Grabbing Lunch and Experiencing Highlife - Toowoomba Shuttles
I've been finding myself at Toowoomba quite often in the past few months, whether that's racing, shuttling, jumping or just socially. It's a great bit of country!
At the start of 2024 the lads and I head out for another shuttle session with Frenzy MTB (link below) to explore the recent works by TMTB and Trailworx, including the fantastic new additional to the park - Highlife.
Stay tunes right until the end for a few small announcements!

Mt Cotton is Open and Scarier than Ever!
Awesome 👌
Fantastic 👍👍❤️
Finally got out there today and I bloody loved cotton canyon that trail is sick and piccabeen, powerful owl of course but I think I like the flowy cross country stuff most did shenanigans, soil there feels so sketchy when it’s dry n dusty, good vid 🤙
It's all pretty good at Gap Creek, but I completely hate that everything is flow now. I *HATE* flow trails. They're a shit to climb, they flatter you into thinking you're a better rider than you are, as they don't feel all that challenging. Conversely, I also hate all the jumps they've added. Us mediocre riders would prefer them not to be there. Bring back tech and chunk. Rant over.
If you still have rack, would be interested to read a 3yr update (June 2024). I bought one thinking it would adapt to 1 1/4" and 2" receivers, but only fits one size-ending up returning but would like to buy again. Thanks for review.
What's your average speed, please? Do you ever come across walkers ?
the go pro expert on angles
This looks so fun. How difficult would it be for a complete beginner though?.... We're keen to try one day!
Think I saw a nose hair at 0.07! Unbelievable flow on those trails.
Don't worry there are plenty up there!
How to get your vidéo to You Tube in 4k?
Super cool, Aiden nice bit of everything at Toowoomba will put it on the to do list ❤
Some of the best riding in all of SEQ but still such a sleeper.
Where’s that castle hill or?
Uki MTB Park in NSW!
Welcome back Aiden been a while between your vlogs. Are you using new equipment to record your videos the picture quality is absolutely amazing.
Thanks Kev, been just a touch busy (which is good)! I'm running the same gear but maybe your internet got faster and it's playing in 4K 60fps now.
do you still recommend this after these few years?
100% - There does seem to be a shift towards vertical racks in the past few months (at least in Aus) but I feel a hitch rack such as this is still the go for 1-2 bikes. The rack hasn't missed a beat so far and I'm glad I spent the cash on it!
@@BicycleCurious awesome I just got mine today and I already love it and the ease of use. Do you leave your on all the time or take off etc?
There was a time when it was on the car full time, which worked pretty well with the custom light/plate bar I have installed. I've now got a bit of extra secure space so I remove it when not in use. It did get a bit annoying with access to the boot, although it might not be as bad for a traditional upwards opening boot door.
@@BicycleCurious no rust or anything - hows the plastic holding up?
No rust that I can see and everything still operates as expected. The plastic is good as well, not that there is much plastic to begin with. Only really the wheel wells, they are dirty but otherwise no dramas.
Any bike rentals out in the area. I’ll be in the area in September from the USA and would love to ride these trails!
That's a good question! The only one I know of personally is Just Ride in Nerang but that's a good hour up the road. Google did bring up a few results but can't speak to those businesses and their products unfortunately.
I found northern river cycles, but I don’t know how far from uki trails are. Thanks for the response🤟
@@ridedirtymtb9938 About half an hour by car, not a bad option. They look legit. Also half an hour out from duck creek as well.
Great to see what's to expect before heading the trails, always enjoy your chill behind the camera.
Ffs pick a gear hahaha
All those trail are great but I Reckon you missed some gap creek trail like pipeline,death adder and dingo
For the price it should have lights on it and plate holder. Lights are an absolute must if you want to use bike covers, because the vehicle's taillights are completely hidden in that case. Almost every vid I've seen on this rack no one mentions that the rear tire straps can be taken out and put back into a different slot, essentially extending their length, in order to accommodate fatter tires.
Personally i think trailblazer should be higher.. its way better when u hit everything.. and amaizing when theres no ruts on the berms 😂
hit it tomorrow after the rain we have had
Tough install for heavy e-bikes.
Stay curious mate! Love watching your videos, you were ripping in on the big bike 👌 Next trip there, both of us should hit orchys for the first time I reckon
Complete set of wankers
Mad watch lad 🔥
Killer production on this one Aiden. What a great watch from start to finish! So many funny moments and plenty of good memories with the lads. We need to do this again soon! 🔥 #bignutsmacadamiafarm
Sorry about the wind noise on the Dad Cam, I'm a professional and forgot to attach a boom & dead cat. xd
oh my this whole video was so good hahahaha love the Jack Attenborough and then some hahahaha this was mint!

wish we got this on film!!! @@BicycleCurious
I know that trail!! I live down the road to it
Rockhampton is central qld
im only newish to mtb riding but ive been to samford and kombi was the best ride ive ever had!! it was the moment when cornering clicked for me and i feel so much more comfortable cornering since. Im so lucky that it clicked only 2 month-ish into riding. best experice ever minus the climbs xD
Happy birthday for that day man!! And woweee look at you shredding on that big rig. Might be time do you to get that big pickle bike!
Happy Birthday mate, maybe a new bike soon!
Might be time for and enduro rig Aidan. Crushing those jumps dude. I definitely need to get back to boomers. Great vid and happy birthday from whenever 👊🏼
Happy birthday! Great video!
Looking like a natural on the bigger bike mate, making them jumps look small 🤙
Sweet video dude. Good to see you on the big bike. Clearing the junps with ease. I guess it might be time for that Enduro bike hey
It’s looking like DH curious is thinking about getting a bigger rig. Just do it🎉
Happy birthday (for whenever this was shot). Great way to spend it. And feels like you're the one giving us the gift of a new 'Curious' vid. Thanks!
Yay, your back really missed your videos. can't wait for more! Great riding ❤
finally MR CURIOUS has returned! and hes more bicycle curious then ever in this vid! bloody good riding mate!
With the 1 1/4 to 2” adapter it reduces the tongue weight capacity by 50% fyi
Went there yesterday, such a good place even tho the trek up is a while it’s definitely worth it and no one was there aswell
AWESOME vid - would have thought Jubilee in Toowoomba rated a mention
I’m from Rockhampton
Thanks bigdog
what street is that?
The entrance is at the top of Border Drive North
Hey mate did you use a chest mount for this vid just wandering because I have a GoPro and I like the angle
It's a fantastic angle for sure, it's actually on the chin piece of my full face helmet. With an old GoPro mount, some zip ties and mounted upside down. Highly recommended!
They have stuffed up black with putting in gaps and messing up the lip!
Nice riding man . I like your videos.
