You weren't kidding that part looked dangerous
Very good. She is a natural and well done pacing behind. I am sure it’s harder to go slower for you
Nice scenery, polite talking. Like how you guide her through. But for lord's sake tell her to HOLD HER WRISTS STRAIGHT! She might hurt herself real bad holding handle bar like that.
What an exhilarating ride for us viewers, I couldn’t handle some sections, go to give U credit for taking Thuong out there as first timer.
I was pretty hesitant for a while, but she far exceeded my expectations
Great video. One of those fun hazard rides if you go too fast you can get into trouble.
cruise was in control. Thuong is a real trooper. good job.check your bikes over after
that one. the camera must be on fast shutter speed and anti shake,clear video even
over the bumps. exhilarating good ride. LETS GOOOO.
Nothing better than the coming of evening in the countryside.🇨🇦🇨🇦❤️
That looks fun. Even the tarmac section looked like you were going reasonably fast.
This course is a blast :)
Thank you. Enjoyed it very much.
Your wife is tough! A full suspension MTB would be better for some of those sections. I applaud her tenacity! 👍💪🚴
Thanks! She did great :)
I love this series :)
birdsong and sunet through the trees is just so good! had a lot of fun watching this video
Kudos to you for being super patient with your wife
took some adjusting, but pays off in dividends :)
Thank you for the ride and tour. Japan is so beautiful and peaceful. 🤗
Grrreat!...More please!
it seems more fun to ride on this trail at night time
Subscribed and falling in love with this channel. Very authentic content without any sugar-coating. Greetings from India.
So beautiful path especially the latter part of it.
This whole area is really nice
Thuong -chan ready for redbull rampage!
Way more fun going downhill! 🤣 Love the ride videos, Cruise. 👍🏻
It's the best way to go :)
Beautiful path and nice video, the first section is very techical but definitely very nice.
Thanks! It's my favorite local place to ride :)
nice place like the view
Yes! This was awesome. Your camera perspective and Thuong's efforts really show how intimidating some of these trails can be. Nice work, per usual!
PS - the acknowledgement at the end definitely gave me the warm feels.
Thanks James :)
I was amazed at how well she handled it and glad the GoPro footage turned out so well to capture it.
Sweet video dude! Gravel bikes seem so fun to ride!
Yep, you could fly up this course on a gravel bike
*Initial D's Eurobeat soundtrack starts playing in the background as the 2 of you make your decend.*
Nice choice ;)
Soooooo coool!!!
This is satisfying to watch, can imagine how much fun it is to ride. Thuong is quickly getting the hang of it, nice pace after the dangerous part. Still good to be careful there.
Love this course :)
I am very proud of her. My wife wouldn’t had done any of it. I was watching her posture on the bike and she was doing a great job. Yes, standing would had helped as well. Her hands hurt because she was gripping too hard but expected for her first time. You are teaching her well. 👍🏻
The length of descent made the almost non-stop climb up more impressive. Personally if I had to stop on a steep section like 6:08 I would lock the fork to stop it diving and throwing the weight shift forwards. Awesome job 👍🏻
Nice video. That was a little risky on the first downhill section. I kept waiting for you to ride into Thuong's back end. Thuong needs a brake light.
Thanks! I guess I was riding a little bit too close, it was a bit challenging since I wasn't riding at my normal speeds.
I love your wife's get up and go spirit! 👌🥰
She's the best :)
nice place! i miss japan 😭
Great job Thuong😃👍👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks!
Yikes at 4:23 That a girl at 5:12, Thuong, " I can do it myself." Cruise, "Nice Job!"
😁
Nice ride 🙂👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you 👍
Would love to take a 2-3 week trip to Japan and just ride throughout the country. Such beautiful lands, sights, women, and culture.
Great site! Pleasure to watch, what is counterintuitive is that you acturally ride it safer with bigger momentum. But as Cruise said, you need experience to do that correctly and of course - remember the path. Great video, though!
A couple of simple beginner MTB tips on the descent; 1) yes, lower the tire pressure a little but not too much, 2) stand on the pedals especially on the more technical sections, 3) keep the pedals at 9 & 3 for better balance, and 4) lower the saddle height a little because it makes it easier to move around on the bike for balance and traction.
Thuong did great because there aren't too many woman who would take on this challenge.
Ride Safe as always. 👍
Thanks, will do!
Thuong did absolutely great for the first time. I give her a 8/10...😀👍👌👊. The downhill descent made me nervous once you got on the payment. Probably because I biffed it on a downhill and received a 2nd degree right should separation. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward for more couple rides...😀👍👌👊🚴♀️🚴♂️
I was pretty nervous the whole time
I think a brave ride but success. I can see it will be a good ride with a little more practice.
yeah! 👌
Top 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Lots of concentration needed riding down that mountain track. Many big nasty rocks waiting for you to skid on gravel and sand and come off on one. Enjoyed the trip home.
