About Col du Sabot - Hidden Gem of Isère
No far away from the Hollywood climb to Alpe d'Huez, you will find the climb to Col du Sabot. It is a hidden gem in an area littered with world-class rides. Compared to Alpe d'Huez it has much fewer cars, is quiet and serene, is more challenging, takes you higher, and much closer to nature. The ride starts with a 7 km/ 4.3 mi warm-up that takes you to Allemond and a huge dam. You get to ride next to the dam before the actual climb begins. Right from the beginning of the climb, you will experience very few cars. The gradient will mostly be around 8-10 percent. As you get higher you'll pass a huge waterfall. The higher you get, the more rewarding is the scenery. The views are amazing and in a distance below, you can see the dam from the warm-up.
You can find the climb on Strava: / strava

Just add music:
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 recommend adding your favorite music to the ride. It is quite simple. Mute UA-cam and open a browser window. Find a site that offers music (Spotify, UA-cam, etc…) and pick the music you like, and enjoy the ride... The original sound of the ride has been left out. This is because the natural sound of the surroundings is drowned by noise from passing cars, vibrations from the road, wind, and the rider's breathing.

This was incredible. Thanks.. I could almost smell the cows by the side of the road.
floral bouquets and cows, amazing ride, magnifique, merci!
This is my favourite climb in the Oisans. Climbing there with no cars, no cyclists, only cows around me, was amazing. What a stunning climb! (Not a fan of the descent though)
It must be Bradley Wiggins making these videos. This rider with the camera NEVER gets passed.
Precisely!! Based on feedback from many subscribers, we learned many prefer the speed of a Strava KOM rider for our ride along videos. For those that like to ride at their own speed we recommend using our app Open Road.
Brings back lots of great memories, i've ridden it 5 or 6 times, amazing views from the top, looking back from where you came and looking over the top to the Glandon/Coix der Fer
Awesome, thank you.
Yep: definitely one of my favourites IRL
A totally awesome ride, just next to Alpe d'huez... But few knows about this ride....
Its Amazing.
This video makes me want to go there...and I am going to...Thanks a lot!
You should!
Nice and pacefull place!! Thanks.
Excellent video, yet again. As you said, it;s crazy being so close to Alpe d'Huez and hardly anyone on it. I include myself as I did Alpe d'Huez in summer of 2019. I also did the Croix de Fer and would have passed the turn off for the Sabot - now on the "to do" list when we get to travel again
I loved your video. I put on Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto #2 and set off for the ride. I love the smooth image you've created, it's a lot better than many videos out there. I like too, the simple image, uncluttered with speed, grade, distance, time, etc. Sometimes I like that, but sometimes it's nice to just enjoy the view and set my own pace. I'm a huge fan of riding in France, so thanks for introducing me to a new area....
Great video of a beautiful route. Thanks for all your videos. They make lockdown exercising (almost) enjoyable. 😁
Thank you very much!
Thanks👍🚴🏻♂️
Thank you for sharing. I think I'll stick to the down-hill part ;o)
wow! Beautiful
Quels merveilleux paysages,il ne manque peut être que le son.
Bonjour correzien bonjour France bonjour Baptiste j'aime bien Les routes très jolie adore boucoup paysage manifique ville et villages très jolie vidéo super manifique j'adore boucoup fait rêver de tout les cœur 💓❤️👍❤️ sentiments distingués à bientôt Merci 💌💞💕💓
One of the best climbs in Isère with col de Sarenne, la Bérarde, Notre Dame de la Salette and Relais du Serpaton.
There was a rumor about a green way to link Col du Sabot with Col de la Croix de Fer.
Thanks Raphael. A green way would awesome. Love la Bérade and Col de Sarenne (will publish them on this channel). Notre Dame de la Salette and Relais du Serpaton looks fantastic :-)
Thank you for this upload, without question my favourite climb of all time !
Yeah, it is pretty amazing, and it is crazy that it is so close to Alpe d'Huez, perhaps the most popular climb in the world... And this ride has so few riders and is such a stunning ride.
This and Villard-Notre-Dame my 2 favourite climbs from Bourg
@@adriantimmis9286 You surely know what you are talking about. We look forward to add the ride to Col du Solude via Villard-Notre-Dame
@@BiketheWorld So many great climbs from Bourg that people miss out on, but i suppose it makes them nice and quiet for the rest of us.
@@adriantimmis9286 Yeah Bourg is a great cycling base. Love it :-)
So beautiful! I wasn't prepared for this though. it was incredibly hard. That narrow road was way longer than I thought!
So tired 😂
Thanks a lot for sharing 👍 👍
Well done :-)
@@BiketheWorld I read the other negative comments. I can't believe it.
