Not All Bikes Survived This Trail

- It's always nice to challenge yourself on the bike. For me, this is close to the ultimate challenge, and definitely at the limit of my comfort. But it was so much fun last month that I'm back again already, this time to show @VanCan what the big deal is. There's a lot to take in here, so we took our time going feature by feature in an effort to clean as much as possible. Probably one of my favourite videos of the year, enjoy! :)
If TH-cam can be trusted, go show the builders some love:

This ride was too eventful
We'll look back with fond memories several years from now, probably.
Was wondering why you were back on the Enduro... rowdy trail!
Not Hating but bikes shouldn't fail that easily. Man I hate G Out drops ! Time to give up the plastic . Love your videos and some amazing trails !
I think the trail builder just dragged his giant balls through the mountains!
Love your comment at the end “that trail is about at the limit of what I can do and what I WANT to do”. I respect the idea of pushing limits and progressing, but I question the rationale (or, better, the rationality) behind some of the things I’ve seen online. I like that you have a healthy respect for what it is you are doing.
For Nic to buckle the frame like that, can only imagine the g-force. Glad it’s warranty covered.
Great video as always Dale.
I'm definitely not here to push the limits of the sport, just my personal limits. And if I'm not 100% confident in my abilities then something ain't gonna happen. 🙃
@@DaleStone hopefully Mama Stone is comfortable with that answer! 😉 oh, and congrats on 8k!
"did not like that trail. Scary scary stuff."
@@DaleStone that is exactly what I said!!!
Can’t believe he rode all that with a busted frame! Glad it worked out!
A terrifying thing to notice at the bottom of any trail, let alone this one! 😬
Forget the frame, how did Dale ride THAT without knee pads?!
@@DaleStone Better you notice it afterwards than the hard way while riding i'd say ;) Lucky it held up to the finish line...
Makes it easier when you don’t notice until you get back to the parking lot 😬
Sorry about the bike , diesel wolf claimed another victim haha. I'm the builder and ridden this trail over 30 times . Always found it safe and reasonably chill even on my hardtail. I guess that's perspective though. Also helps riding this one in ideal conditions.
Thanks for the amazing trail! Shoot me a message on IG @dudextr and I'll get you sorted with a little beer money. 🤘
@@DaleStone thanks for the offer dude. Nice riding, you rode it well . I liked your comment on track stand when you can . That's the way to ride it !
There aren't enough trails where you have to actually stop and think about what's going on before dropping into something, and I love that stuff.
@@DaleStone hey Dale. Hope this message gets to you . Ive had a really tough year with cancer . Unfortunately its spread to my lungs recently. My parents started a go fund me page to help pay for my cancer immunotherapy drug I'm taking costing up to 60,000 . Would really appreciate any help to spread the word .
Thanks
Brandon
@@hobbes8737 donated. Rest up Brandon, in a few months/years this will hopefully all be a thing of the past! I'm going to give this a think as to how best to put the word out there, stay tuned.
13:00.... I can sense the continuous fear and giggling in your voices. 🤣
Just found your channel. Awesome stuff! You all make these trails look somewhat manageable which is a tribute to your riding abilities. I like how calculated you are in approaching the really tech stuff. Enjoy your content and style. Great work!
Thanks Otis! Calculated might as well be my middle name. 🤓
Wow…… amazing riding. I was glued to this one. Scary trail- and another broken bike for VanCan 🤔hope it works out in the warranty dept!
I remember seeing this a few months back on VanCan and when I heard it on his pov video I thought he broke something!! Luckly he made it back with the frame snapped and I'm glad his frame was replaced without to much hassle!! Great video!!
"Hmm, that is a problem." LOL
That was SUPER FUN to watch!! Thanks for the vid!! 8)
you guys drive me crazy, not for all the money in the world. Big respect to you!!
great video , definitely a trail to enjoy when ur safely down and the heart stops pounding
Wow.., time to test evils warranty. That cannot be an expected failure mode… geez. Oh and insane trail! If GoPro gives picker factor I can’t even imagine
They have to cover claims like this or they lose credibility selling a 166mm travel bike like the Wreckoning. Yeah it was a hard g-out but it's not like he jumped off a 2 story building to flat concrete...
