About Col Agnel
The Col Agnel (2744 m) is the highest border pass between France and Italy and one of the highest paved passes in the Alps. From the French side through the Queyras it gets steeper and barer towards the top.
In rampida you ride the route exactly as it lies on the road: the gradient reaches your trainer metre by metre, the scenery is built from real elevation data and OpenStreetMap. A pacer group can pull you along, and next time you race your own ghost.
