im in some serious need of suggestions for good biking vids to get my passion back, this season has seen me barely pick up my bike and im feeling well  p'd at myself for it,so i think im in need of some vids to slap on when im not out on the bike to keep my biking mojo flowing,so can any of you recommend me some good ,recent , freeride and DH (but not racing) style vids??? good choons, good flowing trails and smooth editing are my requirements really. to give you an idea i loved Follow me and of course the old school classics such as chain spotting and Dirt    lol.
So? please do....

(oh online vids are a no go cos my internet sucks and is slooooow,so i will be buying dvds)

I have seen/owned most vids previous to the last 18months,so any new out in that period would be good,or some lesser known older gems?

You've probably seen it already but "Follow Me" is the only one that gets me pumped, all the others seem generic with shit sound tracks.

3 Minute Gaps is good, but parts of it are just clips from The Atherton Project

Red Bull Rampage - The Evolution 2010?http://www.surfsurfsurf.co.uk/mountain_bike_dvds/red_bull_rampage_'the_evolution'_2010_dvd_blu-ray_combi_pack

Its prob not your thing and wouldnt exactly get you pumped but the best bike film Ive seen recently is Chasing Legends, following Mark Chavendish and the HTC road cycling team.
Its so beautifully shot its simply stunning, gives you a good appreciation of what those guys go through on the TdF as well

Totally agree Bong. Not been out on my bike properly for ages. I bet I can count on my hands the amount of times I've been out this year. I need some serious motivation.

I will agree about 3 minute gaps, not all I was looking for.  To be honest I still find clay porters previous offering the tipping point a better film to make you get up and ride.  I haven't seen much else that's out at the minute, sorry, not much help.

There  are hundreds of 'Joe Public' clips on YouTube that are more than good enough to get you out riding!

Tip. Don't stop riding  Smiley
