What a blast it was! These trails are so fast! Do not forget, 20% OFF OneUp Components cockpits (code REMY20) and Hayes Brakes (code REMYRIDESHAYES15)
Your link for the Hayes Brakes promo code is to Competitive Cyclist, and Competitive Cyclist says that code is no good. A nice rep at Competitive Cyclist directed me to the Hayes website, where the promo code does work.
Damn, when we built our trail I don't think Remy riding it one day crossed our minds lol
Pro Tip for the ticks (I ride in heavily tick-infested Northeast USA):
• 32oz spray bottle
• 1/3 pure tea tree oil (12-16oz)
• 1 oz peppermint oil
• Fill rest with water
..... I spray before every ride, and if I have that on, NO TICKS, 100% success rate. Safe and healthy, no deet needed. 👍
Do you spray on clothes or skin or everything? I live in Southeast and we have tons of ticks
@@offdaystv I just spray from my knees-down and my shoes
It was nice chatting with you guys in the parking lot! Glad to see you liked the trails!
Thank you! We had a blast!
I haven't ridden this area in 20 years. It's a real treat to see these trails again through your lens, Remi.
what area is this?
@@jakobtinaburri8783 uc santa cruz
Yeah Remy wow some absolutely amazing trails I bet all of us would pull a sickie just to spend the day shredding with Drew He’s an absolute shredder
Thanks!
@@drewpalmerleger You’re very much welcome buddy
Remy something else I do to help with ticks is I take a garlic pill everyday. You may still see them crawling on you but it's very rare you will find one embedded. An old timer told me to try it and he was right
I heard that before
I don't think you can get Lime Disease from ticks in Cali, find them on me once in a while but never had any issues.
The first time riding that trail at 15:42. I was riding it blind and I went too fast off the first root, landed hard compression in the middle and it booted me all the way to the bottom. Stayed on the bike and knocked the wind out of myself when I landed. Rested at the bottom for a while before I kept riding haha.
Gnarly
Careful not to share any locations 😔 wouldn’t want anyone else to enjoy the trails …
SUCH a sick video. Following Drew over the step down and carrying all that speed through the run was so fun to watch!
Thank you!
Thanks for not mentioning the trail names! I know you only had a couple days out here, but there’s a whole other trail network nearby with a lot more jumps and drops. If you’re here for sea otter again next year, you gotta check out the other trails.
We heard. We just ran out of time
One of my favorite riders to watch, awesome to see you in my back yard - rode a few of those trails today - so much fun, glad you like them. Can't wait to check out the trails in your back yard!
More to come!
Hey Remy ! That was a beautiful trail . Both of you guys were really cooking ! Also this video was educational for all riders to see the thought process behind riding features and choosing the right lines ! Great video , tks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful forest, finding new paths
Thank you Rémy for not saying where and the names of the trails. Last thing we want is more people and the area on blast. Much respect from the builders and locals.
Anytime. What a place though, and big respect to the builders. Lots of them messaged me to thank me for riding and enjoying their work which was awesome.
@@remymetailler Thank you.
It makes me so happy that you like the trails. I’d like to ask if you rode some of our newer ones but don’t want to say the name. I’m sure you did. It gets so busy and a lot of people just don’t respect the trails. We don’t get paid to work on them. It’s our time and resources. Been shoveling and building there since 95 when I started riding. Now in my 50’s.
@@bullit4x I'm unsure of the names, I made sure to hide as best as possible the entrance and it's a bit of a labyrinth there anyways:). Thanks for the work! Much appreciated by the community.
>Last thing we want is more people and the area on blast.
That seems very selfish. It's not as if the place will become crowded with gawking tourists or visiting hikers with dogs. How many people ride mountain bikes well enough to ride these trails who can also afford to travel to explore new trails. Why would you want to keep something great from the very small community of real enthusiasts. Are you afraid it will become another Squamish or bentovnille?
@@tyrellcobb4665the trails are likely unsactioned so if too much attention is brought to them they could get destroyed by the city
Wow! Between the insane riding and stunning location, it was hard to know where to look.
SO good! I ride those trails and didn't even realize that some of what I hit as drops, these guys hit as doubles! Also, @remymetailler, I ride there almost every week and have never gotten a tick. They're usually found in meadows/tall weeds.
well it got on me somehow...
@@remymetailler Unlucky! You're literally the first person I've ever heard of getting a tick in the redwoods.
Salut Rémy, ça accélère moins vite vélo éteint 🤣
Amazing…perfect and dreamy trails!! 🤩 The dirt and scenery (except the sequoias, of course😉) at some places reminds me of the trails here at Sintra!!
Glad to see you guys enjoying more and more the ebike way of life!!
PS: those ticks know better where to live…🙂
Heck Yeah, UCSC, recognized a bunch of those trails :)
I feel you on your fear of ticks! Was lucky enough to not be bitten, but found a couple on myself after rides! Makes me itch just to think about it!
