- As you probably know, Eric and I have been riding and filming off and on together for a few years now, but normally all this riding has happened on his home turf in British Columbia, Canada. Not today though! Eric, Yuka, Antoine and Isabelle were out in my area, so I took them out to the infamous Moose Mountain. With plenty of gnar and technical jumps and features, I knew they'd have some good/fun/scary times! Check out BCPOV's channel over the next couple of weeks for their end of the story.
A huge thanks has to go out to Alberta66 for shuttling us that day. If you're looking to hit up Moose Mountain, Baseline Mountain and/or get some guiding or skills coaching, give them a shout: www.alberta66mtb.com/

Alberta looks fun! North Shore of the east!
Haha that's pretty accurate!
That kid is me The shuttle driver was Jeff and my instructor was Logan
You sent it Nick! Nice work. Now go buy knee pads so I stop worrying about you 😂
That was a fat gap man 👊
Hey cool story bro 😎
Wait I’m a lil confused so where you the one who did the drop for the first time? I did it once and I almost died well I fell off during the air part sadly
Molly summerrock yup that was me
Thanks for showing us around! Moose was amazing! Now to get back into the edit cave! 😳
BCpov I was the one that road with you I was on the black giant glory downhill bike who did the middle drop in my instructure was Logan and the driver was Jeff
You bet! Glad you had a good time. Now get back in the cave 😂
Hi BCpov! I’m a huge fan and I’m excited for your vid on Thursday!
@@nickrichardson1556 i7 ysss
Happy to say that I was the 69th of this comment
Ha I was hiking up canyon creek when you were riding just saw my truck in the back the grey mega cab.
I love Moose! Its a 25 min drive for me from south Calgary. 🤩
It's so good!
I live in Calgary and moose mountain is an hour a way so stoked to see the trails featured on your channel
It's so nice to have a trail system like this so close by.
@@TheLoamRanger I found contra whilst I was in fernie by watching one your videos, glad we did. Stoked to see you riding my local trails!
Would be cool if you had a little label in the corner of the screen for each trail you are riding on, great video!
Good idea atleast at the start of each trail. 👌
48 and just getting back into biking. Oh my goodness this video intimidates the heck out of me. Having said that, I just want to get out and get better. Seriously incredible videos sir. Thank you for sharing.
Cheers! The best part about mountain biking is that in the middle of a great ride, everyone truly has equal amounts of fun no matter what level they’re at. Getting on two wheels in the woods is all that matters.
I know thw feeling of having recently conquered a scary feature and towing someone else in, for that huge step up it must’ve been very rewarding to help them out. Sick video thanks for the great content!
Thanks Carson! It was a rad day on the mountain.
I think this is another GoPro affect but It always kind of looks like he gets super close to the trees and is about to hit it with his handle bars
Amon Ranger that was very, very real on those trails. Super tight trees everywhere!
Oho I can assure you trees area annohing at moose mtn 😂
Are*
Every trail is like that with 800mm bars hehe
he also looks really front heavy on jumps
Let me know if you need a guide for the Husky trails :)
that end music at 1.25 playback speed is soo good
Another awesome video showcasing our amazing country!
I really enjoy these colabs. Different riders, different perspectives, same trails. Nice!
Awesome! Moose mtn guys really put the west bragg creek builders to shame around here. Welcome to Alberta Yuka and Eric.
I have got to get up there, the trails look AMAZING!!!
I love that gap jump onto the skinny with 3 jump options at the end! That and all the wood features here looked really well done. I heard we used to have a lot more wood features at Hydrocut trails in Ontario, up high in the trees, but they were torn down in the name of safety when the trails became official :( Great riding as usual! :)
Awesome video as usual. Love this sort of content. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great combo of Bikers: Loam Ranger ,Eric, Yuka, Antoine and Isabelle
It was a great time!
some great confidence riding there , but also a good reminder at the start to not get carried away when showing friends your favourite trails , so easy to just send it a little too hard
Thanks! And yes, absolutely. Don't want to get carried away on the first lap.
Looks like a great time there in Alberta!
You changed something! Your videos got better again, feels quicker and more dynamic
11:56 I was waiting for Eric to comment on the case marks on the first planks on that landing. A week ago you could still see the dirt/tread mark of whoever got real lucky recently 😅
Nice riding guys!...
That's nice to see those guys come to Alberta and ride the terrain we have to offer. Great stuff.🤙
For sure!
@@TheLoamRanger i hit moose mountain on the new hardyail you can check it on matthew's channel
You set the bar for both storytelling and video editing. And the mountain biking is pretty good, too.
So true 🙂
I appreciate that!
Cool! I subscribe to Eric & Yuka's channels as well! Have to have something to watch while I'm working dreaming about my Ibis unicorn I ordered in January that I have yet seen. Cheers!
Great video!! That as to be one of the best trails in this hemisphere
Agreed! Wait... which trail?? They’re all so good.
@@TheLoamRanger sorry i should have specify, TD is the trail i was referring to.
Brother I missed the fall video. KNAR nose dive, hope that shoulder heals up quickly for ya!!
