Nice descent of the Petit Saint-Bernard pass, I film Daniele and Jean-Louis in the laces, at full speed. The light is still beautiful.

Another stop: another bolt goes out and rubs on a disc:
Fortunately, the arrival on Aoste makes forget the heat and the worries:

A warm atmosphere awaits us at Casa Don Angelo Carioni refuge, we will sleep 3km from the pass.
Battery empty and mounted “on the pedal” was the lot of Thierry, he is acclaimed by all suntripeurs at table:
