Great article, brought back so many memories of my time in the bike trade, some good, some bad. Good, the look on a punters face when their shiny new ride is ready, better, when they bring you beer and cookies to say thanks. Bad being out on a club run and getting screamed at cos somebodies gears pack up half way round, I hadn't even worked on the guys bike, lol. Worse, 'hey man you work in a bike shop, can you look at / fix my whatever' when all you want to do is ride on your maybe one day off a week, but being a kind hearted soul you have a look, and end up spending more time fixing some random's bike than you do riding. It's a great life, but remember most of these guys get paid peanuts, so look after your local bike shop staff, bring them Beer & Food and they'll keep you rolling. keep up the good work :-)

Another stormer from Mr Akrigg, proving once again that he can ride EVERYTHING, ANYWHERE. DH, FR AM, Fixie, Trials even BRAKELESS trials!!!!

As with many of the above the 1st 2 vids were funny, we all fall off lol, but if you throw your bike at me, I'm gonna make you fucking wear it

Saw this on Facebook, LMAO, quality vid and wonderfully tongue in cheek, Sir Jimmy is a legend

cheers mate, still got a few wee cheeky lines I've still to get on film......

Nice to see someone else hitting up that line at glentrees, got fotos and video of me doing it 2 tears ago

Absolutely incredible riding, super steep and technical, true 'all mountain' riding. I agree with many of the points made especially when riding public trails that we share with walkers and climbers. In Scotland we are very fortunate not to have any trespass laws, however we as a group must respect the rights of other trail users and treat them with respect. I have ridden - hike-a-biked - many of the Scottish Munros and fully appreciate the skill demonstrated in these films. Props to all involved.

Fantastic as usual, but you just knew that was going to end badly
