Eric and Seth have inspired me to pick up my bike and start riding it like I used to. You guys have also caused me to spend a lot money on bikes but I have earned more joy than from any other activity that I can think of. Keep up the great work.
I live in Kentucky but I live 2hours away from Louisville. I got a 24 inch for Christmas I have been jumping it but it is a trail bike. I also ride dirt bikes
I am really enjoying your videos. I love the family dynamic and admire your positive and humble attitude. Watching your videos is so much better for me than what some of the other creators are offering me. THANK YOU!!!
you guys should've checked out O'bannon state park its not far from lousville (like an hour, its in indiana) i live super close to it and could've shown you guys around. the trails there are amazing. Great video by the way, love to see familiar places.
I'll say it again, way to be raising those boys, teach them that most of the time, things don't come easy and require hard work, keep em climbing and riding those rocky, rooty tech trails to earn the fun descents. Sweet logo your friend came up with, really think it encases you and your personality - trail work is as important as trail riding.
Good to hear I'm not the only one who feels that way with the hard work! Glad you like the logo too, Jeral is amazing, took a while to get it refined to where it is now!
Your kids are so adorable. It's so great to watch your family riding together and having so much fun. Thanks for letting us take part in your MTB life. All the best from Germany :)
Great video! As a father of a 1 year old I love the family aspect you bring to your videos! You do a great job teaching and training your sons! My daughter is getting a balance bike for Christmas so 🤞 she enjoys biking!
Nice looking merch! I am loving this series! So nice to see the different places your going and how you and your family all get along. As an artist I LOVE that you are sharing the importance of art with them!!
Tarzan, my son, spent SO many hours at the Louisville Skate Park. He was staple there. He loved that place, and the people of Louisville. #ILOVEYOUJOSHUA
Your videos are so wholesome and honest. I can’t wait til my kids are old enough to shred. Great job to both Milo and Owen for clearing that big table!
YES!!! Memory Lane sir....my hometown, grew up racing BMX @ Tom Sawyer and I remember that skate park when there was zero graffiti! My wife and I recently got into MTB and did Seneca trail by the golf course. Can’t wait to get back and see family. Stumbled onto your channel checking out Bentonville, it’s great info and great entertainment. Your boys crack us up! Maybe we’ll see you out on the trails! If you ever hit some Florida tracks that is.
That's awesome, I raced out at Tom Sawyer a bit too, and was there when they built the skatepark. The new addition makes it even better! I'd love to come ride Florida sometime, hopefully we can make it happen!
Thanks for sharing. I don't think I've seen a mountain bike video inspiring us to aspire to chase our dreams and develop or talents in other fields of interest. You always hear the expression to be happy... do what you love. This trip showed us great examples of folks doing just that.
Mountain Biking in Kentucky is never talked about. If its on your way you should stop in Lexington Ky (where I live). The mountain biking scene there is growing like crazy. A good place to check out if u go is West Sixth Farm. Great new trails, a brewery, and great people who know what they're doing!
Eric, next time you come home, make sure you do it when the Silo Center Bike Park is open! Not sure if you've been able to ride it yet, but it's a blast. Less techy than Cherokee/Seneca, but some great jump lines, and next to several multi use flowy trails.
Thank you for doing this videos! About six months ago I had depression and I wouldn't do anything i just sat inside looking at youtube but then I saw this channel so I decided to by a bike and go outside and now I ride my bike everyday. Thank you!
I never had the chance to have kids. And never really reggreted it until now haha. Only started MTB at 40. And watching you being the awesome dad you are with your two little shredders, I can tell you, If i was to be a dad I hope I would be just like you.
Love this What a great start with berm peak and now Porter MTB!! This is my favorite channel. Someday I hope to be as great of a dad as you are! such goals
Awesome seeing my hometown featured! Cherokee is where I learned to ride in my early twenties. One of my boys wanted to ride the skate park with you guys. He’s not riding yet, but this certainly inspired him
This was an awesome video. Inspirational in so many ways as far as family time, bike riding and my fav... art. And most of all just going all out and doing what you love. Can’t wait to show this to my son
I recently went back and watched a bunch of your old video's. It's very cool to see that you are progressing as a film maker! I love your content, keep it up!
This is such a great video you are one of my idols you are so good at biking and have also such great kids too! Keep making great videos and thanks for the new video!
Really love this video!! Eric super inspirational! Meeting your artist friends and getting in touch with how and where. “It” all began. And and to meet these amazing and incredibly talented friends who followed their passions in life in such interesting ways. Simply a rad group of dudes...
I think I was in middle school when they built the skate park. I was always down there on mtbs and cruisers. I'm still here in louisville, trying to find my way to be somebody. Good to see a fellow Louisvillian that made it. Too bad Falls City Community Bike Works has been closed practically all year, I used to volunteer a lot there. A guy who used to volunteer there; Drew Echelbeger had cycled all over America and some of Mexico like two years ago. My biggest feat was riding a beach cruiser to Lex. Well, I was glad to see this pop up in my feed. Take care, man.
Gerald is a great guy and funny too. He did our mural on the side of our bike shop and yes we're a diamondback dealer too. Hint hint stop by when your back on Louisville Eric.
Loving the content with the kids, me and my 12 year old son are just getting into mountain biking in the UK so it’s great to pick up tips and ideas etc.
Punk and skatepark go together like afterwork brew and youtubes🤘🍺 Skateboarding and punk music in highschool have def shaped my interests throughout the rest of my life thus far. Also chris stapleton and jason isbell 🎸 🎸 🤠🤠🤘🤘 Alkaline trio!
Here's the link to the merch! Thank you all for the amazing support!

