VICTOR LUCAS, PHOTOGRAPHER & FILMMAKER
When mbr asked me to pick my favourite trail, my first reaction was: “It’s the one I haven’t ridden yet.” But that’s not really a very good answer. So I have picked a trail that sticks in my memory most from the last few years – a fairly short section of singletrack, buried deep in the woods of the Spanish Pyrenees. It’s near the tiny village of Nocito, which has an official population of 28 people. There’s no bike park or trail centre, but this endless wilderness contains a huge network of hiking trails.

Five top venues to keep the nippers entertained this summer
CANNONDALE MOTERRA NEO CARBON 2
It’s got more suspension tunes than a Hitchcock movie, but will this Moterra thrill us or chill us?
100% GLENDALE GLASSES
When it comes to eyewear, having a large lens not only offers a lot more protection from trail splatter, it puts the frames further out from your field of view, allowing you to focus on the terrain in front of you. The Glendale is absolutely vast, and actually has a lens size akin to a full downhill goggle, so you literally can’t see the top or sides of the frame.
DMR STAGE 2 MTB RAIL SADDLE
DMR's new Stage 2 MTB Rail is one of those new/old products. The shape and construction are identical to the existing Oi Oi saddle, but the company has wrapped it in a new skin and added some harder-wearing reinforcement to the edges. It's also toned down the lairy graphics; this saddle only comes in plain black.

Has tech taken the hard work and fun out of mountain biking, or should we embrace evolution and roll with it?
