PH Cycling Weekend 2014

[S10GTA]

Following the other discussion about a weekend away, I am happy to organise a trip for 2014 to Morzine. This should cater for both road and MTB.

I have had a look at dates, and initially I suggest travelling out Thursday 31st July, returning on the Sunday (3rd) in the evening.

I have access to The Chalet Gourmet, which is located right behind the tourist office in the centre of Morzine. It's basic but functional. There are a mixture of rooms, 6 for twin use, 4 singles and 2 quads.

Here is the chalet http://www.mountainweekends.com/pages/booking/hote...

The cost of the accommodation on a Half Board basis for 3 nights will be £120 per person.

Transfers from Geneva can be provided for £50 return (providing your flight lands at a certain time, TBC)

Flights are not yet on sale, but these are to be booked by yourself.

What do we think?

I think we need a list...

my only concern would be being too slow and getting dropped otherwise i might well be up for this. what sort of pace do you guys run, or is there quite a variety of pace? how long/far do you plan on riding each day?

many thanks

On these type of rides groups will usually form. I wouldn't worry about being dropped. There will always be someone quicker and always someone slower than you.

Hmmmmmmmm?

I often find that there are a lot of quicker riders than me, but rarely have I come across any that are slower. Bagsy I'll be 'handbrake'

E38, I'm thinking of joining this as I love the alps areas. I smoke 30 a day, so do you really think you'll be the slowest? Oh and on a 15 year old hard tail!

I'll express an interest - I was down for the Snowdonia PH weekend, but had to pull out due to a bike-scenery interface a month before...

The Alps - something I'd love to do, and if someone else is organising, then all the better!

+1.

I can´t spare the time or expense of a trip abroad at the moment I´m afraid.

+2 I'm afraid. Or rather, I'd be considerably more tempted if staying in the UK.

[S10GTA]

But you have a year to save and plan....

[ecsrobin]

I'd certainly be interested.

[HurryUpAndWait]

There's nothing to say that we can't organise both...

[Hackney]

I'd be interested in this.
