  • If there was ever a hard enduro challenge, this was it! When you ride your bike down the side of a mountain and you can't ride back up, there's only on way to go and that's down. Without knowing if we could ride out, we headed down one of the steepest hills I've ever taken my bike.

    A lot of people really don’t understand the GoPro effect, but if something looks semi steep on GoPro you can be sure it’s insanely steep in real life. Good job riding that! 🤙

    Just started riding recently after finally being able to get a bike (still can't afford one, way too broke but my cousin bought a new one, and in his words "if I sold it the money would last a week, this way I make a family member happy and get a new riding buddy")
    I'm so addicted, and after riding mtb for years on a cheap bike, it made it a lot easier to start out since I had the basics of movement down
    Absolutely love your channel, you were a big part of my inspiration and the reason I knew the exact type of riding I wanted, not motocross, not supercross but enduro (although I've thrown in some trials skills as well)

    I can’t believe you ride through those dead branches with no goggles. Living in the PNW we have a lot those as well, every time I go mtn biking I fear getting one in my eye. On one ride I had just climbed a hill and at the top I stopped and leaned against a tree so I didn’t have to unclip, my buddy was climbing and stopped next to me but couldn’t unclip, so he fell over onto me and I couldn’t hold both of our weight so we fell towards the tree and one of those branches was coming towards my right eye. I was watching the stick that was going to put my eye out, but luckily when the stick poked me in the inner eye socket the stick went upward instead of down into the eyes. I rode away with a 2” scratch, could’ve really sucked
