I’m going to Morzine on Friday and I’M REALLY EXCITED!

I may add to this thread next week.

Les Arc

Slight hijack – who do/did you guys use for your health/holiday/insurance?

I looked into this the other week – and just used my employer’s CIGNA international health insurance. It will cover healthcare, and helicoptering you off the mountain if necessary. It won’t cover damage to property, but the only property I figure I’m likely to damage – my bike – won’t be covered by any insurance policy anyway (except maybe house insurance, which I don’t have due to my currently transient existence!).

Looks like the trail we did with you last monday.

I’ll load my videos of it up later.

How about a bit more video of the last descent we did with cupid on friday.

Van uplift followed by a chairlift then a ride and push/carry to get to the top of this one.

Cheers Stu, Just figured out where that descent is now. I’ll head up and give it a go in a couple of weeks. 🙂

fantastic vids. must do bike verbier again someday.

I’d recommend it.

We’ve been for the last seven or eight years and they just keep on getting better at finding new unridden by the masses trails.

Phil and Lucy certainly put some time into new trail finding instead of just doing the same stuff over and over again.

Nice one Stu 😀

I can’t wait to go, threads like this make me mega excited.

3 weeks and counting!

This time tomorrow I’ll be sat in the sun by Lac Montriond enjoying a tasty barbecue*
