Glasgow from a rider's viewpoint

[DoogieTalons]

Just started biking the Canal paths down to Bowler and back... didn't know Glasgow could be so exciting as this.

[TheSquire1888]

hey mate nice video ive bought a carrera vengence ultimate do you think that it could handle stuff like this ?

[teebarn]

@TheSquire1888 Yeah, it'll handle it, as long as you learn to ride smoothly and land right. Good luck with it... You'll soon be fully hooked, no doubt about that! Regards form MexicoMTB . com

[iannowacki]

makes me want a full suspension bike!

[teebarn]

@iannowacki Perhaps so, but a good hardtail will easy handle everything you see in this vid, and probably be more fun too!

[atalayapark]

not bad mate, fuck the haters on this video you don't get better by sitting on your arse like them :)

[teebarn]

@atalayapark Hehehe exactly! It always amazes me how many people must just spend their time writing hate-comments on vids on youtube...

[doubledunter]

google "mountainbike glasgow meetup" we'll show you the hidden trails at Mugdock

[w33markyb0y]

that is the worst video ever

[teebarn]

@w33markyb0y It's not the best of vids but compare this to ten minutes of shaky, boring footage uploaded from people's mobiles and I'd say this is better to watch... but each to their own.

[irockcom12]

ur ultra insanley shite u ass hole

[teebarn]

@irockcom12 Get a life, pal.

[sdeary1]

love riding at pollok park but the damn dog walkers are ruining the course, they've got the whole park and bellahouston park and yet they still feel the need to walk their dogs on the course

[MrGovnor]

[ashakayla]

[teebarn]

@ashakayla Yep, I know, didn't say they couldn't...

[Husk1993]

Go to caron valley and get that bike muddy xD

[teebarn]

@Husk1993 Aye, been there, done that... and much more! Definitely good advice though!

[Sophaayx]

glasgooow <3 gd ridin :)

[kengcarson]

Very enjoyable vid to watch, good music, nice layout, and balance of stills vs footage. Clever camera motion following the bikes on the move.

Cheers.

[FaintWhispers08]

Very good :) you should do a video on Motherwell ;)

[pjm600]

Nice riding, but i dont think gee atherton has much to worry about yet!

[DHmountainbikin]

m8 why do u have such a big bike for what ur doing only a few of the higs uv done are worth havin that size of bike mean at 1:37 why bother videoin it lol anyway big up mountain bikin !!!

[teebarn]

Hehe yeah fair do´s. I´d pretty much only just bought that bike at that point though, just getting used to it.

[calum1more]

Nice vid guys

ma local trails around livingston are quite similar. The stair drops and wall drops in ur vid are similar 2 some around livi.

[paulsviplist]

I like the steps.

[M4RT1N82]

Was that the old SPL Building? Bought by Anna Ryder Richardson? Near Park Circus?

[Thumbface]

Nice vid!!

[duggyallan]

Mugdock is pretty good for trails, i live just down from it in milngavie and go up a lot.

[Baumschul]

i like the video ;)

[AndyMarshall007]

Yass Av Done Most Ov The Stuff these Guys Have Dun =D

[GT7278]

You couldn't tell me any decent trails in the west end? I heard something about ruchill park. pollock park is a bit tricky to get to on bike

[teebarn]

If you want to go to Pollock Park then pop yourself and your bike on a train if you don´t want to bike it. Otherwise Mugdock just past Milngavie is one of the best bets.

[GlasgowAssassin]

Nice vid lads,I ride at some nice ground near anniesland,but at Murdoch in Milgnavie there is some nice fast singletrack an a fair bit of down hill.Hope too see u guys there someday.

[dudinator]

dude that was cool, i have done some of the red 7stanes tracks and was wonderin what the red circuit at Pollok Country Park was like

[teebarn]

Cheers. If you go to my username (teebarn) you'll find my wee vid for Pollock Park. I'm afraid I'm not a great fan of the trails there but I suppose they're worth doing. Good of the council to put them there like! Enjoy.

[twinv8]

nice video i live in glasgow and i dirtjump does anybody know any good jumping spots?

[twinv8]

good video i live in glasgow and i dirtjump does anybody know any good dirjumping spots?

[shettlestonman]

where are the stairs at the start of the flim and are they easy to ride ??? lol

[teebarn]

One end of Kelvingrove Park - from Park Circus downwards (in the direction of towards Sauchiehall St.) Surprisingly easy to ride...

[petec91]

were is the downhill section of this at 1:44? It looks like the botanical gardens.

[teebarn]

It's going down towards the River Kelvin, pretty near the Botanic Gardens. Take the road off Queen Margaret Drive which runs parallel to the river, then follow the path on the other side of the fence for a few hundred metres. It's a short but fun section!
