Great little vid. Also struggling to place the very first clip. I started collecting a few little bits of footage last summer round Woburn to put something together but might start again from scratch when the weather improves.
Brought back memories, that. There used to be a great jump there, a step down between two trees followed by a horseshoe berm around a tree and then a big double. I haven't ridden there for years mind.
You are talking in code there, Jedi. It was just past a clearing where there all logs laying around? There was a bit of a downhill run that ended in the same place that the double was.
Gawd, I'm going back 10 years at least mate. There was an old stile that was by the lay-by where we all parked. 100 metres or so in front of that there was a clearing and a little jump that led into a step down. From there you went straight up a big, right hand horseshoe berm maybe 30 ft high and then straight into the big double. I think! As I say, it's been years.
I remember thinking I was effing superman the first time I did that double, it was big. Especially for those days when we rode small, modified XC bikes. I saw several frames go in half on that jump…SNAP!
