FINDING URBAN MTB FREERIDE SPOTS AND AN INSANE BIKE PARK IN FRANCE!

Finding urban MTB freeride spots and an insane bike park in France! We came across crazy riding spots in Reims, a huge skatepark, fast pump track and crazy street riding then we ride at La Bresse Bike Park! What do you prefer?
Me and my Girlfriend Hope are out in France doing a huge mountain biking trip in my motorhome hitting loads of different bike parks and riding spots but we got some bad news because of uk quarantine rules and had to change our plans. So, we headed up through France to the City of Reims as a half way waiting spot to hear what the government would say and whilst riding around we found some insane urban freeride spots! We start the ride off on my Haibike dirt jump bike in a huge skatepark which was filled with loads of fun features. Across from the skatepark is a huge pump track that I found some fun new lines in and Hope even got involved for a shred session! After pulling off some big tricks and full speed laps It was time to find some more freeride spots and gaps around the city. My girlfriend even managed to hit a stair set of doom for the first time since her ankle break!
As the day came into an end we decided to move down through France to La Bresse Bike Park to how a ride. I'd never been to the bike park before and was super surprised at the amount of amazingly fun trails on offer here, from technical black runs to jump filled freeride lines this places is awesome! After shredding my Haibike Downhill bike as much as possible it was time to leave to try and catch a ferry back to the UK to beat the quarantine deadline, but will we make it??
Shot on GoPro HERO 8!
I hope you enjoy the video!
