Blencathra Bites Back – Mechanical at Full Speed!

Blencathra Bites Back – Seconds from Disaster on a Wild MTB Descent! The morning after smashing the Bolly Skyline Enduro, we took on the mighty Blencathra (868m) in the Lake District – and I made one huge mistake… I left all my spare inner tubes in the car. Everything was going perfectly until disaster struck right at the summit. With no way to fix it, I had to send Curt down the mountain for an epic second ascent to bring rescue supplies! Highlights in this ride: Taking on Blencathra’s exposed ridgeline straight after race day Stunning Lake District views in perfect riding conditions The mechanical disaster that stopped me in my tracks Curt’s heroic double climb to save the day A descent that went from thrilling to tense in seconds Filmed with: DJI Osmo Action 5 – watch on the biggest screen you can for the full experience! 📍 Location: Blencathra, Lake District National Park, UK 📏 Height: 868 metres 👉 https://buymeacoffee.com/mtbtrailshre... 🖥️ Best Watched in 4K on a Big Screen Full-screen.
