From the start our intention was to offer not just great tracks, but also a relaxed atmosphere, good food, friendly, traditional accommodation and back up, that without being intrusive, was always there when you needed it.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"> In the first year we ran trail rides over just two routes, the Calais and the Normandie, but were delighted with the enthusiastic response. Suitably encouraged, the next year we added another two, slightly tougher routes, the Burgundy and the Morvan that have proved equally popular.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left">ENDURO RACING IN FRANCE</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left">One of our greatest pleasures is sharing what we like to do with others. So when we started racing enduro it was only natural for us to put together a turn-key racing/assistance package for the French ‘classic’ enduros. And when we say ‘turn- key’ we mean just that. All you have to do is turn up with your bike and a jerry can and we take care of all the rest – entries, assistance, accommodation…..</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left"> The dates and entry fees have not yet been announced but if you’d like any further information, to put your name down on a reserve list, or simply discuss our assistance package with us in more detail, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left">MOUNTAIN BIKING IN FRANCE</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left">To be honest when we first decided to start riding mountain bikes we did so uniquely to improve our pathetic fitness levels. But the more we did it the more we liked it. For a start we saw stuff that we’d never noticed before while out riding motorcycles, plus we really liked that feeling you get of having taken some serious exercise! Now we are completely hooked and so have decided to organise some mountain bike raids along similar lines to our trail riding holidays.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left">To start with we are using the same area as we use for the Normandie trail rides. Obviously the distances aren’t as big (approx. 60 kms per day) and the tracks aren’t all the same (what’s fun on a motorcycle isn’t necessarily fun on an MTB and visa versa) but we will be using the same system of road books and allowing everyone to go at their own pace (and cut the course if they want!). More routes are planned for the future.</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left">SNOW-MOBILING IN CANADA</p> <p class="MsoNormal" align="left">What to do in when it’s too cold and the ground is too hard to ride – go snow-mobiling in Canada. OK, perhaps not the greatest piece of lateral thinking, but the best we can manage. At the moment this project is in its infancy, but the idea is to go at least once early next year - sometime in February 2000. Since first suggesting the idea the response has been encouraging and we are currently working out the details. If you’re interested don’t hesitate to get in touch – more details will be posted as soon as we have them.</p> <p align="left">Look forward to seeing you soon.</p> <p align="left"><a href="mailto:chris.evans@sport-adventure.com">Chris Evans</a><br> Sport Adventure<br> 156, Boulevard Voltaire<br> 75011 Paris<br> France</p> <p align="left"><strong>Tel:</strong> + 33 (0)1 43 72 86 02<br> <strong>Fax:</strong> + 33 (0)1 43 72 61 09<br> <strong>Mobile:</strong> + 33 (0)6 62 48 71 90</p> <p align="left">Unfortunately your browser doesn't support frames, so you can't view the rest of our fantastic site.
