Alps and Pyrenees
Discussion
Anyone know of any good websites besides http://www.alpineroads.com/ and http://www.bestbikingroads.com/ for planning a trip? I'm planning to take a week through the Alps to reach Nice, then the second week (via Milau) through the Pyrenees to Bilbao/Santander.

is the best i can find. when i was down that way in march all the roads where good. i stuck mainly to the spainish side of the border as fuel etc is cheaper. but just keep going up & you wont be disapointed.
ETA: almost forgot, when going back to santander can i suggest the 623 from Burgos. its a high dusty plain that reminds me of mexico on cowboy films. truely beautiful & a great ride. near the south end of the road is a gorge i parked in for the best part of an hour just watching huge birds of prey circling over the cliffs, looked like vultures to me but im no expert.
