Montpier, welcome. Glad you found the thread. My wife and I used to do stupid things like that too; on one trip we did an "Alps Pre-Tour" as warmup for Paris-Brest-Paris. We did some citizen racing but mostly it was long distance stuff, brevets mainly. The thing I remember most is the smell of diesel cars; I get nauseous at the scent to this day. The other thing I remember is how courteous the drivers were, being careful when overtaking on the way up and pulling over to the let the bikes by on the way down.
