Frankenstein | Hydrocut, Kitchener, Ontario | MTB 

My local trails 😊 so cool that you used to ride here. If you ever come back for a visit I'd love to go for a ride 🤙

Took at nice digger on my everyday trails this week and busted my shoulder up pretty good. Doctor says I'm off the bike for 4-6 weeks. Itll be trail work and RU-vid videos for this guy. Hope your shoulder is healing up well and you keep blessing us with backlogged videos. Lord knows I'm gonna need em.

Good trail system. In the top 15. Would revisit any time since we had so much fun. Needs some more, longer rocks n root gardens. Stress less, ride more!

Fun trail. Picking up right where you left off.... shredding. 🤟

That is a sweet trail. It reminds me of the trails at Brookvale PEI. Nothing but nice dirt.

This brings up some nostalgia. And also makes me extremely grateful that I moved from Hamilton to BC 7 years ago.

insane flow....nice.

Awesome Camera Keep It 😁 Excellent Vid 😎

👍

So I rode this trail today for the first time, ate shit on the drop at the 8:33 mark and jammed my wrist pretty good lol. Came down with my back wheel first, so that would mean I probably leaned back too far or pulled up as I went over most likely? FeelsEmbarrassedMan.

Incredible. I think a nice addition to your videos would be to have a live speedometer and elevation meter on one of the corners of the video.

I did frankestein, its not technicaly hard, its just physically hard. You shouldnt start it if your tired when you get there

Thanks for posting all your videos! I'm new to the HC this year and Frankenstein is my favourite trail. Inspirational to see how fast it can be done. :-) Your Revolver is an FS as well I assume? I have a Cannondale Trail 4 hardtail, but plan on getting a full-suspension next year when bikes are available again. The question comes down to Trail vs. XC. If you could have only one for the Hydrocut, which would it be? And would you take your Revolver off things like the Godzilla drop? PS. One of your other videos asks about whether viewers like commentary. Personally I think you do a great job of annotating when there's something interesting (like whether a jump was worth it), but letting the sounds of the suspension come through at other times. Is your camera on a chest strap?

Nice trail and vieeo. I like the sound of that trail.

Great video! I mostly ride the Hydrocut and some other trails around KW, I'm having a seriously hard time picking between a YT IZZO or Jeffsy, based on your experience would the Jeffsy be too much bike? (29er full sus with 150mm front and back). I currently ride an old 26" hard tail and am new to modern bikes. would love to hear your thoughts.

Awesome upload m8. I'm looking to get into this sport but don't have a suitable bike. Do you have any recommendations on a good affordable bike that would be sufficient for exactly these types of trails? I'm in my early 30's and fit, if that makes any difference. I looked up your bike but its nowhere near what I can afford haha, that's a Norco right? Thanks!

Do you use tire inserts?

Would you recommend this for beginners like me?

hey dale, love your vids! It´s probably been asked already, but could you tell me what bell you have on your bike? Maybe you have a link. Peter

Hey Dale. Nice vid man. Do you wear a microphone? And what wind filter do you use for your gopro?

Do you know any good trails around Oakville

are you ever coming back to bc

Any reason why this trail is rated Black diamond?

You need a little musical accompaniment to this vid... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-beVT54OsBm4.html About the same tempo as your riding. That was fun!

1.4 miles? not really XC in my book...but love the trail. and riding up fast on someone and then basically yelling at them to move is a real dick move. you probably ruined his ride and maybe that was his first time too on that trail??? be nice.
