  • Keeping the birthday vlog tradition alive, we headed over to Cannock Chase for a days mountain biking. We started off with a lap of follow the dog, before heading over to the monkey trail for the afternoon. It was a lot better on full sus bikes, than the hardtails we rode around here last time! I'd fully recommend a midweek session when it's dry- all of the fun with non of the crowds.
    Drop a LIKE and enjoy!

  • @TheWeightliftingTriathlete

    Looks brilliant there, never been before but would love to visit. I really like the voice over you do on clips of you cycling, really engaging and interesting. Good job and happy birthday! 🎉👍

      Cheers Gary! The voice over bits were Kathryn's idea- thought the long riding clips might get a bit dull otherwise 😅

    Happy Birthday Will! Was cool to meet you at the open section just before pot of gold😂 - you wasn’t rude at all, as I said at the time I wasn’t sure it was actually you🤣

    Next time park at Marquis Drive if you want to avoid parking charges (like a mile from there and also has a cafe). Easy to jump onto follow the dog from there too! Ace to see a vid of my local trails. You're right as well as devils staircase has been updated quite recently as well as a few other sections!

    • @willcowen2152

      Will definitely have to park there- thanks! There also looked like a pretty new trail very close to completion? All machine built, which seems a pretty good reason to go back again soon.

    Happy Birthday mate!
    Great video!! Haven't been to Cannock for ages! It looks so different to when I was there. You had great weather as well!! Good rising mate, how did your leg feel after the ride?

      Cheers Ian! Yeah I think they've done a heck of a lot of trail development there - there was also a very exciting looking trail which I'm guessing will open in the summer, more of a blue so that there's something for everyone. Funnily enough I can ride as much as I want and it doesn't hurt at all- it's just running, although it seems like it's actually sorted itself out now!
