    I'd say if anyone had doubts about a Western Spirit tour, this should take care of it!!! Very nicely done.

    Beautiful. I would love to ride those trails. Picturing myself riding the singletrack Nothing but clear blue skies an conditions. I can tell we're ideal. Camping with full service, we call it glamping in Canada.

    Another excellent video. This is the exact type of mountain biking I love to do! The camaraderie with the other riders is a big part of what I also enjoy. I was jealous the whole time watching this video!

      If you don't already, you should both subscribe to tess' channel. One of her main purposes of that channel is to get more women hooked on riding.

    Just subscribed to your page. Love the videos, and it's great watching a fellow hardtailer pushing beyond what most people think our bikes can do. You're proof that the rider is the most important component.

      While you don't need a special journal to be grateful, I've found the Vertellis chapters to help me focus my thoughts. Here's a link: amzn.to/2Q7BbU6

    Trying to gauge interest for future trips. If we were to plan a group trip for our viewers,
    1. Which western spirit trip would you pick? westernspirit.com/bike-trips/mountain/all/
    2. On a scale of 1-10 (10 meaning absolutely) how likely would you attend?
    I think it'd be fun to get a big group together and experience a new part of the US in person with you guys.

      After watching Tess' videos of this trip I had a look on their website. The price is very reasonable for what you get, I'm definitely interested in getting involved.

    • @hardtailparty
      @hardtailparty  Před 4 lety +1

      @@scotti_wan_kenobi It truly is a fantastic deal for what you get. They don't skimp on the quality of food or the quality of their guides.

    They don’t do this particular one anymore. I had to carpool out of Kanab. The north rim is a great ride but it’s remote.

    What's your thoughts on a 2020 Specialized Fuse 29?

    • @hardtailparty
      @hardtailparty  Před 4 lety

      On paper they look 20x better than the old fuze. I think Specialized is close on this one. I haven't had the chance to demo/ride one yet, but it looks decent on paper. Where do you ride, and what type of riding do you do?
