      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The Loam Ranger’s #1 Fan hey! Glad to hear I've inspired you to get out there -- that's what this channel is all about! If you could please not use my logo for your profile pic I would really appreciate it. It can be confusing for other people viewing the comments or searching for channels. Thanks!
      Now go buy that bike and start shredding.

    I love the whirring as well as the sounds, when the tires move on the dirt and wood...Is that weird?

  • @survivorguy5607

    Ok I will make sure to change my pick only before I do, do you have any advice

  • @JordanBoostmaster
    @JordanBoostmaster 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Are you actually not allowed to shuttle past that point?? I have done that once years ago though, maybe it's a new thing

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Jordan Boostmaster ya it's pretty frowned upon... although you can shuttle up to the right instead, but it's not a direct shot to Half Nelson.

  • @gouyleonard8711
    @gouyleonard8711 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Sweet ride! Have you decided what will be your next bike? maybe the new reign?

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The new bike is on it's way as I type this. Not a Reign this time around! Cant wait.

  • @beazye428
    @beazye428 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Hey i was wondering can you do another video on those trails like the blue velvet one?

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ya! I'd say this one is pretty close, but a fair amount shorter than Blue Velvet. Another video/trail that's similar to that one would be my Una Moss video (th-cam.com/video/Yjiy-5Uxsqg/w-d-xo.html) as well as my Crank It Up video (th-cam.com/video/8OuYKeMhwTM/w-d-xo.html). Aaand Hula Girl on Mt.Swansea is high speed and flowy too! th-cam.com/video/eU07OwWekj0/w-d-xo.html I'll be posting some more fast, flowy jump trails in the future, for sure. Cheers!

Yesterday I got for math a 8;4/10 so if I keep watchin your vids I Will have my first full suspension! In otter Words; you make awesome video’s keep iT up!

      @somnambulantable 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      There's so many! I really love the ones up around Alice Lake though, generally. Like Rupert's and Room With A View and In & Out. I like the rock rolls/slabs. Those things feel quintessentially "Squamish" to me.

    • @keehotee1357
      @keehotee1357 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Have not ridden there much, but Rupert and Leave of Absence are awesome. I'll be back in 2018 God willing.

    What bike do you recommend do you think Carr era vulcans are goofy

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Never heard of that one! Recommending a bike is tough because it really depends on the type of riding you're wanting to do, and your budget. The Giant Reign I was riding in this one is great for most conditions and can handle some scarier stuff too.

  • @fokkesm9832
    @fokkesm9832 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What is that outro song. Btw I love your video they're really relaxing.

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! I made the music for the outro's. It was initially made for the "Coastal Escape" video I did a while back. th-cam.com/video/tJZa-OnReRI/w-d-xo.html

    • @fokkesm9832
      @fokkesm9832 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh, you did a great job then, I like it a lot. I thought it was part of a longer song.

    How often do you go riding with your better half?

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not as often as I'd like, that's for sure. Probably once every few weeks in the summer. We've got two kids, so a lot of times, one of us is back with them while the other rides. We make it work!

  • @didierja
    @didierja 6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I want to go here, but I dont have a mountainbike. Is iT worth buying one when your still in high school? Cause i dont know if I Will have enough time. (Ps. Great vids, keep up the great work!🙂)

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Didier. I'd say rent a bike or two first to see what you like and don't like. It's a big purchase, for sure!

    • @xHellraiser162x
      @xHellraiser162x 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well it depends on how much money you have access too. My hard tail merida big seven cost 1200. But i was hooked as soon as i tried mountain biking on my brothers bike. So i would agree in saying rent or try it out on a bike that you dont own.

    The Loam Ranger no gimbal for that run eh?

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      No I was using a gimbal for this. It was just hating its life because I didn't have it set up properly at the time haha.

      Timo Van Arkel I'm headed to Phoenix next week but plans are still up in the air after that. I'd like to do 3-4 trips though. It's gonna be a good winter!

    Do you think you’ll ever come to the UK to ride the trails here?

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Isaac heck yes I will! I'm always looking at new trip ideas and I'd love to get out that way. When's the best time of year for riding?

    • @Isaac-hu3lq
      @Isaac-hu3lq 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The Loam Ranger The best time is probably as summer ends and the start of autumn. I go riding up around Surrey hills and a place called the Look Out Swinley Forrest. They’re great fun if you go on the more difficult routes.

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good to know. I'll have to look into it for fall 2018.

  • @connerp466
    @connerp466 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Is it worth buying a Walmart mountain bike for this? I want to do this but don't have the money to buy one near as good as yours.

    • @TheLoamRanger
      @TheLoamRanger  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      +ZeZy Gaming I wouldn't recommend a Walmart bike for something like this. Check out the buy/sell section on Pinkbike for some decent deals on good bikes. Or rent a few times while you get into the sport. Those department store bikes are just made to *look* like mountain bikes, but aren't actually built for rough trails.
      Hope that helps!
