- A very wet, sloppy, muddy day at Pitmedden with Paterson but a heck of a lot of fun! We started off doing A River Runs Through It to get warmed up then we headed back up the hill to do a trail called All The Jumps that has been recommended to me by lots of people- thanks for the recommendation it is a really good trail. There are lots of jumps of varying sizes but most of them were doable even for me. A great trail to practice jumping. Then we headed over to the DH side of the hill and we think we did Sidewinder and most of Gradient Smile and part of another trail whose name we don't know. The trails at Pitmedden are great- much appreciation thanks to the trail builders.

This is about where you shouted 'Red Squirrel!' If I'm not mistaken... Great vid buddy!
I’ve seen them every time I’ve been there. An added bonus to shredding Pitmedden!🐿🐿🐿👌🤙🤙🤙
Was proper sloppy though. Typical for the UK... Hahaha...
Nice vid mate. :D
Thanks mate, yeah it was a tad wet! 😂. Great fun though.😁🤙🤙
Well ridden Donald, some steeps sections of trail at Pitmedden, those wheel size jumps remind me of some similar ones at Boness MTB trails I went to a while back would only consider attempting myself if the other side is rollable, great to have an experienced rider giving you guidance, may look into getting some lessons from someone I could do with it myself, thanks again for sharing 🎥😁🚵♂️🤙
Cheers Gary, that trail All The Jumps is really good. It has lots of jumps none of them are very big and the run outs are all clear. I just need to practice small one more first. I’m sure you’d be fine to do them all no doubt. Once the restrictions are lifted I must check out Bo’ness trails they sound good.👍😁🤙🤙
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 Actually have some TH-cam footage of the trails, they're small but good, also had a pump track at the bottom of Kinneil wood forest😁🤙
Great vid again. bold riding the downhill trails in those conditions.
Cheers David, the downhill trails were surprisingly grippy - for the most part- it was all the other ones that were very sketchy!😁 🤙. I could well imagine you would have blasted down them.🤙🤙🤙
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 ye, rather bizarrely, i'm loving the wet slidey conditions at the moment. it just makes it hilarious.
@@dangerousdave1970 🤣🤣 you nutter!🤣🤣🤙🤙
Excellent as always muddy need to get myself back out missing all the fun
Yeah, you can’t beat being out on the bike Barry.😁🤙🤙
such a great spot Pitmeddan is!
It really is, huge kudos must go to the trail builders they’ve done a fantastic job. There’s such a variety of trails to pick from too.👌😁
Love pitmedden. Go there a fair bit. was there on Sunday and was super busy! Never seen so many cars there before
I bet you totally blast down the trails mate. Yeah, it’s a great place, the trails are really well made.👌🤙🤙🤙
“All the Jumps” is actually a lot trickier than it perhaps looks. Maybe the jumps are not the highest but there isn’t really a great deal of distance between the trees lining either side of it; a slightly dodgy landing could spell trouble. The terrain is very soft and slippery as well; you did very well there fella!!
Thanks mate, it’s a good trail, it was pretty slippy that day. Just need to get jump practice to do it better.😁😁🤙
just a suggestion to help with the jumping ,and thats practise the bunny hop ...lots......then those jumps on the view to a thrill will be alot easier......the bunny hop teaches you timing of the smaller jumps ,and thats all that seems off with your jumping... those downhill tracks are fantastic in the dry...... and a great test in the wet... well done pal..
Thanks mate. It’s great to get good advice from experienced riders like that. I’ve not really put a lot of effort into learning to jump or bunny hop yet but I am going to going forward. I can understand what your saying that the bunny hop motion would help get that lift on small jumps. Cool, that’s my homework sorted!😂😁🤙🤙🤙Thanks for the advice mate I really appreciate it.👌😁
Braver man that me. Duno if I would have been doing those downhill bits when it's that wet.
Cheers Pete, I think you’d be able to do these trails mate. They are pretty steep in parts but there is quite a bit of grip. A River Runs Through it was far more slippy than the DH trails. You should give them a shot mate they’re also really well made. 👍🤙🤙😁
You looked like you were riding well mate, those trails are very steep and the conditions didn't look great. When I did them I was just happy to get down in one piece! 🤣
Cheers mate. I felt I rode quite well after I got warmed up a bit. The DH trails are pretty steep, at the limit of my abilities at the moment- great fun.😁😁
I like the look at that place loads of features .I thought pitmedden was north of Aberdeen lol 🤙
thats pitfiche mate, nice place
It’s a great place just on the border of Fife and Perth and Kinross, well worth a visit mate.😁🤙🤙🤙
Yeah think I'll try it not to far from me as am in forfar.
Well done on the down hill some tricky stuff go there most wkends
Yeah definitely at the edge of what I’m capable of doing at the moment, really enjoy the trails up at Pitmedden.😁😁🤙
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 the more u push ur limits the better u will get when I first started going there I wouldn’t even look at the down hill stuff loving the videos m8
@@stuartmclaren7285 thanks mate.😁 Wish I knew the names of the DH trails. There are so many crisscrossing over each other it’s hard tell which is which.😂😁🤙
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 yeah there is a few the first one u done was side winder the hammer and tongs I really love all the jumps and river runs through
Rad 🤘🏻
Thanks mate!😁🤙
Love these videos, pitmedden is my local trails. Have you ventures further up the hill and tried flow, gully squeeze, heart of darkness etc? Some good stuff right the way up
Thanks mate!😁. I’ve done some of the trails further up the hill but not those ones, I’ll definitely have to check them out next time I’m there.👍🤙🤙🤙😁
hey man, im heading to Falkland on Wed and Sat if you fancy coming along
I can’t make Saturday but might be able to make Wednesday...I do have some things to do but might be able to make it work. I’ve never been before where about do you park? What time were you thinking?
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 Ill be there all day so come when ever is convenient for you, to get there head for Craigmead Car Park & Picnic Area but before it youll see a fire road on the left hand side to you drive 100 meters past that and theres a layby that we park in. youll see my car with the roof racks.
its a really good place for practice, theres a couple big gaps and a few nice little jumps to progress on!
@@TNTFRUIT1 cool, hopefully I’ll be able to make it.🤞🤞😁🤙
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 yeh, the tracks are rough but good for progression. I'll help you out with your riding
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 that's us heading up just now, will be there for 11.30
You and mtb dad should do a race down river run and see who's fastest
As long as I can use an ebike on turbo mode.😂😂😂🤙🤙🤙
@@muddymongoosemtb9873 hahaha
