  • zZz. etc I've ridden all over the world - including norba DH trails. I've been to fort bill and ridden the dh track a few times - not been on the new red route yet because it was only open for a few weeks this summer.

  • Nice camera mount. How did you get rid of shaking? Is it the shock that does it?

  • because the camera is securely attached to the frame using a camera grip and the bike is full suspension, a lot of the bumps are ironed out - you can see the marzocchi forks working over time...

  • the Carron valley Development Group have spent about a year on them (search for their website on google). They are currently planning to extend the trails to be a lot harder and longer and also put a family ride in alongside the loch.

    there are trails like this all over scotland - it's well worth a visit.

All in all nice place and great trails!
