    Thanks a ton for your videos... we are planning our first ever copper harbor trip. A couple of us are experienced and a couple newer riders. Your videos are perfect for helping us plan.

    Thank you so much for your videos. Planning (I hope) a trip there next summer. Starting a "Duke" approved list for our ride.

    This looks like an amazingly beautiful place. Its 10 hours north from where we are too. Are you guys riding trail bikes or enduros?

    • @dukeofmtb
      @dukeofmtb  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is. Beautiful place for a few day vacation.
      All trail bikes.

    What bike your ride and what tires are you running up front and rear? You have a pretty capable machine for Michigan’s trails

      I'm riding a 2017 Trek Remedy here. I like the Maxxis Minion DHF & Aggressor combo for all around riding.

    • @Jacob99174
      @Jacob99174 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Great grip combo. Do you find too much rolling resistance for our trails?

    • @dukeofmtb
      @dukeofmtb  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Jacob99174 Not really, but we're more descent oriented. I want better grip for going down fast rather than less resistance for climbing. We ride for fun and couldn't care less about Strava times either.

      @Jacob99174 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m thinking more about the level of effort to push. Wouldn’t want to have to pedal on downhills to get through (I’m exaggerating)
      Thanks for the responses!

    Hi Ed and Corey, I’ve been enjoying the content for months. Thanks for all your hard work producing these videos. I can tell you too are enjoying yourselves to the maximum. Getting to copper harbor is soooo on my radar. Great video, I think I’ll take your advice to ride flow first. I heard those trails can be pretty hairy. See you out on the trails one day,✌🏼bro, all the best to you and Corey

    • @dukeofmtb
      @dukeofmtb  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm glad you like the content, dude. After "The Flow", the trails start getting really gnarly. Don't ride them solo, that's for sure.

      Yup, nice and flowy and full of jumps. Our next video is going to be on The Red Trail. Rocky and rooty all the way but with tons of straight fast sections. Love feeling the suspension do its work.
