Nice.
I really enjoy your pics and videos.
Keep 'em coming.

schmako

Cheers, will do!

Two weeks off at the end of April so will be out and about for sure.

WRM!

interesting vegitation there, if you can call it that. That vast nothingness is impressive

schmako

Yep, it is pretty barren. Nothing better for clearing the mind than getting out to spaces like this!

Well just back from the Isle of Arran, arrived there Tuesday morning. Got home yesterday afternoon. Couldn't have asked for better weather, wall to wall sunshine for the entire trip!

Here are some pictures (videos will come when I get round to editing the gopro footage):



On the ferry between Ardrossan and Arran (can see Arran in the distance)



The view from where my tent was (Glen Rosa).



Top of Goatfell.



View of Goatfell from Brodick.



A little bit after the campsite further up Glen Rosa.



Viewpoint of the mountains from the south of the island.



Panorama of campsite.



Waiting in Brodick for the ferry to arrive.

All in all an amazing trip made all the better by the weather, would definitely recommend Arran.

First edit in a while, was up loch earn doing a couple of hills (walking) and we stopped in by Comrie Croft and got a couple of runs in on each trail. Nice trail center, this footage is from the blue on the clearest run (slowed down a little in the middle unfortunately)

Oh well no riding for a month or two, was up the hills yesterday and had a stupid off. Bent mech hanger, broken wrist and a few other minor cuts/bruises. Xray this morning and its a carpal fracture, wrist support for 4 - 8 weeks, dammit!

Video here

You silly sausage.

Hope you recover quickly.

Maybe you could spend the time off the bike putting together some ‘Director’s Cuts’ of your videos?

schmako

Cheers! Could've been worse I guess.

Good shout with the editing, got a few videos I could mash together!

schmako

Well been lazy and not edited anything in a while, done a couple this week though. Interesting winter conditions for both.

Innerleithen Golfie, New Wolf i think, tech, steep, roots pretty much sums it up

and

Snowy Carnethy Hill at dusk, steep, cold and dark sums that one up

First edit of 2018, footage from my boxing day ride up the local hills. Lots of snow, sun and a bit of Brocken Spectre action, good times!

schmako

First edit in a while, one of my favourite new loops up the local hills.

Not long back from a trip north which took in Laggan Wolftrax, Creag Meagaidh & Nevis Range, this is a video of the full orange run at Laggan, nice and fast trail. Will get round to doing edits for the other rides in at some point also.

You should start your own thread rather than jumping on to someone else's.

magic:boomerang

sorry - did not want to to to conquer any thread. I am new here and maybe should watch how nettiquette works here!

Out and about again, just back from a two day loop where we went from Braemar to Loch Bullig, Glen Avon, Glen Derry and back to Braemar. 50 or so miles over the two days with an overnight stay at Faindouran Bothy. This is the first edit from the trip, a fail down Glen Derry where I went over the bars, mashed both knees, left thigh and left palm pretty good! Still a well worthwhile trip, will upload the good stuff at some point as well.

JBA

Never mind your body. How was your bike?

Hope you recovered ok.

schmako

Left leg is fairly screwed, limping atm, but it could be worse, pretty sure nothings broken anyway!

Main thing is the bike is fine, slight twist and gouge to the right brake lever, but was able move it back in place and hammer out the final 10 or so miles back to the car. Gonna clean the bike this afternoon and further inspect.

Ben Avon MTB Loop Day 1 footage.

Finally got round to editing some of the last biking trip, lots of mileage on landrover tracks, singletrack and very little pushing day one, also update on the leg, still painful but getting better. Was out on the mtb for the first time since the crash today and it was alright, still not 100% yet though!

schmako

Ben Avon Loop Day 2 edit finally done, leg feels 100% again thankfully and smashed phone is repaired!

schmako

Back with another video finally, this time done the Great Glen Way (with an extra bit into Glen Affric) over four days, this is the footage from Day 1 Spean Bridge - Fort Augustus.

Day 2 Fort Augustus to Tomich

schmako

Finally got day 4 Drumandrochit to Inverness uploaded, after my hard drive packed in at the beginning of the year I didn't get any editing done, feels good to do it again! Just gotta hope this stupid virus buggers off so I can get some fresh footage!
