Stunning. The only word yo describe it. We left the Bates hotel at about 9.10 this morning which is pretty early for us. Wrapped up warm because we knew we would be climbing high and it was going to get cold. At the highest point there is a cafe which the photos below were taken. Here we stopped for a very expensive cup of tea. You then decend into Brig passing from Italy to Switzerland. The thing that is immediately noticeable is how much more affluent the Swiss are. Lots of new bikes, Ferrari garages etc. No one speeds over here either. I assume the penalties adjust the mind a little bit.
Nothing lost yet today but Edwards is still putting is helmet on at least twice.
