    That big 180 is like a wall of death, you are just glued to it when speeding around it. Such a blast.

    My favourite downhill trails, very fast, a good all weather surface and not really technical. The climb up without a motor is a pain going the direct route. I tend to go via the Verderers trail which goes past the top of the downhill start, longer but more interesting.

    Did these a couple of weeks ago on my HT Voodoo bizango. Its really not fun having to push up so my son didnt fancy doing it again. E-bike inbound!

      I’ve taken my bizango pro down these before and it was awesome fun (but the ebike is soooo much easier for that push up track)😅

    Yet another BRILLAINT video and your content ceases to amaze me, Good Sir. 🤩 You are an inspiration and an absolute LEGEND! 🙌🏼 I love the Forest of Dean so Much, I'm now honoured to be a Dean Trail Volunteer, and it's AMAZING seeing how these trails are maintained with DTV and Forestry England, and the amount of care that goes into creating, and maintaining them. 🥹 Thank you for this video, and Happy Trails, my friend. 🤙🏼

    They are great trails. I always use them as a warm up run before riding anything more serious.

    It's such a cool trail. Another thing to try is top to bottom with no pedalling. Theres enough rollers to keep pumping to keep your speed and its just a matter of choosing which to pump and which to jump.
    Love your vids dude and they've helped me out lots in the past on choosing where to ride.🤘

      Thanks mate that’s awesome, i’m really glad you like the vids! I love the idea of the no pedal ride. I’m definitely going to give that a go!
