Probably a really bad idea to show this to the UKC collective, but here goes anyway

Short video of Whinlatter Red South downhill bits last weekend in Lake District. We had a great second trip to Whinlatter and did the blue and both reds and had very big grins.

Trail centre users are the top-ropers of mountain biking!


There, got it over with.


I love that descent. I imagine the north one wasn't in such a good condition?

In reply to ChrisJD:

Nicely done, a bit worrying that I could guess what obstacle was next up clearly I have spent too much time there.

In reply to MHutch:

The North was great actually (but I don't mind the wet) - I'll post some video of that sometime (though the middle section bit DH was way too dark in the woods for the GoPro to do anything worthwhile)

In reply to Horse:

Cheers!

Did you find your self leaning into the corners with the video!?

In reply to MHutch:

I don't actually ride trail centres 'that' much - but a double family trip away to the Lakes and the 'MacDonalds' of biking beckoned....

Did a short mountain ride the next day to purge...

In reply to ChrisJD:

I need to get up there again sometime - although it looked a bit damp, I had to chuck my bike across a four foot deep stream in Yorkshire and wade it on the same day you filmed that.

In reply to MHutch:

It was definitely wet at Whinlatter and out in hills next day! I might as well have stood under a shower with someone hurling mud at me.

Made for some fun riding though.

In reply to ChrisJD:

No, but I did lift out the saddle a couple of times (hardtail rider) and did shuffle left once in anticipation of the big puddle.

In reply to Horse:

I tried to 'pump' the car over some speedbumps the other day. Sad.
