This looks like it’ll be a good ‘un. Shires is a bike film encompassing UK riders, locations, landscapes and the sh*t* weather.

Ohh that does look tasty. Would it be too much to hope for that it actually says where everything is? I always get frustrated when i see great UK riding locations but then cant recognise or it work out.

looks nice and polished, but fails to get me as excited as say this:

as in here: https://singletrackmag.com/forum/topic/ten-days-in-scotland-take-me-back/

the latter reminds me of the enjoyment of biking, the above looks like a very well shot vidoe of people riding bikes in various locations. it lacks something.

maybe the full vid will be better.

I struggle with Warner's narration, 10/10 for enthsiasm, but doesn't really fit the film for me.

Great cinema, does nice food as well.

Film looks lovely, and much as I love Warner, not sure his style of commentary suits it.

Must say I like the sentiment though. much as this country does my head in sometimes there's a reason I'm still here and when it's on form there are still very few places I'd rather be.

The multiple scenes of riders destroying natural trails by 'schralping' and sliding round the bends are probably not doing our case for open land access any favours. Bit tone deaf this,  keep that crap in the bike parks!

^ sadly, that was my first thought. Stop riding like that on natural trails.
