Some will say this is the best bicycle ride in Oklahoma or Arkansas. We tend to agree that this mountain range that runs East-West was really fun.

Is a professional bicycle fit worth it?

I always read on social media about people recommending a professional bicycle fitting. What is it like? How does it work? Should I do it? I tried to answer those questions.

This ride is called Ride the Hurricane. It is a pay ride that allows the bicyclist to ride to the summit of Hurricane Ridge. The organizers close the road to vehicles. This allows cyclists to enjoy the park without automobiles.

Thankyou for the videos. I enjoyed the ride-along.
Thanks for this video. I'm a long time roadie who now loves gravel also. I live about an hour away from Farmersville and was looking for a long route away from traffic. Thought the NETT was going to be perfect. But like dad always said, "measure twice, cut once." So glad I looked this up. I'm retiring soon in 2025, maybe I could get involed in helping this trail and Texas to become a better cycling state. Anyway thanks for your time and effort in making this video. (old guys do rule.1957)
My great grandpa's company started the construction on the road. He got the contract from the Conservation Corp. Most of my family on my dad's side is from the area. I was just up there for the Choctaw Nation Labor Day Festival. I want to bike this myself one day. My tribal nation every year does a bicycle ride from the mississipi Choctaw Reservation to the current capital of our tribal nation in oklahoma in honor of the trail of tears that brought our people to Oklahoma. Oklahoma itself is a name in Choctaw. many of the places in that corner of oklahoma are in choctaw.
Why would you ride east to west in eastern WA? Big mistake.
You are right we did it backwards.
You're too fit, old man!
C’mon Texas! Let’s get this trail fixed up right!🙂
Wow the views! Your are getting a sub my fellow traveler!
Ok, first comment lol, how did the copyright go for the music? Also, wheres the other parts! I'm going to be in TX at the end of the month and will be trying to ride end to end
TH-cam seems to allow most music to bypass because I do not monetize my channel. Its been really wet in Texas and I have chosen to wait for dryer weather before I give the rest of the trail a try. Good luck on your journey.
@@BicyclingtheUSA I’m not monetized and I’ve been hit with copyright stuff. I was hoping you had a secret lol
I Michael and I really enjoyed watching! Hi to all!
Hello. Great video. It's very informative. I've done most of the climbs in the Santa Monica mountains, but Mt. Baldy is new to me. I'm hoping to ride it in September. I'd greatly appreciate any insider info on this loop. I guess my main concern would be, are there any bad traffic sections? Maybe from the bottom of Mt. Baldy back over to Glendora? I'm from Pennsylvania and don't know the area. Thanks again for this great video!
I filmed this ride in 2018. At that time most of the ride was in low traffic areas. I would recommend this route as long as you are experienced. There are limited options for support.
This was helpful, thanks! Going XWA to Coeur D’Alenes, then continuing by some yet to be determined route from Mullan (Coeur D’Alenes terminus) up to Whitefish MT to connect to the GDMBR… If anyone’s done that, I’d love input on route finding ID to MT..!
Glad it was helpful! If you find a good route we would love to hear about it.

The wind sure did beat y’all up for sure! You rode this in the month of April, right? Looking back, would you have waited until May to avoid the cold and wet? Been watching all of your videos (up to this one and will continue). Also, looking back, would you consider east to west, or would you stay west to east? Thinking about doing the whole trail on a hard tail fat tire. What are your thoughts on a fat tire vs the trail?Thanks much! Off to watch Day 6…
We did most of it in March/April. April was good and May would probably be even better. We did it East to West and filmed one episode per week over a period of 8 weeks. Generally the wind blows West to East so that may have been better. A gravel bike would work on segments West of the Columbia River. East of the Columbia River I would recommend a hard tail.
Ha ha I know Michael. I used to work with him at Ladera sports center. Small world lol
Way to go! Old guys rule!😂😂👍
Did the same there with Craig Fulk. I too found it a good investment!
.a cool video keep up the great content.. Thank you…
Thanks, will do!
@@BicyclingtheUSA Thank you very mutch... have a nice Weekend.... see you….
thank you for putting this together. i was able to follow your route on the map. had always wonder why the two trails were not connected. great to see how to do it.
I am glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful.
My two sons riding from NYC to Bear Mountain. I had to work that day. th-cam.com/video/-gWUcAk4BcY/w-d-xo.html
If you ever come to the East Coast you should ride over the George Washington bridge to 9W up to Nyack to Piermont. Beautiful ride.
Thanks for the advice. We are starting to plan an East Coast swing. W will put this route on our list!
Looks like a great time!
It was!
Massage Therapy helps to remove trigger points aka knots in your muscles. With PNF youre increasing ROM and flexibility however, if you have any "knot" in a muscle and your stretched wrong then you risk muscle injury as well as joint injury. I do PNF & Massage with client's & the combination is the maximum benefit to your body. PNF alone is very beneficial as you can see, but in my professional experience working with NFL & MLB athletes, that's my opinion. Glad PNF helped you. Sometimes you just dont have the right Therapist. A good therapist will add PNF to a session or recommend it esp if your having ROM issues and posture issues.
Wow! Beautiful views...too bad about the narrow shoulders and traffic.
I know, right?
Central Washington is so beautiful. I took four kids age 7 to 15 to Grand Coulee Dam a few years ago. I knew I would enjoy the trip ... I was surprised they all that it was cool too. I am looking forward to watching the other videos of your trip.
I attempted this in 2021 and got injured approaching Butte. Unfortunately I had to abandon.
I grew up in Everett. You make us look good. Thanks.
interesting
11 June 2023 . Bicycle ride this section frequently, both directions. Beverly Bridge open a couple years. Potable water @ Doris, about 4 miles up from the Columbia. Scroungable water a mile east of Ryegrass Summit. Bring shallow lips. Timeout bar in Kittitas a much better option. GREAT RIDE
Did you ride any of the eastern section (beyond Beverly)? If so, are conditions still as shown in Episodes 1-5?
@markfreiberg9906 A year ago I rode all ,but haven't watched all videos. Notably, east to Warden is diy on public roads/ canals. Ralston- Marengo can be sketchy and was warned by a local landowner that following grade across Cherry? Creek could be confrontational. The "clip" by Rock Lake ,I believe, was misleading. 2 mile stretch is clearly, physically barricaded. No signs, but definitely passable. 5th. Trail dies @ Idaho border.
Ellensburg to Seattle and back this early summer. Thanks for the vids.
Your welcome. Sounds like a fun trip

