Six days of exploring dusty, rocky trails beside the sea. We knew of some trails already but they were a bit xc style and I was keen to find more enduro type stuff. We hit the jackpot one day bumping into some locals who pointed us in the direction of the course of an enduro race at Theoule sur la Mer. Awesome tight steep switchbacks, rock slabs, jumps, bermed corners, dusty flowy singletracks. Happy days. We came back with a map covered in trails named after events that took place on them – death trail, puncture trail, the schizzle, rockhopper and porn trail.

Even managed a cheeky stop off in Finale on the way home for a couple of descents and a beer on the beech. Rad.
