If you can find an airline ticket that doesn't bring tears to your eyes over that time please tell me about it. We ARE going to do a day trip to Pila. 15km DH track anyone?

Does it start in the snow?!

The 2014 Mega is 16-20 July. Smack bang in the middle of the Soccer World Cup. (Read Expensive plane tickets) Plus Alp Du Huez is 180 km from where we are gonna be based.

 

It starts on a glacier at over 3000m (I think) pretty wild race. 32 km of downhill.

It looks like a battlefield at the start! You need trainer wheels/skis to make it down that first bit...lots a swearing and sliding major crashes, pushing and pedalling until you get into the main ST! Fun! Maybe 2015!

Yeah looks mad. Problem is getting 2000 people and their bikes up to the top of the mountain means lot's of queuing. It's deff on the to do list.

Dunno if this has been posted already, but damn this place looks good:

So what are you waiting for? Come along next year.

 

That vid is from 2011. They've added a whole bunch of new stuff on the one side of Morzine since this. The place is just mental.

Maybe after 2015 (graduation). R24k is a bit out of range for the moment. But in the future, certainly!
