Known James for a few years and he's now semi-pro and looking good for the upcoming season. Took an early morning ride at Woburn with him yesterday. Video to follow, but here's a few piccies. He's a tad quick...

I like the bottom two, particularly the second one up. Is that a fisheye lens?

Woburn looks awesome too - is there some 'aggresive XC'/trail type stuff there as well as the DH? Can't be more than about 45 minutes drive from me. smile

There is no DH lol

Its quite flat, full of dirt jumps and would be perfect for XC riding more then anything else.

10mm wide angle lens, so not quite a fisheye.

Woburn is ace. It's not a true DH at all, but there are enough short (and I mean very short) DHs for a laugh. It's on my doorstep so ideal for a pre-work ride now the weather is nicer. Lots of drops and obviously the dirt jumps at the bottom.

For XC its ace. Don't normally ride XC around where those shots were taken. Normally park up (or ride to) Bow Brickhill, up the hill and left into the woods. Then just explore.

Feel free to email me if you want more details.
