Comrie Croft MTB | What can you expect from this challenging trail centre?

Welcome to Comrie Croft Trail Centre. These Scottish MTB trails are pretty unique compared to most Scottish trail centre trails. The ascent is pretty easy and all the trails at Comrie Croft are in a really compact area. The trails themselves have some nice wee features and lots of rock to practice on. Just beware, the rock is really slippy in the wet!

This mountain biking MTB / enduro POV video was shot on Sunday 25th October at Comrie Croft. The video was shot on a GoPro Hero 7 mounted on the chin of a Fox Proframe helmet using a Gnartec mount.
All video editing was completed using Filmora Wondershare X

Your content is refreshing with your honesty on fears, tech ability and comments. It didn’t look pedestrian as you said. Anyone who rides a lot knows water, leaves, wood or mossy rocks can end a ride pretty quick. I can’t wait to come to Scotland and ride. Cheers mate.

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Nice one Stewart. I really appreciate the kind words and also that you've taken the time to comment. Hopefully you get up here sooner rather than later 👍

[@noflowridermtb]

Comrie Croft is pretty much where I learned to ride a bike. It’s got it all with even the climbs having technical sections. The reds keep you busy but don’t underestimate the blue trail either cos it leaves you grinning if you don’t get traffic. Another good video 👍👍

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thanks mate. Totally agree with all you say. A great place to hone your technical skills and fitness!

[@crowmountainbiking9926]

Love Comrie! Such a great mix of full on black's all they way back to chilled blues. Another superb edit from yourself..

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thank you mate 🙌

[@TheJcoch]

Defo want to hit Comrie at some point next year after watching this video 🤙 Great video mate 👌

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thanks mate. Let me know how you get on 👍

[@M0ng00se132]

Loving the videos - making me want to visit Scotland! (when 'Rona chills out)

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thank you! I'm enjoying making them. I also can't wait until Rona chills a bit 🤣

[@NEFRMtb]

This place looks mega - another one added to the list! 🤘🏼

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Hopefully when you get there Natural Gold will be open. I hear it's meant to be pretty good 👍

[@NEFRMtb]

@@streetpigeonmtb nice - looking forward to checking it out!

[@trailchatter5739]

Nice vid! Only done the red and blue at Comrie, black looks good fun. Will need to check it out.

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Let me know how you get on 👍

[@sean8989]

Great vid! These trails look awesome. Some boardwalks at this time of year are so unpredictable, so easy to slip over.

[@streetpigeonmtb]

The boardwalks were like ice. It really did knock the confidence a bit!

[@ruaraidhmtb2904]

Dont dis the local trails

[@streetpigeonmtb]

I'm not dissing them at all mate. Im just saying the boardwalks can be lethal 🤙

[@myminimkl]

Great stuff loving your channel giving me the enthusiasm to get out and put my new bike to the test

[@streetpigeonmtb]

That's awesome 👌 Thanks for taking the time to comment 😀

[@steveharry9891]

Good to see a vid of comrie ,always a place i enjoy as its different to the normal stuff i ride .... shame natural gold wasnt open cracking trail,its has been closed for a while .you should try it in the dry ,,,,,as always with mtb ,its more enjoyable...lol ..if you want a real challange ....try a hard tail around it ....... hard on the back end ..feel like like your on a pogo stick lol ... least you made the double look easy,as that has a hard run in to get the speed. look forward to your next vid.

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thanks. I'd imagine it would be savage on a hardtail! I was pleased with that double, not the easiest to clear!

