I've just watched it and come to the conclusion he's bloody brilliant - that wall ride was ace. The git.

He's going to scratch that bike if he's not careful.

It's vids like this that compound exactly how pants I am.

Must be nice, never having to stop and open a gate.

Awesome, but I thought everyone knew if you're going to climb over a gate you should stand at the hinge end
What, me jealous. No I know my limitations, I couldn't walk most of that

I don't i'll ever call a trail "boring" from now on. I'm clearly not riding it right.

Awesome, I wish I had 0.5% of his talent.

Any ideas where it's filmed, a couple of bits look familiar but don't think they are if that makes sense? ๐Ÿ˜€

I rode those Embsay Crag trails last week. If anyone was watching I probably looked just like that..

0:48 to 1:30 is Embsay crag. I've never seen anybody take that route down. Its steep enough to walk it. Most riders take the easier route off to the right from the top.

Might need to pre-book my air ambulance if I ever try have the balls to try it.

That gate hopping would come in very handy round here.

It'd propper upset some of the redsocks. ๐Ÿ™‚

Said it before but we are the same age and come from the same town. Me and my chums, when we first got cars used to laugh at him jumping bins in the Town Hall carpark while we were cruising about chasing girls.

Who's laughing now? ๐Ÿ˜ณ

there's just something in his style that makes him standout fom the other brilliant trials based riders.

The bit where his rear wheel starts to slip of the tree is unbelievable.

The control is out of this world.
