edited July 2012 in MTB buying advice
So I am going to the Alps for a week, but I don't really have any kit except the stuff I need for a single ride (Shorts, Jersey gloves etc). I was trying to put together a list of stuff I needed and wondered if it was enough?

Shorts, Jersey (So bringing me to two of each)
More padded undershorts (So a total of 2 or 3)
Rain Proof jacket
Long sleeved base layer

Any other suggestions or things I am missing?

    In all seriousness, I'm aiming on taking 3 sets of riding kit so

    3x padded shorts
    3x outer shorts
    3x DH style jerseys
    2x gloves
    1x waterproof jacket
    1x knee pads
    1x elbow pads

    and some travel wash lol.

    I've not been before but I think that should be sufficient (maybe overkill?) for a week trail riding in Morzine
