As someone who was 11 y/o and fall of the bike and broke my arm ( pretty bad ! both bones, it was at 90 degree angle - 3 months with a cast and almost 2 months of recovery ) even seeing my arm bend the second I fall, I went to see if the bike had any damage , the bike was 3 days old and for the time was close to a dream bike for me and the best my parents could afford, for me the bike had more value than my arm literally !
despite having shoulder surgery 2020 has been my best year yet pushed my limits on my bike learnt how to make all sorts of awesome food and now its 5days till I get to spend Christmas and New Year with my parents sister brother n law and nephew i really have loved every challenge this year has thrown at me
It's a dream to just ride my bike off a trail. But the chances of that happening is less than the chances of me 200 years old. And I'm really sad about that sometimes. But in February, a game comes out that I can pre-order for my birthday. (riders republic) This way I can still experience the feeling of my dream virtually.
I think that it's pretty cool that you guys happened to run into some Army guys and heard them training and firing rounds off. What I wouldn't give to experience biking and saying hello to my fellow brothers and servicemen. Great vid as always man. :)
I said this in the actual build video but I think you should name the step up berm jump thing “slash and berm” because it is right by a slash pile, it is basically a really big berm and slash and burn means being aggressive about something and doing it quick .
Well... my 2020 hasn’t been great... my grandmother (on my dads side) has COVID right now, and my grandparents (on my moms side) are on the verge of getting it... and one of our cats died this year due to being hit on the road... he died in my dads hands while driving him to the pet emergency room... 2020 has been hard on me... and I wish that this next year will be very positive.
When you go back to Florida, you have to check out Alafia River State Park and Balm Boyette. Both are very close to each other and may be connected by the time you return. Ridgeline at Balm Boyette is my favorite trail in FL.
Glad you are finally back in business Eric and share your beautiful trail experiences! I really like how you approach new features and challenges and sharing your though process. Keep it up 👍🏼
Hey Eric I want to let u know ur not alone I broke my rust and hand doing backyard jumps during lockdown in Australia and it’s been so hard getting back to 100% and I haven’t even tried doing jumps. I wish ur journey well
All the different pieces from the whole year together in 1 video. Just an awesome video and soo cool to see all the progression😃🤘🏻looking forward to more awesome content of you both😃
2020 was a crazy year. I did get COVID but I made a lot of awesome progress on my backyard trail. Also my most productive video creation year so far. Here is to 2021.
That soldier walking thing was actually a race and my dad was in it he’s in the army so it’s actually an army so you’re wrong it was her at my dad and my dad‘s best friend was in it
I was in San Fran on March 12, it was chaos trying to get home. What a crazy year and thanks for sharing your story! Still bummed I missed you in July! Next time dude!
I fractured my wrist in 2 spots and my elbow right on the joint. Had to have surgery to get some rods in my elbow to keep them together as well as a pin in my wrist to keep it steady. Hopefully I'm riding again in a month or two.
Lol I remember when i fell off my bike, it was the rockiest and worst injury i got lol, it was going almost all down, this is why im scared of mountain biking now in tight areas.
Some day, if you come back down to Florida, it would be great if you could come all the way down to Virginia Key. That’s a really cool trail system. The best use possible of a limited space. Those new, high pivot bikes of yours look awesome. Have they continued to perform?
Was my first year on a fully, so especially good year for me as i got it right before the epidemic started. Spent the whole summer on it and i loved the progression and fun.
Hey Eric, had a question for you and would love your response! Been a longtime fan of your channel and watched your transition from an enduro style bike to "trail" with the Druid. I am thinking of doing a similar switch from a 160/160 to a 135/150 Fugitive LT. I know this isn't the bike you ride. But my question is, have you ever wished for more rear travel the past year? Will you always be a "trail bike" rider now? Any input would be much appreciated
Since you stopped in Redding on your way back home you must’ve went through Mt Shasta. Next time you ever go through check out some trails. Sisson Callahans a good one
“I hope your 2020 has been mostly positive” lol my 2020 sucked I broke my collar got a kidney stone on thanksgiving day which was the worst pain I have ever experienced and my grampa died alone in a nursing home. but other than that it was ok my job never shutdown, also thanks for your vids I did binge watch a bunch of them while I was injured.
@bc pov you should continue the trail building in my opinion you should build 2 or 3 ramps next to each other and it is smallest to biggest so you can choose
8:10 falls from 10 feet steep downhill
*You got my bike* ?
Ikr😂 after you crash and fall far, you got my bike??
She is a badasss!!
That’s what I do as well, I’m like “I don’t care about the fall, just where is my bike and is it damaged? That thing was expensive”

