I did a good portion of this ride in July when I first came into Geneva in advance of riding a few Tour stages. Previewed your Passy and Joux Plane videos before doing those (thank you), but Saleve ended up being my favorite day of riding.
Haaallo Sir! I remembered your video when you joined the Tour Des Stations 2023. I joined TDS too last year (2023) and mount saleve was my training ground for TDS. It is indeed a challenging climb especially croisette side. But, it is a very good place to train. Don't get fooled of the avg gradients written it is harder in person. 🤣 Thanks for featuring my favorite climbs. 😁 Do the La Baudichone and La Barillette next! And do an extra Saint Cergue. It is in jura mountain and happy to guide you if you're around geneva. 😄
Not sure why I haven't done this ride before. Quiet roads, stunning scenery and a challenging day out! Drop any questions below. Cheers Mike 🚴🚴
I must do that cable car, I see it so often when travelling to and from Geneva, stunning views ! Thanks for sharing Mike, looked tough!
Looks a great route!
Epic! Not sure why I haven't done it before.
i did one fact of this and it destroyed me, good man!
Thanks for watching! Some of the climbs are easier than others !!

Good discovery. I think the Saleve is mainly used by locals. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching - I'll check those climbs out
My Home mountain! Strangely I usually climb it a fifth way .... via Col du Mont Sion and St Blaise (it joins up with the Cruseilles side).
yes I did that a while back with a mate but just on its own! Drive past the Saleve most days - great mountain and quiet!
