I love mountains. The wackier and more impossible laid-out, the better. So. Maritime Alps. Home of the balcony roads and a haven for those who love wacky and near-impossible mountain layouts. You see, I've been here before, so I know what to expect. And I'm excited to go again. Destination area is somewhere between Nice in the south-east and Grenoble in the north-west. Looking at the map, you'd not expect much, because it's just greenish and rural countryside - but you'd be wrong! What it is, is tourist-deserted geology put on display for the adventurous few who dare ride onto single-lane roads, set on steep cliffside - sometimes set IN cliffside as it approaches vertical. With occasional guardrails :) It's something to see. It's spectacular!
