Gordy's Bike Time

Short films about riding bikes and the parts that usually get cut out.
Fear. Avoidance. Confidence. Progress.
These are episodic videos.
Each one focuses on a single moment or problem.

Gordy's Bike Time

I’ve been making videos about the mental side of riding for a long time.
This is a clearer version of that.
Sunday.

Taking a bit of time before the next ride.
Not to reset fitness — to pay attention to what actually stops me starting again.

Happy New Year.
The last 12 weeks have been quiet on the bike.
Fitness lost. Motivation drifted. Posting stopped.
That wasn’t burnout or quitting — it was a reset.
I’ve been stepping back, recalibrating, and getting honest about where I am and where I want this to go. Not chasing numbers. Not forcing rides. Just laying the groundwork.
This year is about rebuilding properly — body, mindset, and momentum.
No hype. No pressure. Just consistent progress and better stories to tell.
Here’s to showing up again — a little humbler, a little hungrier.

Hey folks, sorry for the lack of uploads recently, I'm having some time off the bike. Don't worry though i'm spending my time converting the van to a fully functioning camper, which will let me ride further a field. So 2026 I'll be back and hoping to smash a great year of riding! see you soon, Gordy.

Happy New Year🥳 to you all! I have no idea what 2025 holds for me in terms of MTB, YouTube etc. I've had some massive life events over last few year (loss of both parents and one of the family dogs) so MTB hasn't been in the forefront of my life. I'm still not going to be riding as much as I would like at the beginning of 2025 as I'm trying to sort home life out! So what are my plans for 25? Well you'll have to wait and see !! But be assured I'll be out there progressing, moaning, laughing, moaning, falling off, moaning, beating my fastest times, moaning and definitely filming it all for your entertainment 😀 see you soon💪

There is going be be a bit of a delay in uploads over the next week or so. My laptop died after 9 years solid service RIP Mac book pro lol. Got myself a nice little M1 air now, wow this thing flies!!! Also major upgrade to editing software, I'm now running Final cut pro! needless to say there's a bit of a learning curve but my god after a few hours playing with it I can't believe what a step up it is from I-movie. So over the next few months as i get to grips with pro level editing software you should start seeing slicker editing and hopefully more professional looking vids! Anyhoo, look out for a short vid of me trying to ride Twitcher at Glentress for the first time, then a week or so later the full days vid should be live (and edited on the new software) Cheers and thank you all for your continued support!!
