Like a good punk song - fast, stupid and over in 2 minutes. Great stuff. God that bike took some punishment though.
Just watched that, not quite as good as their earlier stuff for some reason. Or maybe I'm all jibbed out. Gotta love how fucken stoked those boys are every time one of their mates does literally anything on a bicycle.
That was good. Also props for a soundtrack where I don't have to hit the mute button a few seconds into the vid.
dammit came here to post that.
Damn. That would be epic to ride. I've never seen anything like it.Some don't like these youtube bike people, but I find this guy to be pretty good.
But the trail. Oh me, oh my.....
I rode the Ribbon back in 2009. The bottom part seems to have been re-routed or something... The feeling of speed on that top section and going as fast as you dare, and then riding through the canyons is a highlight of my riding career. Such a cool trail. Nate Hills did a great video on here too... I'll see if I can find it.Some don't like these youtube bike people, but I find this guy to be pretty good.

Lars Romig guides in his spare time... We've hired him a few times, and he's always shown us the goods. One of my best rides of all time was chasing him down Mingus Mtn. I still remember the feeling of scree falling down my neck.... #chillsdownmyspine
I've taken many routes off of Mingus, both East and West. One time we somehow managed to come out at the airport like planned, but one of my buddies got a concussion on the way down and forgot who he was for a little bit. Good times.
Those look like fun.Partly because this is filmed at my local DH tracks, Mainly because these boys rip!
and partly as it's under 3" of snow now

Yeah that's shot mainly on the IXS track at Innerleithen (Inners to locals). it was bullt a few years back for an ixs cup race and incorporates a lot of old track sections with a few newer sections thrown in to link them up/make it interesting. It's a really good mix of fast/tight with decent technicality. Best new track we've had built there in years. Ruaridh grew up ripping this hill, Mark is local to me (about 40 miles away) and Reece is pretty local too. There's always been a decent pot of talented riders local to Inners because of the tracks.
that is some quality play riding.
I didn't watch at first because I thought it was going to be a douche riding an ebike up a DH trail...
OK< Farlow is now on my must ride list. Wish I had Lenosky's moves...
Farlow / Daniel is a fun ride. It's a heck of a ride to get up there though! If that looks fun, you'd enjoy lots of other parts of Pisgah proper (Bennett, Black, Pilot), as well as Wilson Creek . . .
