I went back to Morzine via Lindarets (home of my favourite mountain restaurant in the Port du Soleil, but shut) and a large number of goats.
Sounds like a fantastic few days. Thanks for sharing. That descent from Avoriaz to Montriond via Linderets is superb. Coincidentally someone must have created a Strava seg from Linderets recently as it has appeared in my KOM list :-) Probably one of the must fun/beautiful descents I've ever done. I think there's a seg from the turning off the main Morzine/Avoriaz road to Montriond lake which I think I would held* if I hadn't slowed to chat to an old French guy during the section near the top through the trees. He called me down as I shot past him so I slowed to have a chat to see if he was ok, but he literally just wanted to shoot the breeze and say how nice it was to ride there. I thought: I know and I'm only get the chance to ride down it once, you do it every day! Nice bloke though and he probably stopped me flying over a barrier on a hairpin anyway! CSB.
