BikeRadar video of the week: Dirt Merchant, Whistler
Every week we're going to be bringing you a highlight from the footage on our BikeRadar media player. There's everything on there from trade shows to workshop tutorials, and some idiotic stunts sent in by our readers.
We'd like to get you involved too - send us your riding clips from the trail or the road. As long as you don't add any backing music you/we don't own the copyright to, we'll get your video on the player. Send your video files here.
What better than to watch some riding on the sun-drenched Dirt Merchant trail in Whistler, as ridden by MBUK's Andrew Dodd.
It was recorded using Doddy's own homemade 'boom' - a wooden construction which helps give a different perspective of the trail.
Enough said. To see the clip, press play below, and once you've finished with that, take a look at the other videos on the player. There's something quite mesmerising about these boom cam vids ... what do you think?

Awesome footage. That must be taped on pretty tight for it to stay perfectly still!
