Honestly this was the PEFECT sam pilgrim video. Ouch my back.. old. Castle tour history facts, ridiculous bike, non stop pissing myself laughing. Being kind to the kid on the track by including him. Just perfect. I don't think I've enjoyed one of your videos more in the last 6 years.
Flevobike has made some great recumbents through the years. OkeJa, Amigo and finally the pinnacle of recumbent engineering: The Flevobike Greenmachine. I should know, I own one of the 600 ever made fitted with nylon/glass composite wheels. A wonderful machine.
Right? Came to say the same. Now he knows how we feel. I was so out of breath on my last session trying to wheelie, takes serious core. Can’t wait for the next session
I rode one similar to this in North Carolina back in the mid-late 80's. I lost one of my checker-board Vans and my left-nut on a root-section, after some major spillage off a 12ft cliff-face. When we got back to my truck, my lost Van was sitting on the tailgate waiting for me. 😳 My left-nut, recovered.
Any major differences in maintenance between recumbents & uprights? I do my own and always think about how long distance commuting would be like laying in a more comfy position.
@@TeamLas3r maybe you can rent a few different models to find out. Recumbents are pretty different in handling and comfort, and everyone has their own liking. What they have in common, is you don't bear down on your wrist so much which is really comfortable. Maintenancewise, they are pretty much bicycles with a very long chain that likes to collect dirt. The protective tubes around the chain (you see them in the video) are good for your pants and good for your chain. For me, I found out, a motorcycle top box is perfect. It gives me storage, improves on my aerodynamics a little, and the extra weight doesn't really matter to me because recumbents are heavy anyways. In fact, a little weight increases the ratio of sprung to unsprung masses, which is good for suspension comfort. And yes, try a full suspension recumbent. I don't want to miss mine.
CAN'T GET OVER HOW MAHOOSIVE THAT CHAIN IS!! 😅 Imagine combining this with that big fan-propeller thing you got (also from marketplace)! Or team up with Canyon to create a full-sus recumbent.. Also, love how it goes from "Ah, my back" to the "best thing ever" in the blink of an eye! 😂 And forcing the merch down our throats! 😂 Not to mention the history lesson and crack-a-Monnie, 10 minutes of epic entertainment!! 👍🏻
This brings me and my partner so much Joy!!!! The history lesson is amazing and the way you put these videos together is just amazing. The editing and your natural chemistry is always out of this world. Dont ever change Sam 😀
@@cebruthius I've seen some really nice ones. Sam's marketplace gem is not one of those :) I'd rate it a notch down from the bed frame bike. They are not all made out of garage door opener parts.
As a ‘bent rider (a dark sider), I’ve been waiting for this and it was highly entertaining. The bike is a bit mild as a ‘bent though, very definitely at the ‘shopper’ end of the recumbent spectrum. But that doesn’t stop me not wanting to wait to long for the next instalment.
The first time I watch this video I had no idea how gnarly it was, now when I watch this it just looks crazy! Thanks for risking life and limb to ride this thing!
That was hilarious Sam. The stuff you come up with to cycle is one thing, but the pure insanity you perform on them is on a whole new level. Excited to see what happens next 😂😂
