About Col d'Izoard from Guillestre:
The route to Col d'Izoard from Guillestre offers a jaw-dropping warm-up through the canyon 'Gorges du Guil'. This is not the place to be afraid of heights. After the canyon you'll continue next to the river ‘Guil’ into the ‘Querays’ valley. After 16km you turn left and leave the beautiful valley. Your legs should be warm by now, ready for the stepper grades. For the next six kilometers, you have your goal Col d’izoard, right in front of you. You'll pass some nice alpine towns before the hairpins takes you up to an incredible view of 'Casse Deserte', a true classic in the history of road cycling. The remainder of the route offers some of the best road cycling you can imagine.

Adding music to the ride:
Most cyclists would agree that the ride to Col du Tourmalet is awesome. But when it comes to music opinions are very mixed. This is why we do not add music to our rides. We simply do not want to spoil your ride with music you do not like. But it is quite simple to add it yourself. Open an extra browser tab. Find a site that offers music (Spotify, CZcams, etc…) and pick the music you like and enjoy the ride...
Great ! It's a very good video. Thanks
…..and I have often wondered what Heaven could be like, now I know. Such magic scenery, great musical accompaniment, can’t wait to see what tomorrow will bring, for the past twenty minutes I have been “out of this world”. I don’t need holidays any more, just miss the foreign food and smells! Thanks, again.
Biking the world videos are AWESOME! My spin bike, my Amazon music and showing the video on my big TV make my livingroom the perfect place to see the world and stay healthy and safe at the same time! Thanks so much for these videos! Can't wait to see where I will go tomorrow!! Stay safe & healthy!!

Glad you enjoyed it :-)
Great landscapes. Thanks for share.
Did this monster climb tonight which was first used in 1920’ and later all on tarmac at the time with tour stages way over 300 km long ! Don’t know how they did it on the dirt road with two clusters and no gears ! Coppi , Bartali, and later Girondists, Merckx, Moser road this iconic climb
It’s very misleading since it shows average 4% for entire climb and you get the feeling , oh this will be so easy to do it only to find out some 10 k m in you start to see switchbacks with 7,8 and later 10% grades. It starts to bite withe last 5 km or so. There is false top some 3 km to go and you start descending at 10% and than go back up for last 2 km ditch to the finish line.
Lovely route not as steep as from Briancon but super scenic and long. I would do it again any day !
The landscape near the top remained me bit of the USA Utah and Arizona with column and tower rock formation , spectacular for the photographers.
Great job filming this and big thank you to Bike the Wold guys ! So far I have done about 10 of them and all I can say, magnificent work behind the video camera and steering wheel same time !
Les, you are right :-) The average on this climb is deceptive indeed.
Très belle qualité de vidéo, manque juste le pourcentage de la pente pour que cela soit parfait.
Merci pour votre commentaire. Beaucoup de nos abonnés préfèrent une «expérience de cyclisme pure» sans beaucoup de chiffres. Mais vous pouvez utiliser notre logiciel «Open Road» qui affiche de nombreux chiffres, y compris la pente.
great scenery, but for some reason spoilt it for me knowing it was not filmed on a bicycle.
No worries Andy, On this one we went cinema style and used a pro rig to capture the beautiful scenery with heavy pro equipment to get stable and high-quality footage. That kind of equipment is not possible to use on a bike ;-) You could try to search our channel for Lake Arre, Mont Ventoux, Covadonga, Alpe D'Huez, those may be more of your liking :-)
@@BiketheWorld However I looked and had followed your Aubisque climbing and you passed very fast between a big truck and the dangerous border how could you!? :-)
It doesn’t spoil the experience for me, rather the opposite. Occasionally I think of what the racing cyclists must be missing.
I am guessing that the idiots that scribble their love messages, and deface the road surfaces, are the same idiots that run alongside their idols, risking the lives and livelihoods of these supermen and women?