@@hobmarg If the rider doesn't "break" the frame shouldn't either ;)
Your heartrate is 180 BPM and you sound as calm as can be. Great video! I'm living vicariously by watching your vids.
Spin class leading coming in handy!
That is some awesome trails, skills and commitment to ride them! While I feel along way off personaly from attempting that level of riding (both skills-wise and distance-wise (I'm 6000miles away!) I have nevertheless learnt a lot from you about how to approach these types of technical trails and features, so a big thank you for that.👍😊
your videos are so chill, i could watch them all day
After watching the two of you fairly religiously for going on two years.... Your strength is racing, XC, and REALLY technical jank. Nic's strength is just plain solid all round biking, BMX type skills and trials, and sending big stuff. I do remember seeing you send some HUGE jump and/or gap 8 months to a year ago.
Pretty much! I'd like to think I'm decent at riding slow trails fast, and Nic is excellent at riding fast trails fast. Easy to determine who leads that way haha.
@@DaleStone Yep. Agreed. Specialties. Would want Dale for Pemberton. Nic for Fade To Black. Both of you = tremendous riding skillz.
Many people who only watch, but don't ride, don't realize just how steep some areas are, cameras, especially GoPro, don't do it justice, so when something looks this steep even on a GoPro, you know it's a crazy gnarly route.
P.S I live just 10 minutes from Guelph Lake Ontario. It definitely has similar looks, just not as nice as the area in the video.
GNAR...awesome trail and nice work gentlemen
Diesel wolf wrecked the Wreckoning, that's sad, incredible riding from both of you, when it looks this gnarly from the gopro it means it's scary af in real life!
One like = one thoughts and prayers for Nic. 🙏
@@DaleStone I’m sure ◣◢ will take care of it no question 💪🏼
Holy Moly... dales and nicks comments at the end killed me :D
Another great Sunday morning with Dale and the bell. The stoke is high and now it's time to go ride some tech!
Gnarrrrly! Well done lads
Such a sick trail! Can’t wait to ride this one again. Solid job on all those wild sections 🤘🏼 Sad the train gap is no more though :(
Agreed, though I will hedge bets that it will be rebuilt again!
Ride it dude ! I built diesel wolf ;-)
Bummer the Evil couldn’t survive the gnar ☠️
RIP Nick’s bike :( 🚲
Hopefully covered under warranty!
There's literal video evidence that it was caused by a massive g-out. Crash replacement price would be fair.
Not a crash though! If Nic easily held on, that seems unfair.
@@DaleStone agreed, this is not a crash 💥 just him biking and the frame gave out at a weak spot (the bolt for the water bottle) and also, not that this riding isn’t impressive because it sure is - and entertaining! - but there are crazier trails others have ridden (Rémy comes to mind). If this is a crash I don’t see what else would qualify to be warrantied… like you can only bike on flat featureless trails? Seems like manufacturer agrees too and is replacing 🤘Now I just hope it doesn’t take a year to get it replaced!
@@DaleStone I guess I have to stand corected. Technically not a crash, plus being over the bolt hole makes it a warranty
.
It's a mountain bike. It is meant to do stuff like this.
That first roll with the insane g-out👀 i saw the roll and went: that's a vertical cliff, sir😆
It feels like you're looking at a sharp 90°+ compression at the bottom, haha.
Brilliant skills Dale! Respect your commitment on that trail, I echo the comment from the Scottish gentleman wishing I had some of your terrain over here!
th-cam.com/video/fakOuCcEDsc/w-d-xo.html
Scotland has loads of tech ! Where do you ride ??? Not much in tbe way of rock rollers or slabs like this but defo equal amounts of tech and steepness etc.
This trail looks INSANE! Even with the GoPro effect!
Thanks man ! I built it .
@@hobbes8737 Wow props! Hope to be able to ride it one day!
