Biek resort in Northern Italy, not far from Nice...

Think the company was Riviera something but my mind's a blank

San Remo is another one, but TBH the entire Ligurean coast is phenomenal riding.

That's them, thanks all.

Have been to Finale twice, thinking of varying it a bit, had a good report on those guys from a friend.

Any other good (or bad) reports that people have on RivieraBike welcomed.

Yeah - learnt more and developed further as a rider in my 4 days in Finale for SuperEnduro than I have in 2-3 years.

And as you say, not expensive either.

Considering it for this summer with the wife and kid. Will I find the good stuff without a guide?

Molini? Probably not.
Tiny village too, so not a huge amount for the family to do other than swim in the (coldish) natural swimming pool.

I was thinking to access the Finale area, is Molini the place to stay? (excuse my ignorance, I'm still at the loose idea stage!)

I should probably add that I've been to Finale Ligure twice, both times with Sylvia & Mark at FinaleFreeride.net, and they, the trails, the riding, the weather, the food and everything else I can think of apart from a few bad hangovers were absolutely brilliant, and I'd recommend them without reservation.

Just looking at Riviera for a bit of variation.

I know Finale Freeride sort of close in the summer, they tend to be very quiet as it's just so hot, and the lifts are open in France.

Hi Guys...thanks for the heads up.

We actually do a 2/3 centre freeride/shuttle tour using fulvio and Marko in Calizzano, and then over to Nico and Angelo in Nava.

From Nava this links to us in Molini and the last day on the trails in San Remo.....So alp to sea...

We take care of all transfers and your luggage and you arrive at your next destination by bike!!

Our website is being updated at the mo so details should be there early december..

Ciao

Sorry but I'm swimming against the tide on this one -
-5 for RivieraBike

However would recommend Finale.
We've been with JustRideFinale twice - great set up, absolutely fantastic riding in Finale and Calizzano, some of the best riding I've done anywhere
Plus Finale is much more "happening" than Molini.
