Contemporary cycling photography of the great European cycling climbs. Including iconic climbs of the Pyrenees, the Dolomites, and the French, Italian, and Swiss Alps. From the Passo Stelvio to the Col du Galibier, the Col du Tourmalet to the Col d'Aubisque. This contemporary photography captures the fundamental essence, beauty, and grandeur of these famous mountain passes, featured every year in the Tour de France, the Tour de Suisse, and the Giro d'Italia.
It's important to understand that cyclists are fanatics. It comes with the territory. Don't expect them to be normal. For a bike rider, cycling 27km. up a mountain for no apparent reason is normal. They do it for the challenge. They do it because they can, for the thrill of it, for the kudos, for the buzz. For the sense of elation that comes with being in the middle of a landscape so impressive it takes your breath away. To know without a shadow of a doubt, this is a good day, a great day, a day to remember, a day that counts.
All our photography prints are fine art Giclée prints printed on 308gsm Hahnemühle fine art paper. They are of the highest quality, bleach-free, and will last many years. All prints are bespoke, hand-printed to order products. Please allow a few working days for printing and dispatch.
Considering the immense scale of the mountains, an A1 print size is recommended for these pictures.
Set your alarm well before dawn to climb Mont Ventoux. The heat rises faster than you in the summer months.
You won't be alone. From every direction, riders appear, lights blinking in the soft dawn light before the rising sun.
It's a great time to be alive, don't be late.
Mont VentouxClimbing the Sa Calobra is tough, but not too tough. It's hot, but usually not too hot. It's definitely a challenge, but one that leaves you feeling physically and mentally on top of the world. The air is sweet and smells of the sea. Going up or down, it's as close to paradise on a bike as you're ever likely to find.
