"Discovering the perfect trail in the forest, in the ultimate state of flow – you know you're at one with the world. Soaking up the clean night air as you look over the lights of Dumfries on a night ride, realising you are truly alive at that one moment in time. Embracing the fear as you launch from a drop at Ae forest, surprised by the 'whoop!' that escapes your lips as you land in one piece. . ."
