As a nature lover, I mainly live in a camper van in the middle of our beautiful mountains (handy for training). I've visited over 45 countries, half of them by bike.
A trip to the Briançon market followed by a coffee on the terrace of the Cappuccino place Paul Blein. And of course a Sauna/Hammam/ice bath at the Bains du Monêtier.

Always upside down!
In winter, I head for La Cucumelle, where I take a short approach walk with a breathtaking view, then do a big freeride down into the trees!
If it hasn't snowed in the last few days, you'll find me at the Snow Park!
But whatever happens, there's always a break in the sun café after the ride.
To finish the day, relax at the Grands Bains du Monêtier
The opposite of Nills Allègre: Faster on the way up than on the way down :) and a bit hyper-active
Ride up to the Col du Granon on skis, bikes or on foot to admire the sunsets in summer and paraglide back down. Perfect your tan and your cardio by cross-country skiing the 44 km of the Serre Chevalier Nordic ski area under the Hautes-Alpes sun. Eat a delicious crêpe at "Happy Day's" in La Salle les Alpes, after cross-country skiing of course!
Le Prorel to enjoy the last glimmers of winter after a long day's skiing.
Tenacious
Stroll around the ski area on a sunny day, eat at the White or Café Soleil in Ratier.
Faster downhill than uphill!
The legendary Galibier, Izoard and Granon passes, preferably by bike! Bivouac in the wild by a mountain lake. Skim without moderation the entire 250 km of trails. Skate on the frozen lake of the Parc de la Schappe

Serre Che has seen me grow, evolve, fail, win! I am a pure product of Serre Che to the depths of my heart. Home sweet home...
I'm a bit clumsy!
Stop for a lollipop at the sugar shack on the slopes, go go-karting at Parc du Colombier and zip-line to the top of the resort!
I discovered snowshoeing in Serre Che last winter because of or because of the confinement 😜

As a teenager, mountain biking and freestyle facilities were few and far between. During the summer vacations, I'd set off with my friends, shovel and pickaxe on their backs, to find "spots" where we could build bumps and then jump them on our mountain bikes. One day, we found a pile of earth ideal for a landing, so we built a 4-meter springboard upstream. The bump was great, but it was just a few meters from the main road, which was absolutely unsafe. The following year, the famous BMX race track was built on this wasteland to host the French Junior Championships, and a few years later, here we are on the same spot with a pro freestyle line, competing for the title of "war of dirt" winner with the whole French freestyle scene. Today, it's the Rolling Zone, with trails for all levels, accessible all season long free of charge!
It seems that I am nonchalant... One must beware of appearances..
Enjoy the magnificent ski area with a lunch break at the altitude restaurant Le White and a gourmet break at the Cabane à Sucre for a snack!
Go to the Baths of Monêtier after a sportive day ! Enjoy the panorama at the top of Yret.
