    Few words – avoid it at all costs based on my experience. Can’t get an insured service or signed for service from the UK to most of Europe, unless you go down the courier route which is very expensive.

    Deux alpes/Alpe d’huez/vaujany/os en oisans

    Loads of riding and very little pedalling.

    +1 😆

    Stayed here Venosc Campsite which was by the river, down in the valley, a short push / ride up to the Venosc cable car which takes you to Les 2 Alpes. We could easily ride / drive along the river to Bourg, or up to Alpe D’Huez etc for more chair assisted riding. Cheap, by comparison to hotels etc, great location – and went with a 16 year old and 13 year old – both mega happy

    I ride a Canyon Nerve XC – in a large size. It is 19.5″ and I’m 5’11” tall – it’s quite large as well and good for XC riding – I’m in Southampton if you want to venture a bit further and have a ride although I would think the medium would be good if you like a “stretched” position and ride mainly XC or race XC, the small would be good if you want a bit more bouncy fun?

    They do come up big

    I’ve got a 456 steel with a 100mm fork and a carbon one with 130mm – for my money / riding / comfort the carbon 456 with the longer fork is a much better ride

    Sold various bits of lego on e-bay and it’s worked out well. One lot was sold as a job lot (TV sized cardboard box full) with a BIN – awesome. We’ve also sold smaller amounts by weight in food bags. Suggest you take out any people (mini-figs) and sell separately and if you have any specific sets or specific collections (Star Wars, Harry Potter) then sell separately.

    I think a number of you are missing a much wider and more serious point here, beyond that trail being rideable or not and who with and who not. So put your testosterone down, handbags away and think of both the injured rider and wider implications.

    Surry Hills is under increasing pressure (from all parties) regarding use and anything that highlights the danger or not of trails is not good for those that use the area, those that live there, and those that also get injured there.

    Proper trail grading, maintenance and ROW’s is what the nimby’s will call for and the attitude displayed by some on this thread only hastens this.

    I use a Satmap Active 10 on the bike, full OS map with standard AA batts. It can also import GPX/MMO files so you can plot routes and then follow a line on the screen. Its mounted on the top tube, so apart from looking down every now and again it’s well out the way.

    As per my post really, Pro’s not eating chocolate and if it worked you can be sure they would be…..

    Avg fat content – chocolate 30g / per 100g
    Avg fat content – Jelly Babies 0g/ per 100g

    Eat more and early as 50 miles is still 50 miles, assuming you are completing in around 2 – 2.5 hours, you’ll be feeling the effects after about 60-90min of hard exercise
