  • A proper rip around the Santa Monicas fun gravel roads and singletrack. As with all these rides you have gotta get down one way or another, and there's nothing like a Trailer descent and then finishing at the beach.
    Thanks to JULIEN for the follow film!

    Thanks Safa and Julien for this one. These rides make me smile every time. I'm thinking you need to start a series where you travel the world doing these rides, Greece, Spain, Italy....you get the idea. Keep doing what you're doing and thank you for all the efforts you put into it.

      same lol and when he was like 'thats the end of the life or death stuff' it was the perfect description. In fact i probably wouldnt even hike that trail (the car crash section) because id be too worried about being run over by someone on a bike.

    “Who is it that provides a person with the obstacles he needs in order to experience his highest limits? His opponent, of course! Then is your opponent a friend or an enemy? He is a friend to the extent that he does his best to make things difficult for you. Only by playing the role of your enemy does he become your true friend. Only by competing with you does he in fact cooperate! ... In this use of competition it is the duty of your opponent to create the greatest possible difficulties for you, just as it is yours to try to create obstacles for him. Only by doing this do you give each other the opportunity to find out to what heights each can rise.” - The Inner Game of Tennis.

    • @SAFABrian

    • @mrbubblebuns3994

      normally people run a thinner tire out back. like a 2.6 up front and 2.5 in the back for mtb for instance.