I cried with laughter as usual Pilgs, love the bit where you say your back hurts while you are trying to wheelie and then you slam yourself and say 'old' then the camera captures your back all blown through the remnants of the seat, hahahahhahaha.
Why wouldn't you want to watch these videos right ? But if you couldn't, just listening to Sam's commentary, exclamations and laughter really is enough. I laughed so hard this one, especially when he bounced down the stairs and slid to a stop. 🤣I just remembered he almost went under that one fence as well.
Im always worrying about my bikes and if they safe or not for sending... you make me realise more and more that they are way more safe than i think after watching you sending things like this all the time 😂 inspirational bike wizard of a man you are 😅🤟
Sam it’s a joy to see how you manage to ride all these contraptions! You make everything look easy and it’s always fun to watch the videos! Keep up the good work and I can’t wait to wear the new shirt 😁
Sam this was so crazy funny, laughed the whole video! It was hysterical till the tree/knee wreck, ouch! Oh my back, oh my back.... & the seat was split was crazy, next shot... duck tape....... whaaaaaaahaaaa! Your laugh is infectious! 😂 Loved this one And great historical tour too!
the juxtaposition of history with smashing berms, doing wheelies and flying blind down trails on a recumbent bike could only be pulled off by one man, and that man is you Sam. We need more of this type of content!
I haven't stopped laughing throughout this video. The bonkers ride and the castle tour was hilarious! Get this man on a the BBC with a castle tour by bike! 😂😂😂
Fun, excitement , stair sets of doom and a history lesson as well, you could be the new simon schama but doing history from a bike, who knows where it could all lead, great stuff as ever.
As soon as I see that missing tooth smile I can't help but grin :) If you ever find yourself in Toronto, make sure to come and ride the Don Valley trails, we got some real sweet gems hidden in our city!
Oh yeah, spruce it up and go bonkers :D That was a treat, recumbent and a history lesson plus hilarious and terrifying moments. I'm so positively surprised =)
The amount of sheer effort and energy sending this bike down some trails is crazy and Sam always makes it look effortless. I'm knackered just watching it. Always love the content can't wait for 2nd part of this one
That recumbent bicycles was made by a master builder. We have a broken chair ... fits here, we have a beam probably from his house, we don´t need in the house, fits there. The wheels of his children bicycle, he doesn´t need wheels ... Amazing video again 😃🤙
I was never really into watching much youtube until I stumbled on Sam's channel. So damn fun to watch! I feel like you can't make a better combo then Sam and all these crazy bikes. Keep it up man.
That's gotta be "The Most Painful Success of 2023!" That Stairset of Doom! Sick as always Bruh. One of my personal inspirations, much to my wife's chagrin. 🤘🏽🎉
I've honestly been waiting for this episode :D Thanks for making it happen, Sam! Looking forward to the front flip in the next episode ;) (Also might be dangerous/fun to attach that big fan on the recumbent!)
Yes, to another video of the recumbent in modified form for more fun and excitement! Take it to Twisted Oaks for the ultimate in sick gnarly shredding!

