Nice I rode this recently and you made it look so easy :) great riding and this is a pretty sick course for experienced riders, the cam doesnt do the difficulty of this run justice as is often the case with these trail cam feeds.
Bought a mountain bike a couple of weeks ago and this was the first ever trail I did. I went over the handle bars earlier on up the trail but this bit was great fun, even though I didn't tear down it like in the video.
yeah, thats the thing about whinlatter - it's lethal in the wet! This last section is more of a manufactured surface though and it doesnt get anywhere near as slippy as the rest of the trail
Can get very busy on the weekends, compared to the other staines on the borders. Is best allround red trail in cumbria/ borders though. Wide downhill part on south loop still needs time to bed in as there is alot of loose rocks. More videos coming this summer slat? Il show you a trick or two ;)
I enjoy it, but it is just on my doorstep. I would say definetly ride it if your near. Come up for the w/end and do whinlatter and a 7Stanes or take in sum of the lake district. Whinlatter is probably my favourite trail plus there is usually a good bit of crack (banter). It got a good write up in MBR aswell. Recommended, just dont be put offby the climbs it is meant to be a proper mountain bikers trail. If any one has any dealings with cyclewise see the irish lad, the other guy is abit arrogant.
you could stay up 1 night near winlatter then go up near the 7stanes for a few night to give you a good time 2 try all of the good ones. - Kirroughtree, dalbeattie, mabie and ae.( glentress and innerliethen are aboout 2 hours from the central stanes!
dude rode it myself lst week .cool trailwat camera do u use.cus ive put mine on you tube and its come out nowere near as clear as yours.got any advise braa.
yep not a bad line realy lots of pedal work to keep ap at speed and one or two badly set out jumps and humps in the middle ( to short )dut still lots of fun for beginers
the 1st part of it, the 2nd part of it is open in october i think, apparently its meant to have different paths leading off, one path will be easy 2nd, medium and 3rd hard. so it should be good!
what bike you got mate?

I did the north loop the week before last on a hardtail - nowhere near as fast as this descent but I smoked uphill sections!
