Photo of the Day on
May 14, 2014
Selected by Matt Wragg - There's nothing like a mountain bike to take you to place a long way out from the world. This photo makes me long to turn the cranks on some far-off, distant plain.

Looking through these comments I am beginning to realise more and more that pinkbike is now just full of dickheads and idiots that have found a common place to express their vapid opinions. It's a pity. It's a nice shot. There will be a different one tomorrow. Chill the fuck out.

This kind of riding is not promoted, so no sheep will follow 
Though the descriptions says it's a long way out from the world... It's not true. Open the link and you will see it's about 20 - 50km from towns and Motorway 6 It gives that feeling though.

Agreed; the shot is a great one. Riding like this evokes a sense of adventure and escapism and the photo captures this.

In England, not quite so much Wales and Scotland, 20 - 50km is about as far as it is possible to get away from towns and motorways.

This is a real concern because the internet is real life and you're forced to read every comment people post. There's no way you could just look at the picture and enjoy it. (heavy sarcasm)

Loads of great stuff like this in the UK! I'll be riding somewhere less remote but beautiful all the same tonight here: gb.geoview.info/approaching_worlds_end_gorge_from_ruabon_mountain_nr_llangollen,1145771p

Grew up round Llangollen, some awesome riding, absolutely love the climbers path down from Worlds End back towards Llan.

What a place! Just discovered that track last week and another down between the cliffs and acre at Trefor! Give me a shout if your ever up this way again for a ride. Would be great to get some local knowledge

I dare somebody to get a POD with a smaller, farther away rider. Yet, it's still a beautiful shot, I like it.
