Absolute beginner having fun on his new MTB, learning from scratch.
I am not in shape and I've got no technique whatsoever, so you won't find any shredding or pro level stuff here.
I am in my 40s, and up until the day I started mountain biking in July 2023, I was a pure couch potato. Since then, for me, every ride is a victory!

How NOT to MTB - in one minute
Not my brightest hour. I mean, minute. Not my brightest minute.
When your thoughts are dwelling on something else and you can't focus on what you're doing - DON'T BIKE!

Slovenia - MTB park Jamnica (with crash)
Переглядів 1092 місяці тому
How I wish that I could produce a video that faithfully represented the incredible 3 days that I spent biking in Jamnica. Single trail park Jamnica is made up of a genuine labyrinth of hand built trails in a place of incredible beauty. I can't tell how many times I've climbed and descended that mountain, taking on a different and harder trail each time, and being surprised by the natural beauty...
Slovenia - Black Hole Trail
Переглядів 882 місяці тому
I was not prepared! Make no mistake: the Black Hole Trail is not a gimmick, it's not a tourist trap, it's not a deceitful ad. The Black Hole Trail is something EXTREME. Forget black and double-black graded trails and the like - this place is its own thing. I was not prepared, and neither was anyone else in my group. The footage I ended up with is pretty bad. The camera got pushed down a bit, pr...
Slovenia - Vintgar Gorge
Переглядів 2682 місяці тому
A walk along Vintgar Gorge is not something that you can describe, not in any amount of words, not in any language. No picture or video can ever truly depict the beauty of this place. You simply have to experience it through your own eyes.
Slovenia - Gliding over Bohinj
Переглядів 362 місяці тому
Paragliding over the stunning Lake Bohinj. Clouds wouldn't clear over the preferred take-off point, so we had to start from the opposite side of the lake. It was a bit overcast as well, but still an incredible ride. The weather completely cleared about an hour after landing, so there were perfect conditions for a sightseeing hike and swim around the lake - video is coming later.

Setting up base in Bled for a few days. Strolling around to see if I can find out where the fairies live.

I was aiming for one last short ride at the end of the day. I got pranked. It was not short. It was not easy. But it was worth it.
Slovenia - Sweat. Eat. Dance. Sleep. Repeat.
Переглядів 292 місяці тому
Almost 2 weeks in, and my vacation in Slovenia has been truly amazing so far. This is my routine now. Get up. Set sights on a beautiful location. Go out there and be physically active the whole day doing whatever makes sense that day. Burn through all my strength until my body hates me. Eat. Soak in the culture. A feast for the body. A feast for the senses. A feast for the mind. Go to sleep. Wa...
Slovenia - Bike tour to Vršič Pass
Переглядів 402 місяці тому
A ride up to the summit at Vršič. Traffic was cow-otic at times. The gopro app is absolutely horrible at handling recordings more than just a couple of hours long, and simply refuses to create my video. This video is a result of what I could do with a sneaky getaround on my phone, so the image quality is lower, the music is slightly off, and the video cuts short a bit too early. I'll upload a p...

A super chill kayaking session along the Soča with breathtaking views. Only one casualty was reported flipping over, and sadly it was out of camera reach.
Slovenia - Flying over Bovec

I never thought I would one day end up doing this, but as it turned out, the airfield was right there, the opportunity presented itself, and I couldn't think of a better place in the whole world to try it for the first time. I just had to. Absolutely incredible experience!

I like Bike..
poor you mate, when i fall on a bike i get soo much adrenalin and if i would fall twice in a minute il had to fight with my anger, il take my advice as you say
ouf thats rough
theres a track for a reason
Well now it's starting to make sense
Second crash was just unlucky. I'm assuming you hit that tree stump with ur pedal. Keep going!
Spot on. The second crash was the pedal hugging the tree stump and staying there. The first one was carelessness - my eyes were already set way ahead on the next curve ahead of me, and I didn't realise that underneath me my front wheel was already going over the berm separator
That sigh!
You have some balance issues mate, work on proper position on a bike, check if your bike is not to large.
Slovenija ❤❤❤
🇦🇱
Definitely lower your seat way down, and when going down these features stand up
Stopie tailwhip, good try XD. hope you're alright.
try driving with your sattle down and lean more back to prevent that
Bro is the definition of "all the gear, no idea" 💀
Sounds accurate! 👌

Nice
Does this bike have ratchet 370 hub or is it pawls?
