The title isn't very clear. I thought this was either handbag spam or something about Oz-en-Oisans.
Anyone with local knowledge know why they can't open the road and piste beside it for cross country? Is it too narrow?

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Does “handbag” mean something more than just a bag?

You've got to love Aussie nomenculture - Windy Corner, Rocky Valley. Wonder why the map doesn't have Bogan's Ute Ditch?

Handbags is an Australian/ rugby term for biff, if no one gets hurt, or just pushing and shoving. It is used as an insult to the participants, implying that they are as soft as soccer players

There’s sometimes a clue in the name. I discovered this a few weeks ago walking out through terrible gully in the Canterbury foothills. It was.
