It works out quite well though with 3k of gain every 100km. We split it up based on not sleeping above 1000m altitude if possible, since we were camping most times

Planning on sleeping out at least a couple of times but refuges rather than hotels if at all possible when I decide I need a bed. Just checked and there's approx 15 hours of daylight so I think as long as I avoid ruining myself too badly on the climbs, I don't need to hurry. Got 7 days to get to Nice plus a couple extra to ride back before my flight.

Yeah, for that route. Seems likely I can get into Italy in July so just working out a more realistic itinerary as my current one is just arbitrary chops based on towns not distance or elevation.
