mega avalanche

We are awaiting confirmation of the race dates for 2009 from the Avalanche cup organisers. Once these are confirmed we will realse details and dates of 2009's trip.

Guy rode the Mega Avalanche for the first time in 2006. It was something he’d wanted to do for ages so escaped chalet duties for the weekend to ride it. He loved it and decided to go back, first to explore more of the local trails, and second to get more people riding those trails and racing the Mega Avalanche.

Find out what Guy has to say about the 2006 race on our blog. And for any girls wondering about the girlie experience check out how Sara found it last year.

We found a great chalet in town for 2007's race, meaning we could offer all our usual services, accommodation, breakfast, afternoon tea, 3 course dinners and riding all day. We liked it, as did our guests, so we decided to go back in 2008. Read up on the chalet here.

Join us for the race every mountain biker should try at least once!
