Found some hidden trails in some new woods and raked my own as well. If the people that dug the second trail see this then get in touch and I'll show you mine;) Shot winter 08 - Cheers for the filming Tim...

Could of sworn I commented on this vid, might have been a re-post though or something.
Anyway, sick vid, ripping about the woods on a ht is what real men do.

I miss shredding trails... I havent had the money to build up a new trailbike for a while now... This vid is what riding should be about... doesn't have to be the biggest tricks or the fastest DHers, just pedalin through some trails for some good old fashion fun!

cervo (Jan 8, 2009 at 1:14)

really nice one... good to see some hardtail ripping... but I didn't like one thing...
about the trails centers or bike parks... man, did you ever wonder how many private lands you went through when you made your trail? and did you ever think how long your trail will last that way??? trails centers are made sustainable...

Brilliant video quality, the filming and editing was sublime!
although i have to say that the riding was a bit boring but it did get better towards the end

but it just shows what good producers you are to make some boring riding look immense

props to you

Nice video, good riding and editing bue I guess that trail is a bit boring.
Nevermind, great work there, keep riding Wink

grahamc (Jan 8, 2009 at 4:50)

Trail centers provide an important riding resource. They introduce people to the sport and provides sustainable trails that can be ridden in all weathers. Dont slate them.

You have to remember who builds these trail centers.

I do like your video and there is a romance about building your own trail. Everyone should do it.

You have the aspect ratio wrong. It looks like 16:9 pictures rendered as 4:3, everything is tall and thin.

Great riding and editing though!

yeah pinkbike did it Frown

looks a lot better in fullscreen in 16:9
Thanks!

Rockstorm:

I enjoyed the video. Looks like it will just get better as that trail beds in.

Not ranting here, just a general comment...when people are posting up vids, it would be great to get general information on the regional location. No need for specifics, we don't need to know how to locate your secret trail, but maybe something like Western Washington State, Scotland, Western B.C., etc.

Peace Out and keep up the good work.
