Many apple-ogies if this has been done, but I've had a LOT of cider, and was moved..
It's been moved too:

That's it. Ta.
love the first part
Nicely shot and edited with great bike skills. I would LOVE to make a film about road cycling in the Ribble valley and Bowland fells; the scenery is so special and there are so many cyclists around. It would be something stylish and atmospheric like the moorland shots in this:
Looks like Wakerley Woods!
I must be getting jaded in my old age, its more of the same to me. At least (as far as I watched) there were no high fives, air guitars or mention of being on a journey or returning to where it all started. I'm looking at you Coastal Crew. 😉
Two Broad Arrows on the other hand was brilliant.

Nah, not enough mud, nettles, brambles or (more recently) oddly thought-out and built FC blue trails.
plus one for Two Broad Arrows. Ace.

A recent run took me through Wakerly woods last month, first time I have been there since new trails have been built.
...erm...interesting routes.
I love that video - how to ride an AM bike properly!!!
Yup - beautifully shot indeed. Amazing riding too - especially on an AM bike with normal helmet etc.

This - too many gratuitous product shots (slow-mo on the rockshox bottle? please no).
I think it was nicely shot and composed and had lots of nice visual elements, but the audio was sorely lacking - the music was bland as anything, and where there was audio, it was poorly placed and completely understated.
I found the grading a little tedious, the end of the summer/summer evening colours are a little tired, and it would have looked nicer with a more natural grade.
Broadly, i'd have preferred to see some kind of narrative arc to it - this starts off like there might be something, even a weak arc - but the stuff on the jumps which it ends on completely destroy that, and it ends up like a compilation of stuff they shot, rather than a 'film' - if it had finished at the bottom of the hill (however constructed that might be) then it would have been better, and shorter...
