It's not often...
 

[Closed] It's not often I'm impressed with "home made" biking videos...

Well shot and some stunning scenery. But not my kind of riding at all! The riders are much more skillful than me, but you could find riding like that in any old quarry. If I climbed all the way up there it would have to be swooping single track all the way down.

the liteville crew... not sure if that classifies it as homemade or not?

either way it is beautifully shot and edited nicely

A ride accompanied by the smell of burning brakes...Impressive skills but as taxi25 suggested, not my sort of riding at all. Fast swoopy singletrack every time.

Oh, aye njee, don't get me wrong, they've got more skill than me. I wouldn't enjoy it 'cause most of the time I'd be shitting myself....

Lovely. Wee hardtail with 80mm forks would be better than a big bike up there though. Both for carrying up and hopping down.

Can't believe nobody's mentioned the huge camelbaks yet....

Pretty slick production, but I say "home made" in the sense that it's all filmed on a Panasonic Micro 4/3 camera with a couple of different lenses.

Film-maker is a guy I was at Glasgow Uni with, half a lifetime ago.

Yeah, that's a little step up from "Home made", guy clearly knows what he's doing...