Gnarly, great ride guys
Nutty stuff. Great riding by both of you. Hopefully Evil has enough supply to sort our VanCan. As crazy as what you guys did was, who the fu#$ hits that drop at 12:56?
Not Matt Beer (DH national champ) or Remy, so I haven't a clue!
@@DaleStone Yoann Barelli 18:30 th-cam.com/video/7msaSY1T5tw/w-d-xo.html
@@DaleStone Remy has hit it, its the train gap, used to have a wooden kicker, I'm sure it's been destroyed for obvious reasons lol
@crustybill whoa, didn't see that, that's awesome!
@relic not the train gap, the random drop. 🙂
Who needs knee pads on a scary trail - it's all about confidence! ;-)
Think of the aerodynamic losses! 📉
@@DaleStone Excellent point - list of advantages is sheer endless! :-D
just found your channel, really like it so far :) your riding style is very similar to mine, which means i can sorta imagine myself going down these crazy trails, nice vid
Thanks! A rare style no doubt haha
Top notch riding!
Insane guys! The perspective from the bottom looking up really lets me know that my brain is trying to write checks my ass cant cash yet!
This makes my heart go on TH-cam image in real life I could not do this
Crazy Miss that when When I was in whistler good to see it anyway looks amazing features
Looks great, Id love to ride this. Im sure it's steeper than what it looks on this video though.
One of your best videos Dale.
Thanks, I agree! 😊
man thats evil !! and then you laugh!! good lad!
Surely Norco has been knocking on @VanCan's door. :)
Awesome riding, that is some crazy jank stuff. That Evil tough, crazy.
Nothing jank about my trail good sir
@@hobbes8737 if you're the builder, it's jank in all it's awesomeness. I could only dream to ride a trial like that from out east. Someday maybe.
@@dimimtb if you can dream it you can doit !
STEEEEEEEEP!
Nice looking trail that mate... :D
Thanks man I built it !
I wish we had more of this slow-speed tech in Scotland, but most of it is just steep fast, and rooty trails in the woods or fast rocky trails on the moorland. MUST BE NICE!
Surely there must be some eh? Same mountain range as east coast Canada which apparently has lots!
@@DaleStone theres not any where I live which sucks, I would need to go either up to the highlands or down to the borders to get riding like that, but when I get a car Ill be going fucking everywhere.
@@DaleStone there is loads ! You should come to Scotland after the Corona issues calm down . World class trails and some of the best scenery I've ever seen.
Woow precision RIDE :)
You got a new subscriber after that sketchy ride. Nice job pointing out the different lines you could ride. Definitely appreciate different views, I have really started to stop and study the gnarlier spots instead of just riding through it. Age I guess makes you a little more cautious .😱
Thanks Lance, hope I can keep it up! 🙃
Love you man
man that was intense. especially with those socks.
I can smell the brakes from here!
If you were to break a frame on a trail, this one was appropriate. 🤘
That camera quality is amazing 😳
ohh that 's how he cracked his evil !
I think you have the skills to take on Trespasser. I also suggest Dead Dog in Golden.
The lack of knee pads astonishes me. I feel naked riding without mine.
I'm choosing to let it find me instead of searching it out. 🙂 Dead dog is definitely on the list, looks absolutely insane!
3:55 after my buddy breaks his bike....I’ll be trying the B line.
Very nice! Let the foot soldiers go first
Haha, had no idea it was broken at that point! But yes, go scout Nic, thanks. 🙈
Awesome video as usual. How many frames had Nick killed so far? That trail, i'm sure it's claimed a few.
Around 5-6 I believe.
shit that looks fun!
i do hope he still had warranty on that frame and it got covered.
5:34 probably just the GoPro effect making this look so small but it looks like it could be a nice lil' kicker over that dip
It does look like that, but that move is also one of the worst compressions on the trail, surprisingly! 😅
@@DaleStone Yeesh, no doubt, it looked like a really hard hit!
Seriously!?! Amazing riding guys. I wouldn't touch that trail.
congrats on 8k subs!
🍻
If it looks steep on a GoPro it must be nuts in person.
