LETS SEE YOUR RIDE FOOTAGE

[Bones]

Here's a gruelling ride for you.

 

[Tubby G]

Still getting to grips with the GoPro and LumaFusion but it’s keeping me busy whilst I can’t ride with these slow healing broken bones

Following my other half around on the trails isn’t easy, so we tend to find simple loops where I can walk around finding different locations to film from. Yesterday’s trip to Leeds Urban Bike Park blue trail is an example. Enjoy!

Bolt's Law with the EMTB crew from yesterday...

Enjoyed that Tony ..(apart from the bits with me on it !)..
I think you showcased the ride very well and its a pity it started to rain with no footage of the Bolts Law descent ..but nice one all the same ..?

Bones ..I wouldnt be too hard on yourself regarding that rocky descent ..I felt the same way a few years back on normal bikes ( Santa Nomad) having had a few dabs myself ..while my mate ( Ian Bell ) danced across the bloody lot !
Although it looks steep on your camera it still doesnt do it justice to exactly how steep !
Nice vid .

Cheers for that ? I did the ride years ago on my 26"er and about 3 years ago. It's supposed to get easier ?

We’ve done that Gunnerside Gill route from Dales Bike Centre. Didn’t enjoy it one bit. Lovely scenery, but absolutely brutal climbs, knee deep in peaty bogs and that descent is either a choice of taking it fast and clinging on for dear life, or take it easy but slip & slide over all the loose rock debris. The only thing we enjoyed was the food at the cafe at the end ?

Assuming all goes well youtube side my sunday ride should appear here at some point...

 

[Zimmerframe]

Neat little flow link line in leogang. I’ll try to make a cool vid of the legit shit later. Sped up 2 boring parts.

Which bits were speeded up, difficult to tell with the way yall speak

Nice moves bam ! pretty fly for a fat dude ! ??? and just the right length video for show us your ride footage .. not your whole life .. I have a short attention span !

 

[IndigoUnicorn]

Hey, guys, could I get some vid critique from you?

Nope, not my eMTB but on my tourer. I wanted to show 5 hours of riding the Grand Canyon in a short vid, I think I did ok, but some quality feedback would be invaluable.

that’s just the style I enjoy. Music (important!), nice blurry transitions, a dreamy atmosphere

you’re riding on the wrong side of the road though!! Very dangerous ?

 

[Zimmerframe]

That was crap ! Not really.

Like the upbeat music and the short format. It made it a fun little video which could have been painfully boring with a lot of very similar scenario. That fact that you managed to ride with a pile of grapes balanced in a stack on your handlebars was even more impressive.

Only negative from me would be that the final shot didn't quite capture that Oohh la la wow factor as you look over, but they've probably made it all a lot safer and harder to get to the fall to your death spots since I was last there.

On behalf of bambam, I'm sure he's very disappointed there wasn't an attractive man in a string vest as the thumb nail shot/clickbait.

 

[Zimmerframe]

@Zimmerframe
I edited so all could see the moment I laid eyes on you.

I've watched it twice and couldn't see that bit - only the bit at the start where you saw your own shadow ! ?

 

[Gary]

I liked it.
Maybe it's my tired eyes but I think it would be more pleasant to watch if the blur transitions between each clip could be made to be much quicker/shorter

Good point, I did start to have several panic attacks each time that went on and I wondered if I was going to come out of the other side.

 

[IndigoUnicorn]

Thanks for the feedback, all!

I think I may do a different edit with a similar (but perhaps a mite longer) music track. And, yes, I’ll shorten the transitions, for sure!

Also, I LMAO at the stacked grapes comment.

Those spots still exist. The Park averages about 7 rescues a WEEK from idiots falling off the edge. In my case, the really wow overlooks were either a. Too crowded with maskless fuckwits or, b. I couldn’t ride right up to the wow spot.

Do you have a map or gpx file of this route, please?

There is a link on the video if you watch it on YouTube. Google Cycle the dales, the edge.

Yep. Blew a pedal on these teeny weenies.

gotta buy my new drink View attachment 68986

Looks like you were back up quite sharpish so hopefully not to broken, thumbs on the vid as a get well soon if not

 

[Zimmerframe]

Just damaged ego.

Don't worry, yours is so big I'm sure it hardly made a dent !

 

[RustyMTB]

I enjoy reading Bam's priapic flights of fancy & live in hope this will translate one day into jackpot video gold in this thread.

So today's one didn't quite go to plan. I wanted to go to wharncliffe so that's what i had planned to do. 2 of my riding buddies came along but somewhere along the way wires must have got crossed. We ended up starting at grenoside which i wasn't all that bothered about and when we did get down to wharncliffe they complained about the first trail we did and how they had to go so far for it and then how much of a way it was back up. so after a failed attempt to find a specific trail (which name i don't know) they decided to call it quits and walked back up to the fire road.

Since i was committed to actually seeing what was about i kept going and explored a bit more, finding some of the cool trails that i knew existed but didn't know where to find them. So ultimately not too much footage and a lot of it with me being a chicken and not wanting to take any risks. What really stood out to me in person is how little any of these videos give any real perspective of how big or steep a lot of these trails are. Next time i'd do the big rock roll in but with my sag as it was and a low bottom bracket i'm almost certainly scraping the motor bash guard going over without some proper technique to pitch the bike in (without rolling over the bars to my death)

Day in general: 5/10
Trail Quality: 8/10 would go again.
