Bedoin is the classic climb, and if you want to gawk at l’émetteur, then definitely, Bedoin. Malaucene is more scenic though.
- Role: subject
- In the article: A photo post with a short caption. The author compares the two sides of the climb: Bédoin is the classic and passes the transmitter mast (l’émetteur), Malaucène is more scenic. He rode down the Bédoin side because he needed coffee beans.
- Why it matters: The mountain is the entire post, though the text says little more than this comparison.
- Real vs. fictional: The post says only “Ventoux”; the mountain, its Provence setting and the summit pin come from the place names and Wikipedia.