Only if the bike snaps.
For shure so far
The best
Agreed
Thanks man! Glad you like the vids 😁👌

@@mojostevo Honestly, if he did something educational in youtube shorts everyone would watch.
Sam doing a wheelie on that thing looks like me trying to wheelie a regular bike 😂
😂👍
Same here... apart from the last one.
At least you try. I don't even dare to try it.

I'm a recumbent commuter, and you made my dreams and nightmares come true at the same time. Full respect to you, that was hilarious ❤
now you know whats possible, time to overcome your fears and conquer your nightmares

Trips of 100 km a day at average speed of 25 kph are easy, I don't even get tired.
New Netflix show. Recumbent history with Sam. You just pedalling round old places doing doomers?
Forget Netflix! TH-cam is where Pilgrim is king!

First lap had me laughing the whole time 😂😂 only Sam sends it blind on a recumbent bike
And he still rides it better than I do on a proper mountain bike on a known trail.
Friggin hilarious. Random clattering chaos barreling down the trail.
This brings me and my partner so much Joy!!!! The history lesson is amazing and the way you put these videos together is just amazing. The editing and your natural chemistry is always out of this world. Dont ever change Sam 😀
keepin that madness together was a miracle of the universe!
Please please make a history series, just biking around telling history facts.
on the recumbent. There's something hilariously stupid about it but so entertaining.
Pops a sick recumbant wheely with every fun fact
id actually watch that intently!
@@CRneu it went so well w/ the script, simply a brilliant happening
Sam's take on Cunk on Britain
I have a feeling that Sam could get down those trails faster in a supermarket trolley than I can on my mountain bike.
Yep for sure
I see this as a challenge and a video request.
Sam is the Nikola Tesla of two-wheeled madness. Just when you think there are no more insane bike shredding options left, Sam invents a new one.
Dude is a genuine inspiration. The way he makes terrible ideas into genuinely great ideas is the type of thing I aspire to.
😂😂🤙
Tesla was a Jesuit puppet Kabbalist who only rereleased old tartarian technology. Total fraud.
“Off track, slightly…” 😂
👊😎🔥
Im going to just do a prediction, this bike is going to an absolute dream.
I think it's going to be actually the best thing ever.
3:13 i was close lmao
soooooo good
Yes!!!! Recumbents are the best, way too much fun! Stoked on this edit Sam, wheelie chillin!!!
Recline Baby!
The master has spoken!
funniest episode for ages, never seen sam looked so scared before he bailed
you fill my heart with smiles, thank you for being yourself on camera and sharing the risks you take in the name of 'sending it '
How did they not think of putting a second chain tensioner on that chain
Finally some history with Sam again love it
Probably a garage door chain. Kinda think the top "tube" came from a garage door opener as well.
There was gears on the back and standard bike cranks on the front. All the garage door chain I have seen is a smaller pitch
@@sapinva How to reveal you know nothing about recumbents 😆
@@cebruthius I've seen some really nice ones. Sam's marketplace gem is not one of those :) I'd rate it a notch down from the bed frame bike. They are not all made out of garage door opener parts.
@@sapinva I own three bikes from this manufacturer, including this model and I call you a liar, sir 🤡
Always coming up with the most creative bikes. Love it.
I love Sam's out-of-context history lessons. Honestly, if every class was delivered by a guy on a bike pulling wheelies every kid would be a genius 😏
More history lessons!!🎉
TOP 5 video of all time!!! My stomach hurts and face full of tears 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣 Your grunts and reactions were totally killing me! 😅

Now he has been afflicted with the curse of recumbency, soon he'll be lusting after windshields, aerodynamic fairings and under seat steering
The first time I watch this video I had no idea how gnarly it was, now when I watch this it just looks crazy! Thanks for risking life and limb to ride this thing!
MORE RECUMBENT PLEASE!! :D That's so sick and I want to see you doing a hill bomb with it! Haha
You have the ability to make any vehicle on 2 wheels the most fun ever! Watching your videos always cheer me up Sam. Love them. Thanks.
That was hilarious Sam. The stuff you come up with to cycle is one thing, but the pure insanity you perform on them is on a whole new level. Excited to see what happens next 😂😂
Glad you like them!!
I honestly love your content your the most entertaining TH-camer ever
I havent laughed this hard in ages. Sam riding down those stairs is just too much!
I cried with laughter as usual Pilgs, love the bit where you say your back hurts while you are trying to wheelie and then you slam yourself and say 'old' then the camera captures your back all blown through the remnants of the seat, hahahahhahaha.

Love that epic bike Sound. Kinda empty Soda can, with tiny Rock strumming in there. Solid 🦽
Always love the energy Sam! Got some Orchrad T-shirts ordered! Cheers from Sweden!

Got to be the funniest thing I've 👀 in a long time! The first run is Pure brilliance.
Also. The way you interact with the local kids is great. Way to be a positive influence on the youth.
I genuinely smile when I watch Sam. I feel like I am riding with him and enjoying time with a friend. Love the videos!
Loving the history lesson. Shreddy in the snow is what I’m thinking. Plan for next year.
Fun, excitement , stair sets of doom and a history lesson as well, you could be the new simon schama but doing history from a bike, who knows where it could all lead, great stuff as ever.
Sam, you genuinely make me laugh every video. Dreams.
Thank you Sam for your videos. Me and my daughter are watching all your stuff. This one is one of your best!
The sleeping policemen lol. You rock man 😂
Always love your history lessons !!!! Give us more!!!
The wheelie, the wheelie attempts! 😂😂😂 Bloody funny. Nice one sam.
The "recumbent smile" hits LITERALLY EVERYONE! Please help make these bikes cool
Love your work Sam. Your my best friend. Bless you brother
This just made my day. 😂
I laughed til I was almost in tears.
Amazing!!!
Haha awesome, love the positivity and the lets give anything a go attitude!
As soon as I see that missing tooth smile I can't help but grin :) If you ever find yourself in Toronto, make sure to come and ride the Don Valley trails, we got some real sweet gems hidden in our city!
Oh yeah, spruce it up and go bonkers :D

