- My girlfriend isn't the most confident biker, but today she plans to overcome her fears and conquer an 80km stretch on the Kettle Valley Rail Trail (KVR) from Kelowna (Myra Canyon) to Penticton BC. Let's see if I'm a hero for planning this trip or wind up in the dog house!
Hope you enjoy a little change of pace. I'll be back to skiing in the next upload!

Laura scraped up, long ride, scary zombie tunnels RATTLESNAKES and the weirdest looking snow I've ever seen! Ohh, that's dirt? Is that the dryer darker from of snow perhaps? lol All jokes aside you guys are awesome. I think you two deserve some alone time and a nice quiet romantic dinner for two on me. ❤ God Bless!
Thanks Andy! Lauras going to be stoked about a surprise dinner. Maybe something a little more gourmet than PBJ and liquid courage 😂
@@riseandalpine hahaha! She deserves it for sure!
Glad that Laura was ok! Good to see you came prepared with a first aid kit.
My favorite video clip: 11:29 mark = coming to the end of the tunnel super dark tunnel, Laura "I think I see light", James: "thank God we see light!' then the Hallelujah chorus kicks in!!!!!!!! The Hallelujah music clips are my fav. You got video editor extraordinaire perfect placement skill for them!!!
Thanks Ted 🙏
Wow to scenic views on Kettle valley bridges, super sweet!
The views are the best
That yawn at 3:49 was absolutely contagious!
It gotcha eh 😂
Oh my love those Myra Canyon trestles. I have done part of that but not all the way to Penticton. Wow awesome that you saw a rattlesnake!
Glad you’ve been to Myra too. So cool!
Honestly man your posts sometimes do more than you think, I had to depart from the mountains for summer work and leave alot behind, it's comforting knowing and seeing its all still going to work out ❤🤙
Appreciate hearing that man. So glad my videos help ya keep your head up. Life’s always taking twists and turns so you just gotta enjoy every season.
I rolled over snake directly on the other side of the lake, climbing the KVR to summerland. Good job Laura.
No way eh. I guess the snakes are super common. Freaky!
@@riseandalpine they like to soak in the sun . They mean no harm .
5:20 the views are beautiful tdy
That is a fun ride, did it a few years ago. After many hours and finally seeing the lake it is still super far once tired.
Great ride and scenery. Kudos to intrepid Laura. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it. Laura is the best 😍
I vote that James is a hero for planning this trip!!! No dog house for James.
I gotta say, you two are a cute couple! Laura is definitely a trooper.
Such beautiful scenery! Those mountains are spectacular!
Thanks! Mountains and trestles are so cool!
This is such a great ride! Done it many times.
Isn’t it awesome! This was my second time and loved it all the same. Glad I could finally get Laura out on it!
@@riseandalpine is it a loop? How do you get back to wherever you parked?
There was your chance at 6:14 for a pond skim this year!! 😄
🤣
I'm all for pow turn and ski shred videos but I looove a good bike adventure video! Always appreciate how much effort you put into these. That trail has been on my bucket list for a while now, looks like a great time and it gets me stoked for some more pedaling in the future myself! If you ever decide to hit up the bike park in whistler, I might know a guy...
You might know a guy eh 😂. Stoked you liked seeing me get up to a different kind of adventure. Hope you’re enjoying the start to the bike season!
Nice ride, obstacles, scenery, dark tunnels, rattlesnakes, pretty girlfriend, this video has it all.
Thanks!
Nice! I literally just watched your older version of the KVR with MamaAlpine last week!
Chester Copperpot!
MsAlpine is such a delight. Great to see her back on the channel, back in the adventures. Dodging rattlers, sustaining a flesh wound. What a trooper.
MsToboggan once got a mountain bike handlebar end, with no end cap - straight up, open, aluminium handlebar tube - through her external oblique.
Skewered, cored, and hollowed out.
Like a cork from a wine bottle.
Kept riding, and bleeding somewhat profusely, for the rest of the day (several hours of riding) before someone else noticed (I was not there that day), and then straight to the ER.
Still has a perfectly round keloid from the "incident".
It was her first time mountain biking. And she has continued to ride for the last 15 years or so since.
That looks like a fantastic trail to try. Falling off bikes is no fun, not a "soft" landing like skiing. I've jumped over the handlebars, polevault style,for a puffadder(a dead one) in South Africa. Hope her knee feels well soon so you can do more cycle spelunking...cylunking
Looking out my living room window and what do I see? Just two people climbing outta the back of a truck. 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Another great video! Keep them up! I absolutely love the skiing vids, but its always nice to have a bit of variety!!
Thanks 🙏
the longest bike ride I've done is the "Murray to the mountains rail trail" it's a nice trail here located in the alpine area of Victoria! I did 50 Kilometres of it! And seeing you do 80 Kilometres inspires me!
Super cool! Maybe I’ll check that one out one day.
You guys kick ass.
Chocolate Rain!!!!
That's so cool guys. You guys gotta bike the Canmore trails! Or head over to Takkakaw Falls! Just an idea.
Heck yes to the Legacy Trail! ( I haven't biked to Takkakaw Falls, a.k.a. no diss there)
Great idea! We love hiking in Canmore. We did a great trail over a few glaciers near the Takkakaw falls a few years ago and loved it. The rockies are the best.
Thanks for trimming bike paths in Surrey!
Doing the lords work 😂
Laura is such a trooper
100%
Sweet ride!
What were your start and finish points? Would love to find section for day trips along KVR.
We started at Myra Canyon and Finished in Penticton. My parents have done the whole thing and this is one of the best sections according to them.
Heck ya guys!!!! Great video!!!
Thanks!!🙏
You done this ride a couple of years ago? That's great I will do it to. Stay in the OK the weather here in Vancouver is the s****** No summer. Can wait for the snow to come.......
Yup - loved it so much I wanted to show Laura. Believe it or not I was up in the mountains yesterday skiing a couloir with a little bit of fresh snow June 16th. That video should be out next week.
FYI, we have officially camped in the back of a Toyota Sequoia. And I do sleep nekked in it.
Hahaha awesome!
How did you get to Myra Canyon trailhead from Penticton? Is there a group shuttle that can take you there?
That is the missing link. Hopefully he'll share how he got to their starting spot near Kelowna.
We parked in Penticton and rented bikes/got a shuttle from Hoodoo Adventures. They’ll drop ya off there (myra canyon) so you can bike back to Penticton 🤟
Alright thanks for responding!
what bike ride is this? id like to do this myself this summer
KVR from myra canyon to penticton
McDonalds need to stop. LOL...good lord.
They need to stick to what they know. Big Mac's and Heat Attacks
Hey man, I think you should change your helmet. There’s a visible dent in the shell that’s quite big.
Oh good shout thanks!
I think Johnny Cash's classic song "I Saw The Light" would have worked as well for coming to the end of the tunnel super dark tunnel : Music videos of "I saw the light" = czcams.com/video/vtLYJ4STuXY/video.html or czcams.com/video/8B3fa0mjXQ4/video.html
100% I wish I could use popular songs instead of just non-copyright tunes
Ugh, bike falls are just so $%#@# crappy. Hope she's ok. The rattlesnakes are much worse in the Osoyoos area, ugh, under every rock
She’s all good! Just scrapes and bruises. I never knew there were so many rattlesnakes out there…. Not going to be moving any rocks 😂
Rattlesnakes that close to the Ocean?
They were not near the ocean.
We were actually in the interior of BC about 4 hours drive from the coast!
*Gravel Biking
Same guy who corrects peoples grammar 😂🤣
@@riseandalpine Mountain view Biking? lmao
