  • So myself and Old Skool Legend Steve Geal with the recent bad weather went and checked out the new skills area along with riding some more delights that Swinley Bike Hub has to offer due to its well maintained purpose built MTB Trail network.
    Great Day please bear in mind you need to be a member to ride the skills area (The Summit)

    I rode at Hawley trails a lot in my mid teens. Met quite a few pro riders including gilly. He was an inspiration and a true gent. Mtb and bmx pros are the role models and influences kids like me needed. Keep on keeping on boys. Respect.

    Never thought i'd see Swinley through your eyes first... i was meant to go there last year but had to duck out due to injury. now it's on my 2020 to do list. I'll be studying this video for weeks to get the Deaks line :)

    • @BenDeakinMTB
      @BenDeakinMTB  4 роки тому +2

      Unfortunately that is correct, how ever you do get your monies worth with the coaching sessions that they provide, Its a way of managing risk which was put by the Swinley estate but those guys can obviously give you more information, There is more stuff to ride outside of the Skills area though. 😜

    • @bfbjock

    • @tyler_bt3326
      @tyler_bt3326 4 роки тому

      To be fair, you did used to be able to just run it on days when it was “closed” not really anyone to stop you. It was a stupid idea though and people kept underestimating the trails, injuring themselves and now they’re blocked off by those metal bars when not in use. Moral of the story; ride within your limits xD

      Just a heads up, for the Progression area (Bike park), there is a year fee you have to pay to access it, it's tiered depending on the amount you ride there. All on the website.

      It’s not the size of the jump it’s the run in for the 40 footer doesn’t work as you can’t get the speed, Tom who I followed in has tried a number of times and that’s a guy who does the Dark fest 90 foot jump. 🤷‍♂️

    @paulfleming912 4 роки тому

    It really annoys me when people take the piss out of beginners. We were all there once. I would have thought that a sponsored rider would at least pretend to be a better ambassador for the sport. It's the same when pros turn up to little races and complain about catching people in practice. It's just uncool (in the kindest of words).

    • @BenDeakinMTB
      @BenDeakinMTB  4 роки тому +6

      Hi Paul,
      Just to make it clear, which I guess I didn’t, I was a former Royal Marine Commando and the Gurkhas are a Nepalese Natives recruited for the British Army and it was an in house joke not to be taken seriously for anyone in the forces as the Gurkha Regiment are renowned for being fearless individuals that will give anything a go, No offence intended!

    • @AdamHickman78
      @AdamHickman78 4 роки тому +1

      I think it is clear to see Paul, especially if you have been watching Ben for a while that there is nothing but respect for the Gurkhas and also MTB riders of all skill levels. It's healthy for a bit of banter, nothing nasty at all.
