Oh listen. here's a place on the main drag called le burger 411. something like that. it's got green chairs. they do a burger chips and coke for 8.50. the one closest to the lift is 10 or 11 Euro.

Backpacks (I have a Camelback but limited space for a few spares and tools)I would say Dialed bikes for most of that stuff. As far as helmets go you should definitely try one on. Buying online is not a good plan in my opinion. just in terms of fit etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buying online is not a good plan in my opinion. just in terms of fit etc. Agree 100% on the helmet fitting. Bought my full face and Enduro lids online and got very very lucky with fit. Measurements are only that accurate. Knee pads are crucial. Nothing sucks more tha busting a knee open or damaging ligaments. Get something with shin protection if you run flats. Goggles. Might not seem important but dust, bugs and water in your eyes will suck. Backpack or hydration pack with enough space for some snacks and a waterproof jacket of sorts. And a sense of adventure.
