The main reason I ride a FS in the Alps is that I can sit down on the more boring bits and save my legs. Lots of the singetrack runs have long farmer tracks to link back up to the lifts. If I was a really fit bugger, then a HT would be fine.
Having read this thread twice, then Alpin, my feeling is that you probably do not need a FS. If you're having that much fun, and have the legs to stand up when it's rough, why go FS?
Plus riding a HT must impress the people you're guiding!
Hey Jamie, yeh I did 2 tours that you guided out of maspalomas.. My names dave from Glasgow. It was the sketchy singletrack one on the Friday that I remember most. Great day out though! 🙂
hello mate.... you're the one who was boasting that you'd been snowboarding a few days prior to riding in GC. i remember.
fridays were generally the best day of the week out there! i can still "ride" the whole friday downhill in my head.
Yes mate, that was me.. It was a great route! Improved considerably since then! You could certainly throw that alpine about, only reason I think you'd need a full Suss is that it would make things a lot 'comfier' on the way down!
