- Vlog riding new natural enduro mtb trails at AE Forest (south Scotland) that were mostly built post felling. POV from different trails throughout the vid. There's so much more to AE than the trail centre red and downhill tracks. Graded on Trailforks as black trails these are typical natural trails that in this case require the ability to ride moderate steeps, loam, loose berms and at times slidey roots... mtb trails that have everything to throw at you! There's nothing mad but they are techy especially if it's wet!
It's been good getting back on the full sus enduro bike again after it being out of action for a couple of weeks. Suspension feels so plush now and this was an ideal place to ride it! Located near Dumfries in Southern Scotland, there are other trail centre spots nearby too - Kirroughtree and Mabie, being two to mention. Mabie has some natural trails too although we've yet to go!
Post (or pre) ride there is a brilliant cafe. Who doesn't love a mountain bike destination with an awesome coffee shop for coffee and cake... or cheeseburgers!! Prices are amazing and it's super friendly. Ideal place for a roadtrip with everything in one place.
Hope you enjoy the vlog and it gives you an idea of the natural mountain bike trails at AE Forest.
Bikes: Saracen Ariel LT and Nukeproof Mega 275
Cameras: Go Pro Hero 8 and 9 black

Awesome place is AE
It really is!
Awesome content 😃👍
Thanks! 👊
Have you guys done any of the others In the area mabie delabetie Kirrougtree some good ridding . Appreciate your response 👍
We have done Mabie and Dalbeattie but prefer the mix of natural trails at Ae so haven’t ventured back. That said, would be good on the trail bike though!
Ae is my local..brilliant place to ride. Ram rod and turn down for what are also great trails for next time your there. Julia will keep you right 👍🏻
Great local! Always enjoy riding here! I’ve done turn down for what loads - it’s so good!! Not familiar with the other one tho! Or I’ve been down it with Julia and not known the name hehe. Yeah hopefully be there again soon!
Love watching folks ride my local.
Thats the bottom half of scrambled eggs you did at the end. Crackin section.
Hope to catch you guys there sometime. Theres a lot off nice sections that we could show you. Hit me up if your coming back down.
Love your stuff. Ride Safe guys. 🤙🏴
Cheers! Ae is super. Great local to have! Ah that makes sense then since it was just after the main scrambled eggs :) it was fun! Thanks :) We’ve ridden quite a bit of other stuff too as have a couple of friends there who are locals too - you’ve probably come across them or know them! Hoping to get back down again but the way the weekend plans are going may be longer than we’d like! Too many places too little time hehe the usual dilemma!!
@@LauraJaneWeeTamMTB l can relate to that.
I know you’ve ridden with Julia down here.
Keep up the great work.
Ah yep! Julia and Tommy. Sure thanks and you!
Excellent vid
Cheers!
You very brave or very mad…keep safe.
Great video as usual...Is this part of the Adrenaline uplift trails?
Thanks! I think they’ve started running an uplift recently but no idea where to - in the past the old uplift company went to the top of the dh track so some of these won’t be accessible but some you could pedal along to I reckon
Hi guys, could you name the trails that you rode there? thx in advance
Hi yeah sure! They are:
TTTT
Rainbow Road
Frazer's Trail
Quarry Trail (Top, Middle, Lower)
Scrambled Eggs
brilliant...whats the trail called at 6.55 in please? missed that when i went
thanks! That one is Quarry Trail - really good!
