@Mugtree cheers mate! I've never ridden a rekon before or Kryptotal but I know some who think they are great tyres too. I have ridden Agassai as well which are pretty good as long as it isn't too muddy, so I'm back on the Wild Enduros again now! Sounds like you do a lot of riding in tough places. I'd love to check those places out on the bike. Thanks for your comment it's great to get real life reviews off fellow mtbers. 😃👌🤙🤙🤙

@ no worries and great to hear. The Wild Enduros definitely sound good. Will give them a try. Thank you I love mountain biking. Definitely if you can explore. There is an amazing world out there

@crazyoldmaninthewoods thanks Andy, hopefully I'll get out again in the near future. 😃🤙

@@kenphileh 🤣🤣🤣quite possibly 🤔 🤣🤣🤣

@DrFaroon cheers! You are all doing a great job up there. The trails are superb and you could see the work that's been put in. Thank you! 😃👌🤙🤙🤙

@crazyoldmaninthewoods Cheers Andy, its a really nice forest for walking. Some great fun trails as well. Sadly there was a lot more that are now gone, not just because of storms but felling too. To be fair, there must be a good trail crew there because the amount of trees down is crazy but they'd still cut through lots to open up some of the trails at the top of the hill. Hopefully in time more will be opened or made. Hope you're doing well mate. 😃🤙🤙🤙

@rossjacksonmtb yeah, it's a pity mate. Still some fun trails there though. 😀🤙🤙🤙

@garyalexander3281 cheers mate. There are still some good trails there but unfortunately quite a few of the ones I liked are gone. 🤙🤙🤙

@helenpeters436 the roots running across the corner are very off putting for me...I'm sure I'll do it one of these days and I'll think to myself- why was it freaking me out?🤣🤣🤣 Is Blairadam your local?

@TheBikingVikingDude it's a great place but there would be so much work to get those trails back, the amount of massive trees down is crazy. Mind you there are probably plenty of bits to get back or reroute. The bike is great, I love it. Not been out on it enough though but hopefully will get out more soon. You been shredding much recently?

@muddymongoosemtb9873 Yeah, Mark and I have been hitting a lot of places, lots of footage to be edited but not had time with work, and I had to repair my laptop Should have something new out by the end of the week. Where are you hitting next?

@TheBikingVikingDude I'm not sure, been wanting to go back to Comrie Croft as only been there once and really enjoyed it...so maybe there. I'll look forward to seeing your videos when they are out mate. 😀🤙🤙🤙

@@shygravy 🤣🤣🤣thanks

@RicardoPetrazzi cheers mate. You been out much?

@user-uc7se2no7b hi there I've never entered it from that direction but I'm pretty sure you can enter from the B981 into a road called Fordell Castle and that will take you to the start of a trail called the Scout Camp Loop on Trailforks. Hope that helps.🤙🤙🤙

@@muddymongoosemtb9873 thanks very much for the help, just trying find more local places, as just new to using trails on a mountain bike

@user-uc7se2no7b there are trails at Lochore Meadows, Braefoot and Blairadam Forset. All worth checking out.😃🤙🤙🤙

Hi there 56°06'09.5"N 3°58'51.7"W is approximately where it is according to Google Maps. I hope that helps. 🤙😃

@muddymongoosemtb9873 thanks!!

@StennyD yeah, it's such a fun wee place to mess about. 😃🤙🤙🤙

@@muddymongoosemtb9873 Aye its ace. Was back there bout 3 years ago,. Had been 20 yrs previously since I was last there. Good times. Changed a bit and can only get better. Shame the body's not so young now 🤣🤣

Cheers mate, I know what you mean, so many times I've bottled it on things and then when you eventually do it you think to yourself, what was I worried about? 🤔🤣🤣🤣 I think if I could turn that corner smoothly before it I'd be fine, just slowed down too much and that was that. I'll give it a go again in the future. 😃🤙🤙🤙

