Ride for this week-end, Crozet (Monts Jura)
Saturday 9:00 (DH) or earlier for enduro, I plan to go to les Crozet (monts jura), we still don't know if we'll ride DH or enduro so I'll take both bikes. It is easy to climb up on the 4x4 trail and even higher than the cable car; then down there are many single tracks.
Sunday, DH session, same place, 9:00-ready, half/full day depends on the conditions and motivation of the group.
The cablecar at les Crozets will open this week-end, it is not a very crowded resort and there are many interesting single tracks (same as the Saleve) with different difficulties even under rain.
Let me know if you want to join, then I'll wait for you!

Cat MTB weekend - update # 3 - Destination: Zermatt!
It's done! Decided! The doodle is closed, and the Jo's have spoken. This year, the Cat MTB weekend will take place on August 3, 4, and 5 in Zermatt.
This is the result of the doodle:
So we will be 9 people in total. I still hope some of the other Jo's will be able to rearrange their calendars to join us. The next step will be to secure accommodation, so we'll start making calls.
Please block your calendars and order the parts you need NOW so the bikes will be in perfect shape for the ride.
In terms of organization:
Balls: thanks a lot for your offer to help! I'll take you up on your offer in the coming days, to help us make calls to the potential bike-friendly hotels.
BoumBoum: should we find a time to go over your list of hotels over a beer? Do you have some time next weekend?
Dopey: can we count on your help to recommend the trails? Do you already have a place in mind for the Friday DH?
Missile: can you confirm your presence to the Friday DH, and to the rest of the weekend? Your answer on the doodle said you needed to double-check with your vacation plans.
All other Jo's: anybody else want to join for the downhill on friday Aug 3rd?
Papy: will give you a call to discuss Caterpillar-specific issues.
Labrico: you now have about 2 months to find a gonzesse in Zermatt...should be plenty of time for you.
3Decis: are you really not coming?!
Nascar: any suggestions for trails are welcome, the sooner we start the discussions, the better.
Alpine: you won't become a real Jo until you join the Cat MTB weekend...
BeauJoeLais: I'm counting you in for the hotel, we will not let you sleep in your car...mainly because we might need it if Simon has a bad snoring night.
Limoncello: we're still waiting to hear from you!
Husky: anybody out there? Any chance you will join?
Tanya: should you come to realize that this weekend is (a lot) more fun than a triathlon, we'll be delighted to have you with us! Might even warrant a name...
I hope you're all as excited as I am about this weekend...we're going to ride in a truly spectacular place!
Last but not least, I've heard that the Goat is in Zurich so no excuse not to join us. Zulu, if you want to win the most km. traveled award, you'll need to fly in again this year! Bring Honeybadger with you if you do!
That's all for now, folks. To be continued!
Nameless.

DH in Spain in the winter! Who would have guessed?
Check out this site: http://switch-backsdh.com/malaga/
For those of you who travel to MDLC every now and then, you could take the opportunity to try it out.
I know next time I'm down there I'll go and see the trails, I had no idea they existed....
