Crest to the Med

August 30, 2013 Ryan and Mel 2 Comments

All photos from this trip are HERE, previous installment HERE Staying in Crest, we had, or rather tried for a morning run, but I think our bodies were beat!  The run was flat but so were our batteries!  Once we made it back we just about made the very busy…

Valloire to Crest

August 23, 2013 Ryan and Mel 1 Comment

All photos from this trip are HERE, previous installment HERE Think we spoke too soon about being incident free…. Mel had a bit of an off – nothing major, and ironically it was caused by not going fast enough round a banked corner.  I know it was a 180’ corner…

August 15, 2013 Ryan and Mel 1 Comment

All photos from this trip are HERE, previous installment HERE Staying at Vallorie, our biking has improved and (touch wood) – our extra body armour has so far not been needed – we’ve stayed surprisingly accident free!  The worst its got is having to put a foot down so, so…

Away in France again!

August 8, 2013 Ryan and Mel Leave a comment

All photos from this trip are HERE After what feels like a long time, we’re off again on another trip!  Though in honesty, this is more of a long holiday than a trip as we will are going away to do something specific, so we’re not randomly exploring this time. …

Camping in the snow at Valloire

Snowboarding with Campervan in Valloire

February 8, 2013 Ryan and Mel 1 Comment

Thought it was about time we posted again as it looks like we’ve not been up to much.  The thing is, we have, but nothing as long or as challenging as previous trips, so not really worth saying much about!  It also looks like the van hasn’t been used much,…

89-93 Vang Vieng to Luang Prabang

February 26, 2012 Ryan and Mel 1 Comment

See trip index here, Laos index here, and more photos from Laos here Vang Vieng is pretty much a nowhere place – its entire existence seems to be a travellers way point and has little Laos character, but the scenery and activities more than make up for it.  To be…

Week 5 – Les Deux Alpes to Homps

August 17, 2011 Ryan and Mel 1 Comment

Index for this trip HERE After exploring L2A and not really feeling chilled there, the weather turned to heavy rain which made the decision to leave for us.  We decided to head for Gap for no other reason than the route would take us via roads and places we’ve never…

Week 4 – Valloire to Les Deux Alpes

August 8, 2011 Ryan and Mel Leave a comment

Index for this trip HERE We awoke at the start of our 4th week to glorious sunshine, so we were out bright and early on the trails.  They opened up another lift, so we took that up and played on trails that we hadn’t tried before, as well as improving…

Week 3 – Valloire

July 31, 2011 Ryan and Mel 1 Comment

Index for this trip HERE We started week 3 counting bruises on Mel, but apart from the multi-colouring she was fine.  We opted for a day off biking and instead went on a good walk to one of the little mountain villages, passed a gorge and waterfall we didn’t know…

Week 2 – Chanez to Valloire

July 25, 2011 Ryan and Mel Leave a comment

Index for this trip HERE After a couple of great hot days at Chanez the weather turned overnight to a massive storm.  Which would have been fine if we remembered we left the skylight open, but with the blackout blind we didn’t noticed till the blind became full of water…
