Kenan is a legend! I had no idea he was catching shade for innovating back in the day. I guess nobody ever made their mark on the world by taking the safe route!

Hi Seth, you will probably not see this but thank you for getting me into mountain biking I now go riding every day and look forward to watching your videos. I recently went to my first mtb park and even though I only rode blues and green trails I had a ton of fun. Thanks again for getting me into the sport

Fellow Utahn when I heard on his channel he was heading out this way I got stoked so good seeing him on the bike.

@mtnmyke 3 года назад

That got heavy near the end. It's so awesome to see the love of mountain biking grow inside people. Yet, watching someone who once had it, lost it, and come back to it so many years later remembering what it's really all about - has a way of setting you straight on what's really important.

@PorterMTB 3 года назад

Riding bikes is life changing, for the better, that's for sure!

@JinuAshraf 3 года назад

You can almost see tears in Kenan's eyes after finishing up his ride. That show's how genuine his words were.

@PorterMTB 3 года назад

Yeah it was really cool to see, that was an awesome moment.

@jeffreybethers1984 3 года назад

Wow! I love this dude! I remember heading down to California from Utah when I was 16 (Circa 2001) to watch my brother ride in a Pro BMX contest. When I saw Kenan ride in that comp I was baffled at the tricks he was pulling! First time I ever saw anyone pull a backflip 360. Not only was he a super badass rider he was also so nice and genuine to everyone around him. Glad to see him shredding once again!

@PorterMTB 3 года назад

Yeah he's unreal on the bike, he's still got it!

@patrickkerr329 3 года назад

Kenan is definitely having some fun on his road trip. It’s cool to see him having fun on the bike again. I remember watching him back in the day and then found his RU-vid channel years ago and I’ve been following his reptile channel ever since. I’m 38 and this makes me want to get a skateboard and see what my body can get away with.

@PorterMTB 3 года назад

Definitely get back on the skateboard, easier now than 10 years from now!

@cyndilanders1409 3 года назад

I came over from Kenan’s channel to see him ride. I knew he had a previous life on a bike, but I know him as Kamp Kenan, the tortoise and other kinds of reptiles guy! Very cool to see this other side of him and to see him having so much fun. He seems to work so hard at keeping his animals, it’s nice to see him enjoying some leisure time.

@flush240sx6 3 года назад

Dude I'm literally just smiling while watching this, im like a fan girl right now. Watching Kenan riding like the old days, I wish he would also built a bmx track in his yard too. Man thanks for the video, this is gold. *my precious*

@trailmonster 3 года назад

You could see just the pure happiness in Kenan, just being back on a bike and shredding again. Good on you Eric for helping him reignite his passion for riding. Don't see how he wouldn't want to start riding again (in some form) after seeing how much joy it gives him.

@jimothyMTB 3 года назад

That was awesome, giving him back that passion that he used to have. He was smiling like a little boy. So cool!

@streetrider11 3 года назад

This got me so hyped, getting older into my 20s and developing other interests outside of riding it gets hard some times knowing I'm not riding at the level I used to. But seeing stuff like this always gets me so hyped to get back on the bike. It's just about riding for the love of riding and having fun with your friends. Gotta say he still has a better table than me lmao, pure style.

Watch Paul the punters vid with Tracy Hannah. You can't help but smile at seeing a world champion mountain biker get outright STOKED at a punter having a good run on a downhill trail. Just cool to see people make each other happy, or just being happy for each other.

@rcranes2227 3 года назад

I'm 44, and I'm getting on the pump tracks now with my kids. My big problem is I never did BMX or anything else when young, and I don't think I have the skills to recognize when to bail or even how to bail on gap jumps. I'll leave the super gnarly stuff for the kids I guess, but the pump track is great fun and skill building so I can keep up with them for a few more years before they leave me in the dust!
