Bike Shaped Objects

Добавлен 15 окт 2018
Welcome to the channel! I'm a new mountain biker in the middle of Pennsylvania. Home base = Centre County to be exact. Follow along as I learn more about mountain biking, improve my skills, explore the local trails (and beyond), and overall just try not to be a Joey.
Fall Colors at Allegrippis
Quick rip through the leaves at Allegrippis. Sadly my GoPro froze and I lost a decent amount of footage from this one, but oh well. @TheBeatenPathJP may make a cameo as well. Make sure to check out his channel!

Harvest Moon at Harvest Fields - Night Riding
Просмотров 1182 года назад
Disclaimer - Please do not ride Harvest Fields at night. The trails close at dusk. We received special permission to use the trails for this ride. One of the last Rothrock Regulators Wednesday Night Lights rides of 2021. The trails at Harvest Fields were a great place to ride for those of us not too accustomed to night riding (like me). Had a great time with great people. Oh yeah, and the food ...
3 Years Later - Redemption Time!
Просмотров 953 года назад
It's been almost 3 years since I've ridden this trail. I may or may not have been putting it off, but there's just so much fun stuff to ride in our area that it wasn't near the top of my list. Couple that with the fact that I still have hardware in my finger and it took a while to get back here. Come along on the Tussey Mountain Extension Trail (AKA the Crapstension) as I see what it's like to ...

The Reason You Haven't Seen Me Much - Johnstown Inclined Plane Trails
Просмотров 5113 года назад
To my mom and my wife - don't watch this video. Best described as "like a janky bike park". We took some runs at the Inclined Plane Trails in Johnstown. It's a really cool concept and some really interesting trails. Trust me when I say the GoPro Effect is real on these. It does no justice to how steep these trails get.

Ski Day With My Son

Spent the day skiing at Ski Sawmill in Morris, PA with my son. We had such a blast and he's definitely a RUclipsr in the making.

Riding A New (To Me) Trail At Allegrippis
Просмотров 2563 года назад
Took a loop on the trails between the skills park laps you saw in the last video. Rode some of my favorites (Osprey and Hydro Loop) and rode one I had never ridden before. The weirdly named Sleek Dog. Really, it wasn't my favorite and there are other trails at Allegrippis that I like a lot better. Make sure to Like and Subscribe!

Learning To Ride Drops at Allegrippis Skills Park

Another one from back in warmer weather. Took the Jeffsy and checked out the Skills Park at the Allegrippis trails near Lake Raystown, PA. The progression of the different lines leaves a little to be desired, but overall it's a great little facility at an awesome trail system. Highly recommended. Make sure to Like and Subscribe!

My First Trip To A Bike Park - Blue Mountain, PA
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.3 года назад
Spent a beautiful October day at Blue Mountain Bike Park in Palmerton, PA. Due to COVID-19, the experience was probably a bit different than usual, but I still had a blast. Unfortunately due to long, slow lift lines (and the length of time it took to get used to riding a downhill park), I didn't get a ton of runs in. But that just means I'll have lots more to explore on my next trip back. Make ...
Shakedown Street - Full Trail - Blue Mountain Bike Park
Просмотров 1,2 тыс.4 года назад
Ride-along video of the new green trail at Blue Mountain in Palmerton, PA. It's called Shakedown Street and is about 3 miles of trail that winds its way down the mountain. There are a couple of pedal-y sections, but overall it's a nice wide cruiser where you can pick up some speed and get your bike under you before tackling some of the harder trails at Blue. It's a great addition to the park an...

