You guys are not old! I hit 45 this year and look at riding park, trails and hitting jumps as my absolute therapy. Looking to nail a flip before I’m 50 😂 @sam - best feeling is when your lad does his first laps of the garden on his own bike. Feels like I am going through the joy of biking all over again.
I'm looking at this right now with my 9 year old son. He's a huge fan of all the UK riders and an obsessive MTB fan, and he LOVED watching the Darkfest footage from Sam, Matt and Tom especially but, all the riders and co off TH-cam. Really fascinating for both of us to hear about how to mentally prepare for those insane jumps. I genuinely appreciate you making this stuff family friendly after my last comment the other day.
Sam Reynolds, a human paradox. So punk, so gnarly, so extra, but the sweetest kindest and nurturing, bonefide living biking legend. He has deffo been a massive force in the way MTB has evolved. I am so chuffed that Darkfest has stuck to it's original ethos and it'll alway be "the riders" event. Long may it continue. Take a bow Mr Sam Reynolds.
Loved this one! Great to here more inner circle stuff. Thanks to Sam for his analogy “you don’t slam into that berm the same ever again”. Man that made me feel better. Love Sam’s ideology and criteria for darkfest riders. Awesome 🤟
Please get S.R. on more regularly, he is an inspiration.... how can he be so humble talking about the 110 like it's a donut he's about to eat ❗👍🤣😂 Happy new year to you awesome dudes & cheers to you 🤟🎶
Agree with Sam completely about build up and backstory stuff. The build vids and the content in the run up to the event, for me, enhanced the whole experience enormously. What an event! What a lovely bloke Sam is! What a great episode! 👊😎🔥
Time stamps would be a huge upgrade to the visual podcast. Lets the reader know what sections are coming or what sections to skip over. Sick podcast though! Loved the conversation.
The science of big jumps is great, but all starts with trial & error! Also glad to hear I Tom has got offers of bike sponsors, but he still broke world record on £300 ebay frame!
@@TheRideCompanion My bad, it wasn't meant to sound rude, just punny. And I've been purely referring to the camera focus that seemed a bit off here, not the content at all. It IS all love!

The dark fest series if it happens it should be called dark tour
Not mad at it!!
Al Gore's Rythm and Blues Band!
hahahahaha

The science is all well and good but, SOMEBODY has to drop in!! 😂
I just wondering why Sam Pilgrim has never been invited to DKF?
DarkFest is just an anagram for FartDesk.
Unreal comment tbh hahaha
It's being an adrenaline junky! Most sports are adrenaline needed!
it's funny how they're sponsored by them, but yet they can't seem to find any... focus.
Hey, it’s all love here
