    🇫🇷 Recorded on top of Alpe D’Huez, I did make it out downhill mountain biking and please find below some resources in case you wanted to do the same:


    🚲 Where I rented my DH MTB Altitude Sports: https://www.altitudesports-alpedhuez.fr

    💶 Cost with insurance and all the gear was approx: 105 Euros

    🚵🏻‍♀️ Gear included body armor (mandatory apparently), helmet, knee pads, jersey and gloves, bring your own googles or glasses

    🚠 The lift (right across from the store) was about 26 Euros

    🟢 Green trails were very easy and flowy

    🔵 Blue trails were only slightly more difficult

    ❌ I was riding alone so didn’t attempt red or black trails this time around