Steamboat 2018 - Buddy's Run to Tornado Lane to Ego
This winter or winter 2023 I started snowboarding. And it's crazy to think how many trees have grown in three years
I haven't done a double black diamond in 30 years. I just started snowboarding 4 years ago. When you started out your run and you took that real deep breath....i was there with you. I still take that deep breath when I ski a blue. Good on you for pushing through it.
Compared to double diamonds further north in VT, NH & ME & in Upstate NY and double diamonds I've skied here out West (where I live now), Jericho and other double diamond trails in the Berkshires ARE MUCH easier speaking comparatively. Jericho is GREAT though!
Great ride! Do you have a map of it?
Man the GoPro may have been an idiot, but at least it caught the colors, very cinematic.
Yeah it was gorgeous out there. I think we timed it perfectly.
That is cool in the dark
Jackson is good for his age
I didn’t know you broke your finger. From Brynlee
Hey man, we all eat shit, I’m 15 years off of a bike, cause family and such. Now no lungs(smoked for that whole time), and now it’s get the body back to something functional. A while back I grabbed up a old hard tail 4x bike, tried doing tail taps , pulled a muscle in my left shoulder and didn’t have blood flow for like a week till that muscle deswelled… being old is fun, but to hell with it, gotta get back to it, for the mid life crisis lol.
It's not that hard.
Go to windham mt in New York, it’s got some double blacks that are a little more difficult than this but still easy enough for you I’m sure.
Wow. This is a great ride
Looks like an awesome loop
Nice! Good to see some new "Bike Shaped " content out on the interwebs!
It’s been over a year since I posted something 😳
what time of the year were you there? Im planning a March 6-12th trip somewhere but Im worried about conditions there since its such a lower elevation than most Colorado resorts.
I believe we were there the first week of March.
it could be a hit or miss... i went last march around the same time and we got 2ft the first night and plenty more during the week
DUDE YOU ROCK!!! Great Idea. Never thought of Kydex. I just got a New Luna X2 Ludicrous V2, & It's sucha beautiful paintjob and i want to protect the down tube. I hate riding with mudguards or fenders, because they can hit my leg, unless I run a small front mudguard. I Was thinking about a completely different way, that I got from an item made for dogs, Material is easy to work with so I am going to talk to a the person who can assemble it, buy the materials have her custom make me a downtube protector out of it. I love inventing, or coming up with new ways to solve existing problems. I think this is genius.
Love that trail
Hell yea way too go dude
Nice trail! I hope to ride it this spring.
I went down this trail once and I’m going this weekend I’m gonna grind it
stop gatekeeping
"Lap 3... feeling a little more confident on the bike" Well so much for that Although when you were rescuing your bike, the steepness of the hill was definitely more evident
Nice run on that cover. Jericho's specs match up fine with a lot of good stuff up north.
I live on the other side of this undisclosed location...there's a trail called sweetness that I'll have to show you guys some time
For sure. Love this spot.
Those look great. Too bad they can’t be made without their name on them as I’d like to resell them. That’s my only reservation.
When I was super young like 5 my instructor accident,y took me and my group down this.
Great redemption video!
Crash looks intense. Glad you’re back riding and doing better.
How do i get one of those shirts!!! Lol Im a newbie...i want try downhill nice place. Nice video!
Sweeeeet
glad i found your channel, you definitely make quality mtb videos
Thanks! Now I just need to improve my riding more. Hoping to get back to Blue soon.
The "un named trail" is called rainbow road.
Awesome thanks! I was just going by what is on Trailforks since I couldn’t find another trail map of the area.
As stated the un named trail is Rainbow Rd. There is also a new extension to that trail named The Rolling Mill. It just opened a few days ago.
The new extension to rainbow road is just a extension of the rainbow road trail. When we where building it, it was called rainbow road part 2. Also trail forks is not the best to go off for those trail. Plus don't let your otb keep you away from the trails. I broke my one knuckle on " don't go right" Lots of things planned for that hill side. If you come back let me know I can show you around. Only difference is this year and next the incline is down for maintenance, but their is going to be a shuttle service(weekend only) for the trail.
im confused . you say its your first time in a bike park, but you than later mentioned (that used to be an easy trail) so which is it. sorry for calling out but im new to mob and and im trying out blue this year for my first time.
Hey there. Good question. It was my first time in a bike park. I just know that Boulevard used to be the easiest trail from looking at past trail maps. It used to be listed as the only green trail on the mountain. Once they built Shakedown Street (which just opened in 2020 I believe) that was designated as a green and Boulevard was upgraded to a blue (as it should be IMO).
@@BikeShapedObjects ok I got it now.well keep up the good work
Hi, very beautiful scene! My son really likes riding bike but without any mountain biking experience on the real mountain road like this. May I know is the activity suitable for 10 years old kid? Thanks!
It all depends where you ride. Most of the trails in this video (other than Shakedown Street) wouldn’t be appropriate for a beginner. I’d suggest trying to find a local mountain bike association or club where you live to get some guidance on good local trails for beginners. It’s an awesome activity to get into!
Nice riding! And who is this music or song
Thanks! I use MusicBed for all my music (link in description). The songs in this video were by a group called The Siege and are called “Ctrl+Alt+Del” and “I Am Defiant”.
About how many runs down the mountain do you get in a day??
It was really busy the day we were there so I think we only got about 5 laps.
Nice progression!
Great review, thanks.
lookin good!
Which bike computer is that?
It's a Garmin Edge 530. I really like it.
I love this loop. Rays Revenge is a must though.
what is the offset of that chainring? i plan to change mine also sram nx crank.
I don't remember off the top of my head, but if you message them, they'll link you to the exact ring you need.
I’m with you. I ride my Bronson on all but the absolutely gnarliest and steepest of downhill double blacks. I’d rather have a bike I know like my own body even if it has a little less travel is isn’t quite as slack than a dh rig I don’t know or, worse yet, am not comfortable with. See you out there maybe this year. 🤘🤙
I’m a kid I’ve done it without falling
Ugh! Oval chainrings. AGAIN. They sucked the first time around. Can’t spin right. Maybe they’ll be ok for people who don’t care about climbing or spinning on the flats. 🤷♂️. I hated them.
Don't downplay - good for you!
Nice. At Whistler this would be no higher than a blue (Note- I barely could do a Black diamond there!). Just goes to show you how relative difficulties are.
Nah Jericho is far steeper than one would think. The lower half is actually comparable to some of the middle tier blacks over in mountains like Tremblant and Breckinridge. It can actually get pretty difficult at times if there’s a ton of moguls or powder. Regardless, it’s a super fun trail and I’m definitely gonna be doing it again on my next trip to Jiminy.
It’s steeper than it looks in the video but it is a very mellow diamond
What was the name of the trail at 5:30
What is the name of the trail that you were on at 5:30
It's unofficially known as Benlandia.
@@BikeShapedObjects okay, what corner of scotia is it located in?
@@liamjones1250 Not sure I’m cool with blowing up a secret spot on RUclips but I’d be happy to show you around if you’re local. Look up Rothrock Regulators on Facebook.
Well I broke my jaw on wild turkey when that happened I was 8 years old
