I would like to hear about riders experiences as an un-supported group and in particular the hire of a local mtb guide.
The snow storm that killed 43 people last October:

The Yak Attack that roughly follows the Annapurna Circuit:

Perhaps start with Pokhara MTB club if you wanted leads for a good guide, or email the Yak Attack organisers who will also have good contacts.
Or Google dawn til dusk kathmandu, sonam or chimi will sort u out a guide. As will tangi a French Corsican who has a business out there for about 10 years, from memory Nepal MTB xc or look him up on fb tango rebours. Sonam and chimi are from the Annapurna circuit region.
Advice? Busy bee's bar on Pokhara's lakeside is the best bit of advice I can give!
Tangi is pokhara mtb club, same. Good bloke.
Thanks Guys
I will check out the leads and let you know
Cheers
Another thread on a similar angle probably worth a scan too:

Tangi is rather loosely associated with Pokhara these days AIUI - he's now based in Kathmandu. This is his website these days:
