Loved watching this! Makes you realise how many awesome trails there are in SEQ! I know it's tough to squeeze everything in, but I think some of the hiddenvale tracks definitely deserve a mention, and I think the black tracks at Mt Joyce are better than Bovine Grove.
We are so incredibly lucky here in SEQ to have such amazing singletrack, most of it mere minutes away for most. I was weighing up Mt Joyce blacks and Hidden Vale blues but didn't land on them for a few reasons. A lot of what went towards the list were things like how does it hold up with the weather, accessibility, level of difficulty, etc. So settled on Bovine for the number 8 spot for a few of those reasons.
cheers for the overview, havent been out in 2 years and just doing the bike again to head out, so much good stuff around. I remember 15years back we had shit all other then daisy.
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
In my opinion, trailblazer was too rocky and unstable to ever enjoy, but since it's been redone a couple weeks back I can confidently say its one of the best trails I've ever ridden, I recommend going back soon since the rain might damage it.
I've just recently gotten into MTB. Got me a Entry level Hardtail last week & can't wait to check out all these trails!! If you're in Brisbane & you see a noob on a mint green polygon hardtail then that's me lol
Hey bro sweet vid, would you do a video on your camera setup from your chest strap, to the settings you use on your Go Pro. Keep the rad vids coming Aidan..🤙🤙
Absolutely! The more wheels we can get moving on the dirt in SEQ the better! I'm stoked to see such accessible options opening up, the latest being Powerful Howl which is crazy fun for all.
@@BicycleCurious yeah was thinking your last shuttle day at HVAP where it bucketed down. Could even be a shoot out style. So yeah eg Gap Creek v HVAP .and so on until there’s a winner
I was actually thinking of popping cheeseburger on the list! I have only rode it once so I don't know it super well unfortunately. If it was a top 10 regions list, Toowoomba would be top 5 easy.
Trailblazer is just pure SPEED! Love it. Mini mega is also a rad bit of jumps and flow. Maybe I'm just not getting the most out of it with my questionable jumping abilities. :P
AWESOME vid - would have thought Jubilee in Toowoomba rated a mention
0:26 Carnivore /Bunyaville
1:16 Kombi /Samford
2:07 Bovine Groove /Mt Joyce
3:07 Bees Knees /Sugarbag Rd
3:52 Whip Snake /Samford
4:49 Trailblazer /Tewantin
5:52 Powerful Howl /Eastern Escarp
6:56 Clear Mtn DH /Clear Mountain

9:26 Westy's /Eastern Escarp

UA-cam randomly said "watch more mtb vids" so I clicked on it and this came up.. Worth it 👍
If you ever get the chance, you've got to get to Tasmania! Unbelievable trails!
Tassie is right near the top on my bucket list, I will get down there as soon as I can. Of course, I will bring you all along for the ride!
All those trail are great but I
Reckon you missed some gap creek trail like pipeline,death adder and dingo

great video mate!!
Awesome vid & list Aidan. It gives newbies like me a good gauge for whats out there. Powerful Howl is sick! Cheers.
Cheers man, glad I'm giving you a bit of guidance around SEQ. Don't forget, we all started as newbies!

