Last weekend we hosted the kick-off event of MTB Junior Rider Club! We had a lot of fun on the mountain biking with the kids, and we got a lot of positive feedback. At the event we had 3 groups: A "girl only" group with 3 young ladies aged 5-6, that prooved that mountain biking is not only a boys sport. We learned to handle small trail obstacles, braking on fire roads, and finding balance with start and stop position. Besides the mountain biking we picked flowers, played a bi

Chris tells us about the trails he's been riding past week: In May the lift system in Verbier is closed for maintenance so I have had to pedal a lot this week to get to the good trails, this has been good because I've had a chance to work on my fitness and also I tried to discover some new trails that I wouldn't normally do if the lifts were running. The weather has been perfect for riding: not too hot but not super rainy either, on one of the rides I did encounter a bit of u

Last week Andras and I mountain biked a couple of laps on the 'Patier mtb track' from Verbier to Le Châble. This trail runs all the way from the forest on the far side of the Verbier bowl straight down to the village of Le Châble at the bottom of the valley. There are around 600 vertical metres of descent with two distinct sections: the top part is a steep windy singletrack, then you dive into the woods for the second half which is a little wider but with a lot of rock sectio

Summer has begun! The snow between Verbier and Le Châble has melted and the mountain biking trails are in great condition! Today we rode up the Route de Soleil and took the singletrack from Sarreyer to le Châble, a short ride but with some really nice sections which aren't too technical. The corners were grippy with just enough moisture in the ground to keep your tyres sticking but not so much that you got too muddy. This week we have also checked out the conditions on the Pa

I joined the Singletrail group to promote diversity and empower girls that would love to try themselves out in this amazing sport. Because riding with girls is fun, addictive and up-lifting activity. We have our own girly chats, laughs, tailored prebike warm-ups, the compulsory selfie pit-spots and the after drinks. We ride like girls and we enjoy it.
