this place used to be sick. Like 10 years ago there was a bike park with multiple lifts like what they used for this enduro worldcup. The bike park was a beauty hiden gem with a mix of naturals stuff and bike park berm, Nothing crazy but not a single one braking bump, good flow and managed by a small group of passionate people. Unfortunately Megeve sucks like always and they closed all the lifts of the mountains excepting the Jaillet one, causing the death of the bike park Today the trails maintenance are weak, basically done once a year for the annual enduro race (mb enduro race) Anyway the mont blanc view is still insane, and the trails pretty good after the mb race (or this year world cup), you can ride this trails but keep in your mind that excepting the jaillet stage you will have to pedal to the top of every stages (easy 1500m+ day ) and no track map and sign so keep your favorite app pretty closed and be sure the trails are mention in it

One of the best looking frame right now

Commencal dh v5

Better than ext storia(better custom tuned at fast, less noisy) in my opinion. Both really good though

My money on Dan Booker the local guy for a podium

Not even build now, we don’t even know the exact location as there are different faces over there It will be fresh and probably build over the spring so excited to see what its look like

As a french we just need to really apprecieted what’s it seem to be the peak of this french era. World champ at home, one of the craziest crowd ever, 3 french at the top of the podium And man, before Bruni times came and after Barel era it was a little bit of a desert in the french scene (despite having some really good riders like thirion, flo payet, spagnolo) but that was really Bruni who put that momentum into the french scene and pushed loris amaury bc and everyone with him. Finally Bruni closed the loop.. or not.. the target is definitly now the Vouilloz 7x record

@garretvs: I don’t think it’s that easy. Most of the top french (Pierron Bruni Vergier) don’t even come from big mountains. But for sure they have good home tracks. I think the system of club (association) was pretty good in France (good amount of support through the trainings, rivalry with plenty of others riders every week-end, some of them like Bruni or Daprela train really hard since younger age with coach like Nico Vouilloz ..)
