Mini Bike Carnage at WINDHILL Bikepark
The ultimate mini bike challenge at Windhill Bike Park! With Mitchell Cycles and Leisure Lakes Bikes wanting the perfect kids' bike demo 🎄, we grabbed some minibikes 🚲 and pushed them to their absolute limits.
We kicked things off on Bluetopia, Windhill's incredible blue flow trail 🌟-packed with berms, rollers, and tabletops. Bluetopia is the perfect mix of fun and flow for riders of all levels 🙌, making it the ideal testing ground for our mini bike madness. Can these little rigs survive big jumps and tech sections, or are we destined for crashes and chaos? 😂
Windhill Bike Park, famous for its epic trails and freeride playground 🏞️, provided the ultimate proving ground for our mini bike challenge. From flow lines to gnarly downhill runs, we tested everything we could-sometimes sketchily, often hilariously! 🤪
Drop a comment 💬 and let us know what you think-did the mini bikes survive? Should we take this madness even further? 👀 Don’t forget to like ❤️ and subscribe 🔔 for more MTB laughs and challenges! 🚵♀️🚵♂️

Will hoodie swaps, phone measurements, and pure confidence be enough to clear it? While this dr...

Happy Anniversary Fran 😂 loved this awesome episode!
Thanks! Love your username by the way!!
Let's goooooooo
Does anybody have any tips for getting through the turns on the flow line? 😅
Looks like the Tech line is a good place to practice drops.
Definitely a good place to get your drop technique dialled!
Have you ridden it yet? Let us know what you think!
🔥🔥
Nice Pit Vipers! & great/funny video.
Woodys is an amazing place !!
That size step down doesn’t match that music… my five-year-old would take that drop 😂
Your 5 year old would really hit one of the largest drops in the world’s most well known bike park? We saw some rippers out there, but not any 5 year olds. Maybe you need to see some of these features in person before commenting on them.
That looks insane
It's the biggest drop I've ever done ~ Fran
@ it’s bloody massive 🤟🏼
Whistler is on my bucket list!
Get it booked!
Chatel bike park looks incredible
Love it
What's your favourite trail in Whistler?
Brunel way pump track is literally 200m from curbside..
Thanks. We'll have to check it out!
Black tech for days lol
Dai Hard is one of my favourite trails!
@@FranAndJamesMTB never done it, thought it might be a bit out my limits lol
Fran you crack me up every upload-thank you
😂 Gald you enjoyed it ~Fran
You guys are hilarious 😂 these videos always make me laugh. Have you actually knocked Fran off her bike yet or come close? I would love to visit Whistler bike park. Are there going to be any more videos from the trip? Would be great to see your favourite trails in Whistler. Please tell me you filmed the helibiking trip I saw on your instagrams, that looked sick!
I’ve not knocked Fran off yet… but she’s getting faster so getting past is more difficult than it used to be. We’ve got so much footage from the summer. Make sure you’re SUBSCRIBED as it’s all going up in the next few months! ~ James
@@FranAndJamesMTB I can’t wait!
super smooth landing!
Thanks 👊🏻
Great videos as always! I can't wait to see the next one
More to come!
iconic
Thanks 😅
Oi Oi... lad science for life 💜 Brendog got robbed!
For life 🙌 He certainly did, so gutted for the 3 of them, that line was insane and completely unique from any of the other lines that we saw yesterday! It had everything the judges say they were looking for. That score was an absolute joke! It will be such a shame if they don’t go back next year. Their build vlogs on the lead up to the event give such a good insight into the event and the hard work that goes into it. Going to miss tuning in next year
they were the only Vlogs I followed in the lead up. Bren, Ollie, and Deaks created the only true Freeride line, without teaming up man power and resources. 76 was an absolutely disgraceful score. I'm heartened reading comments across platforms today, the people know and they are pissed. Thanks for the reply and keep up the content. ☮️💜⛰️🚲 @@FranAndJamesMTB
gnarly!!
Thanks 👊🏻
Fran you were so in the right. Dude should have given you way more notice!
Fran here- It’s all just playful banter between the two of us. James was super focused on the feature he was trying and made a split second decision to drop and I didn’t have my phone out. He hit it several times so I got the shot when I had more than 3 seconds to prepare 😂🙌
France 😂
I'm happy at least one person enjoyed that joke 😂
lol
you guys are hilarious. Great format for an entertaining video. Nice one - if I may chime in on your troubles with jank @17:15 loose hands translate to loose body and then you'll just glide through the rough stuff with flow and finesse! 💪🏻 wiggle your fingers stay loose. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it! I definitely need more practice on the jank... I'll be working on it over winter! ~ Fran
@@FranAndJamesMTB yeah have fun with it! Look forward to more videos from you both. I'll be heading to Cwmbran as soon as I can to test those trails out for myself. Never been. Did you see the video of Laurie Greenland and Brook Mcdonald riding the DH trail there.... it's insane! th-cam.com/video/2YByDa82boU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fy01z_EnW_fyCLsy
😂❤
That face plant was hilarious! I hope you’re OK 🤞🏻
I thought it was hilarious until I realised I'd hurt my ankle so badly 🥲 - Fran 👊🏻
@@FranAndJamesMTB oh no! Get well soon 👊🏻
Were you at the weekender... What was your favourite event?
Watup
Not on orange anymore? :( Nice to see James is officially part of the channel now though.
I reached the end of my contract with Orange and I'm lining up something new for next year!
Bernex bikepark looks sick! Is that the one near Morzine?
Yeah it's just under an hour's drive
Practice makes perfect.
6… but they’re all good 👍🏻
Thanks 👊🏻
Wait... did you guys film that at Disneyland!?
@@user-qm6wp7pp3b 🤣 Well spotted!!
So stoked to see you’re posting again! When can we expect some longer videos/vlogs?
@@user-qm6wp7pp3b Thank you! We are planning to start long form content again in the coming weeks
Sick landing mate

