After a packed weekend at the Champéry MTB World Championships in the Portes du Soleil the girls from the most successful team at the Worlds (1 gold and 1 silver medal!) made sure to say thank you and goodbye to the flowmtb team.
We’ll never know whether their success is due to the flowmtb cake or all those runs on the Portes du Soleil DHs….
What we do know is we’re looking forward to having them back next year!
Team GR stormed the World Champs with both Fionn Griffiths and Emmeline Ragot getting medals. Fionn came 2nd in the 4X and Emmeline won the DH. The girls were both quick to thank us for the time spent at flowmtb in Morzine this summer – the perfect training ground for success!
Fionn Griffiths, fresh from her latest stay at flowmtb stormed through tonight’s 4x, narrowly missing the win to take 2nd place. Aneeke Beereten was first, with Morzine’s very own Celine Gros in 3rd.
This week the MTB and Trials World Champs are taking place in Champery, part of the same linked Portes du Soleil MTB area as Morzine.
The lifts are staying open so bikers can get over to see the action. Due to the rally the lifts are not fully open on friday and saturday, but extra early opening has been added so you can still get over to watch the stars!
Full lift opening info on the pdf below:
Ouverture remontées 2-3-4 septembre
And see if you can spot the dirt team at the Les Gets Alpine Battle series…they’ll be the ones with flowmtb stickers on their helmets!
