    Looks like an awesome destination. I think it's great that you include footage of features that you do not clean. It keeps you human and relatable. Keep up the great work.

      Downieville is a real fun place to go! Yep, I keep it as real as I can (yesterday's video was all my crashes from 2016).

    I just went there last Friday for the first time. Watched your video first though. It was epic! I even met another TH-camr out there. The climbing towards the end was brutal and I experienced my first ever cramp, but all in all it was a fantastic day. Checking out more of your videos. Thanks!

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awesome! Glad you got out there!

    Great video man! The Downieville series of trails are some of my all time favorites! Also, a little tip, if you pause your video at around 8:06, and look to your left, there's a power station or something there. Go into that fenced area, and head past the equipment, and the little building. Up about 100ft further, there's a rocky swimming hole that has a mini waterfall that can be used as a water slide, and it's absolutely beautiful!. It's a wonderful place to eat a snack and cool down between runs. Check it out when/if you go there next :) Cheers!

    Rode here last Tuesday. Such a great day! Still snow at the top and the waterfall crossing was running pretty good, so had to walk it. Two shuttles with Downieville Outfitters, classy operation. Thanks for the vid, they helped immensely.

    I love the raw sound with no music

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah, me too. The audio is a HUGE part of doing it right! Certain bikes are silent as well and it really adds to the experience.

  • @thephoenixcycle8854
    @thephoenixcycle8854 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    that looks so amazing! overall it doesn't look terribly rough, not like I was expecting.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's great! Only a couple really rough sections. I rode it again after Spain and it felt really flat in comparison.

    • @thephoenixcycle8854

    Fun looking trails! The first part is a lot like Mill Creek Canyon, the top area. All the pine trees and the way the trails look. You can shuttle from Mill Creek up to Guardsman Pass at the top of Big Cottonwood Canyon. I think you would enjoy it. The whole ride along the crest trail into Mill Creek Canyon looks a lot like this. There are open areas along the crest trail where you get some good views. The single track guy has a good video of it.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nice, I'll have to get there!

    This is the first video of yours I found, just searching for Downieville. Our front desk girl just got into road biking, and I was showing her your videos. Turns out you know he boyfriend, Brian Giles from the college newspaper! Small world!!!

    Great videos!!! Every Time i watch your reviews i get excited to go out ride my bike and dream about visiting all these places your riding in the U.S. Hopefully that in the future you could show us other angles also like the landscape of the trail park. Might i suggest getting a drone like the phantom.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Kevin! I have a drone but it's just hard to get it out there while riding. I want to get some more diverse footage but it's a tough tradeoff.

    Excellent video, thanks! D´ville´s fun, but have you ridden around Lake Tahoe? Start with Toads, Armstrong Connector-Corral, or Cold Creek-Star Lake, then branch out. I haven´t been back to DV since I started riding there.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Doug Mann Yup! My favorite is shuttling from Spooner and down Van Sickle. Also up Van Sickle and then down Star Lake. Can't wait to get there this summer!

    5:38 was someone there trying to pan for gold? If so I'm guessing that's not allowed. Also awesome stuff this ones on my list tower to town ride definitely looks amazing I'm guessing its an all day event. Cheers Brian

  • @rogertheartfuldodger
    @rogertheartfuldodger 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another fine MTB vid. I hope you have an opportunity to ride The Northeast Kingdom in Vermont some day. Since you like Downieville and Tahoe I think you would dig the Kingdom. Check it out in the web. Lots of local rippers to give you the dollar tour. Ride on man.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I hope so too!! Thanks bud

    Cool video man . Wish we had them trails in the uk. Debating Hightower or bronson myself coming from a Capra.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +Guvzor Thanks, man! Not a fan of the Capra?

    • @Guvzor
      @Guvzor 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I had 2 cracked frames, Bos forks went faulty and waited 3 month for bos to fix. So when the 3rd frame cracked I got a refund. Was on the original Capra pro. 170mm bit over kill in 90% places I ride in uk as I like to climb to get the good downs.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Damn, 170mm is overkill but you still cracked three frames! Hightower is quite fun, but it was a little too easy. Bronson is still #1 after riding a lot of bikes.

  • @keithbaker5932
    @keithbaker5932 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great videos! Downieville/Sierra Buttes is on the destination bucket list. Are any of the trails in this vid portions of the Classic race course(s)?

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Keith! I think the classic goes down First Divide and I went down Second. But definitely some overlap!

