Evening ride with JG, Chris and Matthis. The trail was new to them. We trundled over to the Larguit climb then back across the Côté Borne. A bit of a change from the usual singles.

We wanted to push right up the Manival valley to the cabin but due to lack of time stopped about 200 meters short. We returned via the main trail as it was damp.

Trip within our 1km radius up to the viewpoint then along to the cascade. 10m30 for the climb to the viewpoint, a bit off my PR but 2nd best time I think.

We decided to cycle to the Climbing Rock to take the technical descent down. It is still pretty tricky for us but getting a bit better on the easier top section.

We decided to do the same route as last week but with the wind hoped there would be no walkers on it, which was the case.

We wanted to ride the single to the Cascade to Craponoz, a huge waterfall behind the house. We climbed via the Champ Bertin as far as the reservoirs behind Beauregard.

I fancied some flat riding today and decided that a trip up and down the river as far as the town of Pontcharra would fit the bill. I've not ridden the whole of this route before.

I wanted to explore la Pérérée to Murianette trail. It is a jeep track, about 2 meters wide.

A short tour before the storm to test out the boy's new fully suspended MTB. All good although we didn't ride the staircase.

Headed out with Mike to have a look at his super new MTB. The trail is pretty good in the damp as it is mostly sand which drains well. Some snow on the descent but generally good grip going down.
