The Col Informer

Cyclopaat’s life being what it is, this is yet another project dedicated to his idiotic cycling the Alps adventures.

On these pages, you will find info on the more ‘famous’ climbs he’s had the pleasure to die on himself.

Most of them were during his “Tour de France” or “Giro d’Italia” expeditions, but after having a Swiss Stage during 2015’s Giro, he also organized a “Tour de Suisse” in 2019.

The info you find on great sites like CyclingCols are often too generic – just profiles, which usually mean jack shit  – to give you the whole picture.

The guys at The Col Collective provide great short movies on them, in which it looks even easier to climb a giant like the Bonette, than Cyclopaat can possibly make up writing about it, so they’re added if available.

Anyway, click on a link for the corresponding page or, if you rather have or like pictures you can click instead, go to the interactive map.
