Mark W Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Here's the latest Inspired team trip video, filmed in Barcelona this January. Things didn't go particularly smoothly in that Ali broke his collarbone the day after the tickets were booked, Sean got hurt on the first non-rainy day of riding and Danny and Duncan had to leave a few days early, but fortunately everyone got a clip or two so this video isn't just 8 minutes of footage of us rinsing the free coffee from the hostel... Now with 100% more Vimeo: Thanks to Inspired for sending us out there, we all had an awesome time EDIT: For people on mobile/in other countries where it's blocked - a Vimeo version should be up later today. Sorry for the Youtube-created inconvenience! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Bleech Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Just in time for lunch, cheers Edit: Danny can ride trials, who'd have thought it The video was fantastic, some really unique lines from everyone. Duncan's riding has a cool old school vibe to it. Filming was great as always. Look forward to putting this on the tv at home and sitting down with a couple of beers and watching it a few more times tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) So amazing. It's weird that Danny still doesn't seemed to have peaked yet, always getting better and smoother. Everything else was awesome, thought the intro was a little long though. Actually by favourite bit might have been Sean W's wall/body ride thing Edited February 21, 2014 by bikeperson45 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatJsy Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Literally turned up a few days after you lot left! Rad video, makes me want to go back so bad! Looks like you didn't really venture out to the other parts of the city though, there's so much stuff just a few train stops away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 We rode a few more spots than shown in the video, but didn't necessarily get anything filmed on them. It rained the first day, Sean ate shit the second day which kind of threw our plans for that day a bit, and that left us with a pretty limited timeframe to get clips with Duncan and Danny before they flew to Munich so we were pretty conservative and rode spots we knew just to make the most of it. Ali and I had an explore further out though and found some fun stuff - everyone always goes on about how much stuff there is to ride in Barca but 'til you get there and just keep finding more and more spots everywhere it's hard to really put into perspective Cheers for the comments though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 No Sterling, no Inspired Youtube videos - the "Yes" campaign have got a shitload of work to do to put some positive spin on that. Vimeo version should be up later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross McArthur Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 So glad it was a YouTube link. Vimeo and work dont get along. Intro Idea was cool with the Passports. Duncs first few lines were so good! No hops or wobblling around on the bike. It was good to see Danny riding street again. As much as Imaginate was amazing, it left me feeling a little empty inside because of the lack of pure street. Gutted there wasnt more of Sean! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew62 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 It started with tremolo and only got better from there. You really stepped it up on this one Mark in my opinion. The graphics were much slicker, the music choice spot on and the whole vibe was brilliant. I agree with Ross, it was nice to see Danny's riding on street, which I find much more interesting than a staged environment, but more than that it was cool to see all the Inspired riders together - something that has long been needed. Despite the issues you've mentioned it is one hell of a video that's been made! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Well, I kind of hated the shit out of Youtube before, but from looking at their ContentID system and the way that false claims are made, I hate them even more Thanks for all the comments though, really appreciate it. Glad you liked the edit/graphics Matt, I wanted to try something a little different - glad that it seems to have worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thee Damon Watson Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 That was a ridiculous riding level, some of that i was struggling to comprehend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.KYDD Posted February 21, 2014 Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Not quite as much footage of Ali as I was hoping for, but an awesome edit all the same. I HAVE to ask though, when will team Trialtech in Antwerp Part 2 be out?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted February 21, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2014 Hopefully pretty soon now this is out of the way! And yeah, I think Ali was pretty disappointed too. Pump tracks = danger! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
