    Thank you very much for a climbing video in a downhill-centered world. It is really satisfying to clean (or watch someone clean) a technical climb. Keep the chunky sections coming!

    Jeff, please come back and do another class. This is a monthly ride for me, cleaning bitterbrush is a major goal of mine. It would be great to ride with you on that trail. Maybe even a full video of the class. The video definitely makes it look easier than it is. Bad ass riding!!!

    I'm not sure how I ended up here, but I saw your upload from your interview with channel 12(?) news. Thank you for stating that the helmet is the most important apparatus for a bike rider. I see so many riders (in this sport) and showjumping (my other sport) riding without one. I don't get it-messing up one's hair for a few hours is better than a concussion or worse. Plus wearing a ball cap afterwards makes one look cool (IMO). So, thank you for that broadcast that reached many more viewers than I can reach! Great channel--lots of things to learn from, so I subscribed!.

    Unfortunately we don't have anything like this in the Netherlands. Since a few weeks, I find myself scanning the environment in an effort to find features in my area that are challenging for me to climb. :)

    Great Vid. I'm lean strongly towards the more technical trails. Having taken to a 29er the big loss is the ability to pop a 29er up this type of trail. Will be getting a set of 27.5 wheels this Xmas to get my mojo back on those rock climbing trails again.

      5.7. using a pimped GT sensor 29er which carves corners well and jumps nicely, but I have lost the ability to throw it over technically rocky climbs.

    • @JeffLenoskyTrailBoss
      @JeffLenoskyTrailBoss  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Cleaning Bitterbrush is really really challenging. My best advice is really resting and recovering when you can. If there's a break in the steep terrain or tech stuff take advantage of it!

    Given your experience w urban riding, how about a video on sustained stair climbs? Like how to actually pedal up the stairs. I stall or the rear wheel spins out after I use up the momentum at about 8 stairs. Also how to get some air when going down. Thanks!

    Curious as to your MTB shoe choice and pedal choice as I'm contemplating transitioning from flat pedals to clips. Would like to feel comfortable being able to "get off" the bike quickly when required, but still having the good connection that clips give.
    Plus, I'm 71 and my knees would appreciate some float! :-)

      I think you can't go wrong with a Shimano shoe and a mutli release cleat. I've ridden lots of different brands but the interface between shimano shoes and pedals is the best.

      I am a 70 year old veteran mountain biker and I have been riding Shimano clipless for 25 + years. I have used the multi release SH 56 M cleat since it was introduced and highly recommend it for technical trail riding.

  • @AltitudeAerials
    @AltitudeAerials 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Jeff, for these types of climbs, since you were standing, do you have the fork and shock in open squish or it should be just in the middle "firm" mode? (Not completely locked out)

    • @JeffLenoskyTrailBoss
      @JeffLenoskyTrailBoss  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I typically keep my suspension in "Trail" mode or the middle position. This allows me to have better traction on terrain and better success.

      Daniel Stolworthy if I can carry momentum I try to hop and give pedal pressure fo keep moving. If I come to a complete stop I’ll grab my brakes so I don’t roll backwards.
