Col du Mollard

Its not often you get to bag a new col in November in the Alps but yesterday I completed for the first time the Col du Mollard just over the top of the Col de la Croix de Fer. Both of these climbs feature in stage 11 of the 2012 Tour de France and I took the opportunity to investigate the Col du Mollard in preperation for our Etape du Tour Week in June 2012.
