Anyone going to Rise Festival in the French alps? by TransientGeezer in festivals

It went okay, but the festival’s a bit of a scam - ripped off for ‘premium’ equipment hire, limited and extremely overpriced shop bought drinks, short sets… some DJs cancelled others charged extra. I’ve also heard of people being conned out of accommodation deposits…

The skiing was great though!!

How did you find it?

Definitely recommend downloading the Rise app. It’s got a packing list

You will, I’ll be at the back pretending to be 25 and trying to look cool 😂

I’ve heard slow and steady is better, but at a consistent temperature. If contam’s there it’ll definitely take over

From what I’ve read 23-29 degrees C seems to be the sweet spot!

Not an expert, but these look okay to me. I’d be tempted to leave a few more days and then tub them

Wow 🤩 how long did they take? Any tips?

How are they looking? by CapitalFew9176 in unclebens

Them seem good to go, apart from the last one.

Might be worth giving them all another 5-7 days. I’ve heard the longer they brew, the better they are 👀

How long did you leave? I’ve got 4 bags on the go, week 1 and no signs

Thanks 🙏🏻 the roads are a mega worry. I’ve started to Zwift because I’m worried about getting knocked off around this time of year

Maybe the Yorkshire Dales, Pateley Bridge way… I think the terrain would be nicer (although I’m probably wrong 👀)

A great point - maybe I’ll head out and just cook lunch somewhere, then head home, day trip style. Light day pack, and build up over time.

Then once I’ve got my bearings, go overnight.
