Ideal! It’s great having so many riding spots on the doorstep isn’t it. That hillside is perfect so I’m not surprised there are lots of good secret trails there 😁
Thanks! Hehe I was going straight for that tree. I’m known for delayed reactions so it was a VERY last minute swerve 😂. You’re welcome, it’s a pleasure 👍
We are lucky here to have access to so many natural trails. Where in Germany are you? I did some riding there around Koblenz and Freiburg which was great 😊
Great stuff ... Trails look in fantastic condition. .. I viewed your vid on oval chain rings .... Then went out and brought one .... Let you know how how I get on ...
Thanks! It comes with practice (I’ve learned the hard way a few times!) you’ll need both to slow down and control the speed on the steep stuff. The front is the one that does most of the work to slow down. It’s best to try and modulate/feather both brakes so that you don’t feel you need to grab them at any point and can keep a consistent speed :)
I’m lucky enough to live in the tweed valley, can see glenbenna and plora from the window. Lots of hidden gems at Glenbenna!

Some nice riding there guys although I really thought Laura was target fixating with that tree at 11.44 Thanks for filming, Andy

Brilliant footage, both riding so well 👍
Thanks! 🙏 was great having dry trails again!
A load of trails I haven't ridden. Great to see them. My god we have some gnarly local trails eh?!
Oh wow! Yeah we do! The glenbenna side is a bit less ridden as it’s out the way a little but it’s good! Always in search of gnar 😆
Great trails and riding 👌🏻 I’m getting the train up from London as soon as it’s permitted to travel 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🏴🏴🏴
Thanks! That’ll be a long journey but so worth it!! The trails are waiting 👌
My sunday fix delivered, thanks guys. Great VLOG as usual. Time for a cold one🤙👊
It’s a pleasure! Cheers! Definitely, beer cracked open here too 👍
Tweed Valley is definitely in my bucket list to explore, Good ride Laura & Tam.
Great! It’s worth it, every hill has loads of super trails :) thanks!
Awesome vid as always top riding. Keep the vids coming guys 👍👍🏴🏴
Thanks! It was a really fun ride this one. Got plenty more vids on the way 😃
I adore you. 👌You are amazing👌. That stone passage was Best.🤙🤙
Thank you! 🙏 it’s scary there on that section but really good!
Great stuff ... Trails look in fantastic condition. .. I viewed your vid on oval chain rings .... Then went out and brought one .... Let you know how how I get on ...
Thanks! Yeah it’s nice they’ve dried out a bit and running a bit faster! Oh great, definitely do. I couldn’t go back now after trying oval. 👍
Great vid....can I ask being a newbie to MTB I haven't rode alot of steep stuff.....do you favour back brake over front or is it both brakes
Thanks

I like A Salmons journey it's fun in the wet , just needs that nasty wheel swallowing hole filled near the bottom.
Same! It’s a good laugh in the wet! Oh yeah that one properly caught us both out 😅
