Go for it!  Kay has done Engadine twice, without any problems, and she is very risk averse, though she did skate it with a brake.   There is only one really big downhill  and they put mats down for people feeling sensible.

Okay Mike, you've convinced me, so when I wipe into the hedge on the side of the road its your fault! Wink. I'm registered to race and booked on the Ryanair flight. Do I need a medical note/FISS membership?
Time to get practising on the hills!! Cool

I am talking to the german team at the moment as they are booking accomodation. They are going to include me in it, but I have asked for them to tell me where asap, and then will post details here. It would be best if we can all stay in the same place!

It's looking like:
Gav
Hans
Fred
Rick
Mike
Garan
Tanya
Erika
Craig

Any others?

We will look into booking the van as well. Everyone make sure you get those same flights!! Unless you plan on going a different route.

Ok, the experts team is booked slightly out of Engadine...

Quote:
Now, I booked the rooms for the engadiner. The youthhostel in St. moritz was not possible, it was only possible for 2 nights. (?)
So, I booked in the hotel "Alte Brauerei" in Celerina.
Telefonnumber is 081 832 18 74.
I booked also a bed for you for saturday.

The price per person per night is 40,-€ in the 3er and 37,-€ in the 4er
room, included breakfast. Celerina is 3 - 4 km from st.Moritz. I think it
is possible so.


It is your guys call as to whether you want to try one of the hostels in San Moritz and be closer to the race (and the party) or come along to where I will be. I will be going to the party obviously so will cab it back to the hotel afterwards or something.

These are some hostels:
www.central-lodge.ch
www.youthhostel.ch/st.moritz
www.gruppenhaus.ch/objekte/d/427.html
Pontresina Alte Brauerei.

Hans and I found last year that we didn't need the hotel before the race, it was only useful between the race and the party (to shower and change - literally an hour or so), and then after the party.

I'm hoping to stick my name on the list of attendees.  Should be able to confirm by the end of the week.

I would like to be included in any sharing of transport from the airport and accommodation please Smile

ok, let go with Youthhostel St. Moritz in St. Moritz, Switzerland, Europe

that way we are all together - currently they have enough space by the look of things.  

I'd suggest me and erika - get a female dorm and the lads book male dorms.... unless u want to get a double bed with someone!!  currently enough space and cost is £30 for the two nights.