Cheers Dave, I think you are right...I do seem to almost freeze as I come into that right hand corner but I've realised recently that it's pretty much all tight right hand corners into steep stuff that I have a problem with...need to keep practicing and commit to it as you say. Hope you're doing well mate. 😃🤙

Thanks mate, they are great trails. Even better when they are dry! 😃🤙🤙🤙

Thanks mate! 😁🤙🤙

Thank you Sergio. It's a fun place to ride. 😃🤙🤙🤙

Cheers Gary, it definitely makes it more enjoyable in the dry. 😃🤙

Definitely mate, so much better than endless sloppy mud! 🤣🤣🤣

Thanks mate! 😃

Cheers mate, if possible I'll be there, it would be great to meet up. I'm on holiday then but our plans aren't finalised so not sure if I'll be back. But if I can I'd love to come along.😃🤙🤙🤙

It's a fantastic wee trail, pure fun factor 😀 🤙🤙🤙

Thanks mate, it's a fun trail.😃🤙🤙🤙

Thanks mate! 😃🤙🤙🤙

Funnily enough, I've been thinking that I need to go back to Comrie Croft. Only been once a few years ago and really enjoyed it. Is that your local?😀🤙🤙🤙

Cheers Gary, it's definitely worth a quick whizz down it. It was dry on this occasion but it is pretty sketchy in the wet as its fast and you can slide on the mud and roots towards the trees! Such a fun trail though, one of my favourites.😃🤙🤙🤙

I know what you mean. Glasses are really good but I do still use my goggles if it's really windy or if it's really muddy as I have had mud get in my eye under the glasses.🤣🤣🤙🤙🤙

Cheers Gordy, I'm the same, trying not to get too frustrated at myself and move on...I'll do it next time, I hope! 🤣🤣🤣🤙🤙🤙

Cheers Dave, I'm pretty certain I can do that chute on Covid 19 but it was the first run of the day and it was slippy. Think if we'd done a warm up lap on A River Runs Through It first I would have been OK...but then again maybe not I might still have bottled it. 🤣🤣🤣 Hope you're doing well mate. Would be good to get out on the trails again at some point with you. 😃🤙🤙🤙

@@muddymongoosemtb9873 ye all good mate. Anytime!

Cheers, Ross! Definitely go mate, it's a great place with lots of brilliant trails. 😃🤙🤙🤙

Cheers, Ricardo, you should definitely check them out. You'll love them, I'm sure. It's a great place to ride, and there are lots more trails there. I'll definitely return and won't leave it for another 4 years! 😃🤙🤙🤙It was good conditions on the day, pretty grippy. The trails would be very difficult when wet, I think.

🤣🤣🤣 Believe it or not but I was actually quite relaxed. Did swear a lot at the end because I kept messing things up braking too hard. It was a lot easier this time than when I was there before on my old bike...that day I was bricking myself!🤣🤣🤣 Cheers mate. 😃🤙🤙🤙

@@muddymongoosemtb9873 you should treat yourself to some smooth flow trails after that root fest 😂

Cheers Gary, yeah sorry it all got a bit sweary at the end! 🤣🤣🤣 It was more through frustration than fear. I was knackered by the last trail and wasn't concentrating properly and so was braking too hard. Brilliant trails up there, highly recommended if you haven't done them yet. Yeah those log drop/jumps weren't high but you couldn't see the landing until you were right on them. I'd do them now I know they aren't bad. Have a good day tomorrow mate, look forward to seeing the video if you are filming it. 😃🤙🤙🤙

​@@muddymongoosemtb9873Although mainly forest road where we're heading there is some amazing scenery will attempt to capture with drone will still record GoPro footage of trip too, cheers! 😁

Thanks mate! 😀 🤙 It's a great place to ride, so much fun.👌

Yes

🤣🤣🤣🤣cheers mate.🤣🤣🤣

Cheers Dave, they certainly are spicy, great fun though. I loved 9.8 trail. Bambi Farts was very difficult...I'm sure I could do better on it by going faster. Still don't think I'm capable of doing the whole thing without stopping but at least I know what to expect on it now. Bet you flow down them. Hope you are well mate. 😃🤙

@@muddymongoosemtb9873 ive not ridden as many of the trails up there as i'd like. i used to ride regularly up there on the old SDA DH trail. It was a phenomenal trail. And the other trail that i rode there was cairn to cottage, which has gotten a lot harder over the years. but is a great trail. If i head up that way, i usually ride at Pitlochry - which also has some utterly wild trails. Maybe need to make more of an effort to ride Dunkeld this year! And ye, all good here cheers!

