They said they will never catch on! ๐Ÿ˜†

A few turned up for a ride on Saturday at North Berwick, a couple of regulars on here too, inc a normal MTB (MTBs ride the coast too!, just not the same giggle factor)

Anyways some pics and waffle here; http://coastkid.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/saturdays-beach-rideout-with-posse.html

And some film ๐Ÿ™‚

Fantastic ride, make me want to run out of the house now and buy a Fat bike. I'm not to far up the coast from you, Dundee, so plenty access to beaches.

Very nice Porsche at the end also. Even better, Chips with malt vinegar.

Funny isn't it really? ...Fatbikes are probably truer to the original sense of mountain bikes than modern mountain bikes have become. (Nevertheless, I won't be getting one just yet!)

Nice vid.

The sequence through the woods actually looks fast....how did you manage that then? Did you speed up the film?

I now want a pair of Nates............ ๐Ÿ˜€

Are all those trails shown legal?
They seem very narrow for bridalways.
