Wow, that looks great! I'm heading to near Colmar in June and you have me seriously wondering about my original road-bike-only plan. Are the trails easy to find for a non-local?
Spent a fortnight there a couple of years ago – some great ridding – really like liked the out of (ski) season sleepiness of the place

How long for? if I'm around I'll show you some stuff. If not, I'll give you some pointers.
;-), I worked in Belfort (making Eurostars work for Alsthom) for a while, hired bikes and ended up at the top of the Ballon d'Alsace . . . lovely part of France 😉
Ohh this is "just down the road". Well quite a decent drive beyond the pfalzerwald from here.
"buff" ... WTF?
Nice looking trails though!
Saw Le Tour near Mulhouse near there a few years back - thought it looked really good for mountain biking around there. It seems I was right! Now I need to go back there. Within striking distance for a weekend from here as well....
Ash, will be over for 2 weeks at the end of June - any local info most welcome (email in profile). Are there any decent MTB hire places? Not got room in the car for both bikes unfortunately.
Looks ok I spose...not very dusty though 😉
Is buff another word for adrenaflow?
Pity about all the rain in the pics. I'd hate to have been there.
Buff? oh come on, you must all have seen The Collective. The bit where they are shredding some sick singletrack based from a cabin, and then one day, they hike into a "whole nother crayzee vaaalley"

Funny that cos the chap with the big grin and the carpet covered helmet looks quite like a chap I know called Dave

Mistaken identity? 😉
Not sure those shots aren't from Thetford 😉 Mini-TP reunion?
I wasn't invited 🙁

Are you not the guy with the big grin and the carpet covered helmet? 😉
I do have a carpet covered helmet but more ears than grin
