    My wife and i done some of the walking trails near here and we stayed it betws y-coed. It really is a spectacular place. I plan on returning with my pipedream moxie sometime in the new year. 🤘

    Amazing video, I'm only about 20ish miles from here. Just waiting for my Specialized Enduro to be delivered, then I'll be heading up there.

    Oh my what a trail !!! We were due to to it in December just gone but ran out of time. It's high on the list now. Another quality production. The 905 will love it there

    • @UPHILLPHILL
      @UPHILLPHILL  Рік тому

      This is one of my absolute favourites, it’s got everything! I particularly love the technical climbs🤪. And yes, the 905 will excel here 👍. Thanks for watching 🤜🤛

    Used to come here all the time as a teenager, now in my 30s and went back last year with my lad and his school and I had forgotten how steep the climbs were 😂, fair play to you for getting up them on a normal bike!

      Cheers Ant👍. It’s such a lush place and so good that you can share your experiences with your lad, it’s exactly how my Dad introduced me to the mountains and I’ve been in love with them ever since. Thanks for watching dude🤜🤛🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿✊

    I'm lucky enough to live just 20 miles away from here. Only just started on a mtb and done the bach trail as my first trail. Absolutely loved it and hopefully be back there this weekend for the full trail.

      You’re very lucky indeed ✊. I absolutely love Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 in so many ways. You really do have the ultimate playground at your doorstep, enjoy and thanks so much for watching & commenting. Stay safe and shred well 🤜🤛

      Thanks so much, you’ll have a fantastic day, take plenty of water + add electrolytes and some trail snacks, there’s plenty of climbing and some epic DH’s to make it all worth it & the weather looks like it’ll be great for you. Enjoy and thanks for watching 🤜🤛

    I like North Wales but its nothing compared to Colorado mountain biking and California. I lived in Colorado in Vail for fourteen years purely to ride DH mountain biking trails. If you want to explore your boundaries of riding then widen your horizons and you will progress your skills like never before. I enjoyed your video as I am in town wanting to ride. so thanks for your time on showing these trails.

    • @UPHILLPHILL

      Thanks for watching Craig, I very much appreciate it and I’m sure Colorado and California are epic in every way, however, with my limited resources/time at the moment and Wales being on my doorstep, I consider myself extremely fortunate to have such an incredible place to ride. The Gwydir forest is amazing but if you prefer more extreme trails, you should check out the Dyfi forest and my videos hopefully will give you some inspiration. Thanks again 🤜🤛.

      Muchas gracias 👍. Gales es uno de los lugares más asombrosos para el ciclismo de montaña en el planeta. Recomiendo encarecidamente tener unas vacaciones allí cuando puedas. Tuve una semana de paseos épicos, así que sigue viendo más videos pronto.

    Is this do’able without navigating a GPX file (i.e well sign posted enough?)
    I’ve got an apple watch so would be handy to be able to glance at it see if im on course etc

    • @UPHILLPHILL
      @UPHILLPHILL  Рік тому +1

      Yes, absolutely. This was my first outing with the Garmin and wanted to see how accurate it was. The trails have good signage but for peace of mind I always take a photo of the full trail map as a “just in case” back up😉.
