I've been working with komoot for the past four years, but as Americans, Rue and I haven't had a chance to meet most of the team in Europe. Gaby and I were talking in the spring about connecting for an overnighter, and she had moved with her family to Morzine in the French Alps a few months ago. With COVID-19 in mind, we penciled in a weekend to get together while Rue and I were planning to be in Europe for the Hope 1000 in Switzerland. As the time grew closer, it looked like a go and the trip grew to a great group of eleven riders from the UK, France and Sami from Spain.We had a total blast. The first day, we took cover from a thunderstorm in Les Gets, had lunch at the Buvette and climbed steep, loose gravel to the Bostan Refuge. We were the only people at a hut that sleeps 80! It poured with rain overnight and we were happily inside and cozy. The next day was spent mostly descending, but it was still a tough one at that. Spirits were high and we made it back by mid afternoon.While in the area, I got to meet up with a few other friends and ride with Gaby's kids to school twice. What a fun trip! Thanks for putting everything together so thoughtfully, Gaby. It was really great to get to know the crew and I hope we can come back again soon!
Notre incroyable groupe de 11 coureurs est parti pour monter au Refuge de Bostan, mais a rapidement dû s'abriter de la tempête aux Gets pour laisser passer le pire !
Quelques chocolats chauds et gâteaux plus tard, nous avons continué dans les montagnes, devant de magnifiques lacs, des sanctuaires au bord…

Bien que nous ayons passé la majeure partie de la deuxième journée à descendre du refuge de Bostan, ce n'était toujours pas facile!
