The Nevis Range in Scotland is known for its amazing scenery and even better mountain biking. With that in mind, we sent Neil and Blake up into the hills to search out some epic riding.

I miss Scotland so much (based on the south coast for work at the moment), and this was a perfect illustration of everything I missed! Blake’s appropriate happiness at the lack of the fanged clouds, the dreich weather, the epic mountains, the drainage ditches, awesome rock, even those fire road climbs from 10 under the Ben! Much as I hated them several laps in...

I really wish I can explore and ride places that scenic. Riding in Louisiana in United States is not even close to the same universe of the trails you ride😂 It's flat with the best mtb trail here around 120ft in elevation. But I've always wanted to climb a mountain and ride down it, that's what a mountain bike is born for💪

It would be nice to see a movie for filmmakers related to mtb. How to prepare for such an expedition, some useful tips, useful accessories. Because from my (little) experience I know that it is quite problematic. You make great cycling videos on trips like this one, so I think you've already gained a lot of experience on these topics :D

Carn Dearg is pronounced like "Carn Dirrig", Gaelic never seems to read how you'd say it. Great content, and an absolute beast of a run.

@grigorbrowning 5 лет назад

I'd go further and suggest that Dearg is pronounced almost with a 'j' in with the 'd'- so "Carn dJerag". And while I'm being a pedantic ass hat, Blake was pointing at Tower Ridge. Carn Dearg is behind his head... :-)

@brauljo 5 лет назад

Well that's English too

@brauljo 5 лет назад

@Pete is never wrong It's unphonetic

@brauljo 5 лет назад

@Pete is never wrong Oh yeah I didn't mean that Carn Dearg was in English or of English origin. Goes to show its ambiguity as well.

@gordon1545 5 лет назад

It's really Carn Jerack. You can get away with more of a 'g' sound at the end, but definitely not a 'd' sound at the start of Dearg, it's a 'j' sound.
