Cross ANOTHER ONE off the bucket list | Mountain Biking Lord of the Squirrels | BK vs. BC Episode 8

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ส.ค. 2018
- Just another bucket list mountain bike ride I was lucky enough to bag during this trip. Eric and I did a ton of climbing and a fair amount of hiking through the snow. But it was oh so worth it! If you make it to Whistler, get outside of the bike park and explore all the great mountain biking you haven't heard of. #BKvsBC

I base the gnar/fun factor of a trail off of how many "ha HAAAA"s I hear from Brian. This was a good one :D
Haha exactly!!
Brian needs to get a sticker made up that says: ha HAAAA"s
What an awesome ride, it’s on the bucket list. Don’t worry about not riding ‘hard’ enough. I like the chatting and a pace that gives me the illusion I might be able to keep up.
Haha thanks dude. I was thinking about this on the ride today!
I was so happy when we found out they had opened the trail! I was afraid you wouldn't get to ride it! So amazing up there!
Thanks for mentioning when this trail is open man- we're visiting BC from the UK for the first time in early September. Stoked to know it should be open! Can't wait! 😁
This has been a great series from you both
Pretty glad we got to hit it. Otherwise I would have maybe had to fly back on a random weekend just to do it!!
Eric is kind of like the Harry Dean Stanton of mountain biking.
Bruce MacNeil haha, I'll take that as a compliment!
Your videos lately have been insane! Blown away by the beauty and technicality of BC. Can't wait to go back :)
BC is the damned best thing ever. Probably need to move their for a month every summer now.
Hey Brian, I rode this last August in the smoke of the Pemberton fires. Nice to see your video of a clear day.
We got lucky! Lots of fires happening all around
Dude, great to see the you rode Happy Hour! And thanks for the shout out and compliments! Looks like you guys are having a total blast!
Glad you told us to do it!! It was a great day.
The tire skidding on rock slabs has to be one of the best sounds in the world 😍
No doubt about it!
This ride is truly epic in every sense, and probably one of the best in the world. Rode it last year, will never forget the first time. Awesome. 😊
So dang good! We ripped that descent so damn fast it was a blur of awesomeness.
Thanks for sharing Brian. Absolutely loving the series. I've only been riding a year but living in BC so I'm definitely making that ride a bucket list event.
Awesome! You've got a lot of great stuff all around you!
What a privilege to come along with you two in this spectacular ride!!
Thanks Grant!!
Beautifully scenic trails, so envious, 😆
Get out there!!
Brian, I cant believe how quickly you have gone from a few thousand to 180K subscribed. Keep up the great content, I've been with you since your original bike testing episodes!
Glad you're still enjoying the videos Chris!! It's been a wild 2 years.
While you were riding the whole time I was thinking about bikepacking it. Now that I know you're going bike paling I'm so stoked to get in the mood to train for this ride! Keep up the fantastic riding Brian!
Hell yes!!
Two hours from the valley to On the Rocks? These dudes are legit climbers! Loving these series guys, killing it.
Hell yeah man!!
Wow amazing. BK continues to rip. So beautiful up there. Need to get better at riding so I can do some of those trails
This is definitely worth setting a goal for!!
Brian, that has to be one of the most beautiful trails I've seen yet on your channel. Spectacular!
Thanks Ben, it was a good one, so glad we got to do it!
Wow. Insanely beautiful up there. Added to bucket list for sure

The most beautiful trail I’ve ever seen. Thank you for taking us on that journey. I presume today is a rest day!
Glad to hear that!! Haha nope, we rode right into the backcountry the next day.
This video is therapy.
Happy BC day guys! I'm so lucky to have this trail in my back yard. Thank you for all the awesome content!
You live in a wonderful place dude!
That is one hell of an epic ride, that climb must have been a killer but so rewarding at the same time 🤘🏻

Brilliant ride & trail beautiful place, it’s a proper mountain ride when you see snow in the summer on the trails 😍

Mountainbiking in awesome sceneries with nice dudes? Yes, thats what i like! What an amazing place Brian! I always have to watch the BC videos several times! At least once because of cycling and once because of the beautiful nature! Good stuff!
So glad to hear you're digging the series!
Such a nice place to ride your bike. The BK vs. BC rides are really good fun to watch!

I am loving this combo of riders. Two of my favorites to follow. One for some stellar local trails and one because of all the new places you ride. Thank you for the episodic Meetup :).

Wow, that trail really is one for the bucket list. Super nice video has always Brian.
Top of the list, no doubt!
Wow! I don't think fitness is an issue riding these trails ... with all the stops i would make to soak up this beautyful surroundings! A genuine bucket list ride.
Yep, you can take your time and it'd still be great!
Brian, you've been to a ton of places but I have to say the views from this ride are some of the best! Just beautiful!
Yeah, the colors, the contrast, it was so wild!
Wow dude just jaw dropping scenery, not a bad life getting to travel the world just to ride your bike in some of the most beautiful (and gnarly) trails on Earth!. Loving your vids, good job 👍👍
It's pretty amazing !
Great stuff! Look forward to the bikepacking...✔

