Mountain Biking with a CHAINSAW! Clearing out the WOW trail after a crazy windstorm. 

I’m not sure how many more awesome things you can cram into one video, Eric!

You complimented your kids more times in this one video than my parents did in my whole life. 10/10 parenting!

In Tennessee, I pick up trash thrown on my farm all the time. When we took a trip out west, I not only didn’t see one piece of trash, I ran into a guy on a motorcycle with a chainsaw clearing a public trail for others. Love that mentality!

Eric, you rock. I spent a few days cleaning up trees after the storm also, not on trails though.

I applaud you Eric, this guy is biking with a 50 pound chainsaw on his birthday to help clear fallen trees, happy birthday!!

Totally awesome!! I like that you’re teaching your boys to take care of their trails!!!!

Another awesome video being a great dad and showing your kids how great it is to help the community out. Happy birthday!!

“It actually matches my bike that’s pretty sick” Eric porter 2020 happy birthday man! It matches so I guess it his kinda handy dandy to just keep a chainsaw on you. Soon enough someone is gonna invent a pocket chainsaw for u!

Thank you for helping maintain the trails! I LOVE the WOW trail and can't wait to ride it again.

Just found this while looking for chainsaw trail clearing vids. Nicely done Dad. I've cleared trail with chainsaw too. It's a great feeling knowing you likely saved someone from getting hurt. Thanks for vid.

When I saw the title I thought you had lost your mind 😂

Thanks Eric, you're an awesome trail ambassador .

Well happy birthday and great work on those trails

Thanks Eric. Much appreciation for all that hard work. Your family is rad too. Such great attitudes. That storm was insane!

The world needs more people like you

At least no one is forgetting their name when they're riding with Eric. :)

Another great video, love how yours have family, and mtb combined.

I love seeing you teach your kids to maintain trails! Where I live, there are very few people volunteering to help and most of them are older guys. Great seeing that there will be younger ones to keep it going.

Happy Birthday, it's amazing to see you doing good stuff for your local community

Thanks for your hard work. Your kids are very well mannered, you're raising them well! I rode this trail for the first time a few days ago and love it! It's too bad the fallen trees couldn't be used for optional skinnys/logrides but I understand that's not what WOW is for.

The vibe of your videos is awesome!! Everything is chill, fun, there's stuff to learn, and the scenery is super. I think I'd love this any time but in 2020, it heals my soul. Have fun, Porters!

Thank you for your service! That's hard work and a heavy load. My kids IMMEDIATELY wanted to ride the Wow trail. We happen to be in Midway later this week and plan to ride it on Thursday, to check out your handiwork. :)

Happy Belated Birthday! I am glad everyone is safe. Keep up the great work on and off the trail.

Awesome. The Wow trail is one of the best in the Wasatch! Thank you for doing some good and showing an awesome example!

Awesome video! Thanks for helping maintain trails.

Eric my boys and I love watching your videos. They look forward to them every week. Thanks for the great example as a dad and trail steward.

Thanks for taking the time to say hello to my son and I yesterday. That’s one thing I like about your videos. You include your kids. Keep up the good work!

Happy birthday Eric! I rode the Wow last week and did what I could, but it wasn’t much without a chainsaw. Thanks for all your work on the trail, and the fun videos. Hope the rain yesterday helped the trails. John

wow!! it was really fun and inspiring to watch you guys....!! thanks Eric for sharing this man....!

Thanks for doing that clean-up! We tried to stay behind you, but those trees kept you from being ahead of us! It was a lot of "hike a bike." Heading out again tomorrow to admire your handiwork!

oh.. those locals were stoked when they saw the chain saw sticking out of your pack.. rad.

You got me in to biking and I got 14 place in my state on my first race. Thank you.

So great to see you teaching your kids how to give back and spend quality time with them also. don't know why there are haters on the channel but keep up the great work in riding and raising boys! I have 2 grown up of my own that I get to still ride with.

Been watching your videos for a while. I really like how great a dad your are ! ! ! ! ! Rock on!

I hope lots of people see this and use it as examples of how to be a responsible rider and dad you are a great example safety first!

Very cool that you help clearing up the trails!

Excellent video Eric very thoughtful for you to repair trails on your birthday happy birthday and thank you

Thanks so much! The WoW trail is awesome, I hadnt ridden it since the windstorm so I had no idea there were so many trees down.

another great video, great work getting out and helping clear all the trails with the family.

Another sick video once again eric! Good to see your exposing your kids to trail-building and the outdoors nice and early on!

Some parts of the trail are pretty beat up with brake check bumps, and I think you’re right, not much we can do till we get more rain. But right now with the colors going off and your work, still I think the best trail we have in the area. I loved all the pine needles on the trail, it felt like some sort of Christmas ride. Take care, John

Thanks for the chain saw run down. Used my electric one for months not know bar oil existed, it’s helpful stuff.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY and thx for clearing up the trails nice bit of community work 🤩🤩

Happy birthday Eric. Hope you have a nice day with your family 🤙🍰🎂

Skills. ..trail maintenance and tree clearing is hard work. Kudos.

