Is there a better way to kick off the start of the season than cutting a hot lap down Morzine's most famous downhill track, a few local beers, great food and a raging after party?! If so, were open to suggestions, but in the mean time get yourself to the 5th Annual Le Pleney chainless mates race. If you have the most fun, you are the best biker on the mountain.

FUN, LIGHT HEARTED & ACCESSIBLE TO ALL. These are the 3 main principles of the Bike Morzine mates race series. These are not "races" as you know them; no pressure, no crappy tracks, no pushy race dads. Alternatively race concepts provide a lighthearted and interesting format to race against your mates. We aim to bring the Morzine summer community together over their love of riding bikes, all washed down by local beers, good food and a raging afterparty.  A huge thank you to those that support grassroots mountain biking, help keep these races free, & provide ridiculous prizes!
