Anyone recomend one?

Not going as part of a group,

Don't want to spend my week climbing, but want to be able to access trails that aren't DH runs starting at the top of the chairlift, XC, but without the up's, so would need to be in a group of likeminded people with a guide.

Van assisted with [url= http://www.switch-backs.com ]Switch-backs XC mountain bike holidays in Sierra Nevada, Spain[/url]?

I've been 5 times with them. Van up the mountain, small bits of climbs to trailhead, descend all day on empty singletrack trails.

Just got back from 2 weeks with Bike Verbier, all day epics with some climbing. Highly recommended

Just looked at the switchbacks page, presumably the 3000m is over a week, otherwise thats one big hill to climb!

I've looked at the flow MTB morroco holliday before but couldn't justify it as my back was still quite weak and I was skint at the time, maybe next year.

2 weeks, I'm insanely jelous! *shakes fist in the general direction of non mountainbiking partner*

Bike Village, Les Arcs and La Plagne.

Use of legs or lifts on offer as they have two groups (or more) going out each day. I have been with them twice before and ejoyed each time. Highly recommended.

I spent weeks researching all the different Morocco trips and Cycleactive seemed to be by far the best for "proper" MTBing (and not just fire road trails) but worth EVERY penny.

Pretty much the type of riding we do.
Based on the coast in Southern Spain.
Great XC singletrack rides with plenty of uplifts. Lively night life on the coast at night.

Sierra cycling is exactly what you're after!
You can even finish the days ride with ice cream on the beach ๐Ÿ™‚