Omg are you ok?

The hippedy-hops were the best part. Raygun is a legend!
I broke my collar bone yesterday & so I'm now looking into finding surgeon. As you just had issues resolved I don't suppose you can recommend one?
So sorry to hear this! Hope you are back on the bike soon. The surgeon that operated on me on both occasions is Southampton based he works out of the NHS Southampton university hospital and also private through Nuffield. I had a grade 5 ACJ separation so the collarbone detached from the shoulder completely and you wouldn’t know it now I am back to full range of motion. He took into consideration the sport that I do and made sure it was in my notes to have the metalwork removed to avoid further injury in the future. I also had a fantastic physiotherapist. Physio fitness in Dorset, I highly recommend Tom and the team there. Wishing you all the best for your recovery!
@@FranAndJamesMTB Southampton is just down the road from me. I don't suppose you know the surgeon's name do you as I'd like someone who takes our sport into consideration?
@@45graham45 Yes for sure! His name was George Cox I believe he specialises in shoulders so definitely recommend if you’re local to Southampton
On Escort I also got to that drop at 9:16.I had to stop to look too. I took the left line but failed and had to jump off the bike as the fall line took me towards the tree. Tricky for sure.
Escort definitely has some features that sneak up on you! I think we might need to try and ride more tech over the winter.
That was really good. I’m over from Australia and heading to BPW tonight to ride tomorrow. I’m low on confidence after a stack earlier this year so I’m looking for some friendly locals to help with progression. Thanks for posting.
@@kingdaniel69 Thank you for your comment we’re stoked you enjoyed the video. I hope you have a good trip to the bike park tomorrow, there are so many fun progressive trails there. Although I can’t guarantee the weather will be as good as Australia 😅 Let us know how your visit goes!
@@FranAndJamesMTB Had a great time although my mate is a little less experienced and confident so that kept us to easier reds. Really wanted to do A470 but didn’t want to leave my mate alone.
I can't wait to see what the Red Bull Rampage riders get up to at the 2024 Rampage!
A Gold Medal Winner For Sure 🥇😎😍😍
That’s one snappy looking frame
Careful it doesn't snap on you. Not like you'll get a replacement since Orange's support is absolute 💩
