2. Local trails ala cx

1. exit line of the 'Broon Troot' trail at Glentress

Riding some ace local trails in Peebles, Scottish Borders, on my cyclocross bike.

Zipping along dry dusty trails, getting a little air, attempting tricky sections and the odd rear wheel drift makes me happy.

Just me with a couple of afternoons free, an LX3, tripod and plenty of backwards and forwardsing to cobble this together.

    How many "takes" did you need to get the tree hopping bit right?

    Hi Jim. Only a few takes with the camera running to get it, but plenty of faffing and practice beforehand! Would love to be able to clean that log with a regular hop but it's an awkward 'un with a tricky run in and I don't have the skills/courage.

    I followed this link over here from AHTBM to find out who the rider was in that vid, and to say that he has insane style on the bike.

    So ya...
    dude, you'e got great style both in front of and behind the camera. Incredibly good work, really enjoyed it.

    Andy, this is great. Really slick. Nice video from the LX3, well put together, and engaging content. (I'd put a music soundtrack on it, but that's my preference.)

    It'd be great to see what footage you can get with a GoPro Hero strapped on yourself or the bike.

    If my local trails were that buff I'd ride a cx bike on them too! Excellent editing, smooth, flowing riding. Nicely done.

    Great vid. Thanks for explaining how you made it. It got me to realize, hey I have a camera and a tripod. So I went out for a ride and made some videos myself. Thanks!

    Andy, this is nice. So glad that the peace and reality of the Highlands was kept instead of a track; good call. Miss it heaps.

    You got skills Mister.

    It's great to see someone really riding their CX bike and not just using it for a part-time road bike. Sometimes, as you already know, the CX bike is the best way to ride a trail. Plus, it helps teach you to control a bike properly (unlike fullies). Great vid!