Oi if I knew someone is famous as you was going to be down there I would have made my way to ya
Me and my friends are usually down there and a lot of the times we go down there participating in the bike meets
It’s a great day, first thing in the morning and berm peak and porter MTB post

That's great to hear, mountain biking has made my life better as well!
Amazing park,... and you pretty much had it all to yourself 👍🏻
Yeah we got lucky, went first think in the morning when it was chill!
I live in Kentucky but I live 2hours away from Louisville. I got a 24 inch for Christmas I have been jumping it but it is a trail bike. I also ride dirt bikes
Who else loves how porter and seth have been posting the same day! I love your videos porter.

It's a great day!
@@PorterMTB except for the fact that I just got back from a ride and may have a broken leg now😂🤣
@@timmyfranks4087 haha for real?? Hope not, that sounds super painful!
@@PorterMTB yah for real, feeling better now tho😄
edit: turns out not broken😀😀

I know, we really wanted to, but we ran out of time! Next Louisville visit we'll go there for sure!
So many good memories at that skatepark with you! I thought it had been torn down, relieved to see that it's still going strong!
Yeah for sure!! It's even better than when we used to ride there!
Nope, as you can see; they expanded it a few years ago. Currently the doors to the bathroom are welded shut.
Thanks for another great stop on the roadtrip. Your videos always have that good balance of schtick, realness, information, and action.
Good to hear, glad you're enjoying the vids!
Awesome! Thanks for having me along for the fun. Louisville is such a Great place for bikes and art, we love it here.
I'm so glad this all worked out, we've had a lot of good times over the years, let's keep it rolling!
Owen, you are HILARIOUS 😆
I know right?
Totally!
I'll say it again, way to be raising those boys, teach them that most of the time, things don't come easy and require hard work, keep em climbing and riding those rocky, rooty tech trails to earn the fun descents. Sweet logo your friend came up with, really think it encases you and your personality - trail work is as important as trail riding.
Good to hear I'm not the only one who feels that way with the hard work! Glad you like the logo too, Jeral is amazing, took a while to get it refined to where it is now!
This is one on the coolest family’s on earth!
Your kids are so adorable. It's so great to watch your family riding together and having so much fun. Thanks for letting us take part in your MTB life. All the best from Germany :)
Thank you! I hope to be able to visit Germany again one day!
Awesome friends. I love the shirts and hoodies
Thanks! Those are some really good friends doing amazing stuff.
Your channel is awesome!
Great video! As a father of a 1 year old I love the family aspect you bring to your videos! You do a great job teaching and training your sons! My daughter is getting a balance bike for Christmas so 🤞 she enjoys biking!
That's so awesome, kids are lucky to start on balance bikes!
Is so great to see you getting out on the bikes with your family! Maybe I should start giving it a shot! Great video
Do it!! Just remember to have patience and keep it fun, especially with different ability levels.
What a great family. Those kids are lucky to grow up like this.
Thanks! They are very lucky
Nice looking merch! I am loving this series! So nice to see the different places your going and how you and your family all get along. As an artist I LOVE that you are sharing the importance of art with them!!
Thank you! It's been a fun series to talk about art a bit more, and really cool to showcase the artists!
The sound of the tires is so satisfying
This is great! The last video was insane and this one is too! Seth has posted too so I’ll check that out!
TH-cam is definitely more important than Spanish class!
Yup
Or math class when you don't understand what's going on 👀
No... just school in general bois
There is really no point in Spanish class! Spanish class should be swapped out with a Mountain Biking class or something!
@@minimtb3154 ya I enjoy my French classes tho
I saw that Berm Peak posted and that you posted and I had no clue who to watch first😂
That's a good problem to have!
Bearm Peak and Porter MTB posted today , thats the dream
Last week Single Track posted and Seth and Porter in the same day and I almost shit myself
Ha ha
ok that us cool
It's a great day!
Another truly inspirational video. I cant wait to show my son this one. He loves skateboards and drawing
Thanks! Your son sounds awesome!
Really enjoy seeing the family trip. Thanks for introducing us to Tidwell awesome artist
As someone with the last name of Porter, hell yeah im buying some merch!
Rad!!! Great name!

