Very good. Didn't notice any pussy lines ๐Ÿ˜‰
Don't think anyone could say that's not mountain biking.

Very impressed. Looks great fun. I really wish I had the skills/guts to ride stuff like that. It shows the advantage of not being clipped in.

Thanks - that was ace - I'd love to be able to ride like that. Plus the silly accents made it more fun to watch ๐Ÿ˜€

Brilliant - I thoroughly enjoyed that. While the guys are good they're not pros and that's what I love about these videos. They're like us, just a little better (than me at least). Any chance of some well known northern UK bike companies giving these guys some kit at trade?

Bloody good that.
I'm dead keen on a trip to the lakes or north York moors this year and seeing that video has made my mind up.

Brilliant stuff. Best on yet.

This.

While it's fun to watch pros riding ridiculous stuff and jumping 40ft gaps, I know that I'm never going to be able to do it myself. It's really nice to see normal (but still very skilled) riders tackling normal (but still bloody difficult in places) trails. We try, we sometimes fall off, we try again. Warms the cockles, that does.

Very nice video (bit too homo-erotic in parts for my tastes but live and let live ๐Ÿ˜‰ ), what was the route? Don't recognise much of it.

Way beyond anything I would ever do . Makes all the ATGNI stormtroopers who ride in Surrey in full armor look even more over-dressed.
I guess that was 2 weeks ago when summer was here ?
Take out the 2 secs of the lad having a whizz ..... unneccessary spoiler.

Looks great, we walked St Sunday Crag a couple of weeks back. Impressive riding. One slight hang up though, isn't St Sunday a footpath?

All they needy was a was a knotted hankie on their heads ๐Ÿ˜† Good skills.

Any chance of some well known northern UK bike companies giving these guys some kit at trade?

Ay a few of them needed Jerseys!

I love these videos, if only because they piss the [i]cyclists[/i] of this forum off. Keep it up lads!

It has it all: Coil shocks on Orange 5s, 160mm forks, dual ply tyres, it's bike porn destined to offend the singeltrackati!

Ok, I'll bite....

Uh? Are you referring to the comment about it being a footpath, or are you not a cyclist?

Great video, looks like a fun day.

Really like the Public Service Broadcasting track at the end too, though it does sound a lot like Golden Path by the Chems I've noticed.

But anyway, top riding and videoing.

Cracking video. I've not done St Sunday Crag yet - I'll have to add it to the list. Doing Helvellyn soon, so might be an option...

Great vid!

I love a bit of cheeky riding, but like to keep it low key. So have mixed feelings about this one. I walked off the end of St. Sundays the other week, saw a few tracks and thought "Bloody 'ell, this would be good".
But watching a large group cutting through the switchbacks at the bottom in glorious HD quality for ALL to see, it's gonna wind people up.
Right to roam? Right to ride? You know the red socks are just looking for an excuse to contain us within trail centres...

Great video to watch as usual, riding to aspire too.

Left thinking, yer try all that on a Soul though, then I notice what one of you is riding ๐Ÿ˜€
