Really enjoyed watching that.
Looking at the route on Strava, it looked very unsavoury. Kudos all round

Re: Fat bike - anyone regret it?
Well as you've probably seen from my video's I really love riding mine. It really is a go anywhere bike, from riding my normal mtb stuff, racing the Dyfi Enduro (last May), loading up for bikepacking or popping down the beach, it is just sooo much fun to ride. The worst thing has to be as V-Simon sa...

Slept in a old castle on top of a hill and weather was rather good. Anyone care to guess where it is ?? I know you all like a bit of guess where !!

Here's the video from my September bivvy. Stayed at the refuge hut on Foel Grach (3150 feet) in North Wales.
A bit misty but you'll get the idea

Re: Bivvy a month 2014 thread.
With the forecast looking half decent I thought I'd get a high level one in. After the gruelling climb from conwy to Foel Grach (3150feet) on the Carneddau, I stayed at the refuge hut. Has to be one of the best this year, big shame the weather wasn't any clearer though as it would have been a belter...

Did you report the dog incident to the old bill?
And if they've done this before then surely its an unsafe place to be, especially if none suspecting families walk past with their kids......

Just good old basic Windows Movie Maker. It has 20 different pan & zoom effects on the animation tab
I do need something a tad different now as I think I've used it to its limit

Not sure why that is? I know its happened before with some of my video's, maybe its because there's copyrighted music on it?
If anyone knows how to sort it, I'd be greatly appreciated.

Re: Bivvy a month 2014 thread.
Made it 8/8 last night with a trip west of Coed y Brennin. I was hoping my August one was going to be the warmest but hailstones at the start and quite a chilly night put pay to that :roll: Anyway a great route, felt like I was really 'out there'. However I think I do need lessons in how to set a ta...

I like how you took it from the boring mundane work stuff to out on the bike, good stuff
But, I would have liked it if you were riding your bike through the corridor at 44 seconds

Weather permitting I'll be trying out a new route for me, south of Trawsfynydd. It should tick the box for my 8/8 bivvy a month. And I might do a vid aswell, and try out the cable cam
