    I also blogged about this ride: hunt.style/2018...
    I couldn't take a mountain biking trip to Crested Butte and not ride Trail 401! I've always heard so much about it, so it was great to finally get to ride it!
    It's not the greatest trail in the world, let's be honest. But this is the roots of mountain biking! It certainly was fun! I also got to ride it with hero dirt, since it had rained all day the day before!

    Great video man. This was my wife and my first mtb trip. We had just gotten into the sport and was so excited to visit Colorado. I had a pretty good/ bad get off on an easy stretch of this trail but on a fairly steep off camber. Hard to keep your eyes on the trail with that scenery though!

    Hey man,
    Great video, thanks.
    planning to do the 401 in July, quick question, I am guessing you started climbing in that parking lot (where you finished), what place (name) is that, is it a trailhead?
    Thanks.

      Yes, it's just past the town of Gothic.

  • @hartwood9078
    @hartwood9078 Před 5 lety

    Nice video! I just rode Lupine a few days ago. How does the 401 compare for climbing and technical difficulty? 401 is on my list for next time. Thanks!

    • @huntstyle
      @huntstyle  Před 5 lety +1

      I didn't ride Lupine when I was there, but there isn't really anything technical on 401, it's all flow. The climb up the road isn't bad, then it gets steep once you get onto the singletrack. I walked a lot of that part.

    • @huntstyle
      @huntstyle  Před 5 lety

      Don't get too caught up on the brand, as they all make great bikes. I suggest you demo whatever you're looking to buy first, because geometry makes a big difference in the feel of the bike, and it's going to be different for everyone. But the rider is far more important than the bike, especially for a recreational rider. You're not going to notice a difference with different bikes, other than the geometry.
