Words: Forbidden
What the UK lacks in vert it makes up for in craft and creativity. UK riders don’t get easy access to the type of vert that’s on tap in a place like BC, but that doesn’t stop any of them from harvesting a disproportional amount of fun, skill, and style out of a rolling landscape.
Fortunately for us we have a stacked roster of riders in the UK that are well equipped to use the landscape to their full advantage. Join Forbidden UK’s team of riders and freeride legend, Vinny Armstrong, on a Saturday deep in the Forest of Dean, where the stage was set for an all time ride. The UK squad hail from as far south as Brighton and as far north as Manchester, so we rarely get the whole crew together, but when we do, rest assured, the vibes go up and the gang gets down.
Strap in and feast your eyes on two and a half minutes of shapes, corners, flow, and good old fashioned trail rippin, in ‘Field Day’.
Hopefully it’s a Saturday (or hypothetically at least) where you are, as you might want to ride your bike after this.
