides via the eastern side. You lay 17.1 km of which 1255 altimeters. And a 7.3% average rate of increase, of which especially the last kilometers can run up to 10%. And from the west side you cover 18.6 km with 1405 altitude meters and 8 hairpin bends. You will find an average increase of 7.5%, especially here it gets heavy in the final kilometers with even a small piece of 13.5%
