Ohhh.....I thought those were the minimum criteria just to be a member....

 

[Rob Rides EMTB]

What's the limitation..??..
There should be enough space on the trails

Accommodation. Will be 15 spaces in the chalet

 

[MrSimmo]

That looks pretty amazing

 

[Doomanic]

There's no fucking way I'll get a pink pass to stay somewhere that good without dragging the boss along!

 

[Hobo Mikey]

Wish I could make it even just in case I bumped into Etoni and put a stick in his spokes to stop him posting so many nice photos.

Ahh....understand.

How about expanding the terms, so if you can find you own accomdation, it will be ok ?
Tent, mobilehome, dig_a_cave...etc...

then show her some photo's of a shack somewhere and say that's where you are going!?

or better still, say nothing and show her when you get back!

 

[Pyr0]

would love to go, but don't drive

 

[Beekeeper]

Its to keep the riff raff out You should have seen some of the people who turned up to the Surrey Hills group ride, some didnt even have Levos or Transporters!

OMG! I’m gonna have to move out of the Surrey Hills to avoid the embarrassment of a my entry level hardtail and Nissan Micra

Driving from the south east of the UK is pretty easy (preferable to flying IMO), but I can imagine its a pain from the north. Could end up doubling the journey time depending on where you are.

Anyway I'm mainly commenting so I can see more details.

I went with trail addiction a few times, that was great. 9 - 5 guiding and meals provided. Got so much more riding in than self-guiding. Might have even stayed in that challet - I can see their logo on the pics! I thought they got closed down though?

Driven many times from central Scotland to PDS. It is indeed a shite drive and with fuel, ferries, food and tolls it's crazy expensive in comparison to a flight from your local airport and airport transfer from Geneva
It's a good option if you want to take multiple bikes. as in more than one for YOURSELF rather than being a mule for other folks. (done both) . But each time I've driven over I've NEVER shuttled to anywhere or stayed in a stupid location. But I like riding a lot more than driving so don't mind big days transitioning between many lifts to reach further afield. I also actually like drinking rather than talking about it. Sitting around a chalet with a bunch of blokes drinking some shite UK IPA really isnt worth showing off about. Quantity over quality every time for me.

An Ebike would be fairly pointless for me when all the lifts are open in the PDS. I should be there this summer but with a DH bike not an Ebike

 

[RustyIron]

Drive. Its part of the experience

If I can get a roof rack fitted, I'm down.

 

[volts]

looks fun, could be down. what area?
If I go, I drive from Denmark and have room for 3 bikes and riders.

I believe @BAMBAMODA is in charge of catering, presumably you'll be able to select from the Vegetarian or Meat lovers menu's ..

I'm not sure if that will make things less or more awkward if she turns up ??

That's not you on the left is it ? I'm sure you've worked hard on that body, but I'm not sure the ladies are going to appreciate a guy who can't even work buttons !

 

[Mikehorti]

Absolutely but date dependant…

 

[mtb64]

First set of photos look like La Thuile, Italy. Second set look like Austria (Saalbach maybe)...

 

[nobbyq]

go to verbier... better trails , your allowed to ride anywhere pretty much , bikes shop rent ebikes and batteries , Switzerland miles better than France ..
