@davidalmendariz7474 I use a pair of pliers to tighten the adjustment screw as much as possible so it's less likely to move, and also scratched a little mark on the mount so I can quickly make sure it is at the proper angle every time.

@@DonaldRidesBikes o that’s smart thank you

@Marc_Plays_Outdoors Not a planned one, but kind of - just been spending more time on other hobbies recently. I'm taking a trip back to Wisconsin soon though, and planning to do a video or two on the old trails where I first started riding, so expect something new within a few weeks!

@@DonaldRidesBikesgood for you! This morning was a kayaking trip vs. biking. Ever ride Phil's World in CO? That is on the fall vacation plans.

@Marc_Plays_Outdoors I have not. Was considering a trip to that area earlier this year, but went to Santa Fe, NM instead. I've heard good things though!

Glad to hear you're enjoying the videos! First trail that comes to mind when you say blue-black would be Heart - it's rated blue, but one of the hardest blues in the area. Sunset is another great one - the upper section is black, lower section is blue. Or if you prefer flow and jumps, Full Sail is an awesome new blue trail that runs parallel to lower Sunset. Brookbank is one of my favorites - the middle section is green, but upper and lower are both solid blues. I'd also give an honorable mention to Lunar Tide, which branches off from middle Brookbank. These trails are all in the same area on Mt Elden, so you could even link a couple together for a longer ride. Hope this helps! Have fun!

@@DonaldRidesBikes Thank you for the speed reply and the trail recommendations. I've looked them all up and I look forward to checking them out and riding a new area 🤩 I think I read that you are using a go-pro to record your rides. What sort of system are you using to attach it? Is attached to a harness on your chest or your helmet? Are you using a gimble as well? I'm trying to find a good solution for recording my own rides. Thanks again, Janice

@NomadJan Yep, I am currently using a GoPro Hero 11 Black. When I wear my full face helmet, it is zip-tied to the chin bar. Otherwise, when wearing my half shell helmet, I use the GoPro Chesty mount, no gimbal or anything else. I prefer the camera angle from the full face chin mount, and it seems to be a bit more stable, so I use that most often.

@@DonaldRidesBikes Great! That helps a lot. Thank you 😊

Bicycle Doctor in Dousman for both - I rode it as an out and back, into Jefferson and turned around there.

Thanks! I'm currently using a GoPro Hero 11 Black.

@@DonaldRidesBikes awesome. Thanks!

Thanks! This route took me a little over 2 hours including breaks. If you're just looking to do Meteoride though, and don't care about the other trails, starting from Elden Lookout Rd and climbing Brookbank would be a shorter route.

Thanks! It's a GoPro Hero 11 Black, chin mounted on a full face helmet.

@@Boots2Bike I try not to worry about what what other people will like. Just do what is fun and exciting for you, and if other people like it, great, but if they don't, at least you still enjoyed it.

They are well done. Great image quality too.

Thanks! It's a GoPro Hero 11 Black, chin mounted on a full face helmet, 5.3K, 30 FPS, Hyperview, -1.0 EV Comp, 1600 Max ISO, 5500K White Balance, and low Sharpness.

@@DonaldRidesBikes A big thanks!

Thanks! I've been running 2.6" Minion DHRs both front and rear for about a year now. I tried Dissectors on my Roscoe this summer and like those better though, so I may do the same with the Neuron soon.

@@DonaldRidesBikes I appreciate the info! 🙏

I parked at the lower Schultz Creek trailhead, and from there the full ride was 15.6 miles with 1,760 feet of elevation. You could also park on Elden Lookout Rd just before the gate, and you'd get to Full Sail quicker, but then at the end of the ride you'd have to pedal back up 2-3 miles on the road, so it would be about the same distance and elevation overall.

@@DonaldRidesBikes thanks ! So how much do you have to pedal to get to full sail if you park at the lower Schultz trailhead ? 3 miles ?

@rickmorty3689 It's about 7-8 miles from there

It was chin-mounted on a full face helmet

Bikes are only allowed on the lower section before the trail enters the Kachina Peaks Wilderness Area.

Thanks! It's actually not a 360 camera, just a GoPro Hero 11. I'm running 5.3K, 30 FPS, Hyperview, -1.0 EV Comp, 1600 Max ISO, 5500K White Balance, and low Sharpness.

@drewsky1967 Was actually planning to this weekend, but it's too hot for me. Definitely soon though!

@@DonaldRidesBikes for sure. I was there from like 6:30 to 9am and was nice. Beat the heat. I might go again Sunday early morning.

That's awesome! Happy to hear you enjoyed riding in Flag.

It was a ton of fun! Your video from Bean Peaks looked pretty similar, I'll have to get down there to check that out soon.

Haha I don't know how I didn't notice that during my ride, but just checked the bike after you said it, and you were 100% correct. Thanks!

According to Trailforks, no, e-bikes are not allowed.
