Scott Laughland – At Home

October 5th, 2013

By Dominic Simmons

I am sure we all wished we had the perfect trails to ride straight out of the door. Well it looks like Scott Laughland might have just that with this ride that takes him from his home near Stirling, straight up into the hills of the Central Belt of Scotland…

“Racing and training in Europe is hard to beat but everyone has that one local trail that no matter where you have been, you look forward to returning home and getting out on. Gaining momentum through his race season and competing in the European rounds of the Enduro World Series, Scott Laughland returns home to ride his local trails after finishing in 6th place at the Ischgl European Open, Austria. Filmed by Dominic Simmons on a crisp autumnal day, the trails were dry and the sun was shining, perfect conditions to ride flat out.”

“After completing a 5 year University degree in Masters in Mechanical Engineering, Scott now plans to switch his focus to Enduro racing for 2014 where the goal is to be competitive in the World Enduro Series.”

Filmed and edited by Dominic Simmons at Dumyat near Stirling, Scotland this looks like a great little loop to ride straight from home! For more of Dominic’s films, check out his Vimeo page and Facebook page.

Scott wishes to thanks his sponsors from the 2013 season; Cube Bikes, Troy Lee Designs, Mojo/Fox, SRAM, Renthal, Gamut, crankbrothersRyno Power and Robin Ruth UK

Intense Carbine 29 Expert bike review

The Carbine 29 wants to be treated dirty and ridden hard; It wants to claw up technical trails with your heart pounding at 170bpm, and it wants to tow you down through rocky gullies on the knife edge of your ability.
