Marmotte 2010

You'll have a blast but, and this is the important bit, you have to train for it properly. If you've never ridden in the mountains before then I'd recommend you do so beforehand so you understand what you're undertaking.

Where did you train? There's been some chatter about heading over to the Dolomites next year and if I can use them as a sharpener that'd be sweet but not sure about timings.

Heading up north to random spots on the train for weekends would be good but I'm pretty shit with logistics and mappings so it would be a big planning headache.

Chilterns just don't get near what we did in the Pyrenees and the Alps are even harder, right?
