Gentlemen in Nyon
Team-Blue, bikers reached the top of the Jura at the Col above La Rippe, right next to the French border (sadly no bar/café). We took it gently and stopped at the P’tit Bard for some drink and energy bars on the way up. It was hot lower down. About 1000 m up, and down.
Descending was easier, and faster.
Attending – Steve, Jeremy, Peter and Peter.
It’s tough – but somebody has to..

Quick report that Jeremy, Thatcher and I toured around the Petit Grand loop at La Vattay (9.7 km) in pretty fine conditions (even a touch of sun) on Friday 19, just over 90 mins. After a quick drink we were all home by around 1pm for lunch and a siesta (at least in my case).
Please feel free to join our group.

Dear cross-country folk. I am looking forward to some good sliding this year – 2018. Under blue skies.. I am proposing some dates. Meet at the car park next to the Lakes by the French Customs at Divone. At 9.30 am each day unless otherwise agreed. We could fit in a lunch or coffee etc as well,
but should be back down early afternoon in any event.

Mark, Jeremy, Thatcher and I enjoyed almost perfect conditions for a round of Pillarde. Sadly the cafeteria was not open. A good start. Peter
