Thanks again, Brian! So fun having you in the area. Can't wait to have you come back for more brake boiling rides. Ely Mountain and Blind Squirrel await your return. Our passion is showing off the trails in the Yosemite South Gate area and providing phenomenal customer service at our unique bike shop!
I used to live 30-40 minutes away from here and I have a tent cabin that's been in my family for over 100years right by there!! Such a great area to bike.
Great to see that Yeti being ridden and not hanging on a wall or on display in some shop window. My own 30th Anniversary SB6 has been ridden hard since 2015. The whole second half reminds me of Southern Spain riding.
Just started really trying to ride mountain bikes when I turned 40 last year. From the area and did Maryjane and Willow creek three months ago. Such a blast. Thank you for showing our great area up here!
That slab was insane! I'm guessing that you've "never felt the need for pants" because you've never ridden in VT in November....I was out last Friday for a quick 10 mile ride and it was 17 degrees. I don't own any "pants" but if it's below 20 and going to stay there I damn sure break out the tights. Thanks for the video Brian.
I love that you put, 'I never really feel the need for pants', out there with no explanation. I'm sure everyone one here knows what you mean but if it were taken out of context 🤣
Hola, great video man quick question , how many miles is this ride ? And if you can provide the starting point and end point. I would highly appreciate. Love your channel keep it up.
Why does my rear brake sound like it’s shuddering and when I slide the wheel it makes the entire wheel skip across the ground instead of a smooth slide? Also sounded like they were scrubbing pistons but the pads have plenty of life.
My friend put this bike together for his son and before I knew it he was done th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L When the son came to put it together he was surprised to see it was already done. All he had to do was take the bike to get air and be on his way. My friend did not have any major problems putting this bike together; small issue was putting one of the brakes on straight; however when the son got home he was able to fix it. The bike rides well gears move correctly; good bike for the price. Wrote review after the son took the bike. Sorry.
They are all on Trail Forks. The guys at Pedal Forward arranged the trip to showcase and encourage visitors to come. They are passionate about riding and the trails we have. No secrets, just big smiles riding Bass Lake :)
Did the people think how to adapt that forest to the climate catastrophy we cause or just cutting down trees? ;d It's great they try something, but arent everyone little terrified that soon it will all look even worse than those worst shown along the trail? ;)
In this area is already happening and fast. So many fires close to each other and the land is going ro take a while to recover. Projects like re-planting and creat sustainable trail will help. But definitely is going to get worst, is up to us to stop the devastating consequences, but fo now we will keep cutting down trees as much as we need to keep this trails running.

Can't wait to do it again!
The ride down over that long granite exposure is so cool looking.
Wow, some of the best trails you've shown in a while - epic.
Yeah man, so good!
@@bkxc if you ever find the time, a really fun 45 minute tech ride out in Livermore, brushy peak. I'd be keen to show you around.
You know your a boss when your riding in the snow. Much respect to your commitment. 💪🔥
Haha, it was worth it to get the real goods!
Those are some local legends you're riding with Brian. Thank you for showcasing our trails.
It was a blast!
Just wanted to say that i really dig the mix of riding and "property-stuff". I hope it´s not too stressfull to get both under one hat.

Most definitely very Spanish!

I used to live in fresno, ca. I am so familiar with bass lake. That was my most favorite lake in the area. I used to enjoy it more than yosemite
So cool to see you on these trails I have been blessed to hike this same exact trails for years and yes they are so beautiful.
I also don't feel a need for pants...
but neighbors always complain when I go outside.
It's a free country!!
Wow that looks amazing to ride.
Love the POV Brian. Some of the best in the biz
You got it in my man! My favorite local trail and you rocked it! Mad props to the crew, you were in great hands. So stoked!
Thanks so much Andy, it was a blast!
Love these trails! Glad the guys at pedal forward bike shop showed you around. Mary Jane and willow creek are a blast!!
Who would have thought such great trails exist in Bass Lake? Thanks for making this vid!
Curtis! good to see you on camera. Willow creek is still one of my top three MTB trails in Cali, stoked to see you got to ride it.
Wow what fantastic terrain great riding
Yes it was!
Dude, the grape smuggler, brilliant
Can I say . What a awesome inspiration you are to all things mountain biking!🤘🏻
wow, really nice trails, they look like they have great flow, awesome dirt and slabs.
Thank you so much for the inspiration. I’m starting to dream about going to North America and ride some of these trails. Would be an epic experience.
That Yeti is a nice looking rig, thanks for briefly showing it! Nice ride Brian!
Had to throw the “Grape smuggler” line in there! 😂😂😂
Looks cool there, so many great trails out there.
These trails look like so much fun! Can't wait to come back down to Cali and explore a bit!
Love from India 🥰... keep it up brother 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Such good videos!! Every damn time don’t know how you do it!!
can't help but drool at that eye candy yeti!!!
That was sick. Put it on my list no doubt.
That is one awesome trail system.
Been a while since I watched but so stoked to see your still going strong!
This is Max! Saw you last week in Bodega... great to meet you, awesome video.
Nice to meet you, dude!
Love to discuss creating a custom mountain biking or waterproof sock for you guys!
Amazing ride mate! Would love to get the chance to ride in that kind of terrain with a little snow.Thank for the video!
Wow 🤩 fantastic trail 👌
Hot damn I'm going to have to make a trip down there!
They should definitely do a shuttle service... those trails look amazing!
LOL at "they call me the grape smuggler"!
I want to see the term "good swoopage" on some swag!
Very cool!!
I’d be happy show you around Shaver Lake.
ALL great riders and in incredible shape, that Blue trail looked my speed. I have Been looking at a few new bikes, 1 is 2022 Yeti 130 top build.
i miss your big land project videos!
Looks like a nice trail 🤘🔥
In Australia we call them "budgie smugglers" hahaha

