Really happy with how it fits goes a 12 shows the tush that lots of power in there good pockets for the telepathic Communications device uh knee pads fit under lovely nice nice uh strip typ at the bottom Happy Days Kenny G oh is that
A here we are top of the trail there’s a trail I know the trail that goes that way and to the right there there and then yesterday I followed Chris down this one on the left and I really didn’t know where I was going so today the aim
Is to learn this truck on the left to do some more testing tomorrow so yeah we got the crypto towels front and rear GT Fury size large rental handlebars and uh yeah she’s ready to rip where are we actually yeah where are we tell the viewers Where We Are we at
My local and colums we’re in Russ D Northern Ireland myself and Jacob Dixon grew up riding these Trails it’s my local there about six or seven tracks five or six and they’re all pretty fun so and especially the one we’re doing today is good crack yeah you know where
You’re going and um it was quite I had no idea where I was going yesterday so I’m going to learn it and then we’ll uh ride it more tomorrow go then Chris let’s have a look remember I don’t know where I’m going oh this is off like almost need to walk the Trap
Woohoo oh that was a bit of a gap at the bottom there is it cool so we go run one there yeah so that’s the first run done um I followed Chris for the first 10 seconds and obviously this is his back Garden so then I couldn’t follow anymore
So think I might do a run on my own so I can try and learn it for myself a bit but um it’s a good track it’s quite rough not rough like flat out breaking bump rough but just quite like lumpy so see how it goes right run three like I
Said before just trying to find a bit of a floor down here cuz it’s quite a tricky little Tru so we again awward little corner oh I missed that line we go getting better a couple little things to remember but uh yeah run three piecing it together a bit better each time so
I’m happy with that so far probably do maybe eight runs today after the gym this morning it’ll be a good day run six let’s go [Applause] oh good Mo wooo Oh yeah actually felt some good flow that time changed uh another lineer to then give me a better line into the next section like I’m just uh waffling but no it’s getting better so that was run six couple more laps and then call it a [Applause] day room seven just started ruing a

Just destroyed all the local boys bins runs on stravaπ π different level altogether.
Another great installment β³
that was insane! π the warm up run down bins 1.5 was miles faster than I've ever been down it never mind the speed of the later runs π Brilliant footage to see! Chris following at the end was mental! π
Danny the Irish boy sending it on that neat track with his lads π

Wow Danny. You got permits for those guns mate. Arms are massive π. Absoutely destroying that track. Hey. So what are your thoughts on the men pulling out of the crankworks slopestyle event this past Saturday ? The girls stepped up and sent it anyway. Also Got you as my #1 menβs racer on my pinkbike DH fantasy league. You and Rachel are my 2 big ticket racers.
Chris got the goat for a team mate, LFG HART!!
Loved that: a good βun! π
I really dig that orange to yellow fade on your bike. It's cheerful to look at.
