It’s modest, but it’s our new EU homeWe’ve been busy over the Xmas break, packing boxes and hauling stuff from our old office, on the industrial park near Rossignol world HQ, to a modest but homely space in an old shop.
We’re not fully up and running yet (France Telecom seem to think it’s normal that a simple re-connection of a phone line takes 6+ weeks…) but we’re gradually getting unpacked and the office will be fully open by next week as planned. We’re situated in the town of Voiron, near Grenoble in the French Alpes, opposite a church dating to 1150 AD. There’s a pizza place next door, plus a butcher, baker… but no candlestick maker. Instead we have a shop selling Foie Gras… The reason we chose a shop space is that we’re going to be holding open days for some selected customers in SE France, plus it gives us the light and space to have a mini showroom of our bikes. It’s not a glamorous space, but it’s clean and tidy and much less clinical than the corporate office box space we’ve been in for the past few years. If you are ever in the area, or perhaps heading to the Megavalanche (Alpe d’Huez is 1hr down the road) then don’t hesitate to drop by: Mountain Cycle Europe SARL, 73 Rue Sermorens, 38500 Voiron, France – Phone remains unchanged +33 4 76 35 80 06
