First visit to Antur Stiniog

15-6-2024
First time on an uplift with the eeeb, arms were dead with lifting the bloody thing up all day, towards the end, 2 sloppy crashes on the last 3 downs before I nailed it (for me) on the last run.
Very wet during the morning session but better in the afternoon, the rocks are seriously slippery when wet 🤦🏻‍♂️
Still scared of the doubles, pretty sure I have the speed but need someone to tow me in 😬
Would I go again? yep booked in again on Thursday.
Milage: 43.47 miles
Accent: 10,425ft virtually all on the uplift
only used 9% battery.
1:20 Blue trail to the bottom
6:48 Detonator (never got a clean run down here)
11:08 Wid Cart
15:05 Scrubadub
19:25 Meehhh Line
23:21 First run down Black Powder
28:10 Black Powder
31:46 The Black
35:17 The Black (first fail)
35:54 The Black (fail 2, hit a large rock that was not there earlier??)

Hey Darren.. I Always Enjoy Your Videos & Admire How You Can Just Rock Up By Yourself At The Trails & Ride Them.. This Makes Me Motivated To Do The Same.. To Try New & Different Trails I've Never Ridden Before To Improve My Own Riding.. So Thankyou Lad 🙏🏼 Stay Safe Out There 🤞🏼
