I can't work out if it's dry or just frozen. Conditions on Monday were amazing! Grippier even than when it's dry!

Is Craig really on a medium? His riding position is so aggressive wonder if he can't do that on a larger bike. Impressive shit.

It might appear to the casual observer that they are violating the lockdown rules in place in the UK currently. Should we (and sponsors) expect pro riders to set an example on such things or does no-one care if they break the rules to get some sweet footage?

Could you imagine the possibility of this footage having been captured in the past and not during the current lockdown?

I didn't say they were breaking lockdown rules, I said it appears that way. I was asking a question on how people viewed this and if they should be 'setting an example' or not, I was not making a judgement. Though I would point out that an Instagram post from Steve Peat makes it appear likely that filming took place five days ago. Some might argue this is their 'workplace' and they can't work from home. Interested to see what people think.

What is lockdowns rules about going to work. Cause at the end of the day everyone involved in this vid is either a pro mtber or photographer. Doing advertising for their respective employers.

Indeed, it's probably reasonable to say this is their workplace and they definitely can't work from home (unless they have some backyard trails). I do think that there might be some people watch this and think 'if they can ride in a group why can't we'

Dude r u trying to be funny? I can’t believe you would even try to call them out, so many assumptions being made I can’t even count, don’t ass-u-me anything especially in times like this. These guys are amazing riders I mean who else can create a video I can’t stop watching based on a trial of about 100 feet of trail!!! Keep up the amazing work guys and your sponsors are lucky to have you👍💯

Sorry that you think the question is dumb. Maybe I can attempt to ask it in a more articulate way and hopefully get a more constructive response. Some pro riders on YouTube have gone to great effort to demonstrate their strict adherence to lockdown rules (possibly helping reinforce the rules), whereas this video takes a different approach and provides a momentary escape from lockdown. Considering that both ways could be well within the rules; which do you think is the best message to viewers?
