Sorry, bit of topic but I just have to say the Whistler section of Seasons is hands down the best section of a mountain bike movie ever for me.

The concept (everyone getting together at the end of the season to celebrate), the feeling of access to the riders (interviews and the lift line shots), the massive trains (training A Line is on my list of 10 things to do before I depart my mortal coil) and the music (brilliant tune, builds, falls away and then builds to a wicked finish) its all just fantastic.

STOKED TO RIDE - you bet

Can you say specifically where that Bidborough Ridge trail begins?


At the top of Quarry Hill [Linking Tonbridge and Southborough] There is a steep smaller road that is almost   parellel to the main road, but then vears off to the left [going up it]. Go up there about 400m and there is a path on the right hand side of the road, get on that and there is a footpath that goes straight down the hill. Its that. Watch out for the gate at the bottom though lol. Check out the shot in the video where the riders are just going into the footpath, thats what you need to look for.

Have fun XD

Perhaps I should not say this but if you search for it on a certain video sharing website it's there, split into each section.

Personally, I would wait until you get the DVD as it's much better quality and therefore a far superior experience.

I went to the London premier and that was absolutely fantastic - few pints, ROAM and Seasons on the big screen and one too many pints afterwards.

Sweet  Very Happy

Don't get too hyped up cos otherwise it won't seem that seem good when you do see it!

I would buy it on DVD as opposed to watching it online as rob said, cos it'll ruin the experience.

It could be a good idea, would work if included with a ride sesh, say at the Bull Track when there are people sessioning stuff. Don't know really.

Would it be a day where people exchange ideas etc or a day where some teach and others are taught? If the latter, it would cost... that sort of info can't be given away for free!!  Wink

Watched Seasons yesterday!

It is totally amazing, love it, some of the slow-mo shots are just stupidly good. Love it!!!


Anyway...

Maybe to include both teaching, practical use, learning etc. it would be an idea to do like a "mini film" where we set out on the day to get everyone involved in producing a good quality 4-5 minute film, old hands giving advice and showing the new-comers how its done, then letting them have a shot at it.

???
