Since 1999, 'Le Géant' has waited at the top of the Mythical Col to pay tribute to those who dare to attempt its summit on two wheels. Each winter Le Geant relinquishes the summit to the skiiers. But, once the snow clears, he makes his way back up. For the next 5 months, hundreds will attempt the most notorious of the Tour de France climbs. |
