    Don’t miss the 2012 Razorsnowbike! Loads of new features this year, the race will start from the top of Super Châtel and finish in the village centre. As usual the day will start with the Derby (a mass start DH) but then you will race a “10X”, 10 riders at the time in the specially modified boarder cross track… don’t forget “nice guys get second”!

    Here is my new “XC” bike, a Turner 5.Spot 2012.

    I choose this frame for its capacity to put a big smile on your face, its polyvalence and great reliability (no bearings). All the part have been chosen with the best weigth to reliability ratio… see the detailed build further down.

    The Enduro Series registration are now open.

    Small change, the Font Romeu’s stage (Rally Enduro style) will take place mid September and not late May as originally planned… great occasion to come and ride with us!

    Site des Enduro Series

    The first stage of the Enduro Series will take place in font Romeu on the 26th and 27th of May.

    The Enduro Series is the official National Enduro Cup, it’s a stage race where only the descents are timed, no training on the track and natural single tracks only. Another particularity is each racer is equiped with an electronic chip and can start whenever he fancies, so you can ride with your mates.Registration opens on the 1st of February, be quick places sell like hot cakes!

    Our gîte, is located only 10min away from Font Romeu, with its pumptrack and great food (everything home made and cooked by Françoise), it’s an ideal accomodation.

    Jo can help you sharpen your technique for race-day (and the rest of your riding life!) and show you around his favourite trails, so why not come over and discover the area with us ? Give us a shout !

    The old (30 years!) Rochassons lift wich use to take you back to the top of the bikepark, has been changed for a brand new 6 persons one, it should now take you 4 mins to go back to the top!

    Sorry, but this post is not available in French

    Big Bike magazine spent a few days with us in the Pyrénées. They brought along Romain Paulhan, 2010’s Franch DH champ’. Check the article in the November/December issue.
