    Skillfully navigated through the tech of Thornielee, always good to see the different trails you can ride here, these trails seemed to have became more popular recently, thanks for sharing!

    Hey there, great vid on Thornielee. I very recently watched your last one when you were there in the snow! Also visited this myself about 2 weeks ago and thoroughly enjoyed the place. I first saw your vids of this place 3 years ago, and it's taken me this long to work up the skill and courage do to them!

      Thanks! That’s great to hear you went for it and enjoyed it! The trails are really good and a bit different 👌

    Thanks for sharing - really good to confirm that the trails at the top aren't crazily steep. I wasn't sure whether it was the famous GoPro flattening that made the trails look a bit less hairy. I stay abroad now but really want to get to these trails and Yair in the Tweed Valley when I'm back in Scotland sometime. So much to biking to choose from there!

      Yeah the top ones are a nice gradient and not too techy for the most part, just really good fun. It is hard to tell with the classic go pro effect! Ah well I’d definitely recommend these southern tweed valley spots!

    Great place to ride, I think top dogging must be my favourite track

    its a great place to ride, small area but trails are so good. good place to setup suspension as well.

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Totally. Yeah actually it would be a good place for that with how easy it is to lap!

    I'm still waiting to see a video on SNIPER at Yair

      Yeah the ones we rode were running great. Ahah we do need to ride it sometime! It’s got quite the reputation!

    @phmtb 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    What's your brake setup? I think mine would have definitely overheated on those trails! Ha

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We both run Hayes dominions. Used to be on Hope but finding these a lot more reliable and good modulation!

    Being a valley local I dunno if you've heard the rumour that Thornie might be getting flattened by forestry work...all of it. :(

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ah yeah I did hear a rumour a good few months back now but not sure if it’s certain. I hope it isn’t!
