Riding Pristine High Alpine Singletrack👌

Our Guides - www.otp.tours/
This day started with one of the toughest hike-a-bikes that I've done.
Thankfully it proved to be worth it almost immediately, starting with an out in the open grassy meadow with some cool rock features.
Then it progressed onto raw, relatively untouched single track through the woods.
Finally finishing on some hand cut enduro trails with some berms and jumps built in.
An absolutely fantastic day on the bike all in.

[@taffycymroukmtb9073]

🚴 Great trails buddy 👌👌

[@Peasedotcom]

Like the drone shots where you can see your suspension setup earning its keep👍

[@McTrailRider]

Poor suspension never gets a rest 😜

[@mitchwarren1600]

Literally in the McGoldilocks zone with these videos! It’s pure porridge without YT cheese!

[@McTrailRider]

A lyrical genius as always Mitch😜

[@rogereheadbyrne4790]

💥Brilliant trails and Magnificent Views Andrew! 💥How Cool is Bulgaria! 💥Sorry i dont believe uncool Bulgaria was a Womble! Haha😂😂😂

[@McTrailRider]

Bulgaria is very cool imo 🤘

[@scottmccann4509]

All that Munro practice in the past, makes you look like a Pro now on those natural trails 👌💪💪........GET OUT OF THE WAY AMATEURS 😜

[@michaelhayne2019]

Looks amazing!

[@McTrailRider]

It’s an amazing place.

[@gazdavies6215]

Technical all the way there. No let up... Very well ridden mate.

[@McTrailRider]

Thanks Gaz, it was a good challenging day the whole way through 👍

[@rhettetherington1351]

Wow! Incredible trails and some super skillful riding. Great video.

[@McTrailRider]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ToddNZMTB]

A dog with an ear tag? That's a new one

[@McTrailRider]

The stray dogs are usually tagged and neutered in Bulgaria. They address quite often very much a part of the community, but just don’t have an official home.

[@michaelwynn7772]

Who knew Bulgaria looked like that, amazing riding.

[@McTrailRider]

Before this, I didn’t know. It’s stunning 😍

[@man123killed]

Really beautiful terrain there👍

[@McTrailRider]

I’d have to agree 👍

[@Mark_Page_MTB]

What a stunning country. The views and trails are incredible. Some fantastic riding and bike control too on those descents. Absolutely living the dream 😊PS (I wrote this before you fell off 😂😂)

[@McTrailRider]

I fell in love with the country tbh. Can’t stay rubber side down all the time 😜

[@gnarthen9977]

This looks proper bo ah tell thee!

[@McTrailRider]

Thanks Craig David 😜

[@outlandishmtb]

Great video of some super fun looking trails. Well ridden. Which of their tours did you sign up for?

[@CavemanOutdoorsMissouri]

That place had everything, what a ride. What I want to know is more about that UV device. Never seen one that size.

[@McTrailRider]

This is it right here, pretty cool imo. www.indiegogo.com/projects/nuvoe-water-purification-for-your-bottle#/

[@D.R.MTB.48]

[@McTrailRider]

[@D.R.MTB.48]

@@McTrailRider ya welcome pal

[@MartyFaeScotland]

brilliant m8.. killing it with the content lately :) I thought you sold the Skydio2 a while back! but def comes into its own for trips like this!..

[@McTrailRider]

Tried to sell it a couple of months, but nobody wanted it. I used the dji on this trip though.

[@bikeinAlpilles]

what are the settings on the osmo your image quality is great thank you

[@McTrailRider]

Nothing special really. -0.7 ev comp -2 sharpness And I film in d-logM colour profile Those are the main ones.

[@bikeinAlpilles]

@@McTrailRider thank’s 🙏

[@gethappycyclingcampingoutdoors]

Awesome location, excellent riding. What type of drone do you have and how does it follow you? (I know nothing about drone cameras) ✌❤

[@McTrailRider]

This was the dji air 3, it follows using the camera alone. It didn’t work that great on this ride tbh.

[@gethappycyclingcampingoutdoors]

@@McTrailRider Thanks, just read your description, looks great.

[@memphisrainesgallery]

what was the distance and total decending for the main trail down the mountain? deffinately getting 'dry dusty warm sunny long days on the bike' envy!

[@McTrailRider]

Approximately 1250m descent over about 10km from the col down to the woods.

[@memphisrainesgallery]

pretty epic! wasnt the descent in the woods a continuation of the same hill?

[@McTrailRider]

@@memphisrainesgallery before we meet the dog, yes, the same descent. We got a lift to the final descent through the woods though. 2500 meters descent all in👌

[@rjw1974]

Andrew, what time of year was this?

[@McTrailRider]

This was at the end of September.

[@rjw1974]

One of the best channels out there pal. The content just keeps getting better. Keep it up🤙