We got you!! 👊
Those art studios were awesome, and I just put a porter mtb hoodie on my Christmas list!
Awesome! Thank you!
Love that your showing others who are following their passion... Anyone who follows their true path, will always live a content life... Great episode!
Thanks, I agree!
Tarzan, my son, spent SO many hours at the Louisville Skate Park. He was staple there. He loved that place, and the people of Louisville. #ILOVEYOUJOSHUA
Just ordered a shirt! I absolutely love your channel! I have recent broken my foot while riding. Watching your videos is keeping my spirits high!
Oh no, hopefully it heals fast! Glad I can help with the recovery with the videos!
It was great to see you riding Cherokee. I was there yesterday.
Was there last week! Love it!
I love that place, spent so much time riding there growing up!
I'll say this every time I watch your videos, absolutely the best dad ever and such a good person!

Your videos are so wholesome and honest. I can’t wait til my kids are old enough to shred.

First timer here and I love the content. I hope to ride with my little girl soon.
That's awesome, welcome aboard! You are gonna have so much fun with her!
Riding bikes together might be one of the best ways to spend time and relate to your kids.
Lucky kids...being taught to turn passions into a living. Wish I'd learnt that at a young age. Good on you Mr P
Dude shirts are rad! Fun watching the development and process of creating the press!
Thanks Bryce!!! Hope you're well, can't wait to see you again!
Another great video! That skatepark in Louisville is legendary. I can't believe how empty it was.
It is legendary, we hit it first thing in the morning so it would be chill. Had it all to ourselves!
@@PorterMTB That's awesome!
I love hoodies too, even when it's not winter time!!!
Awesome seeing my hometown featured! Cherokee is where I learned to ride in my early twenties. One of my boys wanted to ride the skate park with you guys. He’s not riding yet, but this certainly inspired him

Thanks! Jeral is really good
Proud dad moments... (Driving) "Hey kids look out the window... it's a big thing!"

Late comment but I live in Louisville and it’s amazing to think that the guy that got me into mtb grew up there
What's up! Louisville is a great place to grow up riding, lots of good spots. Hope we get to shred one day!
I usually ride at turkey run park they have great trails there hope I see you one day too ❤️
You should go to the anthills in Houston Texas the have a whole dirt jump section but also a eight mile loop.
I would love to, I've never ridden in Texas!
Punk and skatepark go together like afterwork brew and youtubes🤘🍺
Skateboarding and punk music in highschool have def shaped my interests throughout the rest of my life thus far. Also chris stapleton and jason isbell 🎸 🎸 🤠🤠🤘🤘

I agree on all those! We need to hang out sometime!
So happy to see you guys stop by my home state! Kentucky Has a hope for mountain biking scene
One of the best videos I have ever seen on YT, thank you guys.
Love this channel, not all about the bikes it’s more about the story and people you meet
The camo hoodie would be great as an adult option too you guys. :-) Thanks!
I know, I love it too!
Super cool! That looks like a great place to grow up! 👍🙂
It really is a good place to grow up
