Looks like you were taking full advantage of your North Carolina trip Joe! Those sections looked stupid fast and plenty slippery, great job with the video and staying upright
Bikes Trails and Greenways Thanks! I tried to. Had a crash in a rock garden the following day, but finished out the weekend. It’s fast but the trail wasn’t slippery. Pretty good grip.
It's very different. Most of Pisgah (that i've ridden) is dirt and roots. Most of DuPont (that i've ridden) is more like slick rock and dirt with some roots. The Stokesville ride on Wolf Ridge is pretty similar to the Crest. Minus the Rocky Mtn views and elevation. Both are outstanding. Though, i don't think there is a trail on the east coast that can give you the same amount of DH as the Crest can. I guess the bottom line is.... I like riding bikes. :D
@Mr Tonka Really awsome humid descent and nice kept up with Seth😜. I heard you complaining about fogging up your glasses. I've now ridden with some photochromic mtb glasses from a british company. The glasses are called Rad8 Mudhugger 504 and are about 115 USD. I've used them in all sorts of weather from cold to steaming hot 95 degree F. Hands down the BEST and cheapest eyeprotection i've ever used. Just as an inspiration 😉. BTW what's the verdict on your rear triancle on that Yeti?
Mr Tonka Glad to hear that you can get back out on your own bike - not much beat riding your own perfect dialed in rig 😏. Tho that descents on the Canyon looked quite funny. Mabey a more enduro style bike in the neae future? 😉😂. If so and looking at the european brands then Commencal and Bird MTB would be something.
This one isn't public yet. But i think it's linked to the Trailforks site already and since it's in a play list, it shows up for those poking around. Kind of weird. If Alex does a van video on Thursday, i'll make this one public. :)
