Checking the Weather Before Climbing the Tourmalet
The Col du Tourmalet is one of the most famous climbs in cycling. For a ride like this, knowing the weather along the route before you start can make a big difference.
Florine checked the forecast with Epic Ride Weather before riding the Tourmalet. Seeing that it would be cool on the descent, she decided to bring a gilet.
For a big climb like the Tourmalet, the forecast at the start town only tells part of the story. As the road climbs, the conditions can change, and the weather at the top may be very different from where you started.
That is what Epic Ride Weather is built for. It shows weather conditions along your route, based on when you expect to be there, so you can make practical decisions before you roll out.
Florine also shared more from the ride here.
