About the Event

This is another ride in our summer series of high Alpine super enduro rides. This trail offers spectacular views and an unforgettable single-track experience. We will get to the top with a train followed by a bus and some pedalling 1'300m up and ride down nearly 2'300m in vertical drop.

At the end of the ride we will visit a superb swinging pool so remember to take swimming shorts with you!

If you can’t ride/drive to the meeting point, please let us know, you might be able to join in another’s car!

Most likely we will go in at least one car from Geneva so a shuttle including bikes is available. The number of places in the car is limited so contact the organiser asap to reserve your place (regular fuel contribution per trip consumption) and if you come with a car and have spare places you are willing to offer to riders with bikes please let the organisers know.

Please make sure you have a complete change of clothes (clean shoes, shorts and a T-shirt) for the car after riding. That is essential if you forget, be prepared to travel in the boot, wearing a bin bag ;P .

If you can drive to the meeting point and have free spaces in your car, please let us know!
