Excellent summary of what OZ has to offer. Glad you enjoyed! Your edit captured much of the better/best trails. One more thing to note is these trail builders (a half dozen or more 3-5 man crews)NEVER stop working, massaging, upgrading, intensifying and improving these trails, adding alt lines........ it's a constantly evolving trail system 🤙
I ride dirt bikes but all these videos of this trail system is making me want to move my family there and start mountain biking. It’s definitely put Arkansas on my short list once we get out of CA.
Just ran across your video, great job capturing some of our best trails. Next time you're in Bentonville look us up - Shuttle Hound - we will shuttle you to different trails and you can session your favorites all day long. All we need is a safe place to pull over and drop you off and pick you up. Like the shuttle at Leatherwood, we drop you at the top and pick you up at the bottom or anywhere the trail crosses a road. They've already added so much since you've been here and keep adding more! Happy shredding!
Awesome! My wife and I just went here to visit while we were evacuated from hurricane Laura. Unfortunately we did not have bikes with us but now the plan is to put our house on the market and move up there! Lucky I even had a interview while I was there and got a pretty decent job! Can’t wait! Awesome video!! Hope y’all come back soon.
Great video, guys! I'm what you could call one of the "old guard" of CT bmx riders, transplanted many years ago to Texas. My son and I will be in Bentonville in March. You mentioned heading back there in the spring. If by some weird coincidence you happen to also be pointed that direction while we're there, definitely give a holler (or of course if you're ever headed to North Texas)
@ 1:28 Just a heads up to anyone planning a trip to Eureka Springs, you must buy a "lift bracelet at the marina as the driver of the sanctioned park shuttle is not allowed to take payment. There are a few non-sanctioned shuttles that cost a little more that you Can buy a lift bracelet from though ($25).
@@freendeed8410 I got my eye on the rock cliff drop thing at the bottom. Chickened out last time. We're heading there at the end of the month. Super stoked to check all the new stuff out since going last year!
Well now that Scott lives there.... I think a proper Northeastern Cycling Reunion Trip is in order.... Also, I didn't see one suicide no hander out of Joey... disappointed! (though the jump to manual was slick). That place looks AWESOME. (note to self: bring full face for the big stuff) -a13x
Nice vid! I stopped there on my way back from Utah last spring. Got chased out by rain after one day but the time I spent there was sweet. Can't wait to hit it during this year's road trip.
Much appreciated!! It was a GoPro Hero 7 for all the footage. A few clips early on my helmet but then switched to the chesty mount for a majority of the trip! 1080 24p with wide or Superview setting. 👍🏻
Are the trails in bentonville good for beginners? I am a seasoned mtb'er but my wife and 9 year old daughter are complete noobs. My wife doesn't even have a bike, she would have to rent one. Are the trails close to the bike shops good for anybody to ride on?
Bentonville has a great mix of options for all levels! Eureka Springs, Coler Mountain Bike Preserve, and Back 40 had some expert level trails but there are still plenty for beginners. If you hit up Phat Tire Bike shop for rentals you can hop on trails literally two blocks away and ride for hours!
If I had to choose I would recommend staying in Bentonville since there is a LOT you can ride right from the center of town. And Coler is a 5 min drive or 15 min bike ride from downtown. Just a LOT of variety right there without doing the long drive to Eureka Springs.
Bentonville's trails are basically what happens if you take a mountain biking enthusiast and give him a near unlimited budget to create a trail system.
Bentonville and surrounding areas are midwest MTB gems!
Most definitely!!

Wow, I have always heard of Bentonville as a MTB destination but never really considered it until I watched your video! Good stuff!
It's only gotten bigger and better since 2019!
I ride dirt bikes but all these videos of this trail system is making me want to move my family there and start mountain biking. It’s definitely put Arkansas on my short list once we get out of CA.
Also some amazing single track for Dirtbikes in missouri as well. Lots in Arkansas about 2hrs south of Bville.
Just don't come here and vote for the demonrats. Please.

Omg thanks for not casing every feature like 95% of videos on here. This is what I wanted to see!
Ha thanks, we do our best!
So many new trails in Bentonville. I can assure you that when you come back it will be even better than the first time!!!!!
Sadly our trip for this Spring is in jeopardy, very slim chance that it happens :(

Looks like a blast! Amazing machine groomed trails, glory jump lines etc. Hoping to head there in a few months when Canada is too cold!

Coming your way tomorrow, keep an eye out for another coral Delano Peak on the trails! :)
Nice edit and video! I've been there several times and you did a great job of capturing the trails.
Thank you!!

This is true!

Great job capturing so many areas there! 👌Definitely hit the boneyard and the newer soiltec trail on slaughter pen when you go back!
VERY excited to hit all the new stuff that’s been added since we last went!! 🤘🏻
Definitely...the Boneyard is a hidden gem. It's BIG. Broke my shoulder there last year. All healed up this yr and back at it...💪
Also now adding an alt line at the top of Ozone. Huge jump line.

Bentonville is life 🤙🏾💪🏾🤘🏾, nice video🤜🏾
Dude I’ve been to eureka a few times and some of those blues get techyyyyyy
They get rowdy real quick!!
When will yall be back next? Would love to meet up for a ride!
Hoping for a late Spring/early Summer trip in 2021!
As someone from the area, that was a great tour of what NWA has to offer. On a side note, what is your GoPro setup?

i live there its dope also have been in that airport
I'll be there for one day do you recommend Eureka Springs over Bentonville

Pretty much!
Do you twist your bars to the left every jump to help keep your direction? or is it just habit? thx
Tough to tell cause you can’t see the back end of the bike but they are small whips, as an attempt at extra style points 😜
@@MTBMA oh ok thats cool. Im just getting into jumping and was wondering if it was helping control the bike while in the air. Style points awarded
that dog park is in bellvista right
Bentonville
Man your channel should be huge awesome job 👍😎💪 💯👏 just subbed wouldn't mind to do a collaboration with you some time shred on sir 🤘🏻
