RIDING A DOWNHILL BIKE IN THE FOREST OF DEAN!

- Myself and @TomCardy went on a road trip to the Forest of Dean and I decided to ride the downhill bike on the proper downhill trails! This is the first time I have ridden the downhill bike on trails like this and it was epic, the extra suspension feels amazing!
Cannop Bikepark has a variety of different level downhill trails for people of all abilities! I decided to try out some new ones which I have not ridden before and pushed my limits!
I hope you enjoy the video!

Yes karaaa!!!! Cant believe matt jones gf just uploaded a mtb vid😂 anyone exited for audi nines?!!!
Christ, that was fast🙉 well done for the first time on that bike👏👏🤟
Greetings from Texas! Love your videos! Keep riding & keep having fun! 🥰
Rode it last weekend for the first time, definitely not the last!!!
Great area, plenty of varied trails for all abilities. Up lift available, bike hire available including e bikes, shop, cafe, toilets. It really is a great day out for you and your friends and family if you like to MTB. If you sit at home watching telly, maybe not so....
Nice one, this my local, I ride it on a HT with 120 travel upfront, bone shaker... Love it here
Thanks Kara at work you just made my day can't wait to get home and take my doggo for a ride in my back pack ☺️🐕🚴
Great riding Kara! That place looks amazing 🤘
Nice to know you now have your very own dedicated shuttle service! :)
Send it!!! Such a good trail there! It would be cool if I could see picture-in-picture of the suspensions and rider face for reactions to all the bumps and jumps!
Yes Kara!!! That was awesome! I think you need your own DH Bike now....looking really quick on Tom's bike...sick!🤘🏻
That would be sick!!
sick vid kara🤩such an inspiration
Thanks 😊
Looks like a rad place to ride!! 👊🏼
Hey Kara Beal! You were getting good speed on the downhill bike! 3 bonus points to Tom Cardy for the great follow cam footage! Ride ride ride!
Thank you very much!
Yeahaaaaaaa !
5:42 thats me wahayyy 😂
I spotted you both at the top of the push up track at the weekend chatting with Blake from gmbn cracking video as usual kara
Good to see your progression Kara! I have just started riding recently too, its been a steep curve for you keep it up
Yes Kara keep doing what ur doing
Thank you!
Still can't understand how you can ride without any gloves on your hands to protect them properly !!!
I agree totally. If I owned a trail centre I would make gloves compulsory. Hand injuries are excruciatingly painful and if its your dominant hand then life gets really difficult. Even wiping your ass is a struggle lol. I recently forgot my gloves but thought f%ck it, I'm at my local trail centre (FOD) and I'm riding trails ive ridden 100 times. Well I crashed at the very bottom of launchpad and my right palm was skinned by the gravel. As a 44 year old 6ft tall 15 stone bloke, I actually struggled to not cry. Riding without gloves is absolute insanity.
U progressing quick! Nice one👍
Thank you 🙏🏼
Kara Beal no problem 🤙
You should ask haibike for one of their e-downhill bikes which are a downhill bike with a built in uplift! Sam would say they are the dream!!!😂😂
That would be amazing!
Or just be a real chad, f#ck the sponsors and get a 2020 kenevo. I have a 2019 levo and a 2020 kenevo, both amazing bikes and both so very different from each other. My old yamaha haibike was sold within days of getting my kenevo. Yes, I am a spesh fan boy, since 1988 too 🤣
totaly would ride a DH bike more often if i had a Tom-Lift aswell :D
Yet again major improvements to your riding style# progression
Thank you!
Another brilliant video. Love your opinions on how the different bikes feel and clear footage and descriptions of the various trails. You should contact local TV and see if they would do an article re motivating more women into the sport at a grass root level. You would be brilliant. Keep up the good work.
How's that new Fox 40 with the Grip 2 damper ride?
Crikey you’ve become fast
Hello, not sure I’ll get a reply but what did you guys use to tow in this vid?
Couple of Amazing trails there Kara and impressive speed to match, was wondering, what helps you maintain speed through the trails? Thanks for sharing 😁
Try and ride 'smooth and clean'' rather than fast. The speed will follow naturally. Exactly the same principle as learning to play a musical instrument.
@@kriso4447 Interesting, will keep this in mind when out next, thanks for advice! 👍
Come on sponsors give kara a dh bike please!🤔
4:05 What are you doing Kara???? I thought you were a real mountain biker and enjoyed the first part of your video. But I have stopped watching when I saw that you were being pulled up. But thank goodness, you were not riding your motor-bike up! :)
But - Thank you Kara for sharing.
I don't understand these 'e bikers are not proper mountain bikers' comments. Before I discovered e bikes, I would go to the FOD after work, pedal to the top of verders, do one descent of a tech downhill trail, and then go home. Now I have e bikes I can go to the fod at 5pm and do anywhere between 5 and 8 downhill runs before dinner. I have become a much better rider because of this. If your passion is descending then why would you not want a bike with uplift shuttle built in? Every hater I've encountered has been instantly converted after one go on one of my e bikes. They are the best invention of the last decade.

I am 69yrs and my friend is 68yrs and we are lovers of the natural woods.
Last week, before our Oregon Fires, we embarked on a 6 hour 25 miles climb (and crazy rampage down) up a 2000ft peak. Near the top I heard the hum of gears and a (younger than us) guy who was really pumping zoomed by us - obviously an e-(motor)bike.
Very disturbing to us who were laboring up (and enjoying it) but having to jump out of the way! I know this is just one guy, but this is my general experience.
I also must add that walkers can resent us bikers and the horseriders as well. I guess I cannot be considered a purist since I am clothed on a mechanical gadget/bike, but I am not a "hater" however, like most, I do like things the way I like them. 😊
Swear down she got like 10 bikes I’ve got a 100mm XX hardtail with a rear wheel that hits the front derailleur and a basically slick tyre and black trails are still fun she should try it but different from the DH rig 😂😂
Any reccomendations on a helmet
Bell Super DH. Its a full face but the chin piece is removable. Saved my life after a high speed head first collision with a large tree. I bought another one and kept the dented one as a souvenir.
You're really going well now Kara. My only negative is the constant use of the word 'sick' to describe things
Thank you! Haha sorry!
@@KaraBeal keep it up its sick! haha
You should try Y2K, it's great for progression
Flying lass
I need new bike😂
Will you get a downhill bike or you prefer your trail bike?
The forks look far too firm you have next to no travel
Nice vid..you really are tooting along these days.
Everyones watching Sams vid though ;)
