These guys were my idols when I was buying MBUK 20 years ago.
Great to see them still smashing it.

Yeah I just watched that, it reminds me of the main thing I miss about the UK.....the banter
Superb, got me right laffin
I'm confused. Theres s big difference between a decent film with banter and some blokes saying "****" a lot. This was the latter.
There's a sweet spot with swearing.... just enough makes an occasional point and adds to the narrative. That was just painful and made me switch off.
Was too much like being on a train between Alexandria and Balloch.
Shame really, as it looked like it might have developed into a good film
Mint 🙂

Been waiting for this. Didn't disappoint. Great riding with top bantz. The perfect day out.
Great watch. Didnt even notice the swearing. Just a good video.
Enjoyed that, it reminds me of why I still love Dirt, just a bunch of mates playing on their bikes. Nothing more, nothing less.
And the boys, with the possible exception of Warner, can still ride.
Seems like last Friday to me 🙂 that was our exact day.. Me my lad and a mate all following eachother closely and throwing ourselves down stuff... bloody excellent.
And the boys, with the possible exception of Warner, can still ride.
I'll bet he's quicker down most trails than the vast majority on here.
I’ll bet he’s quicker down most trails than the vast majority on here.
The fact he rides his bike means he’s quicker than most on here.
I meant that in comparison to the other 3, he’s clearly quicker than the plodders on here.
Ah right, well yes.... Maybe slower than them, but that's not necessarily a bad thing 🙂
Anyway.... moving on 🙂
It was still fun and just how days out should be.
Agree, it just felt like they were trying to out 'banter' each other and saying **** far too much, cringeworthy for me and too annoying.
Great fun 😀
At least we know who not to be riding buddies with on here! 😆
with the possible exception of Warner
Just pure stupidity.
Anyone seen a photo of either Warner or Peaty without a hat on?
What ever Warner is doing to his hair (dye more than likely) he needs to stop doing it
When was this filmed? Thought Warner would be on a Vitus.
I don't think I'm the target market for that video. Even with the sound off it annoyed me.

It was filmed october last year, it’s just taken them an age to edit/release it.
I thought it was ace! And if you are offended by that amount of swearing then you certainly don't want to hang around with the people that I do. I hear more than that in the first five minutes of work every morning.
And the boys, with the possible exception of Warner, can still ride.
Warner is actually still a very good rider, and he's possibly fitter now than when he was still racing Pro. He's certainly not as fat as he was anyway. All that "I hate pedalling" and "I'm crap" stuff" is mostly for a laugh.
He was the slowest of the 4 though.
'Slowest of the 4' when talking about that bunch is a bit like 'least skinniest supermodel'.
I loved it, its good to see that even the (ex) pros are just as susceptible to copious pre ride faffage and pratting about.
It looked just like a grand day out on bikes to me.
Note whioch of the 4 voices is the one you hear most over the length of the video too, you'd never guess would you!
Yeah Warner possibly swears a bit too much but he's got some #bantz for everything.
"Peaty knows that if he's not behind me giving shed loads of banter about how shit I am I'll be off"
Great vid. I love watching Steve Peat ride. So smooth and powerful. They were all good to watch. I’m swooning a little and I’m left longing to ride my bike
It wasn’t the ****s that got to me, it was the schralps. Though I do agree that they look more like an accident than a skill.
Any reason, other than the obvious, why Warner’s voice is the loudest? It would have been good to hear the others talk.

That was purely for their own amusement as i expect one of them had being giving Warner some stick for it. It was just like Fridays visit to BPW for me...
Virtue signalling snowflakes tuning in just to be offended, it's Warner mucking about with his old mates, what did you expect, why click on it then keep watching, if you ever meet Rob, brace your delicate disposition for F bombs. I barely noticed Rob's swearing, just thought it was a good laugh, but I live in the real world where there's plenty more swearing and plenty more things to get upset about.
Pretty sure most/all the swearing came from Warner though, don't tar them all with the same brush.
Top vid, sums up what group rides are all about (or should be about anyway)
Yeah I thought it was a great watch. Just real funny. I barely noticed the swearing as working on site and riding with a big bunch it’s a lot like that all the time. In my eyes They are only words but it’s the intention behind the word that should cause offence. We’re all different though right?!
seems some of us are 🙂
The rest of us, like you, are normal blokes 😉
Did nothing for me.
"Ooh I love a good swear, I'm a proper bloke"
Rob Warner looks like Paul Whitehouse's "Brilliant" character...
Loved it! I don't like comedians swearing for the sake of swearing but the swearing in this vid didn't bother me at all?! I know, I'm weird.
Just seemed like a ralaxed bunch enjoying them selfs.
I hope I have that much fun when I am old 🙂
Enjoyed it. Standard level of swearing for a few mates having fun.
I've usually got a lot of time for Warner, but he did grate a bit in that.
Still a decent watch though.
Never got as far as the riding. Couldn't get past the enforced 'bantz' and 'laddish-ness' at the start.
Seems I have now officially turned into my dad.
Toodles off to get a cup of Horlicks and watch some Sun Life ads....
Enjoyed that... Took me back to my halcyon MTB days in the 2000s. Those guys really were (are) legends. (Another legend from the same era is Martyn Ashton, a truly inspirational individual.)
Another legend from the same era is Martyn Ashton, a truly inspirational individual
And genuinely the wittiest MTB "personality".
Just 'cos those "legends" were the best UK riders of their generation, doesn't mean their banter will be at any higher level than our riding groups.
We've all had running gags like their thing about "shralping", I'm sure.
