  • Welcome to Glentress MTB trails and a full course preview of the Tweedlove Local Enduro 2021. This particular ride takes in 5 of the best trails in Glentress; Ho Chi Minh, Trailfairy Plan, Hush Hush, Broon Troot and the blacks with Ponduro.
    If you are new to my videos then expect to see high quality riding vlogs shot in the same style as McTrail Rider, Paul the Punter and BKXC. I try to travel to the best MTB locations in Scotland finding you the best mountain biking trails.
    This mountain biking MTB / enduro POV video was shot in.. The video was shot on a GoPro Hero 7 mounted on the chin of a Met Parachute helmet using a Gnartec mount.
    I am supported by Bird Cycleworks. The bike being ridden is a Bird Aeris AM9, 150mm 29er enduro bike www.bird.bike/aeris-am9/
    I am a brand ambassador for Crow MTB. They make brilliant, eco-conscious MTB apparel. Go check them out at www.crowmountainbiking.com/
    I am supported by Fenwicks cleaning products. Check them out, they are really nice products for sure! fenwicksbike.com/products/
    I collaborate with Ridelines, an MTB tuition company. They offer a fantastic service and should be considered by anyone wanting to improve their riding. Check them out at ridelines.co.uk/

    Nice vid dude. Glad to see theyve opened the trench up a bit on sideB. i had written that trail off as basically unrideable, but may go have a spin on it again. but that combo with Bside, then across into hush hush, broon troot, into ewok, the bitch then supersteep is utterly world class.
