MTB Trails at Bardon Hill

[@chuckmorrismtb]

Nice mate, the lads have done some great work up there

[@MacRaceyMTB]

Great video man! Your riding has really been coming on recently! Some of the jumps there look pretty sizeable, you’ll have them soon 👊🏻

[@tryingouttrails]

Thanks man. It’s hard to find good places to ride in the midlands. It’s very flat. Yeah the jumps are pretty big and a lot of them are gap jumps so you’ve gotta know you can make them.

[@MacRaceyMTB]

@@tryingouttrails Well you seem to be doing a pretty good job at finding some epic trails! Yeah gaps are a big mental game more than anything bud! Keep up the good work 🤙🏻

[@tryingouttrails]

@@MacRaceyMTB thanks. Can’t take the credit for finding this spot but yeah there’s a few things about.

[@Mk3Lew]

Definitely give it another shot around April/May if we get enough dry weather. You’ll love Ben’s Berms and Endor. This time of year there’s more digging going on than riding just because of the mud. Drainage is a constant battle.

[@OfftheTopMTB]

Nice, you found Leicester's worst kept secret! great place up there, I havent been in about 4 years, Endor is a brilliant track. Always wanted to hit Jabba but not got the minerals 😂

[@tryingouttrails]

Hehe yeah. We didn’t do Endor, to be honest the top looked really slippery when we went past it on the walk up. Le Coq Sportif was probably our favourite. Yes, definitely!!

Please could u give me a link to where they are because the link in the description isn’t even in leistershire

Nice vid and great ride in tough conditions! Looks really good over there 😀 Btw I think when you speak into the camera vlog style, you might need to do something to protect the mic from the wind 😉

[@tryingouttrails]

Thanks mate. Yeah it’s a great little place. Thanks, I don’t have a wind cover for the smaller GoPro but do now for the Hero 8.

[@SingletrackScene]

probably worth a re-visit in the drier summer months.

[@tryingouttrails]

Totally. The surface is just the raw ground. At the moment it’s not been treated with anything that can drain off the rain so it’s thick mud and we just slid a lot in the top part and it’s really steep. Definitely would he good on a dry summers day, but they’ve done a great job there.
