'"WHAT AN ABSOLUTE TOTAL BEAST"'
Strengths:
The Trails: ALPINE single track - not to be confused with back in the UK singletrack. Double Header and Black 8 inparticular are with out a doubt the finest trails I have ridden anywhere.
The food: cooked by Gordy the legend Chef/driver/MTBer/Paraglider/Skier/film maker and magazine cover subject) Is there anything this man cant do??
The guides: friendly, organised, proffesional - all of them top draw.
The guiding: Always took time to understand what we wanted to ride, rather than just being there for a summers worth of dossing.
The effort: put in to knowing and finding the trail network, looking after the guests.
Weaknesses:
The back country day does consist of alot of sitting in a van. I enjoyed the other trails more than the back country trails. Dont get me wrong they were totally great and would have defecated all over anything in the UK, just that I enjoyed some of the others more.
Overall:
Trail Addioction bills its self as the ultimate alpine singletrack experience. There is no doubt in my mind about that. There is though an important word in there - ALPINE. This isnt the North downs, Quantocks, Lake District, Welsh or Scotish Singletrack. Its in a league all of its own. Imagine any of those places, take the fastest or steepest or trickiest most fun bit of trail, imagine it totally natural and BIGGER and I think your probably getting close to what the Trail Addiction would show you.
