I managed 30 seconds. I thought the idea was to NOT fall off when riding bikes
You've not had a good trailriding day, unless you've fallen off
Notice how the fallers were pissing themselves laughing at their own stupidity of a minor indisecretion

Erm, that's what UK trail riding is mainly about
Sounds good to me...... how do i get involved?
Oh Bill, it's a light hearted film showing what fun it can be............you seem to be in the minority, but never mind
I would say some were experienced on film, but some clearly weren't but had a great time
Main difference, those lanes are easy on a 250-400cc pukka bike and as Tim says, Mud/Rocks/Rivers/Ruts are what UK trails are all about - but after a while they're pretty straightforward
Johnny- I guess I didn't explain my point very well......
You've done a lot of trials, trails and other off-road stuff, so perhaps you don't see that what's in that film is just as likely to put people off as it is to encourage them to try it......IDK
@ Trippy & Mark
I think the film makes the bikes look as though they're going faster than they really are
Having ridden some of them, I doubt they are going more than 30 mph in the fast bits
Very likely.
Nothing as flattering as a wide-ish angle helmet cam for your riding ego
Add in tight and high hedges/walls and it adds a huge impression of speed.
Fekk, even I look good on helmet cam
See, we can agree from time to time

Enjoyed that. As a relative noob off road rider there wasn't anything there that I wouldn't want to tackle. I would definitely have fallen off a lot more than the blue yam though!
Was that the (lower?) ferry at Kingswear at 3:02? If so I hadn't realised there were any lanes near there. Wonder if the wife would mind me taking my bike next time we're down there....
Awww don't be sensitive JB......I agree with you often, but neither of us are sycophants so we don't pipe up and say 'yeah, he's right'