Comedy, culture and cunning stunts in one package. What an epic combination.
Please continue to include historic monuments tours in your videos.
More history coming up!!! 😁

Amazing video again 😃🤙
Truly a mastermind of our time. We should all be grateful to be alive in the same time period!
Sam you're a hero! =) I soooooo enjoy your videos! Thnx! Yeah, and I would love to see this bike on your big kicker landing on the airbag ;)
You had me laughing so hard I was choking on my food, well done mate!!!
I was never really into watching much youtube until I stumbled on Sam's channel. So damn fun to watch! I feel like you can't make a better combo then Sam and all these crazy bikes. Keep it up man.
So good to see Farleigh Castle make an appereance!
Had some proper laugh out loud moments watching that absolute beaut. Enhance, strengthen & send that absolute weapon some more!!
I was laughing until I cried watching this. And serious respect for riding that thing that so quickly.
That's gotta be "The Most Painful Success of 2023!" That Stairset of Doom! Sick as always Bruh. One of my personal inspirations, much to my wife's chagrin. 🤘🏽🎉
"you couldn't even keep up" 🤣👍 you entertain us sir. Thank you for risking great bodily harm for your viewers
I've honestly been waiting for this episode :D Thanks for making it happen, Sam! Looking forward to the front flip in the next episode ;) (Also might be dangerous/fun to attach that big fan on the recumbent!)
Hands down every clip there is, I always find myself in stitches 😂😂😂😂
The classical music when both wheels kiss the sky was just the right amount of sauce!
SO DEATH - that DOOMER - hilarious slow mo - you look so happpy
I was genuinely terrified and wholly entertained at the same time. Full send dreams
It looks like you're riding on the back of a grasshopper. 😂You're so freaking hilarious, Sam! I love your videos! 😂
i cannot say it enough you;re a mad man! i love it!
I have NEVER laughed so hard from a youtube video 😂
Thank you Sam!
Keep the crazyness rolling!
Greetings from Sweden!
Kirt Voreis recumbent bike stuff is nuts, I can’t wait to see what you get up to!
RECLINE #recline
I'm so glad he gave the recline pioneer Kirt Voreis a shout-out. Kirt has done the most hilarious (and talented) tricks on one!
I literally love your videos soooo much! Thank you for your awesomeness 🖤
I'm laughing so hard my belly hurts. Loved the history lesson!
Love the content man. You're so much fun. Loved the bit about the castle! More please! History on a bike with Sam pilgrim would complete me❤❤
Utterly brilliant. Just the clattering of it had me in hysterics.
Epic lols from start to finish:D Definitely need more of this.
Sam.. ive been waiting for the recumbent stair set of doom for Years. Thank you
Really enjoy all your videos, thanks
Yes, to another video of the recumbent in modified form for more fun and excitement! Take it to Twisted Oaks for the ultimate in sick gnarly shredding!
Saaam I'm dying laughing xDD thank you, please hit some huge kicker to airbag :-))
Me and my husband love you Sam. We were wetting ourselves laughing at this video ...... One of the best videos you've done ❤
That is just amazing that you for all your good, funny bike vids
This is a channel for laughs. Way better than mainstream "comedies" 😂
That thing needs a BACK SEAT for the downhill of death! That way you can bring your drinkin' buddies with ya
That was bloody epic mate! Your a legend! Thanks for the awesome video.
i was looking for that crack o monny :-) DREAMS !
Sick, in my hometown Tidworth too! Keep up the pure entertainment!
Top of the list of things I didn’t know I absolutely need in my life was Sam doing travel voiceovers while riding wheelies through medieval Europe.
So true, he's a bloody natural at this stuff. Next presenter for One Planet etc.? It would be epic!
the fact that both you and the recumbent survived is amazing!
Mate, the sight of that thing ripping down the trail gave me a good chuckle 🤣
What a blast!
Heavy Hammer Time Full Send... brilliant
I'm impressed!! I took my HPVelo Grasshopper off-road once; never again!!
