Yorkshire MTB - Wharncliffe 'The Calm Before The Storms'

This was filmed a few weeks ago when the leaves had dropped, the autumns colours were stunning and the trails were dry if anyone can remember them 😂 What would we give to be riding in them conditions now 🤔. So I was riding on my own and it was one of them days I don't get too often were I was not feeling it.
Been off the bike for a few weeks now due to a frickin bad cold and now ear infection and with these recent storms and high winds weekend after weekend, if I could ride in them conditions tomorrow it certainly would not be a mweh kind of day
Gutted about the felling that has been done and was such a shocker when I got to the area, must have been 8 great trails lost. I haven't known them fell any trees in Wharncliffe before so not sure why they have done this 😞

A slightly frosty Dunkeld which made for slippy rocks but the pine needle covered sections were pretty grippy Been here a couple of times before with others navigating so lessons learned should have paid more attention as it took a couple of attempts and advice from a local to get to the top (although I had Trailforks going) where the downhill tracks begin although we were doing Cairn to Cottag...

From the slippiest ride on the last edit to the most dangerous ride I reckon I've done due to the remoteness, depth of snow making it slow going and temperatures way below zero with the windchill. It was difficult to keep your body temperature up and did get a bit touch and go traversing across to the summit of Heartbreak Ridge not knowing it well having only done it once before with snow on th...

One of the slippiest rides I've been on landing on my arse 4 times most of which was pushing the bike. Treads on the tyres and in the shoes completely filled with claggy mud but nevertheless this was fun and got a few laughs Out with Iain on a Tasty Tech ride so surprisingly there were some very technical descents on this and with the added mud and water it was erm.... challenging 😂 Some of the...

Scotland MTB - Glendevon 'Deviate Demo'

An impromptu trip to Scotland to use up some holidays from work so decided to have a go on a Deviate Claymore. Having ridden if you like traditional mountain bikes over many years thought I would try one of these on trend high pivot bikes and it did not disappoint They directed us to their local trails and by the time we got sorted with the bike and travelled the relatively short distance it wa...

Out with the Tasty Tech crew on a tour of the Calderdale Valley Crazy large group ride with 21 people joining this although not everybody lasted until the end for one reason or another You can't really go wrong for technical trails at Hebden if you know where to look and is a great venue with cafes, bars, restaurants and places to hang out Needless to say we were taken up the buttress, look it ...

Not done some of these trails in years so decided to go for a nostalgic ride around Coniston Although the ground was quite wet in places due mainly to the time of year, I had the intention to go quite high around the Coniston fells in the hope that the rock would be dry prior to the rain moving in later in the afternoon. Unfortunately the rain arrived early just about when I was starting the ro...

After many times of going off Skiddaw down the scree which without much thought is tradition, decided it was time to give the switchbacks another go which I haven't done in 6 or 7 years. Must admit to have struggled down them where Mark rode them like a scalded cat. This only inspires me to return and do better next time so watch this space 🤣 Due to the overnight rain and mild but not warm temp...

Peaks MTB - Edale 'Chunder Storm'

มุมมอง 1K2 หลายเดือนก่อน

Another Tasty Tech full on excursion around the Edale Valley which did not disappoint (no surprise there then). After the initial climb, off the top of Mam Tor and down into the valley a couple of big climbs ensued, one planned and one impromptu. This was not everybody's cup of tea but for me carrying the bikes makes not a lot of difference Mark G had a pretty big crash on Grindslow which I did...

Todays forecast was not great with quite a lot of rain wherever so thought no better loop to be doing than Borrowdale Bash which ordinarily would be just fine if wet and cold although a bit short if not After doing Walla Crag and down to Watendlath in dry conditions I had a decision to make, the cloud was low so the lets say normal Dale Head extension was not very appealing With thinking cap on...

Some different trails around the Kentmere Valley instead of doing the same old Nan Bield which is an excellent descent. Fancied something different today so turned off my normal route to Thornthwaite Beacon and then down the wrong side of Nan Bield which is always an interesting challenge. Back over Harter and then onwards to Kentmere Pike Conditions were not too bad for the time of year but th...

A monster edit for an epic day. Not everybody's cup of tea and I get that but for an iconic ride out for 7 1/2hrs this a seems reasonable length I know the lakes quite well as you will have gathered from previous edits but around the Scafell Pike area I've always avoided due to 'don't bother', 'you can't ride any of it' type comments from others and a recent Instagram clip and Strava posting in...

I travelled as far south as I could to avoid the rain that was tracking across the north through Sunday. Telford forecast was a dry day and with the baking hot sunshine the day prior I thought the trails would be in mint condition and had t not started raining when I arrived they probably would have been Was a bit frustrating because this is not really the place to be in the rain and the trails...

I've not visited the lakes for a month to go biking which is a long time for me and then prior to that was the end of June. I'm pretty fortunate in that the lakes is in distance for a day trip so can go almost at the drop of a hat I was (as usual) unsure what to do today with a poor UK afternoon weather forecast so decided to do some low level stuff around Ambleside which worked well in that th...
