A nice riding day around Grenoble

[Delphisa]

Wow! Fantastic pictures, Jean-Pierre. I agree with the Ferret: it is awesome looking country to ride in. I really like the final picture before the map on your Picasa site. Is that Grenoble? It looks magical with those mountains surrounding it.

Yes, Grenoble. I took that picture at our last stop, on the final slope before arriving in the valley. There was a good light over the town, while mountains stayed a little bit cloudy all day long.
Grenoble in not in altitude (about 200 m) but surrounded by 3 montain ranges. The one on the picture is Chartreuse, north of the town, 2000 m high on top peaks (those touching the clouds, this day...).

I am quite happy I found a job here after my studies. Don't think I will move again now !
