So this might be a little premature.

By start saving as i am sure we will do another Alpine trip again next summer. The more that comes the cheaper it will be as we plan to just rent a Chalet for us as it will be cheaper.

I would say the best bike would be a Cheap DH bike as though we would not be doing DH, these bikes work so much better on the bigger trails.

I know this is a bit early to start planning, but had some spare time in work whilst on a teleconferance.

So I have looked and we couold get a appartment or Chalet next year that will sleep up to 8 people for around £400. So if we have 6 to 8 people the it would be no more than £100 each. PLus as we sort of know we can get the ferry for around £65 return then I think we can do it a lot cheaper next year.

It all looks good to me, as you guys have a better idea of what you doing I'm just happy to go with the majority.
There had better be some downhill after this climb...
