While browsing around the interweb last weekend I came across two video lectures that as cyclists and mountain bikers, you may well be interested in. The videos come from a website called ‘Do Lectures’ which is a conference held in Builth Wells every year.
The first video is by the Godfather of Welsh MTB trail centres, Dafydd Davies. He explains how he developed Coed-y-Brenin trail centre and how official centres have grown out of Forestry Commission land. Fascinating for anyone truly interested in where the trail centre has come from and where it is going. Be warned, you’ll need forty mins to watch in full, but it’s well worth it.
The second is a from a cyclist and Author called Rob Penn. Rob talks about building his perfect bicycle, and goes into details of the history of the bicycle. A shorter lecture this time, just under 22mins, but again, well worth a listen.