Road this trail today. Thanks for all your work!

Wow is one of my favorite trails in Utah. Thanks for cleaning it up!

This is like the ultimate birthday, just to finish the day with a beer. 👌

This video was nice to everyone helping each other out 👍

Eric on his birthday: what should I do today - I know i'll go biking with a 50lbs chainsaw, that will be fun! Great video eric!

Love your videos I wish my dad was like you thank you for uploading great content

This is the best family on RU-vid u guys are the most happy people

Thank you......and happy birthday. Be safe man.

Hey dude! I’m sorry I’m a bit late to say happy birthday but hopefully u had a great one! I’ve been loving your videos and your the one who inspired me to build and ride dirt jumps. One day I wish I could come see u but I’m in Australia :( but that doesn’t stop me from loving ur videos. I hope your kids grow up to be like you and I hope ur jumps are staying up great. Big fan- oli

ah man love the wow trail will for sure have to check out your work on it

Love the way u give back to your community, have fun stay safe 👍

Thanks for the hard work🙌🏼🙌🏼

Great to see riders doing their part, great video!

Glad to see your kids riding a hardtail. I think it’s best to grow up on a hardtail until late high school because it makes you a better rider and forces you to pick better lines

Yay! 100 thousand subs! Congrats! 🎉 Love the channel. You’ve inspired me to make my channel!

Happy birthday! Love to see you put working on the trails

We hit this trail on a 2020 West trip from PA y'all's so blessed to have so many epic trails in UTAH

dude! thanks for clearing the trails!

Thanks for clearing out that trail Eric! That is so cool. Also happy b day

Going to ride this trail today thanks a ton your a legend

Awesome! I will occasional throw a dewalt recip saw in my trail pack if I think there may be some stuff that needs cutting out, but I have yet to work all the way up to the full chainsaw. Well done!

Happy birthday Eric! Love you Seth and Alex’s channels

Really cool that trail has a lot of variety!!

Fantastic work there keeping trails open... Think that bar tho has seen better days 😉

Milo has got a go pro on his helmet. Finally! 🎉

Pretty cool, man. Showing the kids that their efforts benefit everyone. Some side line jumps would be a fun addition to that trail. :) The same for some features. Something progressive to learn on.

Wow I’m jealous hope that can be soon and ride with my boy. Awesome vid

I love it how u don’t care how big the tree is and I love all your amazing videos on the back yard jumps and my favourite one is the water slide it would mean the world to me if u gave me a shout out in one of your back yard trail vid because I love kickers and cruising threw pump track thx so much for the content and keep it up

Awesome video and happy birthday!!!!

Man. Eric is such a great guy.

Hey Eric love your vids I reckon your one of the best youtubers out ther you deserve way more have a good day anyway!

Happy birthday from Australia mate . Strength to you and your amazing family 🤘.

Awesome video and happy birthday whenever you filmed it!

Your kids have a GREAT attitude.

You're the best, dude. Happy Birthday! Your sons are going to be such good fathers.

Great work!! Look into the Stihl 170 or 180. I have a 311 Stihl but i find it heavy for smaller jobs, so i got a little 170 with a 14" bar. It probably weights 8 lbs with fuel and oil and packs in nicely since it's so short.

We lost a tree in our local trail system about a month and a half ago I live in this small town where the little jump trail is all we have and it’s not like we have anything to ride it’s a double two pump roller into a burm that you couldn’t ride before and then it loops back to the start

Lets try to get Eric to 100K before 2021. his content is amazing

Hey Eric! The wind storm effected me as well, we were actually going to head up to Logan but our peach tree fell over!

Ur birthday, but ur giving the trail users a present...clear trail. 🤘👏👏👏👏👏 Happy birthday!

Impressive how many trails are out there!

Great video awesome to see you guys give back to the community and your love for the sport mate keep up the great work. 👍🇦🇺🤓

Nice I hope you enjoyed the ride

I live in New Hampshire, and love riding singletrack and the bike park. If you’re ever up up here, i’d love to ride with you and Milo and Owen!

Happy birthday Eric Have a good one!

That was awesome man mountain biking is my favorite too😁✌✌😍😍😍

Nice work. I just cleared a trail yesterday.

Good work men!

That storm was crazy!

All right, had to give a Thumbs Up before even watching the video - props to you and your family. Thought I was the only one who went out and did trail work on their birthday, no chainsaw though, just hand saw and cutlass. :-D

Happy Birthday Porter! Great video and cool concept by the way! Definitely a lot different than other RU-vidrs and I love it

Milo and owen cam are the best

Keep up the good work dude

We need someone like you at my local trails

Happy Birthday Eric!!!
