[hemi427]

My italian is still pathetic so I hope u dont mind if I write in english.Some time ago u guys helped me a lot advicing about places to go/ride in Milan. I got my bike here,is am/trail rig called iron horse mk3 ;)...so far in riding in parco lambro because my school wont allow me to have more free time.Anyway no dh for me but some XC laps doing fine nownow but Im organizing some trip for few guys from school. I Picked bikeaprk mottolino as a place to go,on websites looks awesome.We gonna rent bikes there. My question is if there are any advice from u about this place? maybe you guys know some good and cheap place to stay for 2 nights. We r going there for 19-21th of june weekend in 5 guys.

U were much helpful last time so I will be grateful for some advice,cheers guys and keep pininng ;)

well,i think that if u guys wanna do some DH the best place to ride here in italy is,without a doubt,Pila,near Aosta(in Valle D'Aosta)..actually i think there are a couple of places better than the mottolino bike park..

Mottolino is a really fun park, it has a lot of jumps and berms, and it's easy to ride... from milan you have to drive almost 2 hours and a half, it's a nice place to stay here some days, al least 3.

If you would like to try a real DH track, pila is better, from milan is far 2 hours, it's really hard and the plase is amazing... is ideal for a 1dayrun.
here you can find some pics of Pila DH track:

in both places you can rent DH bikes.

ciao guys,
Thank for everything,you were much helpful.Its sort of chill out trip,I couldnt seat any more in town so I came up with idea for a bike park inviting some non-biking friends.They are going just to try.For me good break and finally some mountains.After my master this year im gonna aplly for a job here in milan and if i succed first fly to get my ih sunday here and then guys we can race! ;) I heard a lot about Pila and its my target for trip but with my bike and pinning for at least week.Mottolino seems to be better for rest of the guys,they never try,trails look like more fun-for them of course.If they will be happy - me too.

I got the hotel,thanks again for advice mates.

Only thing is mottolino itself.Im trying to reach them by phone but they are not answering,I'll keep calling.
Maybe some of u know what kind of kona's we can rent there ? will it include full face helmet or not really? and most important for me- is there any chances to get there some clipses and shoes? ;)
thanks
