  • Singletrack mountain bike route with Street Pigeon MTB in the hills above Cademuir and Peebles, opposite from the Glentress trails. Vlog with POV from riding on the snow and a few clips. It was a good way to spend an afternoon adventuring through the hills with adrenaline filled descents. Snow riding is intense!
    Started in Peebles up through Cademuir and into the hills, taking in 4 descents in total. A good laugh and credit to Mr Pigeon for his confidence in the conditions!
    Bike: Saracen Ariel LT
    Filmed on: Go Pro Hero 8

    That looked like a total scream. Love riding in snow. That pigeon was flying - joke intended. Thanks for filming, Andy

      Cheers, it’s so good isn’t it! Ouch hope you’re not too bashed. Nothing worse than black ice! Being super cautious on the fireroads etc. Quite a bit of it about on these!

    Excellent video. Did you have special tyres on for the snow/ice or just standard MTB tyres?

      Thanks! I just had my normal ones (michelin wild enduro) on. Was pretty chuffed with their grip in the snow 👍

    Looking at buying a Saracen ariel lt soon. Dont sopose you know the differance between the LT and the LTX do you ?

    • @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB
      @LauraJaneWeeTamMTB  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Nice one. They’re proper machines. From what I could see before it looked like the same frames but LTX is the name for just the frame so you can get a custom build and LT is the full bike spec’d by Saracen. That’s just my take on it tho!

      was actually considering doing something like that recently - a bike check and upgrades. Noticed that when I bought it - there was almost nothing!
