All at short notice, and pretty cheap. 6 riders in Colmenar Spain. Twenty miles above Malaga. This was training for 3 riders entered in the Cape Epic. Looked pretty lumpy on Google earth, and it was. Either up or down. Did about 40 miles a day for 4 days. Couldn't find a detailed enough map so used the mountain peaks around us as guide points. Would do it again, or with one of the many guided companys around the Seirra Nevada.

Tell Jimmy to stop being so soft and ride the bl*dy bike rather than carrying it!

Looks Nice! Don't suppose there's any uplift/DH action available? I'm looking to get made redundant anyday soon and fancy spending some of my gardening leave somewhere nice and warm.

P-Jay.
Any where in Europe with lifts, will be skiing only at this time of year. Freeride Spain are riding in Seirra Nevada now. Even if there are no lifts most companys run shuttle vans up, and should cater for the riding you want. Other option for good weather could be Italy. Theres plenty of companys to search on the web. Let us know how you get on.

All the pics where we are carrying bikes is when Jimmy had been leading! When the tracks ran out, through streams, almond orchards or lost! At the end of the day he was always the one wanting to get some more miles in. Cant stop him.
