Any tips?
Book early....
Fit big tyres, dh tubes and ride down some mountains. Helps if you like ham and cheese. Have fun.
Book now.
There's quite a few STWers going. I've never been before but it should be a laff. I'm not even quite sure what happens, apart from riding down mountains!
Just seen this on the website -
[i]Already 1100 rgistered bikers !!!
The number of places is limited. Morzine and Les Gets starting point are now closed for the saturday's start.
You can find places:
Saturday's start: Avoriaz, Châtel, Torgon, Morgins, Champéry
Sunday's start: Morzine, Les Gets, Avoriaz, Châtel, Torgon, Morgins, Champéry[/i]
Book early for sure... is a great event, enjoy the views on the way up, grin like a Loon all the way down, remember to go easy on the Leffe the night before you ride tho!
They have Leffe?
Oh shoot. WCA is coming too, and he lives on the stuff.....
😯
Is it best to start from a particular location?
oh, and some pics would be good please - cheer me up, I'm hating my job today!
Did it years ago when it was the "freeraid classic". Doing it this year on sunday from Morzine. The best advice is to get booked, its like 24hr races with people registering the second it opens.
Really good fun with a mad mix of riding abilities, youll be passing middle aged women riding with shopping baskets, as pro downhillers and gnarly types pass you on £4K 10inch travel rigs. And then stop for wine and cheese.
A top tip; dont fill your camelbak with beer. It'll go horribly wrong...
I'd better polish up my shopping basket?
