After and few mates rode this last year I have signed up for this years event ;D It sounds like a good blast in some stunning scenery ;D ;D A choice of different start towns ensures that there are no bottlenecks! check it out but be quick as it does sell out fast www.passportesdusoleil.com/index.jsp?SDP_CHANGE_USERLANG=en# |

This sounds like a good one.. Me and a few mates did the VTT course last year...Plenty of good climbing and some nice bits of downhills too with some technical stuff thrown in... Well worth a crack.. We'll be back there this year...  |

WOW What a weekend's riding. My first time riding in the Alps and I'm sure it won't be my last. A cracking event with plenty to test everykind of rider. A cracking friendly atmosphere even more so than the Merida's. And with free food/beer/wine at every town it made for a great event.  Accomodation was at The Edge based 1 mile from Morzine which was truely majestic. Highly recommended ;D www.theedgemorzine.com/check out the link at the bottom for pics and some video |

Very Jealous m8, looks stunning, did you fly out? If you did who did you fly with and what was the score with taking the bikes? Also what happend to that lads face, looks a bit brutal Well I'll defo be flying next year! Fortunatly we had two of the guys who didn't mind the 19 hour So two people carriers with DVD loaded up saw us through. As for the injury's, the face was unfortunatly 15 minutes into the first ride. He hit a storm gully and got launched. And with no full face the damage was done. So it was a quick visit to the BS to hire a full face. Then a broken little finger for hyperbikerboy on the second day. Entries open in Feb 2010 so get in quick. |
