Food was great and the accomodation clean and tidy as usual. Good time was had by all :-)

Once again your service was brilliant and the food excellent. Thanks once again. I’m sure I’ll see you soon.

The chalet was excellent with the rooms and bike lock up being spot on and the honesty Bar was a god send considering the price of a beer in town.

We had a fantastic week with you. Even the weather mid week didn’t spoil anything.
Jess is a fantastic cook and Phil does a great job of giving advice and just looking after the guests.

The rooms were great, food was fantastic (really restaurant quality fantastic) and yourself and Guy were fabulous hosts.

As last year, really enjoyed the trip - thanks for looking after us and big thanks to Emily too!

Best holiday ever! Thanks to everyone.

It’s not often an event like that comes through so close to home!

After all the rain on Friday the track was in a pretty mashed up state. It’s known for being a tough gnarly ride anyway, and in the wet it’s super hard. I’d raced over after cleaning in the chalets and managed to get there just before the girls started setting off. I decided to hang out at the finish where I could watch the rest of the ride on the big screen and see everyone as they came in.

Right from the start it was clear riders were struggling in the mud, with crashes, tumbles and slides to a halt all over the place.

We were there rooting for Fionn Griffiths who’s been staying with flowmtb for the last month. Sadly the mud had won and thrown her off the bike twice. despite the crashes she rode well and came into ninth place in the time of 6.06. She spent a fair while sitting in the leader’s chair! You may not be able to make it out in the photos, but there’s a flowmtb logo on her jersey sleeve!

Then the real excitement came with Emmeline Ragot’s amazing run, finishing almost 5 seconds ahead of Sabrina Jonnier, giving her her first ever World Cup win!

Bernard Kerr (another flowmtb sponsored rider who’s benefitted from some recent training in morzine) also had a fantastic run finishing 21st despite a very sore and swollen finger.

One of the thing I love about mountain bikers is how friendly they are, without any pretensions. Fionn as always took lots of time out to chat with us, Em got her parents to look after my dog and take a photo of us. Bernard was hanging out in the tech area before his run in his flowmtb jersey and happily posed by the van for me!

And of course Jess, the ever smiling flowmtb cook!

His few days riding in Morzine seem to have paid off well. Today he put in a storming performance in tough conditions to finish 19th.

Well done Bernard - we’ll be cheering for you tomorrow.
