Some of those trails look knarly, I'm not keen on tight trails turning around trees, but, getting out of my comfort zone is how I pushed myself years ago, maybe it's time again 😂, great video as normal once again.

Thanks Campbell. I’m exactly the same. I much prefer flow over tight gnarly turns. Every now and again it is good to test your skills. Don’t think I’ll be back for a good while tho! 🤘

I agree, I think wen you fall etc, it means you are progressing, not leaving comfort zones it tapers to a flat standard of riding, it’s fine for most people as they enjoy it anyways.. But more u ride, more u fall, more u fall the more u progress and learn to deal with those situations and also, how to fall which is all important.. Me 2, did the same years ago, just started off again, u don’t forget how to ride but it gave me a reset and and with that, better riding style.. hit it up I say man, I haven’t regretted it, I’m in late 30’s now, back to DJ urban n park riding, love ev about mtb all over again with a diff appreciation is prob way to day it, lol..

Rodeo is mental, just done it in wet AF, "that's a roller" scared the shit out of me, went around it. That was decent riding, you have to take yourself out of the comfort zone once in a while.👍👍

Thanks mate. Fair play to you mate. I would not like to do that in the wet at all. I’m just glad it was a nice dry day. I’ve got to say it’s not a place I’m in a rush to go back. It’s very technical. I truly was out my comfort zone. 👍

Wussup frm Aussie.. Don’t eat the bat? Don’t quote me on it i maybe wrong but that’s what I thought, I used to ride slopestyle DJ bikes n stuff years ago, had slopstyle bike and my SantaCruz jackal DJ bike , I’ve just hit late 30’s now, wen I seen how much EV has evolved bike and part and the sport it’s self just everything, I went grabbed me a Specialized DJ bike, my nephew is Autistic and his father wouldn’t dear get hands dirty, hadn’t been fishing and he just turned 11, I got him his 1st bike, and been autistic he will focus on 1 thing whole heartedly if he likes it, well he loved it and he was off after few weeks, I then had septic knee on rite knee and then after 8 days in Hosp i got home, and felt sick, in the other leg I had a blood clot frm groin to ankle, crashed in hosp woke in resuss bay, then woke in ICU after 13 days, just got to the point of being able to pedal cranks a whole resolution, got back on my bike and we was off, anyways I just wanted to say i liked ur honesty, wasn’t no blame game you just went n dealt with shit as it came, we liked that and it showed him it all about having fun etc etc, so if you didn’t teach us about riding, you did with being real! I just thought u should know this is what it’s about, and I appreciate it, he loves it.. So cheers man, practice is key, as it is with ev in life, it was good to see you progress also! Keep it up, thanks for the upload, and happy riding!

Hey Ryan, I can't tell you how much that means to me reading that! I'm not the best rider out there, but if I can inspire one person to get out and have fun on their bike, I'm a happy person indeed. I'm so sorry to hear of your medical problems and I hope you're feeling much better and your issues are all behind you now! That's great your nephew is now into bike riding!! 🤘🤘🤘 Tell him to get out on it as much as he can and have fun! That's what it's all about. I'm sure he'll be amazing on a bike real soon! I do apprecite your post, It means a lot. Thank you. You also get out as much as you can and have fun too, and keep practicing!! 🤘👍

You did fine mate. Aberfoyle is a real tester. I was interested to see your reaction to THAT corner on Rodeo (16:45) "Oh no, whats goin on there?" sounds about standard.

Hi Pete, you need to try some of the trails in Callander, there's a lot of great new ones since lockdown with easier red trails in the Coilhallan woods and black trails at the base of Ben ledi and the woods near Bracklinn falls. You won't be disappointed!

Ooh thanks for then heads up Cameron! We’re looking for new trails to ride now. I’m going to be doing my first Munroe in a few weeks. Possibly Vorlich. But that is weather depending. Thanks bud!🤘

Ah, Vorlich is a great hill with more tech at the top and more flowy as you progress downwards. It's a great choice for a first Munro. Thanks for responding

Good video again Peter. Man you didn't like some of those trails mate.Very challenging trails they are at times , not as enjoyable as Ballo or Pitmedden but good in the way that they certainly get your full attention 🤔😁👍
