Holiday for mountain & road bikers

Bigdod

I would like to take my 2 teenage sons to Italy / France / Switzerland .One of them is a roadie ( as am I ) whilst the other is a hardcore downhill mountain biker .Does anyone have any suggestions / recommendations as to places / companies which could accomodate both our interests .As the MB'er is 15 I suspect most companies would require an adult to be with him , but his abilities are way ahead of mine !

Try Morzine area - French alps close to geneva- one of the hottest centres of mb stuff and loads of fantastic road riding to do. Check out the Morzine (or Les Gets) web sites there are plenty of companies doing guided tours etc.

Special K

Some good companies out there:

Endlessride is pretty much the best, and great value for the service you get. There is a hardcore of regular staff who are excellent. In the past they have even done "road weeks" meaning they had vehicle support for the roadies - drop Sam or Gareth a line.