Thanks for hiding the trail heads. Our redwood trails are epic. Your perspective and professional insight is noteworthy. Keep inspiring the shred!
I appreciate that!
Why ? What kind of backwards logic is hiding the trails from other users ? Do you not wish to inspire future trail builders …? To allow youth to grow and experience new trails ?
Dear Remy, about ticks - they r mostly afraid of thyme and eucalyptus oil or spray (spray is much less effective). the best way to protect yourself. Cheers.
Awesome riding there Remy. I wish i can go that fast on those trails. I notice that your run #6, the 2nd part you went down the return trail. At the burn out tree stump, you should go straight instead of going left. :)
Next time
@@remymetailler i'm looking forward to it. i love seeing how you handle the trails so this way i can get pointers next time i'm riding it. thanks for sharing your content.
Great riding, it feels like you are on "normal" bikes ("he was faster partly because my bike was off" 🤣). I finally received my Ekano 2 Al after 2 months of waiting. Now, the bike is waiting for me to arrive back to my flat to assemble it - and to finally try it out . Cant wait 😁
Hey Remy! Awesome video! Beautiful trail. It’s nice to see you ride the electric bike since I really want to buy one at some point and that one rides nicely. I am glad you got the tick out and that you weren’t injured. Keep riding and inspiring! 🤟🏼
now everytime im climbing up MC return Ima be afraid of a wild Remy rushing down at me 😂
That guy was on fire 🔥
It can be hard to relate to some of the riding you do, but picking the wrong line and having to stop is all too familiar. 😄
Man synchronicities… I’m scared of ticks now and i had one cause me to have a massive rash after I removed it. The rash was the size of a disc rotor
Awesome shredding guys! 🔥🤘
Some of the most fun I have had down there!
Drew is a badass! Really enjoyed the video!
Woww those trails are so nice!
@remy Dope riding as usual. I'm glad you rode the Bay Area's best MTB trails. We ride there every weekend. Your speed down those steeps was sick!
Right on!
This Cali ride got my sub
Scenes blown
Amazing riding on the local trails nice to see you there 👋🤙
You rode some local trails that I ride. Hope you have a great time!
I did!
@remy awesome to see you down in the states, when are we getting to see you shred some Washington trails?!
This place looks like heaven!!!
Brother nooooooo! At 24:18 the descent is on the right. You sent the climb, that’s why there was a lot of “cornering”.
Yep now we now
The video is awesome as it is, there's no need for added music. I love hearing the sound of the wheels, brakes etc.
I live in the PNW & traveled back to Cali, my home state, for a visit back in March. As I was making my way to Santa Cruz for a few days of riding, it decided to rain & it rained for about three days, so I didn't get to ride any of them trails😩
I used to ride there in the early 90s before moving to Oregon, so I was really excited to see what's been going on there since then.
Oh well, I'm not dead yet, so there's always next year🤞🏾
Can you not ride in rain? Ive only been riding for three weeks after a 17 yr hiatus
@DandyHippo I live in the PNW, so of course I can ride in the rain, but I don't want to ride in three days of downpour when the trails are sloppy & the roots are extra slippery.
@@harveycasey1900 gotcha fam, risky and not so fun for sure
@@harveycasey1900 Trails here don't handle the rain nearly as well as the PNW, different soil composition. The steeps in the video do ok, but since all these trails are illegal, there isn't as much armoring on sections that do turn into bogs in the rain. Very healthy amount of rain this season - at least it lessens the chance of everything completely burning down in late summer/fall.
@ShapeThings the soil in that area does look really loose & I can imagine when it gets saturated from extra amounts of rain, it'll get really boggy. Plus, I didn't want to ride them trails blind & in very wet conditions. No telling where them snipper roots can be hiding. I could come around a blind corner or off a drop & then the next thing POW! I'm taking a dirt nap. I'm very comfortable riding the trails around here in the wet because I know where the snipers are hiding. Actually, it's been raining here for the past few days with more on the way😩
I got a tick bite as well… not a great feeling. Just the thought of Lyme disease is not comforting. You make our trails look siiick!
I hope to see more Cali stuff from you in the future?? 👀 🤟
Amazing , fantastic single track Trails, insane Speed , can't believe how fast you both rode the sections.🎉🎉🎉 Hm, uphill Track? Very dangerous, prob with E-Bikes 🤷
I've always been told thats a climbing trail, but its hard with unsanctioned stuff cause nothing is signed and it criss crosses one of the more popular descents so its easy to get turned down it.
I'm here because of Average Dude Riding Hard Trails.
I'm not disappointed good video
Ticks aren't your enemy in SC......Poison oak is! and rubbing yourself after a run is a BIG NO NO! 😁
Love that your riding an emtb!!
But why were you PUSHING it up hill?
Walk mode work really well , or just pedal.
Cheers!