Great vid Aidan! Brilliant idea for a vid. Keep them coming! 🤘🏼certainly can’t please everyone! 😉
Cheers Jules! Top 10 lists are always a little controversial but that's the beauty of personal opinions I suppose. Looking forward to your next vid!
Im excited to go there!! Im bored of trails here in my town in the Philippines. I cant wait to go there!!
Great vid mate! I need to get up to tewantin to give those tracks a go one day
Thanks man, you have to get out to Tewantin ASAP! You won't regret it.
Just came across your channel! Great video and I’ll definitely keep these in mind when I head up from Newcastle 🤙
Welcome man, thanks for the awesome feedback! You gotta get up here when you can, some absolutely brilliant riding for our southern mates. :)
After riding through Romania foe 7 years, and buying a mtb here, can’t wait to bring my bike back to Gold Coast for some riding.
In my opinion, trailblazer was too rocky and unstable to ever enjoy, but since it's been redone a couple weeks back I can confidently say its one of the best trails I've ever ridden, I recommend going back soon since the rain might damage it.
Grate job love the video keep it up
Thanks man, new video out this Sunday! Appreciate the support. :)
I've just recently gotten into MTB. Got me a Entry level Hardtail last week & can't wait to check out all these trails!!
If you're in Brisbane & you see a noob on a mint green polygon hardtail then that's me lol
How could I miss a bright mint green hardtail! I'll keep my eyes peeled for you and welcome to the sport. Keep the rubber side down!
Hey bro sweet vid, would you do a video on your camera setup from your chest strap, to the settings you use on your Go Pro.
Keep the rad vids coming Aidan..🤙🤙
That's not a bad idea, I'll see what I can whip up in the coming weeks! Cheers for your continued support. :)
@@BicycleCurious Cheers Aidan
Rad video - we all knew Westies was the Raddest one!
Westy's rad-o-meter is off the chart, all around an amazing trail.
Thanks am new to the area ,👍🏻😀
3 out of your top 10 are adaptive friendly tracks. Sooo we need more adaptive tracks coz they’re fun for everyone? 😜
Absolutely! The more wheels we can get moving on the dirt in SEQ the better! I'm stoked to see such accessible options opening up, the latest being Powerful Howl which is crazy fun for all.
500 Above at Hidden Vale not on the list? C’mon!!
Too many good trails in SEQ! I would have actually put Skyfall before 500 Above though. :O
I’m a fan of Devine at hidden vale as well
Devine is AWESOME! Really fast on the 1st half, although I'm always plagued with bad weather whenever I hit it.
Video idea, fav destinations in say SEQ to ride. So culmination of trails etc
Great idea! Will certainly have to get out and explore each and every network before I put that together.
@@BicycleCurious yeah was thinking your last shuttle day at HVAP where it bucketed down. Could even be a shoot out style. So yeah eg Gap Creek v HVAP .and so on until there’s a winner
Castle hill has some great trails
What camera mount you use?
What's your average speed, please? Do you ever come across walkers ?
Nice one thank you mate
Nice commentary, would love to get up to QLD. I subscribed aswell.
Cheers RAW MTB! When you make your way up north give me a shout and we can go ride some bicycles. :)
What do you reckon the best trail is at gap creek?
Excluding anything super pirate, I've always been a fan of China Beach. An absolute slog to get back to the top though!
What is this bruh why is the logo like this
Should check out wiry panic at daisy hill off Ford road side.
Love Wiry Panic, been hitting that one for years. Bit of a hike there if you start at the main carpark but certainly worth the extra kms.
Wheres the clear mountain dh
Plug 'Clear Mountain' into Trailforks and that should lead you in the right direction.
@@BicycleCurious thanks bro if you ever wish to make a group riding video hit me up bro id love to come for a ride with you i live near daisy hill
Not one Toowoomba trail mate? Are you serious 🤷🏻♂️
I was actually thinking of popping cheeseburger on the list! I have only rode it once so I don't know it super well unfortunately. If it was a top 10 regions list, Toowoomba would be top 5 easy.
Only counts if you actually ride to the top first...
Yo a sugar bag trail make it 🥳🥳🥳 my local
Sugarbag is pretty underrated in my opinion, lots of fun to be had in such a small package!
Where’s the gnar?
Personally i think trailblazer should be higher.. its way better when u hit everything.. and amaizing when theres no ruts on the berms 😂
trail blazer 4 the win.. mini mega at boomers
Trailblazer is just pure SPEED! Love it. Mini mega is also a rad bit of jumps and flow. Maybe I'm just not getting the most out of it with my questionable jumping abilities. :P
