In association with SOLID Bikes. The Search is based in Morzine, France and offers downhill mountain bike day trips to other bike friendly resorts in the Alps. We operate to a number of regular venues but are very flexible and will visit any resort that will make a viable days trip. We hope to add more resorts to our regular list in preparation for peak season.
Like riding downhill in Portes du Soleil? But wish you could have the trails to yourself, the braking bumps ironed flat and the challenge of some new tracks without scrabbling through the bushes looking for a not so secret trail?
Why not take a day out of your holiday in the Portes du Soleil to experience a little more of what the Alps has to offer? More and more of the lift stations are opening up to bikes in the summer months but many cannot offer enough riding to satisfy you for a full weeks holiday so why not just visit for a day and see where the locals ride and race. We offer day trips to the less well known downhill tracks within striking distance of Morzine and some of the more famous resorts. The regular venues we visit offer something for every budget and riding style, free-ride or full on race tracks used in regional series. We will pick you up from your chalet, transport you to the trail center of your choice and show you around the official trails and then drop you back in time for a night out, where you can brag about railing smooth berms and picking your way over technical tracks that haven?t become a one-line rut!
All the details you need are on our website: www.thesearchmtb.com
The Search will be supporting the following riders for the 2008 race season:
Paul Aston & James Mcknight.
Getting these guys involved with The Search was an easy decision; they are some of the most passionate and committed racers we've seen and were instrumental to forming the ideas behind The Search. Both of these Morzine legends bring with them bags of natural talent and motivation, they are on the brink of big things and at the beginning of an important season we're stoked to be supporting them.
The team will use The Search to access their favourite trails for training, so if your lucky you could be sharing your trip with these pinners. We are also organising Team Rider Training Days where you can ride with, and learn one-on-one from the pro's!
Watch the website for dates.

Sounds like a good idea for seasonned Alps riders!
A day trip to Pila is defintaely woth it - highly recommended
awesome, i'll be looking into that for sure, the chavannes and pleney do get a bit too much attention and the braking bumps really do show.
Buy a bigger suspension bike. Oh, and quit braking. ;-)
i was there riding a v-10 so you can't get 'bigger suspension bike' and it's the tourists who rent a bike for a day then go down the runs with the brakes slammed on that cause the braking bumps
Nicee, i would love to get away from those braking bumps, pila would be nice!
Thanks for all the positive comments guys! It's nice to know that your going in the right direction!
