Yes it was La Marmotte, and I am riding a Giant TCR Zero with Campagnolo Record 10 speed.
This was by far the most difficult ride of my life, ever. The riders in the Tour de France make it look easy, but that I guess is television for you... the reality is pain, pain,pain and more pain. I think my face says it all. Here is a pick from the day before, training up Alpe du Huez.
