😍 Nicely done! We've got some dig days coming up on those trails at Hallyburton 9th and 23rd March if anyone wants to come help fix up the boggy bits and diversions 😁
Awesome riding Andy, it's a great place to ride. 👌
Nice trails. I love all the small kickers, they add fun to the trail. The builders did a great job.
Great job by the trail builders for sure, especially on Purple Heart👌
Big up Tayside Trail Association!! Amazing job guys! Trails are running sweet!
Pedant alert - that's not Ballo 1 and Spicy bits, it's Corona. Ballo and 'Bits is ridden so much it's pretty blown out right now. You're better off on the trails in the middle anyway - Corona is a great trail. Hope you enjoyed both sides of Ballo, and welcome back to Scotland.
Such a good set of hills, I went over to the east side today and was pleasently surprised how good the less steep trails were. Shame you didn't do the second half of Tangerine dream after you cross the climb, one of my personal favourite bits, fast and off camber.
Our local trails. Tayside Trail Association putting in a lot of work to those trails just now.
Hallybutron trails are ace! really well built, never been to Ballo at the other side, will have to explore one time, Thanks for sharing Andy! 😁
More belting trails tho n welcome home bro. Gd see the bike fixed . Great vid dude 👊
🚴 Great Stuff buddy enjoyed the Video 👍
great video, sweet trails and nice riding Andrew...coming back early means you get to enjoy the slop too :) cheers!
You got that right!😂
Just did a night session in lundie on that new trail as well for the first time, it was absolutely soaked and it managed to claim my brake pads in the mud somehow.
Oh dear, good old winter riding 😜
Nice trails!
They are!
Simply can't beat a bit of UK slop 🤷♂ thx for the content!👍
having ridden both the R and XR would you recommend the longer 170 forks?
just got a crafty R and thinking of an air shaft upgrade, although the HTA doesnt feel as steep when riding as the figures would sugggest
I wouldn’t bother changing it, unless you feel it’s lacking in any way. I didn’t know that they had different form travel tbh.
Great video as always. Glad you're enjoying being back home.
Why not get your mate to take you indoor climbing? Great to gain confidence and technique,without the injury risks. Also Great for full body work out but especially core strength.
That’s what we actually decided on. Makes the most sense👍
@McTrailRider Its great I now go bouldering indoors two nights a week and making progress. Enjoy!
Good to hear your Mondraker warranty experience was a good one. I bought one myself (crafty RR)
Have you got a link to the 3d printed charger cover please? The standard one is abit…..💩
I’m only aware of the cover from Progression Bikes tbh.

Not been to Ballo woods in ages but don’t recognise any of the trail but there are two sides I think 🤔 is that the same Ballo near Coupar Angus yeh? Brexit the gift that keeps on giving!
The first load of trails were over on the other side to the main hill. And yes, these are next to Coupar Angus👍
One side is ballo, the other is known as lundie. (The side with the 3 jumps and berms)
Need to go back as I only did one side I’m sure it was the same trail names just looked completely different! 👍
On trailforks ballo is the hill with korma, spicy bits etc. Lundie has agent orange and purple heart 💜
There has been loads done there during and post COVID, so if you've not been for a while it's very different
Thanks Kevin, will defo go back👍
And I thought this was a video you made before you left. Too bad you had to cut the trip short Andrew, but definitely if Alix was bored it was time. Maybe next time you can do that ride with Nathan.
Hopefully Nathan will be free next time 🤞
That other hill the other side of Ballo is known as Hallyburton.
I had since learnt this, would be better knowing before the video though 🤦🏼♂️
@@McTrailRider Lol. I quite like the trails at Hallyburton. I haven't been in a while but it was a lot drier when I was there.
First, nice to see you back home
Haha, cheers 👍
Oor local 🎉
Great local 👌
Nice! And thanks to Brexit, you were able to take back control of your ebike - early.😉
Haha, silver linings and all that 😜
