I did three rides in a day and somehow didn't die 

The idea of eating a burrito then going on a mountain bike ride makes me extremely anxious.

NY Trails are super sweet looking! The mountain views like at 10:07 are one of the absolute BEST things about riding to me. Great vid Brian!! Thanks for sharing it.

Super cool! It always amazes me how many great trail systems that are out there and all maintained by volunteers.

Those trails had a lot of attention to detail, looked like a lot of fun. Have a great week and be safe.

Man you make the climbing sections look super easy! Makes me want to improve on mine.

It was nice meeting you! Hope you enjoyed what our area has to offer! The videos and commentary are stellar, keep up the good work and we'll see you next time you are in the 'Dacks. P.S. We will have to explore the trail networks you missed next time...

You sum it up perfectly: great spot for vacation with the family. And: great community effort. That's more then remarkable. This should be a sample for more communities and projects.

It would be cool if you could make a video on the gear you bring on a trip for recording and stuff! I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!

Should've gone up Ante Up and down All In! All in is chunky and awesome goin down! Ante Up is nice and smooth so it makes an okay climber

Another awesome video! Good point as well about stitching together smaller rides. This area is perfect for that. You can do epic, high mileage rides, or your can break it up into half day excursions.

Man I wish it was 72 in Cali everyday, more like 100. Love the Vids!!

Nice tour of the trails up there, thanks for bringing us along!

NY is more than the city, and it's beautiful!

NY has some great biking, you should come to VT sometime; Slate Valley Trails, Kingdom Trails, Perry Hill, Millstone etc. Thanks for the great content as usual.

17:35 Actually, my 72-y-o father said mumbly peg is when you take a pocket knife and drop it to the ground with your foot out. The kid who gets it closest to his foot without pulling away is the winner. He used to play it in elementary school back when they didn't care if you brought knives to school. He said he would always win because he would drop it into his foot.

I think I’m addicted to watching BKXC

Well done capturing the beauty of that area and how fun that all looks!

Making the trek from Toronto to the Daks tomorrow. I couldn't decide betwern Maine and NY but these videos helped me pick!

Some sweet looking trails there Brian thanks for sharing

Kudos, for riding both directions...

I always wanted to have my own mountain bike im so inspired by your vids i watch it always

Wow! Beast mode! Nice climbing on some crazy terrain. Thanks for taking me along on my lunch hour!

What a bloody fender bender Brian!

Birch beer is kinda like root beer and pretty popular in the northeast.

Watch out for those Mosquitos! Killer there.

That “mumbly peg” game does for sure exist.

Nice to see your in NY! I rode these back in July. Good luck is an awesome trail.

1:18 I totally noticed you doing that in a previous video! You were talking about being reminded of loading bikes into the back of your ride but back then it was two so one should be easy.

You make me want to be a better climber. That section on Good Luck clockwise was insane, I bet JKW would struggle with that.

Great video as usual, Brian ! Can't wait to see what comes next.

I rode the Hardy Road trails a couple months ago. Good Luck counter-clockwise is super tough! I put a foot down way more than you did. I also saw a huge bobcat on Ante Up!

really nice trails. the isolation scares me. here in south africa cape town its not recommended to cycle alone. stabbing and mugging is a daily thing. so when i watch u cycle alone i have a knot in my gut. very few places were we can ride alone. Thanks for the adventure!!

"I got an acorn stuck in there!" That made my whole day.

From Brazil...Thanks for another video...

It's hard to choose between having a burrito or chewing one of these barks.. yummy!

"Ahh man, his mudguard" I said to my fiance during your last video! Happened to me with a marsh guard, heat it up and it should find it's form again.

If you're still up there. Make sure to go to Smoke Signals on the main strip in Placid for some great BBQ

Nice to see someone making some videos in the Northeast!!!

I so miss being in Lake Placid. I walked thru those ice rinks and took a lot of pics. You should check out Mirror Lake, small but cool. They have dog sled rides in the Winter and people like to scuba dive in the lake in the Summer.

Great video, as usual! Those trails looked like a lot of fun, and especially the use of the rocks. The tech climb you made was impressive! I have an idea for you for jumping, because I've been EXACTLY where you are. I've seen you J hop and American bunny hop back in the video with Seth and Sampler, and you're pretty good at it. Find a little double like that one at the 21:58 mark...that's PERFECT. Hit it over and over, using the J hop where you compress the suspension into the face, use your weight to pull back on the bars (don't PULL UP), and then transition your weight forward to pull the rear of the bike up in the air to match it the front. ALL you are doing is...learning to USE the face and allowing it to launch you into the air under control, instead of "absorbing" it with your arms and legs. You're developing a FEELING of using the suspention and body position to launch the bike into the air. START on a little double like that, where if you case it...no big deal. That will FORCE you to learn to use the rebound of the bike off the face and lip, and ultimately you will see that you are in MORE control than trying to stay low and absorb the lip. I did EXACTLY what you are doing for years, until I finally got the feeling of "popping" off the lips, instead of trying to stay back and low, and absorbing them. That will NEVER work, unless you are racing and trying to squash the jumps to stay low. You'll never clear anything at "trail speed" if you don't learn how to pop off the lips. As you progress, it's not a J hop...it's just a compression of the suspension, and straightening of the legs as it rebounds. BUT to LEARN IT, you need to force yourself to launch the bike using a J hop. Once you get the feeling, then you can move to bigger jumps and tone down the J hop to just a quick pre-load and "pop" off the lip. That's how I got over that innate feeling of wanting to absorb everything, and stay low in my "safe zone." Ultimately...I came to realize that it's actually a MUCH more dangerous position, because it's easier to get bucked when you're too far back over the rear axle, and not more over the bottom bracket. That Ripmo WANTS to jump. It's such a good composed jumping bike. I just think you've got to move out of that comfort zone, and I know for me, forcing myself to clear little doubles like that, taught me how to actually "jump" the bike, and not just be along for the ride.

