I think trying to plan a vacation with about 15 family members will do in my ambitions to participate in several events in was hoping to. [Violin please, I know ;) ]
Anyway, I (and one of my brothers-in-law) may be able to sneak away a day early and drive from Provence to the Pyrenees for an attempt at this year's Ariegeoise:
http://www.cyclosport-ariegeoise.com
This year I believe the ride will not finish on the Plateau de Beille like in 2005(I heard that is every other year) :crap: , but I have heard that it will take in the Port de Lers, Col D'Agnes (from both directions), the Col de Latrape, and the Col de Port for about 160km and 3600+ m of climbing.
Has anyone ridden this cyclosportive or any of these climbs?
