This excellent little video spends the first minute and a half telling an ancient tale about dragons battling for control of the world, while giving viewers some beautiful shots of the landscapes of Wales to go with the narration.
With that prologue out of the way however, it transitions nicely to a short mountain biking film that follows rider Blake Samson as he goes flying along on some amazing looking singletrack at breakneck speeds. I don’t know how many of the of the mountain bike trails in Wales look like this, but if this video is any indication, I need to add it to my list of places to ride.
