Our Ukranian friends have made it back to Poltava..

For the last few years we have had Ukranian guests at the beginning of the season.. last year they flew.. but this year to make more of their holiday they decided to drive.. it took them a total of three days to get to Morzine! Sergei (the group leader) is a dentist but he spends his spare time metal detecting and last year he found a Napoleonic Coin in a field near Poltava.. which he presented to H and I for good luck at the end of his holiday.. :-) So a very big thank you to Sergei, Victor and friends and please see below picture as promised..

The biggest day so far...

It was one of those days which by the end our legs had no more love to give.. it was a struggle to make it down the home run to the Kinkerne.. We hit the Super Morzine trees, secret lines over at the happy valley and a hike in to the hidden valley.. myself, Tom and Jonny Freeride didn't stop until we dropped..