This would be Dnarly on my dirt bike much less a bicycle! Nice!
Just send it to Calfee for a repair. That's an easy spot to repair and the paint work is super simple.
I would walk every bit of that.
no knee pads for the....mental strength ;-)....? a great trail and riding though!
Wow we see Dale biking, but we never see Dale running! 5:03
That's because absolutely nobody, especially my physios, wants to see that. 🙈
You've got a great narration voice
Power
Old title: Disel wolf is the scariest trail I’ve ever ridden
👀
was it just me who heard Dales heartbeat in there :)
The GoPro does NOT show a fair representation of how bloody steep that actually is. Well done 😎
Your video quality is EPIC! What are you using? What's your trick?
No tricks, just a hero 8!
No Kneepads? You´re a good rider but one bad crash mate... the landscape is fantastic, iam so jealouse
Just don't crash. :)
@@DaleStone well look at Barelli, also the best gonna crash
Обожаю Канаду. Красивые трейлы!
Нет ничего подобного! :)
Excellent edit, always makes me uber jealous living in WI and not having trails/features like there. But, quick question. How do you keep your brakes clean. I never hear your whips squealing bloody murder with the tremendous loads you put them through.
I honestly have no idea. Rarely bleed them, never wash my bike, change pads past overdue. Shimano brakes just work! 🤷♂️
That's awesome, I've got xt but they howl like a poltergeist at an exorcism at slow speeds until they heat up a bit. Maybe it's time for a pad cleaning or replacement. Thanks dude, keep killin it! 🚵🏽🤘🏾
Great video! I am a new subscriber. Beautiful footage! What camera are you using?
8 Black!
that skinny / drop at 12:57 looks insane, would pay money to see someone fly off that.
That makes two of us!
ok pay me some money then ! haha. i built that drop .
OMG!!!!!!!
Sweet video! Quick question how do you mount your GoPro to your chin like that
Flat sticky mount.
Sunday Dale Stone > Sunday Church. 🤣
that looked steep on the gopro!
Oh what a bummer the train gap is closed.
i feel a little thick not having noticed it before, but when did the classic bell get changed? as always, great video ☺️
Need something more durable than ol' orange. 💪
What tire combo do you use. They seem to have great grip.
Usually DHF/DHF, but I have some sort of Vittoria on the rear now. Seems to work!
Looks pretty scary and I'm sure the GoPro isn't capturing the true steepness.
"The tree at least will stop you"....
... like a cheese grater ;)
Awesome vid. How does it compare to trails like trunk monkey?
Much, much steeper, more commited and more exposed. I'd say Trunk Monkey requires more finesse to clean, and Diesel Wolf is more about confidence.
I guess Evil bike are not northshore approved....
Great, entertaining video! Why would you ride with a fullface helmet but no knee pads? I feel really naked without knee pads anytime I'm even near a bike 😅
Thermodynamics. 😎
Nick vexed by the Curse o’ the Clydesdale
I wish i could ride this kind of trail here in Korea.
Build it and they will come! 🙂
My roommate rode it two weeks ago in the pouring rain and cleaned it.
Good god that sounds exciting.
Tell him to try and ride it with the worst ever hangover the day after his 40th bday...not that I'd know
tech... lol
with all the jumps you guys land THIS is what cracked a frame seems odd
That impact was intense!
You sound so much like the pro gamer Aculite
👀👀👀
Man, its dangerous to descend at such high HR if you're not in a race. You will make more mistakes and will have less control. Please invest in your physical endurance and stay safe!
Have to train somehow! 🙂
Hi dale, is this possible on a hardtail xc bike? Grts
There aren't any huge impacts, but wish you the best of luck... 🙏
no its not. i have a hardtail that i can ride this trail on , but not a xc hardtail . haha .
Hey Dale, what's on top of the stem on your bike? I can't tell...
A matching top cap from 9point8.
@@DaleStone you quicker the my edit!
ok dude... WEAR SOME FKN KNEEPADS!
Does anyone know where this trail is? I am planning a trip out there in June and would like to ride this trail.