You provide amazing free videos without pop-up ads in it.
If they think you're going too fast on the road, youtube have the option to slow down the speed of the video!
Anyways, it sounds to me like excuses to not exercise 😂
@@blackvx Thanks Michael, your comment is much appreciated. The speed has been set in accordance with the fastest riders so the ride isn't boring, and you are right that speed can be adjusted in the lower right corner, and we also have an app that adjusts the speed according to the rider. So everybody can have it as they like :-)
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed riding it on my Kickr and what a beautiful day for it! Looks like a tough climb, hopefully I get to do it for real next time
much more beautifull and much garder than Alpe D'huez
Great video. Would be better with sound and maybe music though. Good to work out to
Hi Graham, Thank you for your feedback. Glad you liked this video :-) The videos are produced for our indoor cycling app where the speed is adjusted according to the speed of the rider. So for that purpose sound is not needed. As a courtesy, we also publish them here on UA-cam. We do our best to make our subscribers on UA-cam happy. But unfortunately, it is not always possible to include sound. Often vibrations are transplanted into the microphone and make the sound quality unbearable. Despite we use a wind muff, the high speed also creates a bad sound quality. You can read more in the description of our videos. The quality of royalty-free is not always good, so it takes a lot of time to find the right music. That means we can produce three videos without music instead of one with music. We did try to add music to our Alpe d'Huez ride, but it did not seem to make any difference to our subscribers. I guess most like to add their favorite music.
Love your videos. Thank you. You seem to ride alone and your speed seems to be so always the same. How come? Also, your camera seems to be very high up overhead. What's your setup? Can you show us a image of that?
Hi Piere, thank you for your interest. For optimal realism, the camera is precisely from the rider's point of view, not from the handlebar.
Beautiful countryside but it was like going up on your motorcycle. I appreciate it is the best way for you to mass produce all the climbing and other videos but it doesn't feel realistic. What other names are your videos under? Thanks
Thanks Luc, It is a hard call. Many like the videos to be fast in alignment with the fastest riders and not to be bored. Others like it slower in accordance with their own speed. To make everybody happy we have made an app which follows the speed of the individual rider.
@@BiketheWorld Yes I read that there was an app to regulate the speed after I posted. Probably a good option. You seem to have all the perfect elements in there, quiet safe road, beautiful scenery and it felt almost like a normal ride. Here’s something I do when I am riding. I add my speed and grade together and try to ride at that number. For example, if grade is 5,6,or 7% I try to ride at a speed to equal ‘20’. So 5%+15kph=‘20’. 6%+14kph=‘20’. 7%+13kph=‘20’. (A pro would probably be closer to ‘30’ and for 8,9, and 10% he would be closer to ‘26’ or ‘27’ and me ‘16 or ‘17’). If you could film like that it would give a more realistic feeling in the grade changes while watching the video. (And stay out of the cow patties-that was one of the clues you weren’t riding a bike.)
@@lucp252 Thanks Luc, when we know the individual rider's power output and weight we can adjust the speed accordingly to the gradient. To us, that is the most realistic form of indoor training. Unfortunately, not everybody does not have a power meter or a smart trainer, so we share these videos as a courtesy so fellow cyclists around the world have a chance to experience these amazing rides.
I LOVE your videos, but I do like to hear the sounds of the road, don't care if it's the rider breathing, cars passing, vibration from the road, water noise from a river, the wind in my ears, that's what makes it more real. If people want music, then they can just mute the video, and play music. I can play music anytime I want, but If I want a great indoor ride experience, I like to hear the noises from the actual ride.
So happy you like our videos :-) I do understand your wish, and we are getting better at providing real ride sound. However, it is not always possible. We have done numerous tests with microphones, and the sound quality has not been at par with the picture quality. We are still experimenting and hopefully, we will soon find a way to solve this problem.
What is the gradient like after the village of Vaujany? Different sites have different grades.
You can give our app Open Road a spin. You can ride the entire route and you will get data such as gradient during you ride.
@@BiketheWorld I can find no such app on the play store...
@@jamestalkscycling No worries, if you read the description of the ride. You can read more about our app. Currently it is available for windows, But we are working on making it available for more platforms.
@@BiketheWorld thanks! Does it give the average and max from Vaujany to the top of bottom of the climb? Looking at doing it in July amd know the Vaujany climb but not after the village.
@@jamestalkscycling It gives you the ability to ride through the entire route and you can see the gradient for yourself...
Non decolla come spettacolarità e risulta troppo monotono.
..
Obviously done from a vehicle therefore completely unrealistic. If I could ride this fast I wouldn't need to train!
No worries, It follows the speed of the fastest riders on Strava.
