Depends which resort.

Les Arcs didn't start the lifts back up for MTBs until early/mid-July last year (we arrived the day after they started back up, though my memory fails me at this point as to what date that was!)

Hi Diz - long time no here!
Morzine and all that Porte du Soleil area are 27th June coinciding with the event date of same name.

BP

OOPS - don't think you're the Diz from Austria are you? - just checked member bit .

Hi diz, as above, it varies from resort to resort. Most will open early-mid July and stay open through until the end of August. Outside of that there's plenty of great riding still to be head with us and several other companies offering [url= http://www.whiteroomchalet.com ]bike holidays with vehicle uplift.[/url]

Was out today for my first ride of the spring. Was great, but I really need to figure out how the Mission Control stuff works on my new Lyriks! Did half the ride with the forks locked out (I know, I know, I need to RTFM).
