The great passes were built for armies, and Freeston went up them on a bicycle. He rides the cols with the enthusiasm of a man convinced a mountain is best understood at four miles an hour uphill, and describes the hairpins, the hotels, the descents and the weather of an Alps just opening up to anyone who could pedal.
