Quite liked it.
Did you have a timer on your phone or did you just have to set it and then wang it up the hill and edit out shed loads later?

Lots of running up and down frantically trying to get back to bike and ride a section then leg it back to phone. Masses of cropping wasted footage of me running around / slipping over. Most annoyingly, the phones memory was nearly full and some vids didn't get saved. Had to keep deleting other stuff every time, then I left my glasses at the bottom of a 20 min climb 🙁 Was going to put music over it untill I heard all the little birdys singing for me. Never again though!

hexhamstu, do you mean "wobble around them, feet up on my rigid ss 29er" properly. It would have been very boring and slow to watch withought the foot plant unless you like comedy offs that is 😀

You need a better back tyre!

Loved the log jump where you landed and the picture shook when you landed!

Very good

I like how in parts its almost silent, then you get a blast of the bike/hub then silence again.

Neat riding too, can we have more please.

I think it's a great video, I love the bit where you go sideways round the corner.

And the bow to your public!

I thought it was going to be one of your special vids. 😥

then I left my glasses at the bottom of a 20 min climb

You wouldn't want to do that with some real ones would you. 😉

This video does not do justice to how steepgnarlyinstsntdeathslippyvirtuallyunrideable those trails actually are. What it does do is portray the swede for what he is. An uber raddist, handsome super skilled trail god.
Best regards, your Chinese apprentice x

Liked that 😀

Is it just me or did the quality look better than many of the 'action cams' ?

Yeah, Phil and Billy do a good job building these trails. I do get out with Phil sometimes, but I'm not at the standard the Wednesday night boys are at.

Nice video, looks like a fun place to ride wherever that is! I'm glad you didn't carry that song on otherwise it would've been stuck in my head all day (and probably still will be from hearing that little bit).

I have a question, how did you find places to balance your phone, or do you have some kind of tripod-case-device?

Riding a Intense Tracer. I used three pieces of wire covered in rubber tube but left an inch of wire exposed on each end. Then wrapped them around the phone. Worked really well as tripod but also could stick the exposed ends into tree bark or wrap them around branches.

The wooden jumps bit is one trail and the rest is all one descent. Thanks G and it's not the M50. It's miles away from there. It's miles away from any where 😉

Will I show you these secret 😉 trails? Yes
Will I teach you how to ride them? Yes
Will you ever be able to ride like me? Possibly by removing an arm, an eye and drinking meths pre ride.

Do you think I'm going to tell strangers on a forum about cheeky trails that locals have painstakingly built over years to have them wrecked and eventually over run, destroyed and closed by forestry commissions. Because that's what happens. I've promised the trail builders that I wont breathe a word of the location and that's the end of it. Please leave it alone. Go explore. That's how it's done.
