Argghh!! 😭 I would have loved a pie! Add that to my "must do" list - thanks

@@SteveInskip no problem - I enjoyed riding them for you 😄

@@GrahamParker-o7m Thanks Graham 👍 - Tinkler Lane runs between Birstwith and Burnt Yates - just west of Ripley. There’s a full gpx in the description

Do you live in Hall Barn by any chance? There was a lady hanging out her washing there and I felt obliged to explain my weird behaviour to her (only the bits that involved riding back and forth past her garden 😊)

@@701Adventures I really enjoyed the trails - not challenging but very pleasant and quiet. All new to me - for some reason I never think of heading down that way. The pack horse bridge on Tinkler lane was a highlight

@@BikingBuddies Haha 😂 I thought that would spark memories in a certain age group. The shop keeper looked at me like I was crazy 😜

@@uphillanddowndaleThese youngsters have no idea. Thank goodness you weren’t listening to your Sony Walkman when you walked in, it would have blown the young man’s mind. 😂😂

@@701Adventures 😄👍

Yes, i thought the same 😂​@@uphillanddowndale

Too bad - but at least you have evidence of your struggle 😁 Hope you enjoyed the video

Glad you liked it. The green of the bike really seemed to pop in the low sun 👍

The pleasure was all mine - a quite ride on a sunny evening - what's not to like 😁

Also - there's a gpx in the comments if you want to try the route yourself 👍

@@uphillanddowndale I got the GPX file thanks. I'll try build it into one of my rides soon. 👍

Thanks - he may not be the best bike off-road but he's certainly one of the prettiest 😍

No - it's more of a twisty sprint but it's still good entertainment 👍

@@frankpickering3710 you’re very kind 😁👍

It was sad that I couldn't find you for a chat 😕 but I hope you enjoyed seeing yourself (fast or not). If I get to Hoghton Tower I'll keep an eye out for you and your dad 👍

If the weather is good then I'll be there 👍 I'll look out for you in the pits 😀

​@@uphillanddowndalecan the public just turn up on there own bikes and compete thanks

@@elvisthewart670 sorry - I’m nothing to do with the organisation - I just turn up and spectate. I suspect it’s a bit late to put in an entry but I’d contact the event team “Marshals North West”

@@uphillanddowndaleDid you go to Leighton hall on Sunday

@@JoeMcCoy-tg3gq I did - I found your 2 bikes in the old tennis court area but you weren't around. I'm working on the editing for the film 👍

Well the idea did come from your video so it's only fair to acknowledge that 😁 Weird that they let you know about the gate as I contacted them last year about it and got nothing! Oh well, as long as it gets opened 👍

@@uphillanddowndale The chap who called me mentioned that you had also complained about the gate but then I already knew that. Hopefully it will be resolved shortly, they’ve only had a year to deal with it. 😂

@@701Adventures 👍

Thanks - Yes, Rita behaved herself 😊👍

Thanks Robbo, I also use a handlebar mount for my regular filming - I was just exploring some alternatives. As you say the selfie-stick is too flexible for this. If you check out my other vids you’ll see that one of the great uses for the 360 is the panning shot where you place the camera at the side of the trail and you ride past. Very jealous of the X4 it’s supposed to have better quality which is where the One R can suffer. 👍

@@uphillanddowndale yes the trail side aspect is a great feature. I’m on a coast to coast ride early July so hopefully I will get some good stuff 👍🏻

👍

Sorry - it should come with a warning 😁

Hi Steve, I'm shocked you think that the stabilisation isn't good - its usually regarded as one of their best features because they fix on a horizon independently of the camera position. Take a look at the view looking rearward - even tho the camera and bike are waving up and down the horizon stays pretty fixed. I think the one area where the 360's do suffer is in image quality. You're cramming a 360 degree view into 5.7 Mp and then editing it down to just one angle and then zooming in .... not many pixels left at the final edit. 🤔

@@uphillanddowndale I am comparing it with for example the GoPro 12 which I use. I can turn that camera a complete 360 degrees and the horizontal plane stays level. Plus you then have the latest version of Hypersmooth which works brilliantly. 👍

@@701Adventures never seen the GP so I 'll take your word 👍

Thanks - It was fun to do 🙂

Don't forget to let me know when you find a new trail - I can add it to the TRF map 👍

@@uphillanddowndale definately will Stuart 👍

Good luck!

