Just back from an ace week biking in italy with these guys. ..all very last minute but was really good. Did 5 very hard days of freeriding with a bunch of cool chaps from bury. Cheap booze/food and just beautiful country… Thanks Jo and Ady for looking after me…

Oooo I’m thinking about going with these guys: Did you do the shuttle/freeride package? How was it? What sort of bike did you take?

Yep I did a few climbs but not many… Uplifts most days. I took a five pro but a set of 36s and a full face lid would be a prerequisite( I dented my new xar) a lot of over the bar type issues…. Was totally ace!

Cool. I have an SX Trail I would probably be taking.

What was the accommodation like? Was it fairly social?

Sorry about all the Qs

Just how “hard” are the days?
Food ok? People nice?
How much cash did you get through?

Hotel was very good,5 courses a night.people are really friendly…
I found it very tough but I’ve not ridden much this year so hence the rustiness.. I feel a bit fitter which is good!https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/sredir?uname=mtbste&target=ALBUM&id=5757690715493745185&authkey=Gv1sRgCMuo7OPq6srBPw&feat=email