No rest allowed no foot down allowed the last ver very important no catching breath allowed hahaha...we love you bro!

I commend you for your understanding of family time. Bite size is fun size. Congratulations on 300k subs.

Nice job climbing those rocks @11:30! Niiiice

Can't believe you made that climb at 11:16. Hella good job.

We had Birch syrup on pancakes whilst in Alaska! Apparently it’s far more expensive than Maple syrup due to availability. All I know is it was YUM!

Don't worry your doing great on the jumps and still improving.

These look so cool. I’m feeling a North American road trip 👍

Great trails and great vid Brian.

Love the videos man. You have inspired me to get into riding and to keep improving. Keep up the great work!!

I totally noticed you putting your bike in the car onto your mudguard, thinking "wtf is he doing..."

Super nice hat Brian 👍🏼 my fav colour too 😬

Out here in TN we have that trail label problem too. At a place called warriors path the blue trail is actually a lot harder than the black ones, confused the hell outta me lol.

Some of the old TB sanitarium properties lend them selves to mountain biking or cyclocross such at the facility in south west Louisville

now you know... black diamond on the east coast isn't the same as a black diamond in CA. Great video! Great to see you around my stomping grounds.

I ride to my trails in Austrian summer heat and it is only a 30 minute ride but I don’t get to go often because of school and seeing my dad every second weekend so I do everything in one day that’s like 30 trails in one day it is insane and I can get out of bed the next day.

Good ride 💪😎

1:28 "I can feel heat coming in the air today" ;-p ;-p ;-p (Phil Collins)

Hi Brian Amazing video as always. By the way, who is the beautiful baby who shows up on the phone at 7:08? A hug.

Please come to Toronto for a day or two. We don't have much elevation here, but the quality of trails that are only 10KM from the downtown core is incredible and like nowhere else in the world. Most of our best trails are mapped on Trailforks. I highly recommend Sanitation Plant, The Ridge, Topo, Catalyst, Party Atmosphere, Climbmax, G-Spot, Roller Flowster, Foreplay, Bunny Run, Dirt Farm, Bunny Poop, Motown, Dr. Quads and Fruitloop. This may sound like a long list, but many of these trails are quite short and this entire list could be easily done in 2 days. Contact Sweet Pete's bike shop if you're looking for a guide. Toronto would be a great place for you to stop on your way to Quebec.

Dang...you are a strong climber!

Lake Saranac sampler pack!! Tasty!

Super parcours 👍🤘😉

That’s a lot of riding buddy!

I’ll be in the ADKs for my 35th birthday and looking to do a big ride. Which area did you like the best?

that was the first thing I noticed when you out your bike in your car

At 11:18 i was like Go Brian! Go Brian Go!!!! Yeahhhhhh!!!!!!

Impressive riding, great trails, i will make the trip across one day for a taste of epicness :)

Great trails...

Come to the capital region of NY. So much good biking.

Ohhhhh @11:14 must have felt sooooo good...Awesome!

I started riding last yr after a 20+yr break, I drove down from Rainier Wa to Fresno Ca. but on the way stopped by the Golden Gate Bridge, I saw one of videos you shot, there, so I thought way not ride the bridge, there and back, i'm still an FNG (F$%^en New Guy) but I'm a bit on the older side, but it was fun, I still need to work on my cardio. But at least o can say I rode the bridge

Good ride!!

Nice ride man❤️

299K subs!!, soon crossing the 300k mark!!

Looks like fun.

Looks awesome Brian! Quick question, if you were to rate the BMC at 100/100 for climbing, what would you rate the Ripmo?

Just wanted to say thanks for the inspiration. If it wasn't for your channel I wouldn't be going to Spain with basque mtb this weekend. Keep it going! Also any tips for Spain?

Great video brian

Only strava will tell the truth 😄🤙well done Brian

Is this gopro medium view? And are you using a gimble it's so stable?! Also great footage. How do you select what clips to use in the video?

Your 29er just eats up climbs. Of course I know it’s you the Mt Goat but 29 seems like the way to go.

Do you have a link for those hand up gloves? I looked on the site and couldnt find them. Those look awesome.

What do you mean "you people " 🤣 nice sick video bro 🤘🚵‍♂️💯

Rock drop nice

How wide are your handlebars? I feel that my TrekXCaliber7 has to wide of bars.

Thanks for the vid. I kinda schedule my night around watching it. Serviced my wife, then came downstairs to enjoy the vid. TMI?

Ride at Elm Ridge/ Windham

And here I am thinking that two rides in two days was tiring!

Fourth! Nice ride Brian!

Bkxc come check out the trails in western ny/ p.a.

You should have been in town for the MTB festival they have over labor day weekend. From the sounds of it you just missed it. It's all of the experience you are talking about x10. I am surprised the locals about the bonfire during the festival.

I have a hard tail bike and I really want to start mountain biking I’m upgrading the rims, tyres and proberly brakes but there ok tbh , what would you suggest to start out for down hill biking ? Like tips to not crash 😂😂🔥

300K subs coming up!

Your Almost at three hundred thousand subs!!

That bark you tasted actually has natural aspirin in it.

my aunt owns a cabin up there the lake is really nice

Told you, about the mudgard

Ayye I live like 2 hours away the ADK is great

Hey bkxc can you do a pitfalls of being a new RU-vidr, I’m just getting started & love your content always super inspirational 🤙🏻 cheers dude

Has anyone figured out how to keep Ergon bar plugs in???? ive tried the duct tape thing with poor results
