right i think i'm going to abandon all revision... run to the ports claiming i am a stranded ex pat (at the age of 18 yes) due to the ash and rely upon the charity of some sailor to put me across the channel. While I, bike in hand, plot the latter stages of this plan to get me to the alps.

cheers, some cracking pics there!! Any more?

Argh! Can't ****ing wait!

How easy is it to find trails in places like verbier. I'm heading out with a mate...we are both riding full DH bikes, so going away from life access isn't going to be that easy, but we're both very keen to get away from the crowds.

Any tips?

The Tour de Mont Blanc with MBMB a few years ago...brilliant trip, I would happily do it again!

Some interesting weather, considering it was the first week in July!
[img] [/img]

You didn't say that they had to be ALL bikey!!
[img] [/img]

Awesome pics but wish i hadn't just seen them. Now my heart is aching and wondering how and when i'll get to ride these trails !

...and when the weather is rubbish, you can always hunt out a mountainside bar & watch nature do her thing over the Alps. This one was somewhere above Les Gets if I recall correctly. Starts with us sheltering from the rain for a...few beers...

I wish I could post more photos of Morzine- problem is I tend to love riding more than taking pics.
