  • POV footage riding natural mtb trails in Inverness on our van trip up north in Scotland. Fast, techy and with plenty of jumps - these trails are good!! Some of the gap jumps are massive (like reeeeally big!) but lots of smaller ones too. We hit a few different trails.
    We stopped to session some jumps which I've included in the video and also took a look at a few of the bigger ones. The trails themselves are great and you can easily ride them fast when you know them. The top sections were more dirt and roots etc but the lower section I tended to do often was pretty rocky which lots of line choice in places.

      Ebike Xplorer MTB thanks! They were running well the day I rode them. Not often trails in Scotland are dry 😂. It’s a pleasure :)

    This is where I’m from and I’ve never even ridden here. Guess what I’ll be doing next time I visit 😁. Looked like fun and plenty to chose from.

      Yeah there’s a good variety! Lots of good trails dotted around the highlands in general. Always enjoy the riding!

    Newbie me, took my newbie wife up the masts today, but she had work and couldn't risk the proper trails and proper accident, so we wimped out. Looks like lots of fun once we get our skills up though!

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ah it is quite a tough place when new to it. Some bits mellower than others but a lot of features on the way down the trails. Definitely, trails will be there waiting :)

      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I really enjoyed them :) didn’t realise they are on the down low but if you’re up in Elgin I’m sure there will be people around that know them. They were running so dry and well the day I rode them! No probs :)

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I hadn’t appreciated the private land situation as had seen a few other videos etc even from people who were local. Have kept the overall title but removed the references of where exactly to find them. If you know locals and can ride with them that’s a good way to do it 👍

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      They’re not the easiest if you don’t know the place. All secret and I found out later after I’d filmed theres a private agreement for the land with the locals so that’s why. If you know someone they may be able to show you around or give some pointers :)

      Laura Jane MTB it's all good. I've ridden up there once and cracked my helmet next to that slab. More skills to work on before I go near it again. I think there's a £10 annual fee to cover insurance and keep the landowner sweet and keep the trails in such good condition maybe once my confidence is up...
      I've seen some lads on the big gap lìne up there. Looking forward to seeing your attempts 👍

    • @elrictdb
      @elrictdb 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Wouldn't worry too much, I'm local and didn't know precisely where to go.

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ahh ok that’s a tricky one working with the landowner. Ouch! Sounds a sore crash!! There are some serious jumps there - would love to see someone doing them and try follow in on the smaller ones I had my eye on. Hopefully I’ll get back soon 😊

      Hi someone messaged me this morning to let me know about the private land so i edited the video an hour later to remove any description of where they are so that it’s just riding. If there’s anything still there let me know which part of the vid and I’ll take a look again thanks
