    Please excuse the slight hijack, but sounds like some knowledgeable folks involved – can the lifts in these areas carry a tandem?
    Our daughter & hubby have been riding in Morzine this week, and the pics have got us toying with the idea of driving over next summer in our VW T25. Sandy only rides tandem, so we’d need to know if it could go up the lifts.
    Thanks.

    End of hijack, sorry OP 🙂

    Chamonix has some world class singletrack and is pretty much unknown. Its only recently beginning to show its potential as the CMB started putting uplift in place for bikes. Its also perfectly situated to reach Verbier, Pila and the Port Du Soleil within an hour if you fancy getting out the valley.

    Just got home after a weeks awesome Alpine singletrack with Stevo (The White Room).

    Thoroughly recommended! The Cake is awesome too.

    +1 for Meribel

    Loads of stuff in the woods down to Brides and across to la Tania/courchevel.
    Nice to hear that the lifts are open there more often cos when it was my manor it was only the Brides gondola 3 days a week and nothing else. FWIW the ride back up on the road is not the worst in the area.

    The singles down from les Allues to the super U are meant to be great, shame I never got down that side.
