My First Downhill Park | Spirit Mountain | Duluth, MN

Spirit Mountain in Duluth, MN offers some exciting downhill mountain bike trails. A chair lift with no lines at the bottom means you can easily rip down the hill over a dozen times a day without breaking a sweat.
A couple hours North of the Twin Cities, with great views of Lake Superior and everything from flow trails to bike busting tech, Spirit Mountain is worth the lift fee, and should be on your hit list of Minnesota Trails.

Great video, gave me some insight on what trails I want to ride when I go next weekend

[@robonbikes]

Thanks @Nolan Arch, glad to hear this will be helpful, that’s the whole point of making the videos. Have fun when you go!

Great vid, stoked for Spirt this year!

[@robonbikes]

Yeah man I need to get back there!

This looks awesome. It's always cool going to a ski resort in the summer. Such transformation. Never been too spirit mountain no matter in winter or summer. Def will have to come here sometime. I've been mountain biking at lutsen as a kid.a few times, that was incredible. Haven't done any mountain biking as an adult. Once more when I was 18 but that's hardly an adult so call it another one for the "as a kid" category.
So stoked to get back into it. But as an adult I'll just have to take things a bit slow and I really really don't want to get hurt. One because getting hurt just generally sucks and two mostly because it would keep me from doing cool shit for however many days lol

[@robonbikes]

Ha ha yeah my main reason is the “it would keep me from doing cool shit” reason. Giants Ridge near Biwabik has lift access downhill trails as well. They look awesome, I’m hoping to get there this Summer.

@@robonbikes hell yeah. I'm majorly stoked for the summer but for now equally stoked for winter with this whole snowboarding thing🏂

[@coaltynscreatures4635]

The trail @ 7:04 is called Wild Cat, an offshoot of happy camper

[@robonbikes]

Good to know! Thanks for watching!

[@danm5023]

I think with trail ratings it's only relative to the specific mountain or trail system. Can't be used to accurately compare trails between two different places. Of course usually greens one place usually tend to be pretty similar to greens at another bit not a guarantee

[@robonbikes]

100% true! I’ve learned that since, thought of even doing a video on that!

[@brockgunderson7841]

Surprise guest feature!!

[@robonbikes]

You could be next!

[@conniegerster1708]

Did you do this all in one day? I'm exhausted watching! so fun to watch.

[@robonbikes]

Yes!! One fun, rip-roaring day. It was an easy day though, chairlift did all the climbing…

[@jackbugbee7720]

I recommend giants ridge it’s super fun and mello

[@robonbikes]

Awesome good to know! I’ve been meaning to check that out sometime, should make it sooner than later.

[@jackbugbee7720]

@@robonbikes yea it’s super fun and sick the trails are really well built

[@stephenschloemer]

I think you spent more time in the air than on the ground...

[@robonbikes]

And we didn’t even hit the really big jumps.
