- I was lucky enough to be the first person to ride “Merthyr Rocks” a brand new blue trail for 2021 at Bike Park Wales.
At the more technical end of their blues, this trail has something for everyone, rock slabs, fast rollers, natural sections and a few sneaky gaps for those looking to mix it up from the traditional higher graded or jump trails.
Watch as I take you on a track walk before jumping on the bike for a full POV run.
Bikepark Wales re-opens to the public on 26th April, make sure to get down there and try this trail for yourself!
Enjoy,
Rob

Rob Warner is an absolute legend!! He was born to be on camera. This is probably one of the best MTB channels on CZcams, unique!!
Camera Geezer is an absolute legend,he’s like a cross between Robs dad and carer!
Watching these vids actually makes me think that buying an ebike maybe a good idea!
i always watch your ads all the way through so you can get some cash for a new Jag, just throwing that out there
Same. He gotta get paid for this eggscrement.
I’m convinced Rob Warner would make a fantastic Top Gear presenter.
Best MTB channel on CZcams. 👍
There's an idea. Until he has to look at a Jag and he goes all Jerry
Rob's videos always remind me of mockumentaries when he interacts with the camera man. They crack me up every time.
Rob you are the best - The Murray Walker of mountain biking :)
Sheep are better known for their fur....
Definitely the best thing i've heard this week!!
Amazing how Rob is 36 and he still doesn't know sheep's "fur" is called wool 🤣🤣🤣 absolute legend
36!! Don't let the purple beard deceive you 🙃
All sheep have both types of fibers. Hair sheep have more hair fibers and wool sheep have more wool fibers. Wooled sheep need shearing 👍🏻🤪
Fucken 36 😂😂😂
Closer to 63 than 36.
I think you mean 26
That drone run was really good, the guy can still shred. Nice work.
Rob “Always in Boost” Warner
Can you imagine Rob doing Top Gear. It'll be hysterical
@robwarner please find a way to get in there or make a mtb version. Top gear rob Warner style. Winner all day long
No way was that Merthyr. Robs bike would have been a goner in 10 seconds when left unattended. The drone work was epic, very very impressed 🤟🤟🤟
Lamb is the meat of champions! Although sheep have wool and not fur! Great video though keep them coming!
So we've already had Engineering Rob, now we've got Geologist Rob and Animal Planet Rob !
Anyone else think he's just trying his hand at everything in the hopes Channel 5 give him his own show ?
The next Richard Hammond
The next Rob Shattenborough
What's he on about...drop?
That looked like a curb with a really long landing ramp 🤷🏻♂️
You need to take him to the end of (what used to be called) the Marin trail. They've turned it into an enduro section.
It's mint, although, I wouldn't suggest you approach it after doing the long loop...it'll likely break you Rob 😅
Rob's obsessed with the boiled egg handwarmer/ snack since learning about them,
Love watching your vids Rob you and your team are wkd good riding mixed with some fun and banter, legend keep up the good work 👍🤘
Rob Warner: geologist, youtuber oh and 1996 Kaprun winner.......love ya style old man
Absolutely loving this. Just rob dribbling shit with a mate 😄 can't get better
Love it. Your not right Rob but you brighten my day up every time I watch. Top man. Leg end!
Comedy value at its highest.Your videos are just brilliant entertainment,and informative.
Rob, it’s just a laugh a minute watching and listening to your commentary. Loved the bit you nearly went of the side. Lol keep up the brilliant videos
Best biking channel on CZcams. Rob is hilarious.
Cheers Rob ,nice one ,and cheers to your career
Class content! Unreal camera/drone/editing skills 📈💯
Great looking addition to the blue stuff. Always warm up at bpw on a few blues as they're so much fun. Drone pilot - 👍🏻
"It's rattling through my skull!"
That'll be ya brain, Rob!
Here you go...Manchego cheese is made from sheep's milk.
And is bloody lovely too!
loving the drone chase footage
‘I know, let Rob talk shite for 8 minutes then we’ll do a couple minutes of pov & drone’
Churning 👏
Yep, love it. Better than another shitty build video
Good job robs good at it 👏
The sand belt bit got me 🤣
Funny AF! Top guy Rob Warner lol
Rob does Geology, amazing! Another class vid, loving it. Rob if you eat the egg, does it warm you up from the inside out? 🥚 I’ve already subscribed so this gets a 👍
Rob you freakin Rock man!!!!
Hilarious, keep em coming.
Love it 🏴🤘🏴🤘🏴
great clip 👌
I thinks your best sorta more profession video yet.
Image having breakfast and having the egg in four forms for consumption.
Scrambled, fried; pouched, and of course. Boiled. On one plate.
Golden.
Cheers for the entertainment.
Come to Las Cruces, and I'll show you "just a corner". That was a beautifully banked, speed increasing work of art. We've got loose over hard, speed sucking, corners. :(
Looks like a sweet trail though! Cheers :)
6:16 lol at Rob sticking supposedly magnetic rocks on a memory card, good luck with that footage...
memory cards aren't magnetic storage anyway
Hard boiled rob is a legend
Rob can still shred. I don’t know how ok’d he is these days, but still better than almost anyone watching this.