Sick bike and great jumps
Thanks!
Wow so nice jump so awesome trail mtb
Been here since your pole build at United. Crazy to see your progression. I remember when the drop on tea kettle scared you.
You're telling me, that you've never ridden the gully?! But you said there was loam!!!!! 😅
I know! Shameful.
Man those trails look fun!!
They're so good! Hopefully I can show you around the area some day.
@@TheLoamRanger If Canada will ever have us again... haha
Cheers to you guys, Good stuff. I'm working on a new trail In Campbell River that starts past Radar hill and will eventually make it all the way back to town. My trail bud just snapped his achilles tendon so I'm doing it on my own now... first section is nearly done (my second to last vid on here) Just brought my bike to it for the first time yesterday Ha some climbs will take an Ebike but if it wasn't a challenge it wouldn't be fun ;)
That sounds awesome! Best of luck with the rest of the build.
You are awesome thanks for the vid bro
Thanks for watching!
I always bike from west bragg creek to moose mountain with a friend we park our cars at each parking lot and make a while day of doing trails.
Also, didn't know you were from alberta :)
How big is that big drop on Race of Spades? I really enjoy both perspectives in that ride. You, and Eric.
just bought a bike am so excited to ride!!!
I wanna see you ride the black line on Toothless!!
Reid McClure I’ve never seen it! Whats it like?
@@TheLoamRanger steep, rocky, loose as hell. It's legit. Probably one of the most tech sections anywhere in AB.
Hey Ryan, just wondering if this was shot on Quark stabilizer or a 3 axis gymbal? Cheers
Berta boysssss
Must be awesome to be able to tow people in to that gap jump when it was such a huge white whale for you in the past. Great trails and great edit
It was a little surreal actually haha. Felt great though!
@@TheLoamRanger I'm sure it did. Would love to make it up there someday.
10/10 riding, lovely nature. Alot of the features are too dangerous for me. 😬 Noway I would ride the resr without elbow pads, full leg protection.
what day did you go? I was just there on saturday and even though i’m a beginner, it was still very interesting to see some of the big features first hand. anyways, love the content
We were there on Wednesday. Just missed ya!
Calgary is so great with moose mountain only half an hour away
Bro I could’ve totally used another 7 to 13 minutes of nice trails with your narration behind it, gotta put those things everywhere. Keep the sd card in ya shoe!!!
Legitimately the most Albertan title I can imagine 👏...👏...👏.
G Mellway isn’t it?? I couldn’t help myself 😂
'BERTA!
Hey, do a review on that Bartlett fork..... (or have you already...?)
You should try to consciously let off the brakes early on these berms immediately following big features, get high and let the berm absorb your speed and keep you smoothly linking trail sections
I'll put that on the list. The list is long though. 😂
Yay upload from my favorite MTB channel 🙂
Thanks Monica! 💚
oooo soo very very close to home! a little farther north, you could ride the Hidden River Quarter "my families land" with me.. hint hint bro
BERTA!
I been to moose mountain before!
how come you don't run a DM stem on the dual crown? Should improve stiffness for cornering?
I would but 1) it’s hard to find a DM stem works with the OneUp bar and 2) I really like the 35mm stem length and it would be tricky to setup a 35mm DM stem and clear everything.
With getting so close to trees at high speed handguards might be a good idea. 😬
Sick
great vid , would like to have seen a rear cam shot at the start the train at 13.14.
That would have been perfect! Good call.
@@TheLoamRanger loved your 360 vid any plans on doing another ?
hows it goin is ya bikes goin good loam ranger?
Great video as normal... very disappointed with you forgetting the memory cards... I would never do anything like that....😜😂🤣
apart from every other ride... one time I even managed to forget my brain bucket...
You and me both! I actually forgot my helmet in my car earlier and didn't realize it until we were at the top of the first trail... brain no worky that day...
Ok, so you are riding a dual crown fork on your trail bike now ?!?
Seth Nicholls on my HD5, yup! I did a full vid on it actually: czcams.com/video/HKcpruXGtuM/video.html
Straight savage
Me: I can do this
Also me:😰😰
BRRR
I would not advise doing the T Dub jumps on a TW200...the rest of the trail no sweat.
woo hoo
Go to yeetmcfeet bike park in calgary south west
How come we haven't seen a video of baseline mountain yet?
i was riding this trail in the early 90s
It’s a classic!
I was at a trailhead not long ago and there were some kids there discussing who their favorite riders were. Of course, it's 2020 so they weren't talking about EWS guys or people on the UCI circuit - they were talking about CZcamsrs.
It seems pretty clear that a lot of younger and newer riders are entering the world of mountain biking via CZcams. And having a popular video and a good thumbnail seems to mandate that the theme always be "watch me survive this massive feature". As a person who has been riding at Moose for years, one thing I think a lot about is how the social media stuff is pushing a lot of inexperienced riders to get in over their heads. People see this stuff on CZcams, a platform that (as you know) never does anything justice, and soon we have another kid getting air-lifted off of T-Dub. This year has been insane with ambulances a daily sight at Moose. I worry for the future of the trails once the province clues in to the obvious trend.