Kinda hard to enjoy the ride with your mile markers.... Annoying
keep it up man, your bless by youtube because I have no Idea what channel this is
Super nice video. Thank you for your time and efforts.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sweet. I circumnavigated Rainier last season in a 165-mile day, sort of replicating the RAMROD route, and using my house as the start / finish. I made the mistake of riding the route clockwise, so climbing 410 was slow and annoying, especially the zero-shoulder bits. Out of Packwood, It was my first time riding Skate Creek Road...BEAUTIFUL! Might repeat this year...it's a really nice route! Thanks for the video.
Very nice video my wife and I love this area and we will be there to ride in September.
Awesome video. Very informative and thank you for the advice in what to bring. Congratulations on finishing the STP in one day.
Thanks so much!
I have a route at Laguna atascosa in bayview We also have the battlefield trail in Brownsville with connection to other trails Hmu if interested in some rides in RGV
Thanks for sharing
My pleasure
Excellent video, however... In what way did the musical noise add to the video?
Did you see any rattle snakes on your trip? How many miles is it from Idaho to Seattle? Does that trail keep going in Idaho or does it just stop? Thank you!
We did this ride in the Spring and did not see any snakes. Its about 300 miles from the Idaho border to Seattle. The trail keeps going into Idaho. See my video Bicycle Idaho Tour of the Coeur D' Alenes and Connect from Palouse to Cascades to Tour of the Coeur D'Alenes for more info.
@@BicyclingtheUSA So if it keeps going into Idaho how far does it go into Idaho and where does it go after that? Im just curious how it goes total, Chicago? Thanks!
Although it is 130 miles long, the only sections that have been upgraded for use are the first 23 miles at the northern end and 15 miles at the southern end. Unless a trail association is formed to take up the cause, it will be a long while before the state finds the money to do any more. The northern section is in better condition with a section of it being paved.
The weather is beautiful to ride a bike. Almost 20-mile ride, nice. 👍
The trail looked pretty rough in your video but at least it seemed to be packed down. I was just out there yesterday (10/1/2022) and the portion through YTC was almost impassable due to thick sand. I started out in Ellensburg and had wanted to go all the way to the river but turned around at the east end of the tunnel bypass. Once off YTC the trail was packed down more.
You mentioned having a chain come off and I instantly went back to the early 60s on my big sister's bike and it happening all the time, then I realized that I have ridden over 38K miles in the last 7 years and haven't dropped a chain for any reason... not once. Find the perfect bike and have a Rohloff Speedhub installed, you will never go back. If you are willing to deal with a rigid frame get a belt drive installed and never think about a chain again. I wanted a full suspension and because of the frame geometry I have to deal with a chain and tensioner but the chain line always stays straight. Stay safe.
You're riding an unloaded nude 29"er and saying the road is *rough*... I'm not sure rails-to-trails has got it right yet. Long straight stretches of trail in the middle of BFE are great... if you can ride them.
The Varia senses an object overtaking you. Its looking for an object with a speed differential. In a group ride the speeds match or are very close so alerts don't often occur. Similarly, if a car slows to shadow you and matches your speed, the radar will clear. Last tip: Ride with GPS mobile app can pair with the Varia 515. This would let you use a single phone app to both navigate and get the Varia alert functionality.
Thanks for the info!
Taking my electric longboard up the canyon for a ride today. Been here since 97 and love living the Salt Lake. The people here are top notch and this hippie has not been treated better in any other state
I like your vids. Would you explain how to use Relive?
I use a Garmin watch. On my Garmin account I share my data with my Relive account. Once I have completed my workout I can create a Relive video on the Relive app. My Relive account sends me an email with the link to my video. I open the link and play the Relive video on my desktop. I make a screen recording of the video. I then copy and paste the video into my video editing software. Once its in my video editing software I can add audio, cut the video into segments or add overlays.
@@BicyclingtheUSA very nice, thorough explanation. I appreciate your efforts. Thx. Have a good weekend.
Lab, not labs
😭😭?
I have rode 170 miles and stopped 12.5 hours total. I will definitely finish it next year Fun ride!
Nice work!
