This thread made me think if I have gone mental and shouted out. The only incident I can remember is the first time I straight lined the steep 'paved' bit of jacobs ladder instead of going down the s shaped switch back. Some of you must have to had outbursts at some point.

To the haters. Have a nice day.

Is it me, or does anyone else think that he doesn't [i]really[/i] mean that?

And there lies the problem. Not one **** was given.

I have a 14 year old daughter. She's at that age where she is self conscious.

Always worried about what people think about her. Not too dissimilar to members on this forum I guess.

Go out. Scream cry and grunt. But for gods sake don't be a hating whining ****... 😀

That looks like a fun little bit of trail 🙂

Can we just do a quick straw poll..?
For anyone that has passed judgement, positive or negative, regarding the OPs commentary in the vid..

Are you vocal when you are making sweet, sweet passionate love..?

I myself am a silent lover and also a silent rider.. Is there any correlation to be found here..?

I'm silent (with an intense stare) until the moment of completion, at which point I'm afflicted with uncontrollable laughter.

I'm exactly the same on a gnarly descent

If it's 'Gnarly' I'm guessing she probably doesn't like it either.

Just wondering how you cleaned prospetic skin after the duration of events. Gt-85 is leaving an unpleasant odour.

My wife is really forgiving. She never speaks and she always has that fresh out of the box smell.

She's very quiet. Almost inaudible except for the higher frequencies. Apparently its due to the pressurization of air or something.

Dbw - back to your trail centre hebden bridgeness

I will Pook 😉

FWIW, I went through a stage of humming the A-Team theme tune out loud whilst riding fun bits. Makes you 10x faster.

Sorry, are we back to riding riding now or still answering Yunki's question?

For me, when bike riding, i like to imagine Blur's Song 2 coming on just as I start onto any fast bit. The big problem is that i'm so shit at riding fast bits, that by the time the 'WOOHOO!' comes in I'm usually lying in a bush and swearing, which spoils the effect.

I find myself singing 'Horsey horsey don't you stop...' etc to myself on long grinding MTB climbs. The joys of parenthood - nursery rhymes etched into your brain.

Weirdly that's my answer to Yunki's loving noise question too.

@forex - you are to be commended for getting out and riding it was a bad choice of route for the conditions though. You did provide maximum amusement with your video commentary. However, you should be aware that riding around the more difficult features and creating more damage to the area isn't going to win you any friends here. My riding isn't up to much but then I am not videoing myself and posting it up on the internet, if you do that you are going to attract comments, good and bad.

No it wasn't. Muddy and wet is when it's most fun. Fair play to the video poster riding in that and he does ride some things pretty well - although he definitely needs a bit of coaching as do I (out of practice) - some better brakes, some Magic Marys/HR'2s instead of those crappy trail tyres that I think he had and taller bars might help as well. Were you using organic pads mate?

His commentary is unintentionally ****ing hilarious though as were some of his replies replies on here, if he had any sense he would capitalise on this and become the "Idiot Abroad" of the MTB world.

This man has the makings of a classic troll/mtb comedian.

Have a good Christmas.

Have a look at a ride with any of Cavedale / Beast (Hope Cross/Hagg Farm) / Jacobs Ladder descents. If nothing else you may redefine "gnarly", its good to move the benchmark from time to time.

Oh yeah. Before I depart I would just like to point out the the new gopro hero 4 has twice the dynamic range for the microphone.

I really don't think the audio engineers at gopro got electrical engineering degrees to to have their videos pick on the subtle differences in wind noise as you go darn a gnarly gnarly ganarly track.

Apparently its got twice the dynamic range. So you can kiss my hairy ballsack.

I hear they are recruiting for i'm a celebrity get me out of here. Some posters on here would be advised to go to screening. The only requirement being you enjoy stuffing animal testicles into your mouth.

Thanks for the support be it positive or negative. Now go out and ride.

Does that mean Cavedale etc IS gnarly? I wasn't sure which way you meant it?

@poison - I would say its more technicaly sustained descent than Cut Gate.

Thanks Jambalaya, I am familiar with them, I just wanted to know if they are generally considered 'gnarly'

WARNING: MAJOR WILLY WAIVING COMING UP!!

In fact I got a Strava top 8 and top 6 for the top and bottom bits of the Jacobs decent the last time I rode it.

PUTS WILLY AWAY.

😉

@Hora

Well it can put an end to a willy-off one way or the other.

Although going on about how you smashed a Strava segment is a bit naff to be honest.

And, no the irony is definitely not lost on me 🙂

If helps you need at least four specific Strava bikes to cover the basic segment types.

It's defo a case of quantity over quality.

There's a rather disturbing diversion about sex noises in the middle somewhere. 😯

9/10 thread would read again.

@forexpipz can we have the link to the other videos?

Gnarly Gnarly video is definitely up there in my all time top youtube watches in 2014. "time to shrrrrrrrrrrrrrred" and "booya, booya baby" i'm going to use those on my next outing! 🙂

I couldn't care less what route you took, looked a fun ride, pure escapism!

Much rather watch this, than a silent video with the same riding.

Is that because most people aren't stupid enough to post Strava times on footpaths?

I can't find Parkin Clough on Strava!

Parkin Top is, but that's a bridleway.

I do know the trail afterall. Much respect if you've cleaned all that top to bottom.

The tree route section is defo gnarly gnarly.

Ever since watching the video in the OP a couple of days ago I've been walking round describing everything as 'Gnarly, gnarly, gnaaaaaarrllllyyy' 😆

Although I'm dreading my video footage from Revo on Saturday now I've got that phrase in my head. Usually I just hear the occasional curse or 'Oof' when I watch it back.

I'm, like, turtley amped on this thread !

@yunki, riding a gnarly, gnarly trail is in many ways very much like making love to a beautiful woman. (with increasing volume) "****, ****, ****, ****, fu**ity-fuuuuu**" ...then, softly... "oooh yeah, booyah baby" in all cases for me

(edit, soz mods but it was verbatim what I really say, honest - none of that tax filter evasion)
