Pete headed up to Glassie Bike Park near Aberfeldy to check out Endura athlete Kriss Kyle’s Dreamline as it hosted its opening jam.
It’s not often that a rider looking for a spot to build a line and a venue looking for somethign similar comes along, but that’s exactly what happened with Kriss Kyle and Glassie Bike Park.
Thanks to support from Endura, the dream became reality and Greg Joliffe spend a month hand-crafting Kriss’ Dreamline. Friday saw the line open to the public with an evening jam.

The man himself, Kriss Kyle, in the Scottish sunshine, ready to show the riders that rocked up to Glassie his Dreamline.I don’t know why I was surprised, but boy can Kriss boost the living daylights out of jumps. More air than anyone else and they weren’t exactly messing about either. Dreamline’s final jump has quite the backdrop. It almost seems like you could give the bars a good tug off the lip and you’d land in someone’s front garden.Steezy by name, steezy by nature. Leo Smith AKA LandoSteezy making things look pretty straightforward on his prototype Calibre full sus.Endura branding also helps you keep tabs on what the wind is doing in terms of speed and direction. These jumps are hefty enough that flight time can be interrupted by the wrong moving air.Endura rider Charlotte Thompson made the long trek up from way down south to get sendy on the Dreamline and wasted no time racking up the air miles.Daniel Gibson rocked up and immediately started boosting jumps and throwing legs off his bike like he was trying to get rid of them.Nyasha Makusha had been bothering Leo all day about letting him flip his bike. The deal was that when Leo was done riding, he could go daft. After a spill in the berm on his first go, Nyasha clean flipped the quarter pipe like he was going for some milk. The beauty of the Dreamline is that you can ride it in so many different ways. Some folk used the quarter pipe as a berm, some as a quarter pipe. Plenty of folk were opting for a cheeky tyre slide.Style. Some folk have it. Others don’t. Kriss Kyle probably has enough that he could lend you some.
