[@streetpigeonmtb]

Lewis! That was insane. My heart was in my mouth and you were so calm! No wonder you won there. That is one of tue most committed pieces of riding I've seen on TH-cam this year 🙌

[@LewisBuchanan]

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks

[@leetori1]

Must have watched this 20 times. Never gets old..

[@SevenStanesMBT]

I hate that trail with a passion. Watching you smash it on a single crown.....otherworldly. Amazing man.

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks

[@m2ad18]

Filthiest part of the track you apologise for not talking, that cracked me up. Awesome man

[@LewisBuchanan]

Haha thanks 😂😂

[@flashman2008]

That track is gnarly. I'm not sure what would break first: me; or my hardtail bike 🤣

[@LewisBuchanan]

Certainly one of the gnarliest

[@garethwoods1562]

I done the red track at Glencoe 2 year ago and couldn't even attempt the black. My man what an absolute beast of a run you put down on that enduro rig. Serious skill and big ole set of goolies on you boy!

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks haha!

[@gazharwood7258]

Did this track several weeks ago .....and it's fooking insane!! Gnarly does not begin to say how gnarly it is 🤣🤣 it is so steep too!!
This is an unbelievable run!!! 👊👊👊👊👊

[@warwickhunt]

Full focus for this one, absolutely flying!
One of those tracks that I'm just happy to get down, love the challenge of it but damn she's a wild one

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks

[@stewfrance9601]

Fair play Lewis, absolutely hauling but made it look so easy and chilled!!

Epic run lad!!!

[@2WheeledMohawk]

I think I just flatted just watching this. Damn dude #Rapid!

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks

[@dimimtb]

I'm guessing I'd be a wee bit slower on my Optic and it's all just the bike right LOL. Amazing run and it's cool listening to you talk to yourself as you race. You were flying down some gnarly stuff there.

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks

[@Flex-Jitsu]

Wow! That trail looks super fun and rowdy! Nice riding!

[@LewisBuchanan]

Such a hard track 🙌 Norco slayed it! 😁

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks! Good luck tomorrow

[@redbullerado]

Can you make a review of the sight vs the range?

[@garyallertonga]

Starship Enterprise would struggle to hold onto your back wheel at that pace ! 👌

[@LewisBuchanan]

Haha

[@BrotherMoses72]

Fleeing kid! 🚵🏻💨

[@LewisBuchanan]

Cheers

[@TheHikerBikerzScotland]

Wow, do you do coaching or recommend anyone? I though the track started at top section, got 4 and a half minutes on my first ever day second lap, i'm a newbie and not skilled at all. 4 runs in a day is good experience but can feel it!

[@stianjarnass]

Is this chin mount? Incredible skillz 👏

[@prosnazzy]

Just WOW 🥵🥵🥵

[@MyBetsie]

2.36 from the road drop in is really fast for an Enduro bike. 2.12 was the fastest run a at British champs 2 years ago from where the SDA started the other week. The track is so blown out now though.

[@LewisBuchanan]

I figured! Felt so sketchy between all the features

[@f3nic86]

wtf u are insane Lew killed it

[@LewisBuchanan]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Dirtymisfitsmtb]

Go the norco!!🤘😜🤘

Wow! So fast!

[@LewisBuchanan]

Cheers 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@MudslingerSCO]

i'm sure that bike was on rails coming down that !!!

[@LewisBuchanan]

💪🏼💪🏼

[@sammilburn445]

wow, you really should race the ews or start riding dh again and try get into the downhill world cup! to go that fast on an enduro bike is mental

[@LewisBuchanan]

Thanks

[@adrianq4753]

Enduro bike taking a beating 🔥😂

[@LewisBuchanan]

Oh yup haha

[@3skycycles402]

Niiiice! 0:59 if it possible to cut this turn? Maybe few seconds faster 😎 💪

[@LewisBuchanan]

Ya 👌🏽

[@marilakay4902]

What place are you in, in the EWS.

[@LewisBuchanan]

I don’t have a position! Not raced any this year yet

[@haydntevans]

I think my arms would explode if I were to ride that track.

[@LewisBuchanan]

😂

[@Shedtune_Russ]

proper mental! but also super sick riding 🔥🔥🔥

[@frederickmerle6412]

Glencoe is truly horrendous especially on an Enduro bike. How amazing are modern Enduro bikes when you can ride this kind of course at that speed? Awesome. What rear tyre you on to cope with that?

[@LewisBuchanan]

Amazing for sure. I was using maxxis assegsi dh casing 2.5 front and rear 👌🏽 with Cush core pro set inside

[@giovannicorbin3526]

Good!!!!🤘👌

[@danielmilling8992]

Please tell me you actually used Strava

[@maximosmorgan9727]

Pinned! Hey Lewis, did you get a 2:58 on the Glencoe Red?! That's what I came up with watching the feed.

[@LewisBuchanan]

Hey! I got a 3:02 in the race. But i think I went faster in my video. I’m unsure honestly!

[@danh925]

Was something chasing you?

Sheesh.

[@LewisBuchanan]

🙏🏼

[@dugmtb9226]

You'll be excused for not talking Lew 🤣

[@LewisBuchanan]

Haha appreciated

[@billybirks1403]

Is this the kom on Strava or the all time fastest?

[@LewisBuchanan]

Bit of both. The track has changed over the years. So I just took the fastest time from Strava and where the black officially starts and roughly finishes! Strava is pretty inaccurate anyway at times tbh

[@strangehighways3]

You could definitely get that under 2 minutes

[@LewisBuchanan]

If I pushed hard I maybe could

[@mrpercussive]

The Range gave no shits about those rocks!

[@LewisBuchanan]

Right?💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@mrpercussive]

@@LewisBuchanan making me consider giving up my Sight 😂

[@LewisBuchanan]

Sights a rad lil bike but this range is a game changer on the rougher stuff

[@EnglertRacing96]

Fast as he'll. But the steepness and the capture of a kom with a single crown seems to indicate this may not be real Downhill

[@LewisBuchanan]

Haha

[@benanderson4639]

I hate it when I'm looking at strava segments thinking maybe I get a trophy or KOM and then I see this guy has it by 20 seconds 🥴

[@LewisBuchanan]

😂

[@marcelbakker5104]

That is a nasty piece of track
