You're about to book, your Morzine trip, but you don't know if your bike is the right one for the task or, you have a choice of bikes to bring....If you are in a rush and don't want to read the long version, it's fairly simple.

You don't want to fly and and you don't want to drive. How else can you get the the Alps? Unless you are going to ride your bike there a train is the alternative. It's something different and has quite afew benefits over driving or flying to Morzine.

You're probably only going to take this option if access to the Eurostar service from London Pancras is easy for you. It's here you'll need to set off from, first hitting Paris Gare de Nord, then onto Paris Gare de Lyon then onto Geneva or Cluses, then Morzine.

The Enduro World Series is not only the pinnacle of the sport of enduro, it's also a brilliant guide and resource for riding destinations. Much like the World Cup, the EWS is paid by resorts to feature on their calendar. The races act as a marketing tool and the partnership works, you get to see world class racing in new destinations and racers get to experience fresh and challenging terrain every round.

You have booked your mountain bike holiday to Morzine, accomodation, lift pass, food, bike prepped and spending money saved, now you are trying to work out the logistics. If you have decided to stay with MTB Beds at one of our Riders Weeks properties you're covered, we organise the transfers.

For 2021 the World Cup will return to Les Gets after taking a forced hiatus in 2020. The event will be held on the weekend of July 3rd & 4th, with the World Cup circus rolling into town for setup from Monday 28th June. With things finally starting to look brighter for 2021, we are stoked to get stoked for a season of riding bikes and watching pro level racing again!

Though many mountain bikers across the world managed to get in some kind of season between July and September 2020, with bike parks in Europe and North America opening, 2020 will go down as a year we'd rather put behind us.

In the midst of prep for a Summer season in Morzine plagued by 2020's seemingly endless problems and hurdles, the office phone rang. Vince from Fox Racing was on the end of the line. He was on inbound to Morzine for Fox Hit The Park, an event that brings riders together with some of the Fox athletes to shred a local bike park.

George Brannigan has been using Morzine as a base for World Cup racing for nearly a decade now. It was here, in the early part of his career that he and Rich first met, before MTB Beds was a thing. He gave Rich a set of downhill tyres which got him through the season back in the day.

Amidst a 2020 we'd all rather forget the news is not all doom, gloom and lockdowns. The Morzine summer season was short, but sweet as a nut with beaming sunshine and all time trail conditions. The extra time before the season got underway was perfect preparation for the shapers in Morzine.