Hahaha, I am definitely a fair weather rider!!
Very good💪💪😍
California, California, California.... New Hampshire!
I love that you put, 'I never really feel the need for pants', out there with no explanation. I'm sure everyone one here knows what you mean but if it were taken out of context 🤣
Hahaha, yeah, I thought I caught them saying something about pants earlier
Funny. I just got a tiny clod of mud up my nose today while riding in similar conditions. The way it happened was a first for me too.
I was wearing pants at the time.
Hahaha!
I see all this beautiful trails I have an transition repeater pedal assist I’m I aloud
"I never felt the need for pants"...lol...I say that every morning at the breakfast table :/
You should ride some LA area trails this winter
Epic
Bass Lake is where the movie "The Great Outdoors" with John Candy and Dan Akroyd was filmed.
What!!? Now that's a fine piece of trivia.
Hola, great video man quick question , how many miles is this ride ? And if you can provide the starting point and end point. I would highly appreciate. Love your channel keep it up.
Great trails, great video! I love the Sierras :)
awesomee
You can always come to BKXC's place to catch some real mountain biking!!
grape smuggler lol
I'm headed up that way in a week or so. Are the trails well marked? Thanks
Waoooo 🚴🚴 i love this ❤❤❤
Why does my rear brake sound like it’s shuddering and when I slide the wheel it makes the entire wheel skip across the ground instead of a smooth slide? Also sounded like they were scrubbing pistons but the pads have plenty of life.
Rode it yesterday. Super fun. Very hard to follow if you don’t have a guide
Loved Mary Jane. Willow Creek kicked my ass
Dude, are you up to come to Brazil in 2022?
Toasting brake pads😊
This was excide ! Hahaha
Another awesome video 💪🏻🔥
A quick question : you use gopro to record audio from the others you ride with and lay it over when you edit ?
Check out my video gear link in the description. I use the Rode wireless setup and plug it into the GoPro
How’s the grip level being in and out of the snow like that?
Looks like an incredible ride!
It was better than I thought I would be!
Was that Fresno Dome you were riding at 9:05 ?
No.
Fresno Dome is east past Shuteye Peak

Thanks for the channel shout out too by the way. I’ve noticed you’ve dropped my name a few times in the last few months. Are you subscribed?
Hay
What was in the dudes backpack roll? Looked like a can cooler or bedroll?
Can cooler with Ipa's!
@@joalnelo solid💯
18:11 what is happening LOL
what tyre pressures are u running in this terrain?
I follow you from Iraq
“They call me the grape smuggler”……
Not meet the VC?
(13:36) Did he just say "son of a bitch"😆😆
Damn...people actually win those raffles? Was convinced it was a scam.
Entered that raffle myself- cool to see where the bike went! And for a good cause... 🚵
Long video Brian! Was it meant for Patreon?
The patron is one hour, so much riding in Basslake!
Lots of great miles = long video!
How many miles?
If you shuttle like they did around 13.
"Cyclone" Yasi. Typhoon's are northern hemisphere. Japan, etc. Common mistake made by foreigners.
Hi
Who is the lucky person that gets to carry the chainsaw to clear the logs across the trails
Kind of annoying to see you get a full tour, when me as a local basically gets told to find trails myself, because no one wants to let the secret out.
They are all on Trail Forks. The guys at Pedal Forward arranged the trip to showcase and encourage visitors to come. They are passionate about riding and the trails we have. No secrets, just big smiles riding Bass Lake :)
what is wrong with your bike? it sounds so rattily especially over rocks?|||||
Did the people think how to adapt that forest to the climate catastrophy we cause or just cutting down trees? ;d It's great they try something, but arent everyone little terrified that soon it will all look even worse than those worst shown along the trail? ;)

But definitely is going to get worst, is up to us to stop the devastating consequences, but fo now we will keep cutting down trees as much as we need to keep this trails running.
There's a lot of dead standing trees. They are not cutting down live trees.
Can't see the point of saying someone is a dropout of highschool...
That's the custom painted yeti frame from Nate Hills and Grow Cycling. :)
I enter the raffle and I was hoping to win that frame he is very lucky