That's a pet peeve about Japan. Drivers not stopping at pedestrian crossings and vehicles stopping anywhere just cause they have hazard lights going.
Nice ride thanks for bringing us along. Riding blind is always a lot of fun. I think Thuong would blow through most of that trail if she had an inexpensive dropper but that could also be a bad thing. :)
No doubt!
my wife and I were saying the same thing about going down random roads and trails only to find it goes nowhere. we have designated those days as adventure days so the point is to go down a new path just to see where it goes if anywhere. We have been able to link some very fun and very hidden trails together to make a fun ride away from cars and people for the most part.
Eventually the endless searching pays off :)

“This part’s a little bit dangerous”
The part where your wife tries to brake check you lol?
Seriously though, great vid as always. I’m very impressed with her ability so soon after starting.
😂
My brakes are burning! Good call man better safe than sorry with downhills. Unlike the road where its mostly flat, trails have rocks and steep drop-offs that can really hurt you and with the current state of the medical care environment, its best to play it safe.
Very true, not worth any risks right now
Wow , both of You had my heart in my mouth , I admire both of You , Great riding , too tough for me I think , but looking forward to getting my new gravel bike in June/July , then I'll know just how far a 70+ man can push hi's limits ?
Awesome, enjoy the new bike!
I'm coming to japan soon hope i can find that trail 😅 it be my first time in japan
location is in the strava link ;)
Oh never tried strava yet may download it
first downhill and on clipless/spd pedals. nice going! personally id feel safer on flats.
273like, hi my new friend, i love ride on bike , stay safe and healthy ,bike with me
Hi Cruise, downhill trail is not easy, you and your wife should wear elbow, kneel guards included Full face helmets for safety.
How fast were you traveling (at the 25:17 mark)? Looking at the video it looks fast and I'm viewing the video at normal speed. Beautiful scenery along the way.
Very fortunate of you to have a wife who shares same passion for cycling. BTW what are your tires width? I'm looking for sweet spot of tire width between tarmac & off road cycling without buying two different wheelsets.
日本語すごい上手ですね！
29:08 My Shoes are full of socks.👍
😂
Soon she will be tear...wait that trail looks a bit ruff for a noob. she got this. Very well for a first time downhill
Mountain biking could be risky, please take care and be safe
Will do :)
👍
Drop the saddles too :)
Dropper would be nice..
Another nice video. Did she forget to bring gloves?
She took them off on the climb
Anatono okusan ngak chotto kowai mitai ne? Hajimete montain bike sure desu ka?
Thinking about buying a carbon hardtail. How's your bike holding up? Have you ever crashed on it or are you ever worried that it might just up and break on you? I've never owned a carbon bike before but I've heard some stories about them. Not sure what to think.
This was my first carbon mtb, no problems yet, but I worry about crashing
So cool that your wife rides. What’s your name so I can look you up? We’re you a pro racer?
Just low level over a decade ago 😅
Looks more like a dried-up lake
Fast food thrown at you? Were they at least fresh and in mint condition?
Hi,
Have you ever trtied eBike
Is that your santic shoes? Is it still good?
Yep, check out my recent video about them.
Where is these in Toyota???
Hey Cruise, I get that Thuong's face is cuter, but still, no face reveal. When are you going to do a face reveal? Can you please show your face?
You can see my face in 90% of the videos 😅
Bit of a sedate pace for a downhill ride, perhaps you should take the lead and she will learn to send it by following?
Baby steps, will try that next time though
why is your handlebar not align perfectly?
is that green stripe supposed to be in the middle?
Around my home town here in The Netherlands there are a few MTB trails that I know about. My son (11) has a MTB. I have a Dutch upright bike with a 7-speed internal gear hub. Together we ride these trails. She seems very used to riding her MTB. I've seen your video where you gave her that bike.
On TH-cam there are videos about angry American people in traffic. Search for "Road rage America".
On TH-cam there is also a nice video about a monorail switch in Japan. th-cam.com/video/70SOmeF3K9U/w-d-xo.html
Always nice to have a MTB trail nearby. Too many depressing videos coming out of the US lately
I can climb fast but downhill are sucks 🤣
Lol oh man in America your not riding if you ain't fist fighting....the drivers are out of control here as you know...
Yep, don't miss it..
Your girlfriend is beginner MTB-rider. I think she will rides more comfortable on flat pedals instead of contacts.
That kind of riding is not for me.
You guys do not wear the proper gear to go down the mountain. No knees protectors, no elbows, not even gloves... I know you are going very slow, but, that's not wise. You fall all the time on the mountains.
