New BasqueMTB video
27 Jan
The Winter Leaves from BasqueMTB on Vimeo.
Doug has produced another fantastic video, this time shot whilst exploring the forests as part of his winter project to find new trails. There are some photos and words describing what he’s up to at the moment here on his site. You’ll also find some excellent real world product tests elsewhere on his site. You know that the kit he writes about has been ridden a lot, and then been ridden a lot more. It’s a bit like dog years.
There are still places available for the Great Rock Basque skills and riding holiday in June this year. Click on the tab up above.

Stunningly beautiful. I spent a week on an exchange at college in Bilbao in 1994 and we travelled out to some of those beautiful forests to collect fallen wood for sculptures. I remember longing for my bike at the time, thinking how much beautiful remote woodland there was out there. Right now I’d have ten of these rides for every alps trip – it’s serene and spectacular in its own way. One of these days, when the children have grown up… I’ll get there.

Cheers Dave. I’m taking all my family out there in April. There’s loads of family stuff to do, plus with them there in a hire car we’ll be able to get uplift 😉

Hi Andy, thanks for the comments on the video. The soundtrack is Wide Eyed and Legless, by Laura Veirs. You can download it off the web from her site.
