    I cant believe you both kept the bikes upright through those crazy downhill sections & ruts, and then got put to shame by that small rock at the gate. Great riding & filming as always SAFA.

      Rather crash at 1mph than 40. We'll take it 😂

    Payson's spill was so relatable. It's always the silliest thing that happens and you're down

    Hope to see more rides with Payson. His personality and chatting makes the video fun. Great ride.

    Boys having fun. Oh, and me too, I've come off twice in the past couple of years going very slowly round gate posts.

    I’ve always been curious if I’ve pushed my Able to it's limit and now after watching this video I know the answer is a resounding “no”

    Wow. Amazing ride. Beautiful cuts between the drone and the trail. Also, I don't feel so bad now when I "crash" at 1/2 a mph.

  • @deflep007
    @deflep007 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    unbelievable footage, and guts..to think when I ride and go above 20 mph , I think I'm going fast , great job

    The color of the scott addict gravel 30 is really amazing!
    So lucky I got the same one (stock gear) this summer. A lot of turning heads when on tour ... :-)
    Even better looking when wet - so even riding in the rain is no pain but joy.

    Dayum. I don't know what terrified me more. 20 mph on the edge of a cliff in gnarly terrain or 40 mph through the hood. Amazing stuff

    People like Safa need their fix, most of us do in one way or another, but not to an extreme. Good to see a healthy outlet like cycling, rather than heroin.

    It’s good to know that you guys were on edge on that terrain like your viewers. I would be fearful if a catastrophic failure in the carbon from all of that abuse so to hear that you guys also marvel at the strength and durability of carbon fiber is a comfort. Exhilarating and spine chilling all at the same time!

  • @BoogieBrew

    This precise route through Ramirez Canyon encompasses parts of my standard ride in the Santa Monicas when visiting SoCal!...Our friends live right at the bottom of the canyon, (so cool to see you & Payson cruise past their driveway). We LOVE sneaking under the PCH through the that tunnel, too! Celebrity stat: Miley Cyrus's place is a little ways above the tunnel: A lot of the homes in this canyon burnt down in the infamous fires a couple of years back, (including parts of Miley's property). There used to be a rad triangulated dome home at the top below the loosest section off Latigo, but sadly it too burned down, so it's making me a tad emotional & nostalgic to see you traversing this area. Watching this makes me wanna come down from NorCal this winter to revisit, though 👌.
