GROTTS | Life and Long Rides 

Howie and Chris combo at Cape Epic would be awesome to watch!

Fantastic!

WOW!!!! I really like this video!!!

That was beautiful.

Love this so much!

Fantastic.

So Awesome

Great vid! I always wondered what happened to Chad. I remember racing with him at Fort Lewis in 99

I feel like Howard and Lael Wilcox were separated at birth...

Creating lifelong cyclists! Eat that for a claim @specialized

More of this please, he just makes you want to ride your bike 🙌🏻

Wow 😮well done Sir- when are you coming back to the cape epic and win it for Specialized thanks 🙏🏼

It was so cool seeing the little munchkins at the end. Just loving it

Cool inspiring story! When you love to ride it's nice to see others share your love, whether you're a pro XC racer or just a weekend warrior

I love to ride nights and mountains. On my Specialized Gravel. Yet, i need more clothes with me. I sweat a lot uphill long climbs. So i need to go full packed, to change before downhill - to dry clothes. :-) Otherwise, this movie is great - Gravel give me time not to rush, just enjoy more nature etc.

Howwie is such a treasure. Great film!

Great and inspiring story! Mission Impossible fonts at the end credits , cinematic style.

This is such a beautiful story. At its heart, it highlights the importance of building community. Incredibly inspiring, and I hope that more kids are given opportunities to participate in communities like DEVO.

Thank you for this. Reminded me why I love cycling.

Awesome, inspiring, beautiful!

Is there a strava ride to share? I'm trying to plan a ride from rico to silverton and wanted to check out these segments!

This was really enjoyable! 240plus mile ride-that's around 300kms here in Oz. Wow! And such great riding too! And loved the message at the end- totally agree! Less carbon emissions and more kids and everyone else out on bikes!

What is the name of the yellow/orange gravel bike he is riding?

Excellent movie! Thanks for showcasing some of the best people of the bike world. Way to go to all the DEVO graduates!

what's the spinning thing on the front wheel?

What a feel good story. Grots has one of those genuine contagious smiles. Follow your passion, it will always be the right path.

"A whole generation of kids that don’t drive and just ride their bike" 🫶💗

What a ride and what a story! Can I ask what happened to Donnie? :( He had to leave us very early if he was around the same age as Howard.

Legend!

cool

Look my Strava ! 🥰

What a cool guy.

Please consider adding subtitles so people with disabilities can enjoy your content.

Loved this video💯

fantastic film. It was so good that now that is over I am going for a long, rainy, bike ride in the late December gloom. Thanks!

when you're product 2023 new model ' turvo creo si evo" launch?

That Guy/kid is EVERYTHING good about people in general, whether riding or not. Blessed to have interacted with him over the years and always amazed to watch him chasing his goals. He comes from a unique generation of athletes in the Durango locale, no better mentor for that community. Well done Howard.

😊

very cool video!

Way to go buddy!

Man that was beautiful

I drive and I ride, I ride a lot in every weather, including snowy, freezing winter. I teach my kids to do the same. When my wife leaves with kids for her parents farm, I do a solo ride of 83 km to the same destination but by my gravel bike, I enjoy it much more than a car drive, though my car is a 300+ hp luxury SUV, my gravel rig still beats it for pure pleasure.

Thanks for sharing

what a great story!

Brilliant film. 👍👍

I really like Howard and the filmning and scenery.. but that bike, not even if it was given i would ride it. I would pick another in the Diverge line.

Lol. Specialized commercial/video saying biking is more about biking than racing in the first minute, after they cut anybody who isn’t a racer…

Love this!

Put Howard on a tandem bike with Lael Wilcox and I bet they would OWN tandem bike distance racing for a decade.

His demeanor reminds me of Lael Wilcox - unassuming, humble, lets the riding do the talking

If you can clean the climb on Telegraph you’re a stud in my eyes.

Israel flag is mid

Muito bonito os lugar que vocês pedala... Parabéns...

Outstanding video and what an athlete. Thank you. Take care, Al

sangat menyenangkan bersepeda. mantap.

Great story. Never really made it click at the top of the sport. Always had it in terms of numbers, but didn’t have the tech or top end speed. Could still come off the couch and beat everyone American mountain biker.

I met Howard grotts once

Amazing 👌👌🤝

subtitles please

Howie it’s great to see you in action again. A top man

Nice commercial for the new Diverge. Geez, guys, do these riders know that they’re characters in an advertisement campaign? 😐

I ride with him!!! Super cool that he’s got to be featured for his accomplishments

dude, im obssessed with specialized bikes. if they sent me one, ill go nuts

What a goddamn heartthrob!

Hi, I have been riding mtb enduro bikes for the last 14 years now. I have bought bikes from different manufacturers (Trek, Santa Cruz, YT). My latest purchase is the Specialized e-mtb Turbo Comp with an aluminum frame. First, the bike's quality/price ratio is probably one of the worst -if not the worst- in the market today... a very high price for the bike's poor-quality components. Secondly, their customer support is "WORTHLESS" -it looks like people there are trained to reject claims! I say this because their answers show poor thought answers! Some of the problems with my bike: 1) I had to change the original front and rear tires after a few rides... The tubeless tire sealants were licking all over. 2) Within a year, the rear wheel hub collapsed... I had to buy a new one. 3) The latest one is that the whole frame shows a severe corrosion problem. It is growing all over it at an incredible speed. MY HUMBLE ADVICE... Run away from Specialized bikes. There are many good bikes out there with better customer support services!

@specialized Bicycles - just couldn't help yourself could you? First 11:30min was great. Saw some Spech bikes but it was cool cuz you didn't ram them down anyone's throat. From 11:30 forward, huge miss. You need to get some new marketing folks that understand the art of subtlety. Just gross. Do better.

Great timing for a distraction from laying off 8% of the workforce and abandoning many of your influencers in the community. Probably a great bike though.

Short and sweet. The dude needs a wife though;life is boring on your own and with a cold bed