I was at Forest of Dean when he was riding around and trust me he’s better than an unbelievable amount of people. Tbf I was riding the trails he was riding on a 100mm cx hardtail which probably made it seem harder but never in my mind would I be doing what he was 😂
@@willfirmstone890 I know it’s part of his shtick to play the clown, but the dude can ride. He’s massively humble and always plays down his World Cup win, saying it was wet, technical etc. Dude won. End of.
The beard is looking thick now mate and no purple .👍🤓🇦🇺🤣
Comedy gold!😂
Legend mr warner , look after them eggs , could save your life
No signature eggset (head set) to go with the signature factory pedals Mr Warner?
you just got to pump all the way down there :D :D
Reckon you could have a KOM there as long as it rains before anyone else hits it 😂
Nice "Puma" Helmet !!! !!! !!!
2:48 Best thing on CZcams!
Don’t you mean wool Rob haha! 😂
Warner can still send it!
Killy sunt!
Who do they get to do the riding in the drone follow shots?
Love lamb.
I could probably show you what you need to know about shelling eggs like you could about riding a bike. So if you’re up for some skill sharing I’m up for it hahaha! Oh yeah. I didn’t know you spoke kiwi until you scared that sheep away.
So long in the game he has grandfather rights, bless 😂
Watch out Countryfile...Rob Warner's on the scene. Communicating with sheep, re-uniting them with their children, discussing meat eating, and opening up about his love of sausage.
Rob Warner meets the real mint sauce.......
Some say he lives off eggs, and that he roams around the woods at night foraging for sheep. All we know is he’s called the Warner
Is that the time......
This guy needs his own show honeslty lmfao
Wonder who it was doing the riding with the drone follow 🤔 defo wasn't rob, he's not been that slick since ....kaprun 🤣🤙🏼
Great videos mate piss funny when you say your legs are gone after 2 minutes about time someone said it as it is 🤣🤣
It's sunday already?
Rob! Can you do a video in Gisburn Forest?????
Is there some good riding up there?
@@robwarner9700 yeh, a proper Northern Track, trail centre, worth a look, do us a favour and make the place famous with one of your videos. I’ve liked AND subscribed! 😂
He seems a funny guy
Can you go Mercia 🇺🇲 Mr.Rob, and make a video of riding in every state?
State? He's in Wales, not bloody Arkansas....
Shhhhrrrrraaaaallllp! 😂
I call myself a flexitarian! So i can teach people of the importance of eating less meet but also enjoy an awesome currywurst from time to time!
meat
Is it sunday! Fuck! Im back at work tomorrow!!!
Bro the stiff master
He said you might need ropes for this one lmao!!!!!
As a sheep farmer you can drink sheep’s milk and it produces cheese
🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
The cuter the animal, the better they taste.
they need a ben deakin sponsored trail called Just Roll It.
Can’t make up my mind if I want to ‘Like’ or ‘subscribe’... Thumbs up though 👍🏼
Both, surely?
"U u u up he e e r re"
Just go you fuckin Pratt. So good.
I stopped watching the last dance for this. It's similar though. A pro at the top of his game
He's really becoming obsessed with boiled eggs 😂
He's calling you a Prat!?
That's a bit harsh...donkey maybe. But prat?
I'd be having proper words with that one Rob!
Hard case.......
Rob mate, you’ve got to do something about your beard. For some reason it keeps changing colours. 😂
If that's the blue, I'll stick to the fire trails!
The blues at BPW are closer to reds at most trail centres. They aren't difficult, everything is rollable, but a lot more fun than a regular trail centre blue.
Every video should end with Rob peaking out from behind a rock.
Lamb is the best meat!
Hammerheads
Can we have a video where he just runs the trail with his hands in his pocket????😂😂
🍖🍗🥩🥓🌭🍔
Sheep produce wool mate…… not fur…. Also sheep’s cheese is delicious, especially grated on pasta
You crack me up, and yes, eating a baby sheep (or any other baby) is beyond cruel.
Quite right, thank god nobody eats ‘baby’ sheep.
@@o5h123 Yes they/you do. But use whatever language makes you feel better. I hear baby deer is delicious!
Let's just hope there are no Karmic/post-life consequences for these actions eh? Have a nice life.
@@Dani-El. Quite worried now that you appear to know who I am and the food I consume. I certainly don’t think you’ve made any unfounded assumptions. I better make sure nobody is peeking through my kitchen window 👍😂
@@o5h123 BORING. Go and troll someone else.
Sheep's cheese is fucking good
Rob check this out, in the world more people drink sheeps milk than cows ?
Fucking eggs 🤣
Wtf is that noise at 10:41?
That was a schralp I believe
Rob Warner needs help;)
We need Warner 😂😂😂been a shit year
What's this egg thing
Not against eating meat, but I don’t eat lamb.
Lmao
