a les montaignes!

We've just finished 4 days in Morzine, where it pissed with rain the first 2 days, so no pics (too wet out for the camera) but believe me, much mud was swallowed. The 3trd and 4th days were nocer though and I managed to get one DH run in as well as riding most of the XC in the area. Pics from Morzine;




YT looking fat and happy for 2nd breakfast


A chute at the end of one of the XC runs. Was a LOT steeper than it looks (honest)


Bubble crests the mountain pass

The Stinker was pushed up to here (mostly)


Bubble again fails to gain height

The view of Mont Blanc

the air was a bit thin....


A groovy viaduct we went over in the middle of France

Having made the questionable decision to cross France on the day of the Grand Depart (when all the french leave the desks that they slave at 35 hours a week 40 weeks a year to drive to the coast and be, if that were possible, more french than normal) we're now safely in Les Vallees D'Ax in the French Pyrenees for the second stage of our trip. 3-4 days here and then off to Southern spain to get a good English sun tan and catch up with Marla.

Oh, and Bubble sends thanks for her birthday greetings. In true husbandary style, she got a dive computer and disc brakes from me :D
