What a lovely place. Neustift a typical small Austrian ski village. It was A good spot as it was in the middle of the valley. We had free passes to the ski lifts & the busses Snowed on the Sunday at the top of the first lift from Neustift then rained till Monday when we went to Innsbruck. Tuesday went on the summer tobogen run in Mieders (see Meiders coaster no brakes ) great fun that was. Weather stayed good from Tuesday ,walked on the nearby glacier & did a lot of walking in general but no cycling . Should of come home on Saturday but thanks to City jet had to stay another night then fly home on Sunday from Saltzburg .The OH thought skiing looked fun so she booked a taster session at the Mendip dry ski slope on Friday..... it didn't end well about fifteen minutes in she fell over & hurt her right hand so sat the rest of it out , I carried on to the end She thinks she should go to A&E so I drove to Yeovil hospital . She now has a broken wrist No Squirrels involved this time. Back to work for me on Monday

She now has a broken wrist No Squirrels involved this time. Back to work for me on Monday I lived in Salzburg for just over a year in my early 20s. Stunning place. I had my bike with me and used it to commute around the city. Loved the cycle paths alsongside the Salzach river. Did a couple of bike tours while out there (pre-Strava), one along the Salzach valley and over to Innsbruck, the other into South Tyrol and then back across into Austria via Carinthia and Styria. Will be based in Vienna for a week at the end of Feb for work and very tempted see if I can ride along the Danube for a couple of days. Hope your OH is recovering Grant. My OH broke her wrist when she went over the handlebars trying to video us on our ride down the Flamdal valley in Norway. Thought it was a sprain at first but it took two x-rays to discover the break.
