For some reason this reminds me of our week in the Alps - just replace 'Brandon Semenuk / Thomas Vanderham' with 'Fabian Barrel / Cedric Gracia':

I finally got round to doing the final few vids on this trip. It seems like a long time now.

Morgins - a true big bike place hill - lots of inches and slack angles or your going to get ravaged. Super fun when you just let the bike work over all those roots and got off the brakes. Ping ping pump ping pump etc - The black run is as steep as Champery but maybe not quite as nutts. There is a Matt Hunter segment in seasons which has been on repeat on my iphoine recently and I just had to use the tune.... love it.






Champery - Still as silly as ever. Ride it if you ever get the chance. Steep steep steep from top to bottom. The first minute of the video is us just getting to the track, and there is some entertaining dialogue if you can pick it up, although the sounds a bit fuzzy.

Did you have any fillings left in after that? Looks nice, but damn, looks bumpy!

Good times!!! Had managed to forget how feckin steep the Champery track is and the Morgins Black....

Ahh I miss it!
I wanna go back.

That Champerey track is mental, i've no idea how the pros get down there sooo fast

The chest cam picks up a lot of the hits, but your neck seems to dampen a lot of the vibration, so its not as bad as through your eyes when riding... good times!

Where did you stay? looking to do a trip this summer but out accom has fallen through

any suggestions?

Still steep as a cliff then! seem to be riding lots more of it than i remember - cracking stuff gents.

Shameless plug time . Not Morgins/Champery but my brother has chalet in Morzine www.morzineholidays.com I'm hoping to go again this summer, been with some peeps from here and other essexhertsmtb ers have stayed too, hoping to post more info nearer summer perhaps organise something with lots who want to go ?, should be able to offer some discounts too.