Living in Santa Cruz but i LOVE BC, I’m stoked to have you in town and that you speak that highly of our network. It’s all pretty “secret” so that for not posting any locations or names Remy.
Thank you
Question: the locals areas I ride actively try and promote their trails and would openly share location and names. This is needed in order to grow ridership and get more grant money.
Why would riders / builder not want others to know location of trails?
In many cases I agree with you.
when the trails aren't legally sanctioned
@remymetailler please get a high framerate go pro. we need these in minimum 60fps at all resolutions. Thanks!
No one really films in 60fps. The blur is because we go fast!
@@remymetailler interesting- what is the constraint?
Love your content by the way. You make me wish I had found mountain biking as a teenager.
@@jcart011 30 fps looks more natural. also in the forest with out good light there is going to be diminished quality especially with stabilization. it's not really avoidable with current tech.
Nice bicycle MTB
Awesome as always. . What settings do you use in this video ? shots look perfect.
So ,sick looks so fun !!
Wow incredible ride. With the extra weight of the ebike how to do you keep from bottoming out? Are the shocks that much bigger?
nice pedal
Indeed it is!
Hii remmy, big fan from Bangladesh. 🇧🇩❤️
Thank you!
Sooooo good! 🤘🏼
Sick🤘🏾🤘🏾
That's some old forrest. That dirt is the same color as the trees. I can't imagine how many thousands of years trees have been falling and decaying there.
most of it was logged in the late 19th, early 20th century. A few trees in the vicinity are ~1500 years old.
Super video.
Rémy, how many bones have you broken? And what were the most common ones?
Rear wheel left the chat😂
where is this? Looks kind of like the hills near santa cruz
Santa Cruz?
Big REMdog making it look too easy, you shoulda hit my line bro I woulda showed you all the other good stuff with out getting lost
Menudo espectáculo 😍
Nice riding!
I know that it's not important, but what is the speed you have on this trail.
I’m gonna have so much credit card dept
What knee pads do you run Remy?
I had to go to the emergency room…for a tick on my leg 😂
To get the antibiotics
what bike are you useing
Sorry i didn't understand. What did you put in your gear against the ticks?
you can use Deet
Sick video!! Amazing to see @remymetailler on my local trails! I have full videos of all of these trails on my channel - compared to what you see here it's in slow mo 😂
I dont understand the title? What emergencies? did you call an ambulance for the ticks off camera? 🤣 Loved the vid btw.
He mentioned he took a tick off the day before and went to emerg after for antibiotics.
Ah I missed that part. Honesty I hate ticks so much but I’m really lucky I have never had one. The idea just scares me
Jealous
Remember that charging your battery should not be done in your house / garage. Too many videos are on the internet showing deadly run-a-way flash fires. I am not convinced that E-Bikes or Scooters / One Wheels are safe to be used in the forrest due to battery flash fires.
SANTA CRUZ UCSC.. to the lames who tryna hide... nobody care about nun of the bs.. we care about having fun.. So go send it at UCSC on high way 9... If you aint skilled don't go.. get better first please nobody tryna help you when we blasting down the trails ....alr you welcome.. happy riding
Why would you not at least mention the general location: Marin county?
It’s UCSC all the trail on the back side to highway 9.
These trails are off the map so by respect for the local builders I do not mention where it is even though it's known world wide.
@@remymetailler the gatekeeper has long left the building.😂🤣
Because the trail keepers are garbage. Great builders, garbage people. “We don’t want outsiders on our trails” - fuck inspiring future generations and allowing people to enjoy the mountains.
Maybe the builders own the mountain and planted all the trees.
@@michaelmann3636If you know then you know, So why do you need to comment the location?
I really love your videos and general approach to things, but as a trailbuilder I'm sad to watch you do so much braiding/straightlining. Please stay on trail.
I’m sure it was explained to you that these trials are not legally opened or sanctioned. Maybe you can help create some interest in making them so ? The reason these trails are hard to work on is because they are illegal and very few people are able to maintain them legally. You as an advocate of the mountain bike community have an obligation to so no when it comes to riding them despite the thousands of people that came before you. I don’t think the trails are going away anytime soon, but you never know.🤷🏼♂️ Great shredding as always usual.
I agree with you. At the same time the demo forrest is closed to E Bike. There was not much left to ride around that is sanctioned. Perhaps that's a wake up call for California to make more legal trails. I received nothing but positive feedback from people down there. I'm hoping these trails will be grandfathered soon.
@@remymetailler it’s going to be a long road for those trails, I think the land is owned by the University and there is no way they want the liability associated with them.
They'll never be legal, because it's state park property and almost all of the trails dump out onto a highway. We're lucky that the state park tolerates it. They hand out tickets a few times a year, but that's it for enforcement.
@@michaelmann3636 Could a local biking org purchase insurance for the area?
UC will never be legal. The geography of the zone makes it too difficult to get emergency vehicles out there, and it does not pass a load of other requirements for legal trails :(
Amazing trails
