Ultimate Adventure clip submission
I got into riding through my Dad, following his tracks on my 20" wheeled 'Dirt Squirt' through the woods of Exmoor in the UK. Years later, after continued riding and enjoyment in XC, Downhill and Enduro, it was time to go to university. Having researched many options on courses I eventually decided the basis of my choice was where I was going to live and how accessible adventure would be. For this reason I chose to live in the most mountainous part of England, the Lake District! A course in Outdoor Leadership didn't seem all that bad either but I still managed to neglect studies to go out in any weather doing anything I thought was going to push my boundaries. My riding and general adventurism has improved beyond belief, I go back home to 'the tricky trail' and its a breeze. Now after three years of Lake District life and riding I feel like I need a new set of mountains to throw me and my bike down. This phantasmagorical opportunity will allow for me and my bro to experience true adventure together, without us having to sell our kidneys to get our adventure fix. This film of 'A Normal Day in the Lakes' shows me and my adventuring pal Dan scaling Helvellyn's 'Swirral Edge' in the snow. (We got many people with crampons and axes asking us if we were lost). We knew what we were doing and plummeted down 'Sticks Pass' in the white stuff, whooping and hollering all the way. I threw ideas at my 'up and coming sports photographer friend' James France who helped out with the filming side and I have to say I am very proud of the result! I hope this has shown my hunger for adventure and challenge in just a minute and look forward to hearing from the Bikester and Pinkbike team.
