This what I've been working on for the past 3 days. Click the HD button, go on, you know you want to. 😉

What do you think of it, guys?
excellent, i bet that took quite a few takes and alot of editing, good work
knee warmers though? i'm the other side of the Col du Clent from you and it's been sweltering and humid here
Rad skilz too. Like.
Knee pads. They come out every ride, no matter what sort of riding.
XC? 'fun'?, Where have I been going wrong? 😉
Nice vid though!
Knee pads for the towpath??
Nice video. Now you have to ride back up!
liked that, well done. wish my local XC loop was like that.
Quality video. Although I think you were a bit "overbiked" 🙂
That's one long trail. 😉
Cracking that.
Mleh no uphill sections.
Seriously though if you like that you would like XC racing. With the exception of the play area and the cheeky canal path it's like any XC race course.
Where is that BTW?
I like that - clearly a lie though; shot over three days and no rain ?!
That's great. Looks fun and nicely edited.
Just stick the knee pads on and leave them. 😀
Screw being overbiked. It's my DH bike aswell. 😆
I like my racing, but Gravity Enduros instead. The descents are far more fun than the uphills. This is in the West Midlands on my local trails- Kinver, Baggeridge and Fens Pools.
Liked it mate! 😀
Rad shorts dude.
nice bike skills dude 😀
Lovely 🙂
Really well put together,good camera shots/angles and excellent editing.Never lost my interest.
Riding wasn't too shabby either.
XC is still rubbish though 😉
Very good....Wouldn't take that bike (or even the camera) over fens pool though....if you hadn't been so fast it would have been nicked....I once had a traveler (think that's the pc term) with a wheel barrow offer to fight me for my bike....not sure what I'd have got if i'd have won!?
I don't like hanging around the Fens, I must admit. It's more than a bit dodgy, but it is in the heart of the [s]wonderous place[/s] shite hole, Pensnett.
Great video! Very well done indeed!
It's at 740 views already! 😯
Nice one
I liked that, definite sense of fun. Guess that was the point, so mission accomplished. Nice drifty cornering skills, too.
That's nice. Like the gap jumps, I have a bit of a mental block on those at the moment although my drops are rapidly improving.
Good effort! 😀
yep, that looked fun. Nice video
Well put together video and nice riding skillz. Looks more DH-lite than xc to me though. (Feet out in the corners and manuals all over the shop.) 😉 😈
Recognise most of those locations. I live not far from Dudley.
nice one, enjoyed that. 😀
Very nice that mate, well done & it kept me interested too!
Cheers
Really really enjoyable to watch!!! Well done.
Yep good little vid, enjoyed it.
Really good video good work
Really enjoyed that, I've been off the mountain bike for a few years (it got nicked and we had 3 kids). Just getting back to it now and watching that has made me realise how much I've missed it!!
Well done, good video.
Nice video dude,
Recently had a go myself at making a little video, similar deal, 2 afternoons of filmimg and an evening editing.
Actually found it put a fun twist on riding my local trails.
This is my effort
Top vid gov. I can't jump for all the tea in china
Thanks,
Also realised how slow and small stuff looks on home made videos, gave me an extra appreciation of the guys you see flying down stuff and going big in the proper movies. They must really be shifting!!
This has really surpassed my expectations with how well this has gone down. Thanks for the knid comments, guys.
My take on the whole DH-lite/XC thing is that if you're happy to ride it in an open face and you can fit it into an XC ride then it's XC, just a bit more wild. 😀
A fair bit of time involved in doing that, but it was worth it fella - top job.
If i'm being slightly fussy, i thought you over egged the slo-mo jumps at the end, but other than that it was quality. I'm now gonna watch it again 😀
i cant watch the video , i get so far then it just freezes like its buffering or something, on IE or firefox!?!?!?!? any ideas, always seems to do this on videos from pinkbike?!
anywhere else i can watch it like youtube or something?
Great video can't fault it at all. Great riding, lovely looking trails and excellent mixing.
Nice vid. 😀 8)
Roll on Thursday night ride!
well done chap, awesome . . .
the million lovely . . . and recognised Kinver stuff too
i assume the first minute or so is Fenspool Way?
. . we are a little spoilt, . . . right I'm out tonight . . . .
[b]Oscillate Wildly[/b]- Sorry, it's only on Pinkbike. It's got to be a problem your end somewhere. Have you tried Google Chrome, too?
My god! Over 2500 views! 😀
Watched it twice. Very good 😀
