Route de la Bonette

Route de la Bonette

A cracking morning on the highest paved through-road in Europe, the brilliant Route de la Bonette, which gets to 2802 m. as it runs round the Cime de la Bonette between the Alpes-de-Haut-Provence and the Alpes Martimes.
Cold but clear at the top, ice warning on the dash; motorbikers, sports cars and just a few doughty cyclists taking in the views from Savoie to the Mediterranean Alps.
The road was crowded out at one point with a swarm of three dozen bikes from the BMW Moto Club France. #BMWMCF
