Todayโs episode is a little Bonus update from me on whatโs been happening in my world and whatโs coming up. Maybe you can relate, maybe you canโt, but I hope some people will find it helpful.
And my next race - as noted - is:

โฐ๏ธ 2800m
๐๏ธ Nov 17-23 - 5 days of racing including the Prologue
๐ NEOM, Saudi Arabia

๐ซ๐ท Recorded on top of Alpe DโHuez, I did make it out downhill mountain biking and please find below some resources in case you wanted to do the same:
๐ฒ Where I rented my DH MTB Altitude Sports: https://www.altitudesports-alpedhuez.fr
๐ถ Cost with insurance and all the gear was approx: 105 Euros
๐ต๐ปโโ๏ธ Gear included body armor (mandatory apparently), helmet, knee pads, jersey and gloves, bring your own googles or glasses
๐ The lift (right across from the store) was about 26 Euros
๐ข Green trails were very easy and flowy
๐ต Blue trails were only slightly more difficult
โ I was riding alone so didnโt attempt red or black trails this time around
