Limoux ride

Just a short outing through the vineyards of Limoux - most famed for the sparkling 'blanquette' which predates Champagne by a century. As with the three cols I did in the Auvergne, these short climbs have also featured on the Tour. They really are quite small, however, and I climbed the Col du Loup initially before the Cote de St Nazaire took me down to that little wine village before heading back on the unpleasant main Carcassonne road.
