Hi all.... In January, I will be lucky enough to be going to Lausanne, Switzerland on business. I have one day to myself and would like to go riding. I understand I will be pretty to close to a few places, but am not exactly sure where to go. Does anyone know the area? Have any...

In general, how good was the snow in Europe this year? Another rain/snow mix year? Last year, the first snow we got in Norway wasn't until February, and it usually falls in October.

now that the ranges in Scotland are all open I was wondering if anyone was heading up any time soon? i live in glasgow just now so i'm only a few hours away if anyone's game? im even willing to give you a sleeping bag for the night in my flat! lol

I was pretty much wondering if anyone had been to the 3 Valleys area or specifically Val Thorens in the last few years. is it good to go to and is anyone going this year? I'm going the week before Xmas with my uni snowsports club so let me know if you'll be in the area and meybe me and my hip...
