The new Five is inspiring to ride on and the fact that so many trails are rideable is making this the best winter I've ever had out here, just don't tell any skiers I said that ;-)
Bike Village offer mountainbiking holidays in the French Alps, close to les Arcs, la Plagne and the Beaufortain. Mostly we ride singletrack, sometimes we build houses and ski. This little blog is for anyone who fancies seeing what we're up to.

WInter trail riding - Mission trail
What a winter! Today I rode up to 1700m, something that's not normally possible untill late April. There was a bit of snow up top but it was well compacted so awesome to ride on - more grip than the saturated loamy patches inbetween!

The trail is called Mission trail, and if you look closely at the Five on its cross you'll see why. It's one we hardly ever do so you might not have heard of it - an amazing ride but there's one section of fireroad I still can't seem to avoid, hence today's little sortie. I'll keep y'all posted if and when the last piece of the singletrack puzzle comes together!