When is the trail build coming back?😁
I believe the Fraser Valley MTB Association has been working on the trail when he was gone. It may be close to completion by now?? Not sure though.
Winter dinges
Eric: Yes
@@MrSweetvidz I think he said that since it was winter and there is cold weather and snow, he won’t be working on it till spring
“I hope your 2020 has been mostly positive” very poor choice of words lol.
Negative so far😂(nocking on wood😁)
I recovered from it but now i have breathing problems
I get it lol
It really was
😬
Not gonna lie 2020 has been a pretty awesome year!! I bought my first MTB because of channels such as yourself. Bring on 2021. :D
10:51 "big mudafu-" LMAO I was laughing so hard
"Only difference? Mine would be legal" 😂
lol
they are legal tho
@@torrenweeres2124 not sanctioned
I bought a new mountain bike and as well as a new road bike. He is just awesome at riding . Love you bro from India.😸
Which 1 did u get?
I enjoyed the trail building. Can't wait to see more of that.
i agree
It’s so nice seeing you out and about again!
Eric, my 10 year old daughter and I would like to invite you and YUKA to come ride with us in Flagstaff, AZ
Yes that would be awsome.

I remember when the enticer video came out.
It’s was so enticing
I saw BCpov and yuka on "How to buy a mountain bike".
I think that it's pretty cool that you guys happened to run into some Army guys and heard them training and firing rounds off. What I wouldn't give to experience biking and saying hello to my fellow brothers and servicemen. Great vid as always man. :)
5:30 i dont think hes ever gonna finnish that trail
Yeah 😂
After a lot of Sweden and hard work I'm sure they can Finnish.
My birthday just happened to be on the day covid was declared as a pandemic

These are probs the best type of videos ever
@00:30 recognize Knoxville with the wall bern in Devil's Racetrack. Nice... Great video...
I'm from Brazil and I'm learning English by watching your videos, thank you very much
I really love your video Eric especially your style of voice over, keep doing what you do because you are great at it!

when you live ten minutes away from moose mountain
I have been building features in my backyard.
Well... my 2020 hasn’t been great... my grandmother (on my dads side) has COVID right now, and my grandparents (on my moms side) are on the verge of getting it... and one of our cats died this year due to being hit on the road... he died in my dads hands while driving him to the pet emergency room... 2020 has been hard on me... and I wish that this next year will be very positive.
For me 2020 has been my favorite year yet, I progressed so so much for just starting in July
honestly for me it was the same. I had the oppertunity to pick up so many new skills, and the time to work towards progressing in them.
When you go back to Florida, you have to check out Alafia River State Park and Balm Boyette. Both are very close to each other and may be connected by the time you return. Ridgeline at Balm Boyette is my favorite trail in FL.
Glad you are finally back in business Eric and share your beautiful trail experiences! I really like how you approach new features and challenges and sharing your though process. Keep it up 👍🏼
Thanks for making 2020 a little more bearable. Glad to see you are back on the bike. Here's to 2021!!
Love your Videos. Keep it up. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Hey Eric I want to let u know ur not alone I broke my rust and hand doing backyard jumps during lockdown in Australia and it’s been so hard getting back to 100% and I haven’t even tried doing jumps. I wish ur journey well
I remember back in quarantine I was always watching your videos while at home and eating lunch and stuff. Good times
All the different pieces from the whole year together in 1 video. Just an awesome video and soo cool to see all the progression😃🤘🏻looking forward to more awesome content of you both😃

