		The mountain range known as the 'Alps' rises up from the Hungarian plains and soon becomes the majestic peaks of eastern Austria.
		This entire mountain range is very spectacular end to end; the Swiss and Austrian Alps are known for their alpine beauty, the northern French Alps are well known for their famous Tour de France venues, but the southern French Alps, or Maritime Alps, have gone relatively unknown.
		Impressive climbs, yes, but still it is the myriad of small roads with little or no traffic that make this one of the greatest cycling areas in Europe.

	Giuseppe Penone Cover Article for Sculpture Magazine, Dec. 2004
		He was born in Garessio, a small village near the Maritime Alps, where he began making his first experimental works with nature, the Alpi marittime (Maritime Alps), 1968-70.
		For Penone, the "space" of his peasant village, with its wooded surroundings, represented a harmonious blend of human life and nature, as opposed to Renaissance cities with their rational planning and overwhelmingly spectacular buildings.
		Meanwhile, the young Penone, who was studying art in Turin, brought one of the documentary photographs of his Alpi marittime (Maritime Alps) experiments to Sperone who casually displayed it in his gallery.

	PALANFRÈ, CUNEO - Hiking the Alps in Palanfrè.
		In contrast to the haze that normally envelops the valley of the Po from the western Alps to the Adriatic sea, that day the air was clear, seemingly pure.
		Looking westward, the whole arc of the western Alps could be seen gloriously basking in the midday sun, glittering from the snowcapped peaks; the massifs of the Mon Viso, the Gran Paradiso and the Monte Rosa were easily recognizable all in their majesty; surely a breathtaking scene.
		To see them in their immensity, the hunger for our destination grew sharper; we were now getting closer to Asti where the Piedmontese "Langhe" and hills start, covered by extensive vineyards that give us the famous red wines like Barolo, Nebbiolo, Grignolino, Dolcetto, Barbaresco and Asti spumante, just to name a few.

		Most of the remaining day is spent climbing similar roads as we ride through a remote and beautiful area of the Alps never used in the “Tour.” We will have wonderful vistas of the brilliant spring colors that will carpet the high mountain hillsides, especially on the Col du Noyer.
		This is not only a very beautiful gorge, it is also a 20km, winding, gradual descent, perfect for an exhilarating, high speed pace line.
		One can easily forget that someone had to build all these roads through the Alps, but riding up the Gorge de Daluis we are reminded that someone had to put this road here, as it winds through and around the dark red cliffs.

	The Maritime Alps - France
		It's common to be able to see how the Alps effect the weather here - normally clear on the French side, it is nearly always cloudy and grey (not raining) on the Italian side.
		Barcelonnette is also the gateway to one of the great routes of the Alps, the Cime de la Bonette.There are several claims as to the highest tarmacked pass in the Alps, but this one actually wins at 2802m, because the French cheated by building an otherwise useless loop above the actual pass.
		Even without those plus pints its sheer scale makes it one of the biker routes of the Alps.
