Blur it/Anthony ……..
If it were me I would drive up to avoriaz to collect rider packs then head back to chalet to get bikes and start from morzine, last year the rider packs contained so much stuff (drinks, wd40,flyers,another backpack!!) that we had to go back to chalet to drop it all off anyway as we couldn’t of carried it around all day!
As for if the tickets are for females, it shouldn’t matter, last year I had booked a ticket for my wife, she fell pregnant before the trip and as such abandoned the trip to morzine, I emailed Sophie from the passportes du soliel team and she was quite willing and happy to change the names/details of any of the tickets for us, as long as it was done afew weeks in advance of the ride date!
It’s important that you do this as we had to show passportes for my ticket (I booked all of our groups) but I was able to collect everyone’s passes! Even people who didn’t come in the end, so we at least had there lift pass to use for the day, plus the extra days free pass that was given in each pack!
Enjoy!! Wish I could go again this year! but will have to wait til next!
