Enjoy a short daydream from the office on a Monday with this nicely filmed edit from Basque MTB as they explore the rocky and mythical Mount Larun in Northern Spain.
Today my good friend Carlos and I took our Cove G-Spots up, and down, a local mountain. The descent is only around 1000m, however it is unrelentingly rocky and technical. Both climb and descent are a big physical challenge. Contrary to the soundtrack there are no “big jumps”, only normal mountain biking! The G-Spot is perfect for this, I’ve got mine kitted out with Marzocchi 55’s on the front and it really carries great speed over this technical terrain.