  • @TonyFernandezjkdjedi

    • @bkxc

    what is the name of that map app? I drove through last year and saw all the nice dh bikes. I had no time to stop and ask questions. but it inspired me. I have watched a couple of videos and looked around for a decent deal on a dh bike. I got an 05 specialized big hit comp. built it up. and I now feel like I cannot utilize this bikes potential anywhere in yuba/Sutter county. I am going to downyville soon and would like to take my bike down some aggressive trails. could you give me some advise.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I use Trailforks, it's great! Yuba Expeditions, the bike shop / shuttle company in Downieville is shut down until next year, but that's who I would ask for help!

  • @sohaibyounus
    @sohaibyounus 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice video man, I just visited Downieville about a month ago. I hit the trail too hard being my first time on a downhill trail, good thing I had the Bronson CC that is one hell of a bike! I got into some crazy crashes, If you see them you certainly won't be disappointed. I will be watching your channel to see more trails around Bay Area. Good luck and keep up the good work!

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Sohaib Younus Hahaha, I'm imagining the crashes now. Thanks for the kind words, see you on the trail!

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hahaha, oh man you are a good sport to have that many crashes and still be psyched to ride!

    • @sohaibyounus
      @sohaibyounus 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      +BK-XC lol yeah. as long as I keep learning I don't mind. I crashes 4 times on the first run and only once on the second run, so I am satisfied with my progress lol

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      This year the snow probably won't be gone for quite a long time. But who knows, next year might be dry and May might be a possibility.

  • @sacpike
    @sacpike 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    @bkxc have you always ridden with cleats? Are you always clipped in? It seems like you unclip without issue. It would be awesome if could do a short video on clipping in and out, lessons you learned, etc.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep, the key is multi-release cleats. They come out really easily.

  • @Ericswenson12
    @Ericswenson12 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome video! It's so smooth, how did you film it? It looks like a chest mount but the camera stays stationary when the bike moves from side to side, and the video doesn't seem to get affected by the bumps. How?

    So i'm preparing for a little bit of an epic ride in about a month up in Boulder, it's 66 miles, 6,600 feet of climbing. takes about 8 hours. I'll have a friend or two with me. But other than that I have never done a big ride like that. The only thing I'm worried about is the water situation. What d you think i should do? also any tips on how I can put the route INTO my garmin 800 would be great. thanks and keep making great videos!

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awesome, man! For water I would check out Aquamira drops: amzn.to/29V4keP They are super compact, follow the instructions, mix the two chemicals and put them into your water and in about 15 minutes you're good to drink.
      As for the route, create it in Strava: www.strava.com/routes/new and once you save it you can click "export" and it will give you instructions on how to add it to your GPS.
      Thanks for the love, dude! That ride will be epic!

    • @DepewRacingMotoSport

    @erichouser9587 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just found your video while researching the DD trails and love it. I've just started mountain biking and have camped in the Pack Saddle area every year for many years. My wife and I want to try the trails down to Downieville but are beginners and my wife rides a hard tail. We used to ride dirt bikes in the area many years ago. Is the main route down to D'ville doable for beginners if we take our time?

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Anything's possible if you take your time! There'd be a lot of stuff you'd have to walk around and it might end up taking you 4 or so hours to get down if you're going slow.

    • @erichouser9587
      @erichouser9587 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for letting me know. Most of your video looks like it would be a blast, short of a couple rocky sections. We can ride, just not fast lol. I'm glad you put the time into perspective, because I'll have a friend take us up and then pick us up in Downieville later. We camp at Sardine Lake every summer for a little over a week so we're right there.

  • @connormeans5928

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Depends all on your ability. I can do it in about 90 minutes with no stops but I think it's more like 2.5 hours for most people.

    Do you think I'll be able to have fun on my hardtail here? I live about an hour and a half away and it seems smooth enough for the most part.

      If you ride other gnarly stuff on your hardtail I don't see this being any different!

    So is it like $20 per shuttle? How long would you say each ride is?

    it would be grate if you made an intro with the bikes description .. :)

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah, I agree, but these videos get so long that I try to separate the talk about the trail from the talk about the bike. So I did an entire video on the bike here: th-cam.com/video/VzHvAYT-iUs/w-d-xo.html

      I only rode this for a day, so all I can say is that I didn't get any flats!

    Is it possible to do all these trails on a hard tail Trek Pro Caliber 9.9 - Carbon 29er ? I have very legit technical MTB skills. NO fear, but I am just wondering... If did Tahoe - Flume, Armstrong Pass, and Corral all on a previous hardtail (inferior Diamond back aluminum) Would I have any reason to worry about any sections shown in the video?

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just rent a full suspension bike at Yuba Expeditions. I'm sure people do it on a hardtail, I would not.

      This falls under Rule #9. Just because you CAN - doesn't mean you SHOULD. Got it.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm sure people have been launched off with varying results. Definitely makes the ride more exciting, but I would hate to make some dumb little mistake and get my neck broken.
