Great riding and some lovely shots.
It's nice to see Danny riding something different on a different bike.

I do think that Chris Akrigg looks much more comfortable and in control on on FS bikes though.

My hands and feet feel all funny now.

Impressive stuff.
I don't think I'll be trying the barbed wire trick any time soon.

That's one way to get over a fence.

Its a long time since a bike video gave me goose bumps....that was very impressive. I've climbed the Black Cuillin ridge many times so this was properly impressive in my books. The exposure on some of those ridges is very 'squeaky bum' on foot, never mind on a bike.

Video of the month for me.

Is there a way you can select a frame from that and embed as a screen saver?

Beautifully shot film that

I applaud his bike carrying and climbing skills on the Inn-Pinn. And the rest of it of course. The photography is the best bit of that video though. One of the best adverts for Skye I've ever seen.

The scenery is so stunning that I hardly noticed his riding.
The definition of exposed riding though and I had vertigo watching him climb to the top.

Really enjoyed watching that, far more than the last one that was set in the abandoned town.

I wonder if he turned his Strava on, possible KOM?

Amazing.

Wow, more impressed by that than any of his other films to be honest, there's something about taking on nature that's so compelling compared to the regular urban trials type stuff.

Nice to see him doing all that on a 'proper'bike too. Agree on Santa Cruz colours at the moment though - what the hell?

I think I'd be shitting it walking up that tiny ridge even with 2 hands clinging on to the rock, let alone 1 or no handed with a bike on my shoulder, and coming back down after, he's not hanging about on the path along the side of the ridge, what a nutter.

Worst bit for me was the GoPro footage, both in terms of quality and the shots.

Just awesome. The flip at the end was unexpected as well haha.

How did he get it so quiet? The Pinn is as busy as hell on a fairly unblowy day like that. Lugging a bike up it as well=spacehopper sized balls(almost as big as the camera operator!)

Simply superb. On my tick list of places to visit once the last child has finished university. (I shall not be riding any of that).

the fence was a good trick

the scenery was nice

someone stole his boat, he's probably still sitting there

was that him on the top of that spiky bit there or a double? You don't actually see his face.

Proper good. Despite gasping in awe at Rampage the other night, that video is way more impressive for me. I work with a woman whose kids love Danny and it's awesome to think he's inspiring a new generation with stuff that like.
