Do you know the names of any of the trails he's riding there? Some parts look ace especially the steep bits with the reservoir in the background!

I think the steep singletrack bit with the bridge in the background is the unmarked descent down from Whinstone Lee Tor. There's a junction of tracks there, one footpath heading uphill onto the moor, one bridleway leading downhill towards Grindle Barns and the reservoir back towards the visitor centre, the more common descent down to Cutthroat Bridge and Ladybower Inn, a very steep footpath down to the reservoir, and this small track off to the south, its not marked on any OS maps. There is a rather low power line next to a pylon halfway down you have to look out for.

Can see it here..

The really rocky bit where the bloke falls off I think is Blackley Hey, also known as potato alley.
 
I'd love to be able to scrub, loving this pic!

Have you tried this:
Crank arm pointing down/slightly forwards.
Spanner (in red, if you cant tell from my awesome drawing) pointing back at almost the same angle as the crank arm.
Stand on the end of the spanner (dont stamp of it, just give it some smooth, firm pressure)

yeh tried that, lol no go! seriously I think it has been attached with superglue. :(
 
Great, a ****** ear infection and swollen glands! No riding this weekend then :mad:

I did get a pair of K18's for 45 coins on the Bay though :D They'll replace my Juicy 7's if anyone is interested?
 
I don't suppose anyone on here would want a set of Avid 3 Juicy white brakes? You can have them for P&P which will be close to £10.

They came off my Scott Scale, they are a bit dirty, plenty of life in the pads I do believe, bear in mind the cables may not fit due to coming off a hard tail.

I'm hopefully moving and rather sell them off on other forums, would see if they would benefit anyone on here first.

Apologies, I realise I shouldn't advertise outside of MM but hopefully this will be OK.

Not with rotors btw sorry, I'll try and grab a pic after.