[@alanmorton8459]

Brilliant Jamie, I think there will be a lot of wet, slop infested vids over the next few month!! keep them coming>

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Ha ha. Yeah, for sure. If I can actually keep the camera lens clear 🤣

[@christyler4381]

With everything that's going on at the moment, this is much needed escapism!!!. Would love to come up and ride some trails with you under better times!!!.. and thanks for the great content of your channel ❤️👍

[@streetpigeonmtb]

No worries. Yup, crazy times for sure. Just a tough year that seems to be getting no better. Stay safe and take care bud 👍

[@adamskik5809]

The croft is great fun hope you enjoyed it

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thank you 🤙

[@dannygar1]

Great video I even ducked for the branch over the trail at about 11mins

[@streetpigeonmtb]

🤣 It's funny, my wife says I tilt my head round the corners when I'm watching MTB on KZbin 🤣

@@streetpigeonmtb I do the same my gf thinks I'm mental

[@streetpigeonmtb]

MTB is an addiction for sure 🤣

[@scrakymtb3495]

Nice look about that area, iv never been there wasn't sure what it was like so to me its more peddly area and fitness compared to where we ride.. Nice video mate.

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Defo. I think ideally this would be a 100% effort on a trail bike. Flat out hour or so. A really good place to get your fitness up!

[@kevinwood1946]

Great VLOG Jamie, the trails did not look too manicured for a TC👊😎

[@streetpigeonmtb]

It's defo worth a shout. Very technical indeed. Might not be the place for the full descend heads but good for a change 🤙

[@5492sparky]

Looks a great place Mate. Great riding. 👍

[@streetpigeonmtb]

It really is! You should get up here at some point : )

[@5492sparky]

@@streetpigeonmtb Hopefully this year...

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Yes. Fingers crossed we can all still get some adventures sorted in 2021

[@mattiacosta4444]

Great footage as always 🤙

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thanks bud. Always tricky to get footage at this time of year. It's so wet and so dark! 👍

[@charlesslwilson]

Great trails chap

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Thank you. A brilliant challenge for sure 👍

[@JamesRobertMTB]

This place looks pretty SICK 🤟🏻

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Yeah mate. It's very different to a lot of trail centres. There is quite a lot of pedalling with no really sustained descents, however I love the techy aspect. Defo worth a visit to see what you make of it 👍

[@seanguild6528]

my local trails... awesome place 🤙🏻

[@streetpigeonmtb]

It sure is!

[@andrewcollins867]

Jamie the problem was you had your tyres at 65psi when they should have been at 3psi lol ..looks great for a long weekend with the guys in the Spring post Covid ..hire a couple Yurts

[@streetpigeonmtb]

🤣 I feel like a 4WD would have suited me more! It would be a great place to stay 👍

[@mtbfree4914]

You missed out the black trail 'natural gold' it's amazing........lots of rock slabs :)

[@streetpigeonmtb]

I'm afraid it was closed whilst we were there. In fact, it's been closed for ages. Hopefully it is open by the time I head back there 👍

[@mtbfree4914]

@@streetpigeonmtb oh that’s a shame! Fingers crossed for next time.

[@bigbigpedro100]

OOOH YEAH!

🤙🤙🤙

[@AndyCurriePhotography]

Is there a charge? - can't seem to see anywhere that shows what cost of day ticket, parking etc is?

[@streetpigeonmtb]

No charge. You just park in the town 👍

[@craigtbmtb8993]

Floater 🤣🤣. Comrie is great fun, I’ve been wanting to go back for a wee while and now even more. Great edit as always. Do you know why natural gold was closed?

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Apparently repairs. I believe it has been closed for a really long time 🤷‍♂️

[@seanguild6528]

last i heard there is a half built boardwalk so there not wanting people going down and falling off the end. plus the bottom half gets pretty boggy in the wet weather

[@streetpigeonmtb]

I'd like to ride it once it's repaired 👍

[@kennymathieson6471]

Reading between the lines, I just get the feeling that was a bit slippy ... 😂

[@streetpigeonmtb]

Savage lack of grip mate 🤣

It felt slow but I just couldn't bring myself to push harder. Rock is scary!!! 🤣

@@streetpigeonmtb rock is scary! Only just seen this now. You're still hoooooning it tho! 👊
