Marseille Cyclosportif Route

There really isn't a formal name for the route that John, Honza and I did yesterday.  It's a variation on a cyclosportif ride/race John did outside of Marseille last summer.  Total distance was just over 70 miles, but with 6 major climbs and about 7000 vertical feet. 

I'm calling this ride the Baconator, because it's is to a climbing route what the Baconator is to hamburgers.  If you're going to be critical of my paltry power output keep in mind I did Col de la Madone the day before as part of a 50 mile loop.
