Hi Dave, my two sons & I will be there, our second trip. I'm on a Remedy, younger son (17) on an old Patriot, older son (20) on the TrailAddiction SX Trail. We're in the Goat Shed also.

Is the weather forecast not good then?

See you there!

PS. IMHO, no need to worry about braking bumps, it isn't that kind of riding.

Cheers........Jim.

@dekerf853 - brilliant.. I knew I'd find at least one on here!

weather looks distinctly moist: [url= http://www.snow-forecast.com/resorts/Les-Arcs/6day/bot ]http://www.snow-forecast.com/resorts/Les-Arcs/6day/bot[/url]

hopefully that is just a lie and it will actually be beautiful out there 🙂

This is our first time on a guided trip... we've been in the Alps or Pyrenees for 2 weeks every summer for the last 5 years, but self guided - thought it was time for someone to show us around... plus the food sounded good 😀

The food is definitely a highlight!

I wouldn't worry about that forecast, any moisture dries out within a few hours.
