If anyone's bored and lives or rides near Ladybower then Alpkit/Sondor have a nice video of normal local riding. You can play spot that trail.

FFS Link isn't working, you'll have to do it manually, sorry.

Nice video, ridden pretty much all of that.

I'd want a different bike though to really enjoy that riding.

Nice, and on a budget hardtail too!

Some of the trails looked great, where was the bermed corners and trail centre-esqu bit at the end?

Lady Cannings trails for the berms then finishes on Houndkirk moor main track.

He'd've been shouldering his bike a long way to get to the top of Win Hill without riding...

Cool little video. And nice to see a well-put together eminently-watchable video featuring some, er, 'normal' riding. Enjoyed it. But I've got a total mancrush on Sonder bikes.

Where's the singletrack through the trees that's about halfway through the video?

Yeah like superficial says nice to see someone doing some normal riding on a cheapish bike.

Looks like one of the trails in the woods north of Win Hill which run down to the bottom track at Ladybower. Might be wrong though.

Used to be called The Beast didn’t it?

Looks like the descent to Hagglee?

It’s been 10 years since I’ve been there!

Edit, you said single track and I was thinking of the wide rocky descent

He goes from Win Hill -> drone shot along tree line —> hope cross then down the Beast. Then Cannings / Houndkirk.

No cheeky single track (except going up at the start).

I'm talking about the bit at ~1:08, directly after the beast.

Cannings is after the fireroad, and doesn't start until about ~1:30.

As you come down the Beast, after the gate and by the first right hander, there may be some cheeky stuff of to the left. Not that I have been on it. It looks like he is on the tame bit of that to me.

I thought those sheep at the beginning were paddling.

Oh yeah, I missed that bit somehow. I think Tracey probably has it.

Looks fun! Anyone ridden one of the new Frontiers? Fancy building one as a cheap ss but wary of how stiff a cheap alu frame is going to be.
