Hi all

I just made my first proper mountain bike film while on a ten day expedition to the high mountains in Nepal. Please check it out and let me know what you think. I can't recommend going to Nepal and mountain biking enough, really great experience in terms of trails, people, culture, the views! I could go on and on.

    Nice, I walked up to Kala Pattar (opposite side of the valley from Everest Bas Camp) when I was a nipper and it's still my favourite place I ve been ever! It's just unbelievably beautiful. Would love to go back there with a bike!!

    I think Nepal has got to be the best place on the planet to go mtn biking. There are single track trails everywhere, most never been used for biking.

    If anyone wants contacts for serious mtn bike holiday / adventure then get in touch

    Wow! That's one of the best I've seen tbh

    The camera angles really do show off the scenery and culture of the place!

    Hmm not bad but in balance and having been there three times I would add that there is a sh*tload of uphill as well :wink:

    Get higher up and nothing and nobody is going to save you.