Glad you enjoyed it - if you look in the comments for all of my videos there's a map and a gpx file that you can download 👍

Ah amazing! thank you!

I did ask Pete if he needed help - honest. But, yeah, I’d rather stay dry 😅

Yeah - I should have known better given the amount of rain we'd had. Good to know I still bounce quite well 😁

Welcome! I hope you find other videos to enjoy here

It's a continuous erosion of our rights, isn't it.

I was a bit of a passenger at some points!

PS - I only have 1 camera but it's a 360 recording - ie both front and back at the same time 👍

It was a bit deep - I should have known given the amount of rain we've had but then Paul on the XT sails thru and you think "well, if he can...." 😁

@@uphillanddowndale 😂😂

Nice one Stuart. Looked like a grand day out on some really nice lanes. Thanks for posting.

Always pleased when you enjoy them 😁😁👍

Ticking all of the boxes so far 👍

Ah - the original 😁 I think the colour scheme on this is based on the KT - good luck with the resto 👍

Thankfully it's not just a pretty face 😁

You’ll have just as much fun on that Stuart, then there’s the reliability which should be most excellent 👌

Most excellent indeed, dude 😁👍

Hi Paul, thanks for that - the 360 is really easy to use as all of the work is done in post-production on the PC. The software does have switches to lock the pc view relative to the camera so I can point it to a forwards view and lock it. Even tho the camera bounces about and the bike turns it will stay locked on that forward view. It does require quite a high spec graphics machine to handle the files but apart from that it's easy. For the pans it's just a question of plonking the camera and tripod at the side of the road and riding past. Once it's captured everything I can sort out the pan on the pc. I've found the trickiest part is getting the pan to turn smoothly. The software has a facility to lock onto a target and follow it but I tend to control it manually. The big down-sides of the camera are 1. it's very vulnerable with two domed lenses sticking out - you have to factor-in a supply of lens protectors - and 2. on auto exposure it doesn't handle dark shadows very well - it goes quite grainy. I'm starting to play with the manual settings but it's not very practical to keep switching exposures as you ride. As you can see it's great on a bright sunny day 😁 and 3. altho it films at 5.7K when you finally select a small portion for your view and then zoom it in (eg for the forward facing bike view) you've reduced it down to about 1K quality. I bought the Insta360 ONE RS but if I were starting again I'd maybe look to the X3 as it's lighter and easier to mount on the bike 👍

@@uphillanddowndale Thanks Stuart - some really good tips there and lots of info. There seem to be a lost of X1 and X2 360's floating around on the used market - perhaps I might take a look at the X2 as they seem relatively inexpensive as a 'first try' option. I guess the 360 is like the drone - it's good, but due to the faffery, it has its place - hence I never really carry it on the monthly socials. Many thanks for the reply - very much appreciated.

Me too! Bring on the good weather, eh?

Fingers crossed 🤞

Thanks! Must get down to Ingleton and follow your tracks along Turbary Road as soon as the weather improves

A little more running-in and she'll be back. Got a list of new routes that need filming pinned to the side of my monitor 👍

Thanks - it's just a preview of my main videos but people do seem to like it 😁👍

The video or the bike? 😁

@@uphillanddowndale the bike but good vid too 👍🏻

Glad you liked it 😁👍

Glad you enjoyed it - if you look in the video description you'll find a link to a gpx file and a map for the full route 👍

Glad it kept you entertained 😀👍

Absolutely right - Bluecaster - enjoy 😁👍

A683 from Kirkby Stephen, then up the watery lane to Low Dovengill then right down to Bluecaster. If you look in the comments there will be a gpx file and a map attached 👍

And the tea! Don't forget the tea 😁

Thanks for the comment. Hope it helps you find the trails 👍

.

Merry Christmas to you too. Hope you get some new heated gear if you’re riding this month 😁

Yep - time to give the bike some love before we get back on the trails 👍

Indeed!

Sorry - I thought you were saying you'd followed my route - Skiplam is part of the route from Rudland Rigg back to Helmsley - just me confusing things 😁

@@uphillanddowndale sorry Stuart, I’m the one confusing things. We clearly must have done that part but just didn’t realise it🙄

😂