This isn't a complaint by any means. Your videos are among the best out there and you're doing a great job of showcasing the area. But I'm curious if this is something CZcamsrs ever think about or struggle with. At the very least, it'd be an interesting discussion for a video ;-)
Cheers.
Beth and I talk about this often. We've also chatted about this subject with the main people at the Moose trail society and from what they've shared with me, the numbers of people in general have skyrocketed this year, with many riders being new to the sport as you mentioned, so more injuries were expected . When I put together videos like this and others, I always try to clearly show that 1) I've had to work my way up to these features, which takes years 2) I take my time looking at the feature, doing run-ups, following riders who have already done the feature many times and 3) finally attempting the feature *if* I feel I'm ready in that moment. So I feel we try our best to show the correct way to approach hitting big features/scary trails, but there will always be people who get in over their head after watching me hit this stuff, which is a bummer. They're certainly more brave than me to rush into hitting these bigger features!
116’th 😂
Bring em to beaded/mr.liftooooo
We were already talking about it! Next year.
You and Seth should do a video at berm peak
Yeah
They should
If the borders ever open up, that would be fun!
@@TheLoamRanger they aren't currently open with Canada? Eh, just drive across on a country road an noone will care or notice😂😂
I am from Alberta yeyeye
Come to edmonton, there's nothing here (jk)
Daniel, I live in Edmonton around 142st and 118ave. I have noticed in riding around the area, lots of HUGE buildings that are empty/not occupied. An intelligent person with some business savvy, could make a killing. You are right. Theres nothing here. How cool would a dedicated indoor mtb park be? Have you checked out any of the "Ray's indoor mtb park" videos? If they build it, I will camp out overnight so that I can be first in line. The place would be packed in the winter. If you put this bug in the right ear, it could happen. It would be like winning the lottery.
I know it's crazy how much business they could have here, I keep busy riding river valley trails and do my best during winter.
You were fuckin shreddin today. Be careful with that bike givin you all that confidence. You're still getting bucked a bit to the side when linking 2 things as you go through all that suspension.
Thing looks great though. Your PoV clips with the black n yellow frame and dual crown fork looks aggressive. Bumble bee DH.
Cheers Teddy!
Is that a dual crown on a Ibis mojo?
Yes
It makes me giggle a bit everytime I see it.
czcams.com/video/HKcpruXGtuM/video.html :D
I dont know why but everytime i see you jump it looks like you are heavy nosediving. Is it the camera angle or you are really doing that? :)
Probably a bit of both haha. I've been slowly learning how to do whips, which has me landing nose heavy on purpose and now I can't stop :D
@@TheLoamRanger :) hope you dont over dooing it ;)
Where in Alberta is this?
This is in the Bragg Creek area, which is between Calgary and Canmore.
Isn't that the worst feeling ever when you realize you left an essential piece of camera gear in the car or at home?! Sucks about the SD card but great video nevertheless 👍
im earlyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
even the pros run out of SD storage? makes me feel better. I do that all the time haha..
Haha oh man I can't believe I forgot my other cards!
@@TheLoamRanger And the worst part is that you missed filming the best parts of Jean Guy! That new trail work they've done on the lower half of that trail is outstanding. Jean Guy might be one of my favorite trails on the mountain now. You're going to need to head back out there and film the whole thing!
Did you show him husky?
They did a pedal lap on Brothers before I got there and I believe they went and did Loamzilla the next day.
@@TheLoamRanger nice... personaly prefer That or faith healer I think they are the best trails on prairie mtn
A lot of GoPro effect on the gully
Thomas Jonker 100%
I thought the gully was called the meat grinder
Could be!
Who's Albert?
So do Antoine and Isabelle have a channel called Far Out Rides? I can never find it.
They do!
@@TheLoamRanger oh yeah, you put the link in the description. My bad for not reading through! Thanks!
Here's the real question. Oilers or Flames?
Trust the trailbuilders, eh? Yeah, I wouldn't.
Hi
Why so many links
3rd
The way things are done in Alberta is.. You drive to BC to bike.
Not with Moose Mountain on my doorstep!
Wish I was at moose that day 😔
If someone sais "you sent it deep" and you respond "did I" you probably didnt?
Sometimes on a bigger feature like that, you're just bracing for impact and so when I hit the ground, I knew I hit kinda hard, but didn't realize it was because I sent it too deep. The next run I didn't bottom out, so I hit the sweet spot.
lemme know if your dropping into calgary
Hi Loam, I have been inspired by your video so I have just published a cinematic video about my last trip to Puglia, in the south of Italy, if you have a bit take a look at it and give me an opinion, it will be amazing! Thank you so much!
Any bikers in Louisville, KY who are looking to ride?
as a hardtail rider with entry level bike with a 100mm xc coil fork, how the ever living fuck do you bottom out a 200mm downhill bike. this isnt an insult it just seems unrealistic to me
First ?
2nd
Sarah Dwelle
You are ?
@@davidprice1074 no you are 2nd
Sarah Dwelle
You were 20 minutes later than me so you wouldn’t know and I checked and I was because people saying second and third but nobody said first
