NEW FAVOURITE RIDE! Mountain Biking Sierra Nevada, Spain

What a sick ride this one is! Add another little bit of climbing and you could do a 3rd drop off the ridge down Demoralizer. Such awesome, techy and steep descending. Luckily I have the perfect mountain bike for the job! Loved it and I hope you enjoy it too!

Oh chunky hey there guys and welcome to another trail ride apologize for the hose being in the way for the first couple of minutes of this video I do sort it out in a like at two minutes or something like that this is a new trail for me there’s two new descents that I do today really really good ride really steep really chunky really technical just a great ride really sick I hope you enjoy it and I’ll catch up with you in a bit new brand new trail for me today super chunky super fun kids everywhere come on Oh Highline gay yes awesome we wore hose knob junkie [Applause] wait [Applause] no good Russian today I know I’ve been talking about the heat a lot but my plan to get up early this morning was ruined by the bear dog keeping us awake all night it was friggin hot I wouldn’t have slept anyway really hot night so I set off at about 11:00 instead of the kind of eight nine o’clock got a plan so as you can imagine it’s warm again yeah that first ascent was really good not particularly quick because it’s really really technical the reason ice and I send it out stopping and starting a lot on the reason I end up stopping and starting a lot is because my go-to setting is to ride pinned out which is my pin now it might be your medium like you know it’s you know it’s figure of speech more than it is an actual speed but I ride as fast as I can all the time and yeah it just means on a really technical descent like that which I’m riding for the first time it just means that I end up stopping and starting coming into corners to heart and and stuff I love a really good descent and one that will get really really good the more that I ride it cuz there’s super technical bits there’s definitely loads of stuff that you can jump really good descent really good so we’ll have a bit of something to eat and then we’ve got a bit of a climb to do and then another pretty steep descent actually it says on Strava it says that the next descent over the whole descent is an average of 27 degrees you know down so I’m 27 percent down so that’s going to be pretty intense our man it’s actually much nicer being out in the heat than there is thinking that you’re doing the right thing and staying in the house to stay cool it just ends out like I’m just really muggy in the house really muggy all around the house really so it’s really hard to stay cool whereas if you’re out up in the mountains there’s a bit of a breeze up here it’s actually quite nice these are really nice I’m sure they don’t give you anywhere near the energy value that a proper energy bar does but I’m not really into all the shock that they put in there so much health you know a much more natural solution but perhaps not the same benefits but put something in your stomach which is good okay let’s getting I’ve just realized I’ve spent the whole time I’ve been talking to the camera staring at myself in the frigging selfie thing like as if I’m on FaceTime but yeah I can’t get into habit looking into that but yeah let’s get on with this climb and then get into this next really steep descent which should be fun okay climb done time for some fun this one is cool watch out for the ball which I don’t really like the sound of hyaline again another new one for me and once again all of this one of those trails that you will be able to see how steep it is unfortunately hot okay skip a new dad for a minute oh no oh no down ha ha on now I send my pedal all the crank arms I think it’s the pedal thread like that a new job might be out of straighten out prize it’s taken this long to be honest yeah I just realized I always thought let that sound on their travel videos with interference that really high pitch switch screeching it’s in here but it’s the brake which is the same sound but much clearer you Wow this must be where the 27th second job twenty-seven ah well guys we now have a rather annoying and wonky ride about five six mile ride home on the road with a bent crank or pedal whatever it is I’ve done yeah thanks a lot for watching click on that top left-hand box to watch my last trail ride bottom left-hand box to watch my last vlog on your bikes guys thanks for watching
