COAST TO COAST (17-22 septembre 2017)
William bonjour,
Personnellement j'ai pleinement profité de mes... 2 jours et demi ! ;-)
Pour l'hôtellerie et les repas c'était impeccable et très agréable. Quant aux pistes, c'était génial : belles combinaisons de pistes faciles et un peu difficiles, de tronçons roulants et reposants. Juste ce qu'il fallait pour des amateurs un peu initiés et pour aller parfois un petit peu au-delà de nos limites personnelles. Et les Dieux du "beau temps" étaient avec nous ! La formule confort est taillée "sur mesure" !
Merci Anna et William pour cette belle aventure et fier d'avoir inauguré le "Coast to Coast" !
Rendez-vous en septembre prochain !? ;-)
Merci pour tout.

Salut Anna & William,
J'ai adoré cette ballade pyrénéenne où j'ai craqué pour les paysages. Super organisation et bravo pour l'hôtellerie.
Encore merci à vous deux et à nos amis belges pour leur convivialité et leur bonne humeur inégalable...
A bientôt.

Mes amis,
Un petit mot de la Belgique. Comme vous j'ai vraiment bien aimé le trail Coast to Coast même si au début j'étais bien stressé à cause de mon petit problème technique qui m'a empêché de participer le premier jour. Un petit miracle a fait que j'ai trouvé une pièce de rechange. Il ne reste que de bons souvenirs, des routes formidables, un paysage magnifique, des hôtels parfaits mais surtout des amis inoubliables. J'espère vous revoir bientôt en Belgique, en France ou en Espagne.
