UK’s Rawest MTB Trails?! | South Wales Off-Piste Road Gap Send

South Wales Off-Piste MTB | Risca Tech Trails & Road Gap Send!
First time at Risca, and wow… these hidden off-piste trails are some of the most technical I’ve ever ridden. Riding with friends, we explored raw, steep, rocky South Wales single-track — and sent a road gap for the first time 😅
I brought out the 2024 Specialized Kenevo in Rustwood Red (no setup changes this time), and tested myself against techy, natural lines far different from the bike park flow. Risca is raw, playful, and full of surprises — the perfect place for progression.

Oh, you got to try and stop. This is the way, isn’t it? Yeah. Oh, here we go. Here she is. A Well done, mate. Yes, welcome back. Good morning and a bloody good day to you. Today we are back with another video. And today I am super excited because we are riding a very secret, very hidden bike park. It’s not an official bike park, but it definitely from what it looks like, it deserves a spot on the map. We’re at beautiful Riska in South Wales. So, I’m linking up with a couple of pals who actually have been here before and they’re going to show me the ropes. The trails look absolutely immense and it’s just a local dig crew that’s done these trails on the mountain. So, I’m really excited to try to try them out, have a look around and see what’s what. I think it’s about five or six of us today. So, it’s going to be a pretty cool good ride out and I’m super excited for it. So, stay tuned. Let’s sus the place out and watch the outcome all unfold. I think that makes sense. So, yeah, we’re going to get kitted up. We’re going to meet the meet the boys and going to get up the mountain and see what’s what. So, stay tuned. Ah, it’s not for us. I did wonder. What’s a cow doing you? Oh god. Oh. Oh. Oh, don’t feel better. Oh. I go back. You don’t catch me. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. Heat. Heat. That would be great. Wow. You left. Heat. Heat. Course that was [ __ ] Well, I came over the plop [ __ ] trying to keep up with him. [ __ ] straight into the stump. Right. might landed up against the stump. I went over it. You hold on to it. You a [Applause] You’ve done it before. So once. Yeah. My way down. More than us. once more than I let you go. Who wants to go? You got m Wow. Wow. Guess I’m a lock then. If there was a BM there. Yeah. Lot of [ __ ] sandbags. You can tell the water’s just gone straight across the full sandbag, isn’t it? I don’t mind. It’s just making sure you pull up on the rock. It is. I think it’s doable. Just got to get the the line in like right above your foot. Going for it. Yeah, but then you got to try and stop. Get the phones out. It might be 250 quid, but I know it’s [ __ ] So if I go off there, you’ll go off there. That’s the deal, is it? Speed the corner afterwards. Like there is no No, I know. That’s why they’re there. They’re going to stop us. Yeah, we go. How scan is it? That’s all right. It’s all right. I got on mine. I’ll send it to you. Yeah, that’s right. That is Yeah, it actually did look comfortable. Yeah, it’s all right. Nice. That’s right. Well done. Wow. [Laughter] Shoot. We going down this way. Yeah. It’s like a No. She got [Applause] a little. Ah, okay. Yeah, this looks all right. It’s a little pot. It’s nice, isn’t it? Fair play. It’s solid, man. Isn’t it? Yeah. It’s pretty well. Good build. Like, this is it. Yeah. Ready? Yeah. All right, let’s go. You could go like [ __ ] double the distance on that, couldn’t you? You go double the distance. Oh, yeah. If you didn’t break, that would be horrible. Have a look at the rock. Oh [ __ ] Number one there. Give us a little hit. Does that look like what? just lands for a nice uh slow. Yeah. That’s the only thing about doing things blind. You went really far left. I I almost missed it. I almost feel like it landed the other side of the burn. It probably did. [ __ ] Let me have it. Stop. Oh, here we go. Here she is. Yeah, that’s nice. Very nice. Very nice. Very good. That’s bigger than what I seen in pictures. No. Solid as well. Yeah. I even thought of a drainage system like no pulled up that fancy looks right. Right then. All right. Yeah, he went really far right. You don’t want to be tagging one of those trees, do you? Like even if No, you got to go really far left to head to the stump. So like Ready? Yeah. Let’s go. Wow, that is slow. I went massive on that. Well done, mate. How do you feel? Sick. I think I went quite deep. I went deep as well. Rush. It’s what we chase. Okay, let’s go. [Applause] I’m going to go back where you are and probably hit the last one. Get this bottom jumper. A Okay, let’s hit that. Let’s do it. Let’s get all done. Honestly, it’s that BM just kicked you out wide right and you’re just aiming for the tree and I was looking from back behind him but there and when he took off could have swore he’s going to clip this tree landing Yeah. Yeah. Heat. Heat. Wow. [Applause] I’m [ __ ] Heat. Heat. [ __ ] heat. All right. I’ve got souls cuz I’m way gone trying to find my way back home. Count my bones as all of my stone. Rock bottom make the man and some pressure make a gemstone. Trying to put a dollar to my name like Quo.
