The first such race in Switzerland:

Unfortunately it misses all the best parts of MTBing in Switzerland

Ooooh, I like the look of that!

Finishes an hour from my house too.

Struggling to think of why I shouldn't enter.

I'm sure it'd still be fun. And it does run on more spectacular ground in the second half - so that's good.

Ah, a fellow bike packer in cow country
Edit: Oh... sorry, CMB is not cow countrly... but it does feel like home to me

Yeah, we're almost neighbours!

Give me a shout if you're ever heading this way for an overnighter and I'll join you if I can.

Also, if you ever fancy showing off some of your local(ish) trails then let me know as I'd be up for a weekend of bikepacking fun in Switzerland.

That looks like it could be a really nice ride. The overall lack of gear being carried in the photos fills me with confidence in the climate too.

Entries opened last night.

I'm in!

In term time for me
