The Scottish trail centre scene is looking better than even now, with plenty of development going on all over the country.
The newest development being "Kieron's Trail" at Glenlivet. This is to the best of my knowledge, the biggest official jump line in Scotland.
It was a little bit too much for me on the day, and it was a bit soggy from rain the day before. I will be back though!

Great, great video mate. We were with you the whole way. I think the fact you were so honest about the fear made it even better. Also, those conditions were not ideal. Brilliant mate. That's inspired me to get up there.

@McTrailRider Год назад

The fear was very real on this one Jamie. Definitely wait for drier weather for your visit 👍

@RamsayMacFarlane Год назад

Great to get a wee shred dude, been too long! Stoked you got the biggies done in the end 🤘 #gwinning

Cheers Ramsay, turned out to be a great day in the end 🤘

Love Glenlivet and great video. Good on you for being honest and not editing out doubts and mistakes! ❤

I’m honest if nothing else

Great video Andrew well done for getting over the doubt and getting them done and having fun.

@McTrailRider Год назад

Super glad I managed to hit something on the jump trail, I would have been so disappointed if I hadn’t.

@jonathanspackman9290 Год назад

I loved seeing your session and getting better and better at that last section. I wish I was able to jump like that for sure!!! Plus that 'downhill' at the end looked immensely fun!!!

@McTrailRider Год назад

Glad you enjoyed the progression side of things 👍

@stevestowe1110 Год назад

Fantastic Video Andrew….amazing trails in Scotland!! You undersell your jump skills…you did Awesome!!😁👍🏻👊🏻

@McTrailRider Год назад

Thanks Steve, I can jump, it’s just I don’t get to that often and I almost have to learn again each time.

@cals.9269 Год назад

Nice one Andrew ! Fair racking up the miles with the roving coverage 😀 The Scottish scene just keeps getting better !! Look forward to hitting these soonest. Take it easy & keep up the good work

Thanks for showing your experience of this, great to get a down to earth view of tackling a jump line. I think I would have been stuck on the blue!

@McTrailRider Год назад

Not a bad place to be stuck to be fair

@bridgefootcottage Год назад

Great effort on the jump and nice sessioning video. That new jump trail looks pretty scary for me. I’ve done the orange a few times and never a proper effort and keen to try the gap near end. But I’m 50 and only started jumping this year. Nailed keeping my feet on flat pedals on jumps in last few weeks. The new blue jump trail at tarland has been great for sessioning a few features to build confidence and the local Yeti trails nearer to home. Great to see these Jump trails being built in Scotland and the youngsters hitting them ❤

@McTrailRider Год назад

Just keep hitting them smaller jumps until your really comfortable, then move it up when your ready 👍

@mishmashvhs1354 Год назад

it gave me a big smile when you done the big jumps. A big well done. I know what it feels like...🙂👌

Cheers dude, I must admit, I was close to not even making a video of the day. I really wasn’t feeling it early on.

@A_AAA232 Год назад

@@McTrailRider best remedy for when you feel like that is to go out for a shred - keep it up Andrew, be good to see you in the mountains again soon - perhaps not putting the gap jump skills into practice though! ride on

Keep at it and you’ll be doing whips on all the big jumps in no time 👍

Well done Andrew. That took some nerve. The kids don't have any fear. Us oldies on the other hand are constantly thinking about what we might break! Better to back off and live to go another day.

@adriankelly_edinburgh Год назад

Well, that was timely... We're heading up to Aviemore this weekend so there's a better than even chance we'll end up at Glenlivet on one of the days. It looks like a lot has changed in the couple of years since we were last there (and it's a bit less of a traipse than Tarlands would be...). Cheers.

@McTrailRider Год назад

Ideal! Tarland Matt very well be worth the extra miles as well tbh.

@kisilvan Год назад

The new pump track at nearby Boat of Garten is worth a visit too If you're into that kind of riding.

@user-zf4il7ll6m Год назад

Great video 👍🏻 My son was one of the Trailcoach crew 😀 They do worry about breakages - their phones when they land on them 😂 As another commenter said, you undersell your skills! I'm 45 and learning my way back into the sport. I keep stealing snippets of advice off Ramsay when he's coaching the kids 🤪

Can’t wait 😂

@albanomadarts Год назад

Aye great video. Just shows you the importance of taking yer time and checking out the jumps before you do them. I faceplanted at Tarland the other day as a result which could have been a lot worse

@McTrailRider Год назад

My days off just going for it are over…….. arguably never existed actually 😜

@HighsandFlows Год назад

I was up there today, conditions were much better after a couple of dry days but a few ruts seem to be developing. I’m 50 and self employed so only walked it very early this morning!

@McTrailRider Год назад

The trail took quite a hit in its first couple of days

@pendulum1997 Год назад

Looks sticky! I do worry about trails built with this sort of clay rich dirt in our perennial rain. Some of the Tarland trails built with the same sort of dirt weren't holding up too well yesterday. Trail maintainers will have earnt their dinner for sure

@McTrailRider Год назад

That was a concern I had when riding Tarland, but the weather was dry when I was there, so it was hard to gauge. This trail certainly didn’t hold up that great, but rain and a huge amount of traffic wouldn’t have helped.

@HankBizzle Год назад

I reckon Tarland will be better with a bit of wear and tear on it. Looked a bit too smooth anyway 😅

@markking8274 Год назад

@McTrailRider Год назад

I’ve heard from people who’ve ridden there since in the day, and they say it goes well 👍 That’s for checking back in. The misses didn’t get out on the bike much these days unfortunately.

@McTrailRider Год назад

West for rugged adventure riding, east for enduro/trail delights.

@richardeljay Год назад

Great vid. Solid effort/performance. And I know what you mean about feeling self conscious with others watching (esp kids). Discretion being the better part of valour means just watching your jumps made me queasy. Nice blue track though.

@johngreen1985 Год назад

Really wish people would stop shouting "RIDER!!" as if it gives them the right of way when approaching from behind. It works for enduro racing, but makes slower riders on normal ride days panic. Just slow down and pass when it's safe ffs.

@RamsayMacFarlane Год назад

It's not neceserily for clearning riders out the way - it's for letting people know you're dropping into a trail when on a session so pushers can get out the way or people can video! Totally against folk shouting ahead for slower riders to get out the way though, hate that - just slow down and take a gap!

@McTrailRider Год назад

I agree with Ramsey here, this isn’t shouting from an arrogance stand point, it’s for safety. There were many people riding short sections of trail and then pushing back up, or looking at the jumps etc. Many of them shouting rider to the others if they seen someone coming down the trail.
