Welcome to Aberfeldy MTB trails. I knew nothing of the mountain biking scene in Aberfeldy and boy is it going to be the place to be over the next few years if you are in to MTB!
Aberfeldy itself is a pretty, lively town in Highland Perthshire.
The town is situated on Scotland's longest river, the River Tay, and is home to The Birks of Aberfeldy. The town is also home to Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery which is open throughout the year. The surrounding hills contain a wealth of trails. In this MTB vlog we rode three of the finest trails on offer.
If you are new to my videos then expect to see high quality riding vlogs shot in the same style as McTrail Rider, Paul the Punter and BKXC. I will try to travel to the best riding locations in Scotland and further afield to find you the best mtb trails.
The video was shot on a GoPro Hero 7 mounted on the chin of a Met Parachute helmet using a Gnartec mount.
Strava link: / strava
I am supported by Bird Cycleworks. The bike being ridden is a Bird Aeris AM9, 150mm 29er enduro bike www.bird.bike/aeris-am9/
I am a brand ambassador for Crow MTB. They make brilliant, eco-conscious MTB apparel. Go check them out at www.crowmountainbiking.com/
I am supported by Fenwicks cleaning products. Check them out, they are really nice products for sure! fenwicksbike.com/products/

The drop on the end of first section of "top of the world" is pretty long and high ..... but you hit it no problem because it just comes out of nowhere. Then all the smaller stuff that you see in time to create indecision you ended up rolling ..... Confidence dude , confidence!! You got the skills , you got the speed believe in yerself you got it !!!