What a fantastic vid! Had a pretty similar 2020 experience, broken wrist and all. Stoked for whats to come in 2021!
4:25 love this!!!
Great summary Eric. Thanks and good riding for 2021. Ride on.
Kicking horse ma dude!! my dad loved that trail when he was out there in 95. Golden is so beautiful.
Great way to spend 2020. My wife and I did some covid roadtrips this summer too, even hit some of the same spots. We love Miki's Magic!
Really glad you did the trail build videos? It’s how I found your channel
That soldier walking thing was actually a race and my dad was in it he’s in the army so it’s actually an army so you’re wrong it was her at my dad and my dad‘s best friend was in it
Can you make it readable, please?
As a person who lives in BC i have to say that it is beautiful everywhere you go. Other than Vancouver
Thanks for the videos in 2020. I look forward to following your adventures this year. You’ve inspired me to get out and ride.
I'm pretty sure that berm peak and matt jones's backyard are legal.
Not sanctioned
Two things this was posted on my birthday and every time I watch you my heart fills with so much joy keep going!
These videos have helped me wait for my mountain bike
I was in San Fran on March 12, it was chaos trying to get home. What a crazy year and thanks for sharing your story! Still bummed I missed you in July! Next time dude!
Thanks for these videos mate! So good to watch them
I fractured my wrist in 2 spots and my elbow right on the joint. Had to have surgery to get some rods in my elbow to keep them together as well as a pin in my wrist to keep it steady. Hopefully I'm riding again in a month or two.
Mate hope your 2021 was better, love the channel as well
Hows the wrist? Can't wait to see video of you shredding again. Your videos are my biggest motivation 👌👌
8:02 sounds like video game SFX :p
Lol I remember when i fell off my bike, it was the rockiest and worst injury i got lol, it was going almost all down, this is why im scared of mountain biking now in tight areas.
I love your videos. I hope you heal 100%
U should try some of the trails near paducah ky they are alot of fun
Crazy year, we packed a lot in still as well!
Some day, if you come back down to Florida, it would be great if you could come all the way down to Virginia Key. That’s a really cool trail system. The best use possible of a limited space. Those new, high pivot bikes of yours look awesome. Have they continued to perform?

The start caught me up🤭😁
Awesome video, I like how you made the best out of your year even though it was an odd ball year!
Despite all the setbacks, still great content this year Eric 👍 Keep sending it into 2021.
thanks for being a part of my 2020 dude both you and yuka! Loved the videos and they also on my down days gave me a reason to get out and ride
I love this channel. You got me into mountainbiking !
I have started this year and you where the first MTB video I watched :-)
un video muy bonito, con grandes anécdotas y pues lo que viene con mejor actitud para el 2021. Un abrazo.

You should come ride at erwin park in McKinney TX
"as me and Yuka would like to make the most of our summer"
he says as their driving down a highway while its storming outside with rain lol
Since you stopped in Redding on your way back home you must’ve went through Mt Shasta. Next time you ever go through check out some trails. Sisson Callahans a good one
how long is your trail you should keep building more and more.
今年もお世話になりました。
また来年も宜しくお願いいたします。

This is my favorite channel🚲🚲🚲
You guys will be above 2 million subs by 2022
When are you going to build your trail again. I'm really interested to see it and what its called
me to
@bc pov you should continue the trail building
in my opinion you should build 2 or 3 ramps next to each other and it is smallest to biggest so you can choose
What a nice work!
I love the positivity
I wish you and Yuka would increase your fork travel.....It would solve so many problems. love your videos
I totally forgot about your trail.
Huge fan keep up the good work! ❤️😁
to start 2021, I dislocated my finger
lol
Excellent review! Really enjoyed this.
What would you say is better for doing trails / races on trails? Clips or flats?
