Still alive?
Great video!
Looks like a ton of fun :)
Very nice. Good to hear from you again.
Harry life definitely has its winters, thanks for being such great support . 👍🏾
I was getting worried. Good to hear from you again. Stay safe and stay strong. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Thanks Harry! Be well!
STOKED AS EVER to see you back posting away!
Thank you Cory. Appreciate it😎 👊🏾
Where is it ?
Connecticut. If you're in the area check bike reg website
Seems like forever since the last vid Sam. Time to ride🤘🏼
Yeah, a "long winter" for the channel, heck yeah time to ride.
Thanks for this, I raced there yesterday for the first time and it was good to see what the course looks like! I used the B-line over the boulders tho...
Getting home safe is the best way to end a ride, for sure!
Thanks boys . going to ride there for sure. hope you all are healthy and shredding
Hey @mtbzenmaster, i’m thinking of doing this race this year. It’s hard to see to fine details of the terrain, but do you think it’s possible to ride it with a fully rigid (no suspension) bike with 650b 2.8 inch tires? Thanks!
The terrain is a relatively smooth cross country course, if you okay with pumping over occasional roots. It depends on your fitness and skill level. I could ride it full rigid. Send it bro! :-)
Also, depending on the device your watching the video on, you can go to video settings Quality and increase the resolution to get a better clarity
Thanks so much for your reply!@@MTBZenMaster
By the way. Cat 1 = Advance/Pro Cat 2= intermediate Cat 3= Novice.
I wanna check this out this season!!! Thanks for the vid!
You should! Its awesome riding
I just got the same gloves you're wearing. Haven't ridden Arrowhead yet but I took a look a few weeks ago. Yeah the expert stuff is pretty legit
Heck yeah those are legit, a little intense, and fun trails. I gotta get back there
Met the MTB Zen Master at the Kingdom last fall while riding with my son. His videos are as spot on as his ever present smile. He has made lots of good tips for good places to ride! Thank you!
Bolton Valley has some steeper trails. Come check them out when the rain calms down for a day or two.
Really? Those Arrowhead trails are so vertical. Not sure i can handle anything steeper. Whats the names of the locations? 🙂
Love the story!! Not sure if I'm going to have the cardio for it this year but maybe!
Hey. How you doing. Looking for some videos. You getting out? Hope your well.
I live in Torrington ct jus started riding enjoyed the video
Can’t wait to race again in 2023!
how do you get the map and time and mph and all of that? what device do you use?
Those are nice trails. Have yet to find those at case. I’ll look for them. Love your channel. 👍
Love that place.
Thinking about doing the enduro for 2023. Blue Mountain is my local park been there Mountain Creek and Killington too. Can I use a DH for enduro. Like your videos.
Thanks! You could probably use a DH bike for Blue Mountain since they let us use lifts, but most of the other races you have to climb on the transition up. Go ride some laps an glen park to test if you'd like 5/6 climbs. oh and check the rules on the eastern states cup website.
What kinda of bike speedometer/computer do you use? Pros & cons of it. Thanks.
Im currently use a wahoo bolt. And Or stava
I love how you blended the 2 rides together, impressive
What month were u riding this?
I think that was May 2019
Nice job. That's a lot of rocks.
great job .I do cross country , hate doing drops like that.
Thanks Steve!
Great video. I didn't know it was pronounced Kohls. I hope to run into you out there Brother. I'm there at least twice a week.
I’ve got to get up there before the snow flies
Yes, place is awesome riding
We met at Glen Park. My son,. Nate who you also met at Glen Park needs to show you Ledges at Nepaug. If you don't want to die, I can show you Mangler, the funnest trail there.
I think I would have a hard time with those steep sections. You did great.
Looks awesome I might go this weekend
Go pro doesn't do it justice. Wow 😳
I appreciate your impressive work trying to capture what these trails are like.
Thank you. I do aim to show off the trail for others to consider enjoying. Thats for the specific feedback. 👍🏾😎
Sugarloaf is far steeper but these are close
I hear you, isnt that lift access? Wasnt considering any lift access bike parks. I need to get up there to check it out but thats almost six hours from CT
Actually, if sugarloaf is steeper maybe i shouldn't. LoL Sounds sick! Your above my paygrade Dude.
@@MTBZenMaster yes and no for the race we had to bike up to stages 1 and 2 and the lift for 3-5
Nice Job Sam! That place looks crazy steep! you've gotten so much better! Awesome challenge!
When are you gonna go emtb? I’ve been riding a Turbo Levo for a year plus, makes uphill as much fun as downhill.
Paul! Honestly, i have been thinking about it. BUT im worried that if i get the emtb i wont ride anything else LOL. I planning to suffer a little more, when i get my weight goal maybe i will treat myself to one 👍🏾🤔😎
@@MTBZenMaster no question you’ll favor the emtb over mtb - I have. In past year, only a dozen non-ebike, while doing 150+ rides on the ebike. I also didn’t gain a pound - you can tailor the assist to the workout you want. And other than weather, there’s never an excuse to not ride (I rode 15 miles per day the last 7 days, would have been nearly 20 days except for last Wednesday rain) and I’m 64yrs old.
Absolutely love that place... worth every second of the up for those downs... New Hampshires finest.....
💯!! 👊🏾
Makes sense to do black trail first if that is your skill level. By the 3rd or 4th climb, a black trail would be harder when you're tired.
Yes, you are so right. Ii like to be less warn out before hitting the double blacks👍🏾
nice one! need to work on braking technique, cause you'll cook ehm done fast :) especially braking in the corners I'm newbie myself, and the steep stuff really helps to figure out good braking technique the cliff you rode is also a good example of control you learn while exploring you bike capabilities :)
Yes so tru. There is aways room for break technique progression. Feathering and modulation AND i should have change my rear pads they were warn from racing and contaminated. Problem fixed. And fresh rotor.
LOL 4:14 THAT's steep!
Ha! just a little steep.. probably better when the snow is on it. LOL
Yeah, GoPro doesn’t really tell the story there, does it? And I’m always wary of coaching from teenagers, but Aaron did a great job 👍
That Gopro Effect is a thing. Makes every feature flat and small. It doesn't tell the story there. I looked at a few times, so to sew him do it as slow as i would. Help! Its hard to know how much control youll have. Cheers!
That place looks sick! Great work. Good insight on what the trails look like.
Thanks Josué !
Nice. I was the kid that helped you with the rock roll
LOL. dude, of course, watch the intro. I put your channel name there! Show your Dad. You helped alot. thanks!
and Aaron, I always know its you because of THE DUCK! :-)
👍💯 Good stuff Bruh.
Yo thank you. Shout out to all the down south mountain bikers.
Inspiring video Sam, you may have have convinced me to enter the PBC Glen Park Enduro in 2 weeks!
Thanks Kevin! Glen Park is awesome racing. Ive done the Fall sender too. Great stuff. Go have fun!
Great video Sam, Thanks.
Wow sam. That was awesome. Thanks for sharing this with us. I wish I had something like that near me.
Thank you Harry.
Great work Sam! 👍
Thanks!
