    Wall ride🤣. As an aside - I was up The Nevis Range on Friday, opening day. They've made massive changes to the top of Blue Doon, presumably in response to feedback from last year. Worth another trip for another review. And, you can now cross from Blue Moon at post 16, and access the World Champs XC!

      Ah, that's great buddy. Thanks for the info. I'll try and get there one Friday I think.
      What do you make of the changes to Blue Doon?

    What?? An ACTUAL wall ride? 😲😆 amazing... would've loved to see someone ride it though!
    Great video, looks amazing over there 🤩
    Btw are you sure you're recording your videos in Scotland, what with the sunny weather all the time... 🤔😄

      Ha ha. I know! The truth is out. Scotland has (occasional) good weather! That 'wall ride' is bonkers. Thanks buddy!

    Great vlog Jamie.
    Weather looked great and the trails were challenging.
    I hope Andrew is ok, it just goes to show that anyone can be caught out.
    I wonder if he's going to auction off the wheel?
    Cheers bud!

      Cheers man. I went for food with him after and he was good. He's a tough lad. But yeah, shows you how challenging and dangerous MTB can be at times. Those trails are very tricky 🙈 Cheers bud 👍

    Awesome stuff man. I pretty got that same feeling as you did being on your limit when I did Nae Speens at the Golfie the other day ! Thornielee looks proper crazy in anything less than perfect conditions. That was pretty unlucky for Andrew as well. Make more videos like this bud. 👍👍

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  ปีที่แล้ว

      The climb is very straightforward aside from the last 200m or so. You can cycle but pushing the bike is easier 👍Cheers mate 😁

    My word, that wheel was well taco'd. Some ballsy riding there, a smidge above my comfort zone, but you have to try it to find that limit!

    • @streetpigeonmtb
      @streetpigeonmtb  ปีที่แล้ว

      Cheers David! Yeah, towards the end I was definitely a but past the comfort zones. I've never seen a wheel taco like that. I was pleased Andrew was OK!
