Etherow country Park: Wow, had an absolute blast exploring the unknown ( to me ) tracks / trails of ECP today.
every turn is another turn off into another track it feels, quite exciting and can only get even better with experience and familiarity.
Had a mid ride phantom puncture ( rim pinch ) and managed to wreck my multi-tool failing to remove my rear wheel ! resulting in having to do a tube repair whilst wheel was still attached ( That was fun

).
I mainly took the conservative noob lines but managed to overcome some fearful drops lol ( the camera seriously DOESN'T show the steepness ).
Never done tracks like this and if im honest some of the lines are sketchy for my level, very rooty and extremely sharp turns with some very awkward penalties if it goes Pete Tong !!
swapped the angle to wide ( as apposed to super wide) so not sure how it fairs tbh but the footage seems to have less stabilisation than superwide but also the terrain was very very shaky!
in the actual smoother sections the camera does really well so i dunno ?
All in all i will take today as a good day and hopefully improve in future here if i can get a regular ride out at ECP.
Its a bit longer than usual and not fully processed at max quality but the 2160 is available if anybody wants to get to sleep early
much appreciation to those that do take time to view,
Cheers.
