  • Former world champion downhill racer Manon Carpenter travel to Nesbyen, Norway, to learn how modern technology unveils new bike paths - and to ride some of the classic trails that have put Nesbyen on the MTB map. She team up with architect and mountain biking guide Will Gibson. He and other locals use super-detailed maps in search of long-forgotten trails in the hillsides surrounding town. Old logging paths prove to be tailor-made for modern trail biking.

    Incredible area. I wish there would be a nice (tent friendly) natural campsite in town, suitable for longer stays and mountain bikers with kids.

      There is a campsite at Sjong but it is about 5km out fo town. The one in town shut down during Covid and never reopened so I'm not sure what is going on with it, perhaps we need someone to move here and get it going again!

    This is amazing!
    Finding these old trails and also explore some history of norway feels so good. Even as a spectator.😂
    Nice to see Nesbyen grow as a MTB spot!
    Hope to be there this summer.

    Fantastic vid, I wish they had something similar where I live. Here trails are just whatever you can find to ride.

      @@Arsenit lidar scanning is relatively new, but you can search it up and might find something. I think if you're looking for trails, it might be worth asking for local history to find out if there might be hidden trails in places.
      Lots of towns have old infrastructure that's lost or forgotten.
