😆 Cheers man! I'm trying to cut the length down on these! Music is by Slackstring, they are a Canadian band, think they have one song on the collective mind 🙂

Good work as usual, I always enjoy your clips and they tend to be on the trails I ride, although I've never seen Wharncliffe dry!

Thinking about the comment above about weird lines, is it fair to say a hardtail would take different lines to a full sus?

hmmmmm. yeh. but the bit im talking about is the top of diamond back, where the lads are essentially off the track in the trees, then turn back onto the main track and istantly a lad goes over the bars.

ive ridden WC on a hardtail many times, and rarely pop off into the woods to avoid rocks!

you can go where ever you like, if it was a 2 inch wide track that had to be approved by a "better" rider it'd be crap

well **** me eh? not as if you posted a video on an open forum is it? fancy someone passing comment on it...

whats all this 'better' rider boll0cks?

for the record. half the easier dh 'tracks' in wharnecliffe look suspiciously like motorways these days, with lines here there and everywhere cutting out the majority of technical/harder bits. so whether im 'better' or not, i'd prefer it in general if people could stick roughly to the track, then we might have a track rather than a 10ft wide stetch of rutted dirt.

sorry didn't realise you were

A, so touchy
B, the trail police

If you have such an issue with tracks then maybe you shouldn't be riding at all since it all contributes.
I'm off to put some 1.75 tyres on so I can use. 45 of an inch more trail than everyone else without causing any extra damage

That's not me falling off on dimond back either or my vid, I was only passing comment on your passing comment.

doesn't the path just go that way? I've never seen it go t'other way? That bit before the log drop off, down the left is a massive rock fest. Proper lumpy stuff. Great fun to scoot over them if you're going fast enough.

rather than a 10ft wide stetch of rutted dirt.

From memory its always been like that in most parts of the naturally worn down stuff. I remember 5yrs ago every play bit had multiple (wide) points of entry and the bit before the singletrack approach to pass under the pylon was always wide.
