  • Today we're riding the Hardest Trails at Empire 47 This Video is sponsored by Quebec City Mountain Biking - who brought us out to explore five impressive trail networks. One Region Five centers | Our Itinerary ➡️ www.quebecvelodemontagne.com/...
    Empire 47 - or e47 is the 3rd stop on our Quebec trip (it was supposed to be the second but it was very rainy the day before). Empire 47 is looks like a small unsuspecting network, but this place packs a punch. From Beginner terrain to Big Jumps and Technical terrain they have it all.
    For Lodging we stayed at the Manor Lac DeLage which was literally across the street.

      He's not riding it blind. He is being towed by a local who obviously knows the trails well. But it's still amazing how well he does and keeps up with the guide while maintaining his composure and casually talking about it on his first runs on trails that I would never even try to ride.

    As a 34 yo newbie, I’ve been riding 5 days a week on my hardtail for the last month. Learned a lot from watching you and I hit my first black diamond rock garden/trail called giddy up yesterday. I was stoked! Then riding back to the truck on the green family trail, wheel got loose and bam! Broken collarbone. So I’ll be watching your videos for the next 6 weeks and hoping I don’t loose my progression!

    I have always been in awe of your ability to just send it blind. Even though I've seen it many times, this time I thought Phil Freerides, Rerides, and then Prerides came to me just before you said it.

      To be fair, it was not quite finished so i didnt get the full experience. Nevertheless its gonna be a sick trail. I did feel a little dirty riding it. Im trusting the builder was indeed okay with us riding it, but i know different builders can be rather particular about people riding their stuff before it's finished which i completely understand.

      So i brought my ebike (which they asked us to) and my Sensor. We ended up only doing one ebike ride. My sensor is a better do it all bike, but it can get a little overwhelmed when things get extra chunky. I still think it was the better choice but there's definitely moments where having more travel would be nice.
