Due to land at Lyon at 1105, Saturday 4 March. Still Parisian half term I think. What time should I allow from landing to out of door? I'll have skis as well as luggage. UK passport. My first thoughts are to allow 1-1/4 hours. But I'd be grateful for advice from those with recent experience.

Lyon arrivals are actually usually pretty good. Passport control quick and efficient and have never had to wait a significant period of time on bags.
It is passport control when departing which is frequently an absolute disaster. When you get your gate, go immediately to it so you get through immigration, they frequently don't have enough staff on or the automated passport scanners have gone tech.

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

I've been through Lyon a few times in the last couple of years (recent?). Never taken more than an hour, bags always arrive quickly, the big Q is passport control which is a bit of a lottery because it depends how many other flights have arrived at about the same time as yours!
Overall, I think Lyon is better than Grenoble (easily) and at least as smooth as Geneva-the main attraction for us for the latter is car hire comes with winter tyres as we self drive.

Pity you have luggage, I normally do it in 20 minutes from the plane door to the bus.

We may have been lucky, but landing on the first Saturday of the first UK half term week we were in our (pre-booked) taxi 45 minutes after wheels down. Admittedly that was relatively late in the day (9pm ish), but did include waiting for one piece of checked luggage.
