We use Slack as our workplace communication tool at Pinkbike and we have a #randoms channel that we use to share an assortment of videos and stories from all corners of the cycling world and beyond… We thought a couple of the moments from the past week were too good not to share with a wider audience, so here are some of the highlights.

Brendan Fairclough & Sam Pilgrim’s Attempt at Filming the ‘Ultimate Line’
Myself and @SamPilgrim set out to film the ultimate MTB @GoPro run.
The run had huge jumps, insanely steep shoots, backflips and urban stair sets.
The idea was to film the craziest line possible. We filmed it all on the @GoPro max joining all four features together at the end. We used our enduro mountain bikes to explore around the local area and pick out the best lines.
