Nice, where is this? Are you going to ride La Grave this year you pansy?

PS: I hate you 🙂

Nice, where is this?

Rhone Valley, Switzerland

Are you going to ride La Grave this year you pansy?

Hopefully!

I should be in your neck of the woods for a week this summer and will be heading to uberdriftecarle land... Are you about in July?

I guess so 🙂 Uberdrifticale land being la Thuile/Finale...?

Nice, I haven't had the bike out yet, was all set last week, then the snow came back! All rideable below about 1200-1500m here now though.

Might do both of those but La Thuile for definite!

looks rubbish. pah!!

Mmmm.... Switzerland

We're back over there in July - can't wait 8)

Could you park a bike at about 1500m. Then take a ski lift to 3000m, ski all the way down to your bike, then dump the skiis and ride down to the valley bottom?

That would be be coooool.

Actually, I could have done exactly that today. Maybe I should do it tomorrow... 😈

Couloir Frank (board) + Shaper's Paradise (board) + Chapel trees (board) + Snails (bike) + Ace of Spades (bike) sounds like a good combo (2980m down to about 850m!)

The snow is still too good to be really motivated to get on the bike yet though. I'd written the season off a couple of weeks back (+15°C!) but now it just won't stop snowing...
