Return to le Retord as tot wanted to do a bit of alpine skiing but didn't want to stay too long either.

The snow all melted during the week (in the Jura/Massif Central) so back to bike.

Classic skiing. The return of snow at the Plan des Hotonnes / Plateau de Retord this Sunday after about a month.

A very cold ride to run in my change of tires from some commuter stuff to Michelin Lithion 4s.

Last Sept Laux of the holidays and first of 2026. We skied fairly cool as the snow was pretty hard in places but if you ski from the top of the Oursiere to le Pleynet it is grand.

Normally I've done a month or more nordic skiing  by the end of December but this year there has hardly been any Christmas snow and conditions in resorts that are open are reported as stony and i

I'd skied a bit on the sept laux pistes yesterday when I was skitouring and things didn't look that great.

Another way to explore the hills of Mont d'Or. This time, forming a figure of 8 loop.

Return to the Mont d'Or quarry road but with a slightly easier start than the one I took the other day even if there was a bit more gravel.

Bike ride during my lunch break. I left late, so I only had an hour to ride, so the three hills in the middle of Grésivaudan seemed like a good choice.
