Being unfaithful to both, I currently ride MTB and road bikes. I'm going to Les Gets for a week. Do i take my road bike or MTB? I an't take both and could hire the other out there so what would be best?

Thanks.

    Depends whether you want to spend your time beasting the road climbs, or getting a cable car to the top and hurtling back down the off road trails.

    Tough choice, but if I could get away with it, I'd take both :D
    Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
    Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved

    I'd take the road bike as there is a much wider and better range of MTB's to hire in Les Gets.... not that cheap though...

    MTB.

    (there may be more MTBs available to hire, but they'll all be fooked having been ragging senseless down Mont Cherie and the Chavannes all season.)

    Hi there, I would take your road bike as you are more likely to do a bigger harder ride on the road, mountain bikes are available for hire, about 40-50 euros a day. It is a great area for cycling, I am off to Morzine next week, I will be taking both bikes though, have fun.

    JonEdwards, I have to disagree re the hire MTB being fooked, I hired last week from http://en.lesgets.com/evasion-sports-shop-446.html and the bike was perfect...
