@@mattyaztec i do apologise ... gosh so after a bit of digging i saw that the prince and princess of wales lived on the Bodorgan estate on the isle of Anglesey off the coast of north wales, which has an outstandingly beautiful 126 mile coastal path.... however the royals and estate holders stopped the continuation through their a land and blocked off all of the coastal path through their private land, and also William and Kate never bothered to learn the language or integrate with the local culture , so we have something in common! the royals did exactly the same thing to the native's of canada, but it got a bit more horrid .... diolch yn fawr iawn am eich amser

Camera is helmet-mounted, so you can tell the poor guy is looking down instead of ahead. Combine that with going too slow, constantly stopping, too little spacing between riders.... Not the way to get up a steep, loose path. Great learning experience, keep at it! Traction control on, stand up, head and eyes up, focus on your desired line ahead, and avoid stopping.

Hardly, and you should have used the first gear but only because you are starting on a steep slope and you were gassing the Norden as if you were in first gear. When you start on a slope in second gear you have to give it the bees the right way, you have to give it more throttle as you let out the clutch feel the release, the bike starts moving than you give it more just to have it level out. Then you don’t stop, you stand up on the pegs lean in to the back a bit and steer the best you can, do everything possible not to brake traction on lose gravel on a down slope.