OMG those lakes unreal !!
Everything up there looked fake!
No doubt

Dy-no-mite! Love it man.
Haha thanks Chris!!!
Wow.... Big effort to get to the top but well rewarded with an epic decent with awesome vistas 🤘
Man those trails look flipping awesome
They're so dang good!!
The scenery when you climb was epic!!
It was one of a kind!
Heading out to Whistler next week and planning to ride this so the timing of the video couldn't have been better! Looks like you're having a crazy time out there, keep them coming!
Awesome! Have a blast dude
Great riding and great trails...KUDOS
Thanks bud!!
Eric is right that was EPIC!! 🙏
Thanks dude, it was a good one!
Props for doing such an epic ride Brian & Eric. I'm on your Patreons and missed you at Whistler Bike Park by like two days so I'm gutted. I only explored the park .. next time I'll do some pedalling!
Definitely get outside the park next time! Hopefully we gave you a couple good ideas!!
That small rock that beat Eric seemed so easy on video. I can only imagine how it felt after hours of climbing.
The rock wall climb?? Haha, it was straight up 5 feet!
a beautiful route
Loved it!
I must say your improving from the day 1 i saw your video bro.... Keep it up.
Glad to hear it!
Hell yea.... loved this!
Thanks Coach!
Wow @ 2 minutes, the view in the background as you round the turn and crest!
Unreal!
Stunning part of the world
Big time!
That was so stinking beautiful!
Thanks man!!
Nice video. Keep up the good work
Thanks bud!
Super sick trail!!
Thanks!!
That was an unbelievably beautiful trail, planning a BC/whistler tip next summer this just went to the top of my list.
Oh hell yeah! Hope you make it happen
Have fun in the Chilcotins, I have friends who have done that trip and it is quite epic!
Thanks dude!!
Dude... unbelievable ride! I need to build up my fitness for a ride like this but it's on my bucket list for sure.
It's a worthy goal to build up to!
Great video. I think Brian won this one nailing that climb on the rock face. Eric fell off it. Lol.
Hahaha that was a classic moment
Great ride Brian. That trail looks fantastic. Have bought myself a Rallon today. Should be ready in about a weeks time for me.
Wow that's awesome!!
Geez that's the nicest trail I've seen...like a mtb magazine add up there!
Exactly what I thought!
Awesome !
Thanks bro!
Amazing place!
Thanks !
Fresh back from Morzine!!!
4 weeks until America!
And while I’m there our first Grandchild will be born !
Another mtb tribe member!
Brian I’ve made the time ride and life is very good!
That's so cool to hear Mitch!!
Epic views!
Some of the BEST
that is some of the most beautiful country ive seen..would be insane in real life..RAD!!
It really is insane in real life!
Serious climbing day on the bike.
Huge!
Well Done Brother Man
Cheers
Thanks Travis
Damn, you've been getting plenty of high altitude, technical riding riding lately! All good prep for for Tibet trip! Awesome stuff!
So much good training!!
ALL of the cinemas...
Big time!
Epic!
The definition of epic!
i like how you post in your videos the time and miles traveled. all i can say is wow. im working to get to those distances per ride.
I've been happy to add that info in!
Who gives a 👎 let alone 2? Great vids as usual!
Haha they always out there!
Best trail yet!!! I live on the wrong continent 😉
Haha get your ass over here!
damn dawg, that was some gnarly tech there!
The total package!!
That’s a epic ride, never saw the total time at the end? You guys are animal’s! Killer views too
Haha, nice cool down dude. I do the same during my rides.🏊♂️
Thanks man!!
Oh nooooooo! I missed you guy's! I rode lord of squirrel twice last week... And I'm returning Paris tomorrow! Geeez!!! Really great trail by the way 👍👍👍💥💥💥💥
Wow, pretty awesome you did it twice!
Yeaaah... well 1st time it took me something like 5h to get to the top! 4 the second time! i wanted to do it a third time...but the legs wouldn't follow ! by the way thank you for all the videos! i have to say sometimes it is too long for me... but i always enjoy going on trail with you! it is really inspiring! so keep it up!!!
Very envious
It's a good one!
Saw this on Eric’s vid first time last year and was blown away! So stoked Brian got to hit it. Wished the royal squirrel made his appearance (with crown and scepter). Eric your spill seemed to exude tired surrender. Held it like a champ though. What do you guys do for recovery between rides? I still sore from watching last one.
Hahaha the true Emperor Squirrel would not present himself!! I always try to eat a lot after a ride. High protein type meals. Sleep is always a huge factor as well. I can't believe how well my body coped with this trip.
Wow this is unreal
Pretty good one Pete!
Hey man, you inspired me to get a gimbal and start a TH-cam channel. My TH-cam has grown a little and I just want to thank you for making entertaining videos
should change your name though- there´s a much bigger channel with the exact same name
Glad to hear it dude!! Yeah, name change might be a good idea. I keep getting you confused with Andrew.
holy shit, this looks incredible
It's pretty good!
Amazing trail!! 5:13...when I see trail like that, I always wonder..."How in the heck did they build that?" Then at 11:50, just based on what I know about GoPro flattening things out, there's NO WAY that little section is not a black based solely on IMBA's requirements for grade alone. In fact, I saw several sections that were definitely at least black, if not double black, at most places.
Great riding, and that I agree with BC POV...that trail looks like a special one for sure. Incredible scenery, and it looked like it was one of those "gotta be on your toes" the whole way type of experiences, which I love, because they make the miles go by!
Haha yeah, at that point we had finished Lord of the Squirrels and were into double black territory!!
I feel like there is a new BKXC on this trip. I like him, I think? Yeah who am I kidding the new BKXC is a fucking savage!
Haha glad to hear it!!
Did you see Van Morrison’s ghost? Supposedly the name of that song was originally “Into the Misty”.
Spooky!
Looks like the way down was the gnarliest part
Big time!
