Packing up your bike

The wonderful people over at Yodel Magazine have put up the first in a series of articles that we will be doing for them over the summer. Take a look at the article here.

Chatel Mountain Style

Summer is well on it's way, and updates are going on all over the place.

The 5th Chatel Mountain Style is being held between the 1st and 3rd of July this year, and it's set to be a cracker. They have just released a list of some of the confirmed riders, including Darren "Bearclaw" Berrecloth, Steve Romaniuk and Martin Söderström.

Biel/Bienne

So, we went to Biel/Bienne yesterday and it was brilliant. To start with it's easy to find, just a short little drive off the motorway from Bern (here is a map). Secondly, it's sunny. I've been told by a local that it's always sunny there, and we all love sun.

Push-up/ride up or get a lift?

The lifts are closed, it's quiet in town and a perfect time to run uplifts, or even pedal/push to the top. We all know deep down that nothing quite matches a good XC ride here in the Portes du Soleil in interseason. The mountains are clearing of snow, the animals are starting to appear, the grass and trees are turning green and the flowers are in bloom.
