Helmet cam from the Spooky Wood section of Glentress' red route. See http://www.mountainbikerides.co.uk for high resolution version and more mountain bike videos.
I'll just say cracking video mate.Thanx for sharing it,cos no matter how fast or slow people ride Spooky Woods.They all finish it with a big smile cos its SOOOOO much fun.Happy happy memories
laughing at all the comments. I'm assuming everyone thinks they're Steve Peat on here.
Yes it must be frustrating to get stuck behind someone but there are plenty of passing places at GT where corners have been cut.
Everyone rides to their abilities. Its all about getting down safe. Riding down through Spooky Wood I remember thinking 'I bet theres some serious injuries here week in and week out'
This is an awesome trail, i really enjoyed it, first time i ever went up glentress we rode this run first. i hired an orange ST4 as i no longer have a proper MTB. This is because round my area i don't get the use, so i do DJ/Street riding now.
Drop your saddle a bit, stand up, and let the brakes go abit.
Dropping the saddle makes the bike easier to manoeuvre.
Standing up corrects your balance, allowing you to go faster.
Just done this today, first time i've been on a bike since 1992, I was a bit slow but thats to be expected, I really enjoyed it and look forward to going back in a few weeks time
nice vid but but seen more air at a vertigo convention, I thought I lacked confidence for years of not bikng but fuck me, id ride you and your ,missus over that trail

Letting the brakes go, well, thats obvious.
But still, good video dude!
