The 10fifty Mountain Biking Holiday Team |
As a small specialist mountain bike holiday company all of us are mountain bikers and that is why we are invloved with 10fifty. We thought you might like to know a little more about the team before choosing 10fifty Mountain Biking for your holiday so here is a quick run down of the people who help your mountain biking holiday to be the best ever.
- Ian Mills - (AKA - Mr Mills) - The Boss and importantly the head guide. It was his dissatisfaction with the way other mountain biking holiday companies operated that drove him to set up his own. He believes that the mountain biking is the most important thing, but then everything should then be as good as well. Perfection on the trails and in the kitchen. Read Ian's mountain biker profile.
- Ty Garber - (AKA - Ty) - Providing the push to get 10fifty really going, Ty has been fundermental to it becoming a more professional operation. He is in charge of the promotion of the company and deals with bookings from the USA and Canada. Has done well at all types of cycling from road racing to downhilling, a true mountain biker now with an obsession for buying bikes. Read Ty's mountain biker profile.
Tim Butler - (AKA - Butler) - The office monkey and reserve guide. It is likely it will be Tim you speak to by phone or email if you contact the 10fifty office. Been mountain biking in Chamonix as long Ian, but has been seduced by the darkside and now runs the office alongside a 'normal' job. Mountain bike guides several times a year to avoid being called 'Fat Office Boy" too much. Read Butler's mountain biker profile.
- Matt Jones - (AKA - Bones) - Another guide for 10fifty. Too many years on a bike for his nuts to ever forgive him. Completely laid back around the chalet only ever moves fast on a mountain bike and then it is really fast. Gets impressive air off the most unlikely of objects. Read Bones' mountain biker profile.
- John P - (AKA - The Big Guy, JP) - From Montana USA, Big John has ridden some big mountains! He toured around Europe and stayed with 10fifty in Chamonix in 2004. It was love at first ride with the trails and came back to Chamonix to work as a mountain bike holiday guide for 10fifty in 2005. A great guy both on and off the bike. Takes a mean mountain biking photo too! Read John's mountain biker profile.
