Alpine ridingJust returned from a solid week riding in the Alps. Had brilliant weather on the whole and a rainy thursday kept you on the ball on the trails. Some awesome riding packed in and was probably the first propper solid ride this year (not bad considering we're half way though...)
Really pushed it although arm cramp and blisters were a prob to start.
The trip also consisted of overcrowded French service stations (typically dodgy toilets included), being stuck on a mountain top in a thunderstorm, and plenty of punctures.
Here's a few shots of the riding...
Full collection to be added to the main gallery round the end of the month!

I dont mind some rain as it helps when your other hobby is kayaking , as you can see from my profile picture.

Heh heh. Got to wait at least a whole year to ride this again though
Those shots are all from around Morzine. We didn't really venture that far out this year as we only had 5 days so just did the stuff there and a bit in Les Gets. The stuff locally was running nicely though and also found some nice secret trails