@dangerousdave1970 I've seen videos of trails at Pitlochry, they look very steep and techy. With considerable more practice I may give them a visit.🤔😱🤯🤕🤣🤣🤣

Cheers mate, I appreciate your support! 😃 I loved my Strika, such a fun bike. A friend had the Boxer and I remember him trying to do a wheelie and the front wheel just fell off as he lifted it off the ground. He came crashing down with a thump onto the tarmac!🤣🤣🤣 I've been a subsciber and enjoying you and Downhill Desires channels for quite some time. Great watching your adventures and you helping Gordon to progress out on the trails. Keep up the good work mate. .😃🤙🤙🤙

@muddymongoosemtb9873 Thanks Donald, looking forward to the summer season hopefully get Gordy out more and faster so he can catch me on film lol

Cheers mate! Yeah, got a lot of work to do until I can send jumps like you. Practice, practice, practice! 😃🤙🤙🤙

@muddymongoosemtb9873 doing great though, watched that one where you separated your shoulder, I was shouting at the screen to try get you to stop lol 😆

@@dirtcheapdownhill2848 🤣🤣🤣 If only you'd been there! 🤣🤣🤣

@muddymongoosemtb9873 you making me go all shy 😆

You've got a fair point mate. Callum who has been in a couple of my videos doesn't like Wild Enduros at all he swears by the Assegai's. And Dave Bradley who is also a very good rider and has been in some of my videos also loves Agassais. It's probably a case of good riders can use almost any tyre and ride well. I definitely need all the help I can get with grip! 🤣🤣🤣It's definitely a down to personal preference and as you say my body positioning does need a lot of work, that's for sure. I do feel for me the Wild Enduros have saved me from crashing a few times by gripping in at the last second especially when cornering. I didn't have any sketchy feelings with the Assegais when the trails were dry, I love how fast they roll, but in the mud I found them a bit skittish. As you say it's probably because I'm not weighting them properly through poor body position and that's why for me I feel the Wild Enduros are a better fit for me at the moment. Probably will switch back to the Agassai in the summer months though. I know a few people who are totally rating Continental Kryptotal tyres which look very grippy too. I'm quite intrigued to give them a shot. Cheers mate. Its good to hear your view of the Agassai's. What tyre set up do you run with? 😃🤙

Cheers Gary. They are definitely challenging- Bambi Farts trail was above my skill level for now to be honest. It was great fun sessioning the DH trail, trying to pick better lines and get loosened up, although I know what you mean about trying to cram as many trails into an outing as possible. I've seen you ride pretty techy stuff, I'm sure you'd be good on the DH trail it was rough but doable. 9.8 trail was also doable, with your ebike you'd get up the climbing sections easier as well- I was totally blowin' 🤣🤣🤣 I'm so unfit. 🥵🥵🥵😃🤙🤙🤙

@@muddymongoosemtb9873 Agreed years ago ridden up the forest roads here without the ebike and was totally blown out myself! 💥😂 Ebike definitely handy here, will have to get myself to Dunkeld soon 🤙

They definitely were challenging Andy. Great fun though, I love the trails at Dunkeld, so good. Cheers mate 😃🤙🤙🤙

Cheers mate. I appreciate that. You'd fly down these trails mate. 😃🤙🤙🤙🤙

You'd love these trails Ricardo and you'd get down them no bother mate. I've done Birnam before, they are top trails too. I love Dunkeld, it's definitely my favourite place to ride. Yeah, would be great to meet up again soon mate.😃🤙🤙🤙
