Don’t say we never treat you to anything – the makers of the low-fi riding film, Pretty Sweet, have arranged for us to show their handiwork in three parts over the next week.
Pretty Sweet is all about the kind of riding the average person does. There are no massive jumps, no death defying drops, it’s just about escaping into the mountains to ride with friends, having adventures and seeing what you find. It’s been shown at the prestigious Llanberis Mountain Film Festival, Edinburgh Mountain Film Festival and other showings throughout the country, but now you lovely lot can see it yourselves…
Views per episode are going to be limited to 5,000 so you’d best hurry up.
Fantastic; I reckon some people here need to relax and cheer up, or maybe like to take some initiative and show us what they can do! 🙂
I really enjoyed it, especially the cable-cam bit at the end!
+1 on Metasequoia’s comments.

this is better
Good video, dont know why people are complaining about the quality of the riding. Like they said there just average riders and its not like there bad or anything they seem quite fast/smooth at times.
I do think you do need to show some one actually riding up a hill though Dave !!!
Quite enjoyable I thought. Tough crowd here.
Like the premise, but to me the trail centre stuff is very dull. The interest in seeing “normal” riders out there riding is in the sort of trails ridden and the scenery around them.
Wow – you guys are harsh! I thought it was a good effort. Part 2 was even better.
I also think the riding is mostly smooth fast and fun. I bet it’d be a shock to many if you filmed yourselves on the same bits of track.
Nice example…. of why bike videos are all jumps and drops and high speed descents. I fell asleep. Could have been the yawn inducing music.
They also said the ‘g’ word. With a brit accent. And it wasn’t before doing a 360 backflip to frontflip table flair thing…
Comrade
yes great vid not sure how he would fare in our rather wet and cold climate and trails. I would love to spend my day like him with dust following me down the trails and ripping over dry tree stumps But currently icicles follow me down the trail LOL

Nice to see this again, think i spoke to you or one of the other lads involved at the ‘premiere’ with VAST at Delamere a few months back. Real riding and must have taken a lot of time and effort to put together. Made me want to ride, job done.
Great film
I only visit STW for stuff like this, i gave up the forum because of (some) of the knob heads on there.
This says it all http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=singletrackworld
Thanks Mccett. Was a good little night at Delamere. Free cake and over a hundered quid raised made it seem worthwhile.
I get it.
I like riding. So do many people.
