58:11 The Three Amigos saved the village of Santa Poco because the villagers knew how to sew. Great tip of the week! I have saved a lot of money by repairing gloves and pads.
Right?!?! Gear is too expensive these days. And with the stuff we ride, sewing is paramount, lol. Thanks for commenting Jeff! Sage
One of my favorite movies!! "The people of Santa Poco can conquer their own personal El Guapo, who also happens to be 'the actual' El Guapo!" Thanks for listening, commenting and supporting the pod Jeff!! - Dan
Coming from a dirt jump background, the airtime becomes the thing you seek with mountain bikes. It’s a completely different body position, angle, etc. and I will absolutely agree repetition helps learn this new skill! Getting a hardtail or DJ and taking on trail systems kitting for jumps is the best way to “jump” into this new discipline!
Yes!!! I'm super excited for this new development in our progression. Thank you for the encouragement, advice, and tips. Sage
I'm envious of your dj background! I do like jumping my hardtail but I'm still not comfortable in the air....YET!! It's definitely happening! Appreciate the tips & thanks for commenting! Great stuff! - Dan
@@TheRideAbides so happy to see you guys ride ceres! There’s some maintenance that needs to be done, but would love to get a ride in out there with you guys, I’m suuuure there will be more features to ride too ;)
great podcast today guys. glad your ok Dan. sew like the wind Sage
Another Three Amigos reference 😂
I sew better than I ride Erin ;) Thanks for commenting. Sage
@@RideLaughPodcast If that's true, I have some gear I need you to knit. *TrailSage handcrafted kneepads!!
The move Dan unlocked is a tabletop, or the start of one. You got it Dan - flatten the bike out!
I'm so jealous. Thanks for the comment Josh. Sage
THANKS Josh!! It's happening!! - Dan
The Toot Toot has wheels!
Sage was right, Tempest used to be a Black. I think the beginning of last season they changed it to blue.
Lol yes!!!!
Right on Vinny. I thought so. Thanks for confirming. Sage
@@vinvec5805 Ah ha! That's what we thought. I guess Tempest is a black with the optional features & Anthem drop but you could really roll the whole thing too. Creek is just so much fun!! Great meeting you Vinny! Thanks for commenting! - Dan
Love my G-Form pads, not terribly hot in the summer and very comfortable.
Right on Pat. G-Form for the win!!! Sage
Right!? I've tried some others but the G-Form have been my favorites by far! Thanks for commenting as always Pat! - Dan
They don't call them braking bumps on the road...it's called "washboard". Same effect, definitely not caused by braking, as it can go on for miles, up, down, and level, but as you say, braking can aggravate the situation in places. Eastern Washington rider here, desert riding, rock and hardpack, not like the west side forest and loam that most people are familiar with. Lots of slow rock tech, my favorite.
Yo Stan, that sounds awesome!! You had me at slow rock tech ;) Might have to make a trip to Washington for a Ride and Laugh recon ride. Sage
@@RideLaughPodcast you wouldn't regret riding here, that's for sure. Although most of the stuff that I ride will not be found on Trailforks. Lots of BLM land all around me, but not many established trails, just lots of interesting, ridable terrain. I would recommend the Winthrop area, or perhaps Leavenworth, with the Xanadu trail, or it's neighbor, Tres Hombres. Amazing technical ridge rides. I personally have not been on one of these, but the footage looks amazing, next on my list.
@@stanmustard7292 This sounds like some Ride & Laugh approved tech!! Let us know if you hit any of those trails. A few sound familiar... - Dan
Love this!! I’m the worst as a solo rider. I get so much negative in my head. I’m gonna start going into a feature with a better mental attitude.
Right on Johnnie! The mental game and attitude are just as important as skill IMO. Now when are you coming up to PA so we can ride together? Sage
Yes dude! It's so mental. You're a good rider. Believe it, unlock the skills you ALREADY have and flow through those sketchy Florida wooden features with confidence & ease! :) - Dan
Man I love Creek so much, now that I've moved a bit further south in MD, Creek is even further away but I absolutely need to make it out with you guys some time. Dan! I did the same exact thing on Upper Dominion's biggest jump LOL, pre-ride lap turned into full send and before you know it I'm unsuccessfully attempting a backflip 😂, glad you were mostly okay on your hit, sounds like a rough one for sure.
Yikes!!!! Glad you were ok Zane! Riding Creek with you and your boys would be so fun. Keep us posted. Sage
I think I recall that now from your Creek video. I'm going to go back & watch again! Maybe it's a lanky thing!? LOL! Glad we both walked away!! - Dan
