    The youtube and google video thread (MTB and non-MTB vids)

    Love watching people who are so confident in their bikes and their skills - I would have headed straight over the top of the first berm and disappeared down the side of the hill

    Maybe you live in a nicer area than me. Round here XT may be on the top shelf but XTR would be behind the counter in a locked cabinet.
