did not know the trails where i lived where so popular? loved? idk but ya get what im trying to say. tho i guess mabey i should have thought of that when sam pilgrim came up here
Great video…..I live only about a 15 minute pedal away from this trail…and only 25 mins from BPW, which I’m yet to try)I’m so lucky! It’s become my regular playground after retiring early at 55 this last summer….I got an ebike to make the ascents more palatable, and then very quickly upgraded from a cube reaction hardtail to a giant reign full sus. I took a rather heavy fall off pedalhounds just before Christmas though and it’s meant I’ve been laid up for the last few weeks nursing a sore shoulder,ribs, knee, neck and back…(I never do things by half). Even though this was at low speed off, it made me realise the importance of proper gear(having severely dented my relatively cheap open face helmet) …since then, I’ve invested in a full face , as a couple of friends have damaged their faces and also lost teeth up there, plus some much needed armour as being unable to ride over Christmas has really been a frustration and somewhat painful! All the new gear has been sat there waiting for my healing to complete ! Let’s hope it doesn’t take to long before I’m back on the trails and able to rebuild my confidence as even a minor spill like mine which resulted in non hospitalisation certainly knocks it! I look forward to seeing ,any more of your videos!
I happen to have rode this yesterday as part of a 3 day trip to FoD, Cwmcarn and Flyup 417 and totally agree, the climb is pretty long but that downhill makes it all worth it!
Is it just me or are you going fking flying down there LOL, Ive never been mountain biking but I’m about to buy my first bike (Bizango pro maybe) and try, how long have you been MBing for, may I ask? So fast
@@MikesMTBAdventures ahh I've got the 27 version in same color I think, but with black rear triangle. Thinking of maybe getting the 29 version. How do you find it with the higher BB?
Itching to get back and ride this again already. What a place - no more said.....
It is I've done it a fair few times... ebike this year will make it easier 🤣🤣
Great vid. You should try the off piste stuff - even more amazing!
@@crookedcrank2566 thanks dude. Next time

Totally buddy 👍👍
Nice. I might try this soon
That does look the nuts!
Awesome vid I'm quite lucky Cwmcarn bikepark is literally on my doorstep 10mins walk.
This place is amazing 😍
Awesome!
Hmmm.. How can I put it in one word... EPIC!
would Sam Pilgrim find it EPIC, i think yes.
I've not been for years. But been anywhere for a couple of years. Can't wait to get there looks ace. Is your group going again anytime soon?
Just keep an eye out in the events if you're in the group buddy
Mike dude, wow! Fast, sick riding mate, great to watch. I HAVE to get there and shred, looks flippin' quality. Out of ten, what would you give it?
Its just a different experience. Choose the right weather, this hands down is 10. My sort of riding all day long
Do you think this is manageable on a hardtail?
Absolutely buddy
Did you try the off piste on the other side?
Didnt have time or the legs buddy 😂👍 next time defo
Is it just me or are you going fking flying down there LOL, Ive never been mountain biking but I’m about to buy my first bike (Bizango pro maybe) and try, how long have you been MBing for, may I ask? So fast

Hello
You on the 29er or 27?
29er bud
@@MikesMTBAdventures ahh I've got the 27 version in same color I think, but with black rear triangle. Thinking of maybe getting the 29 version. How do you find it with the higher BB?
@@MikesMTBAdventures also rode there last Sunday great riding
@@pintospirits prefer the 29er all day long. Never thought id say that 😂 if you do purchase one, drop my name and youll get a, cheeky discount 😉
Terrifying to me
Get an ebike ..you will nearly half your laptime
