Добавлен 10 окт 2012
Just an avid mountain biker trying to help others get to ride more. I will be posting trails and some of my tinkering. I am based out of Southern California and ride primarily in Orange County and Big Bear. I try to post honest videos so you may see me walk over some sections or put a foot down when I shouldn't. Feel free to comment and I will try and film trails you wish to see. I used to film using a Go Pro Hero 5, but lost it when I hit a tree while snowboarding. My current bikes are a Trek Slash, Giant Trance X, and a Specialized Epic, and Canyon Trail Lux. A big thanks goes out to Velofix, O'Neal, Nezium, GoPro, Odi, and Nosek and Associates.

Mountain Biking a Laguna Beach Icon 5 years in the making
Просмотров 3,2 тыс.Месяц назад
Telonics is one of the best known mountain bike trails in Orange County. Names like Hans Rey and Aaron Gwin come to mind. For me it was a trail I wanted to ride clean and I finally did. Not everyone can ride Telonics. It drops in from the very top of Aliso Woods and ends up at Laguna Canyon. Telonics is rated as a black diamond to a double black diamond. The catch berms in the lower half really...

The Southwest Downhill Race Series concluded it's 4th and final race at Vail Lake with a new trail that did not disappoint. Unlike other races this one used the same course for all riders with no go arounds. It was soft and rocky and included a pedal section in the middle that made many riders opt for Enduro bikes. After the race awards were given to the top 3 and the series winner took home a ...
New Flow Trail at Vail Lake Spirals 2024 Mountain Biking

Spirals? Spiralis? It used be be no name trail but now it has a name but nobody is sure what it is. This flow jump trail will take time to master. It begins at the start gate that used to lead you to OGs. Most likely you will need an e bike to get enough laps to master it.

Maple Hill is a great place to mountain bike if you have a little time and a bigger ride is not an option. The climbs are gentle and there is nothing gnarly. There are several entrances around the high school and there are trail signs to help with navigation.

That's funny how you write on your bike while others keep their bikes like artwork
I figure it's going to get dirty and scratched anyway...
Thank you very very much!
You are very welcome. Since posting this ODI has come out with several new grips and a variety of diameters.
Congrats
ty :)
Nice racing. Cant wait until you got six months on an ebike. You will be flying DH.
It will take time...I'm still planning on sticking to my normal bikes as much as possible. The e-bike is like candy without the stomach ache
Good job. To me, it didn't appear as though the "e" was of much value since so much was downhill.
No it wasn't. I actually got beat on time by the guy I've been battling for the past two years. The motor did make the bottom section easier and much more enjoyable,
So are you an e-bike channel now?
I'm a channel to get you to ride mor! I don't plan on riding the e-bike much because I like the workout and the motor is just one more thing to worry about.
Great way to start off your e-bike career. Did getting that one practice lap make much of a difference?
No, but now I know there was plenty more battery. I would have benefitted from lapping Magna Flow and OG 2.0. There's a rock I should have popped on Magna and those jumps seemed doable....easier said than done
Thanks for watching. As always feel free to leave questions and comments for our MTB community. Also, please post comments about upcoming races. I feel a lot of riders do race because they are aware of the upcoming events.
It's weird not hearing you talk LOL
I don't always talk. I wanted to lay some music of the sunset ride part
How's the sun in your eyes?
That's a real problem in the winter. I often plan rides to avoid that.
It sure looks smooth, but there are a few spots you need to pay attention: Especially that last turn at the bottom
I'm a year into the ebike world and I like it best when leaving the bike in Eco mode for downhill. Gives me the closest feeling of an analog bike. Not burst of power as you described.
Thanks, I may try that
I recently got a Norco Fluid VLT, pretty much since I got it I never rode my Kona Process anymore and sold it recently. I am an older rider at 65, I find myself riding much longer and enjoying way more trails which I dreaded climbing before.
Great to hear there's a mountain bike life in when you are in your 60's
Welcome back. Awesome new toy you have there will have to get out and ride sometime soon.
Sounds like a plan
We only have power to 20mph. Downhill you will be going faster then 20.
Thanks for the comment. This is true for class 1. 20mph going up a trail is still pretty fast. I felt I needed my attention on the immediate trail and I was unable to be on the lookout for others.
Are you joining the dark side now?
I am trying to find a time and place. For now I want to use it to learn the trails at Vail.
Good times ahead. Get the suspension dialed in and it will jump and corner better than any analog bike.
Thanks, I've heard that about the suspension. It felt really good with just following the YT recommendations. I think it will take some time to figure out the cornering. Do you use an app to modify the motor's settings? I've heard that makes a big difference too
@ definitely makes a difference. I have my in the stock settings right now, I just had a new motor installed. Usually I have specific modes for certain tasks. Like I do all my climbing in the same mode, and I have the over-run set to the longest, But I don’t like that for downhill. I generally don’t ride mine in boost unless I’m on pavement or totally exhausted, often you loose traction and waste the power.
Welcome back! Where have you been hiding?
I'm still here, but I've been focusing on my day to day life and my job that pays the bills.
Thank you for watching. Please don't hesitate to leave tips and comments. I'm sure many will be useful for a lot of use and others won't be. It's all good. Ride Mor!
Great vid. Gotta get up there this summer.
Thanks, it's ridable right now
Been watching all your vids some of the best trail guides on RUclips, you’re highly underrated ! You should check out and do a vid at Palos Verde, Portuguese Bend trail !
Thank you for the compliment. I do need to head up north ( of Orange County ) Maybe this summer...
4:48 you made the right choice. Left would have been back door. You did telonics proper. So fun congrats 🍾
Thank you. I do need to check that out too. It's just such an ordeal to get in one lap.
Yoooooo that was sick awesome fun looking. I'm sure my legs will be fried at the bottom ha
It is such a fun one. I wish it were easier to lap. Remembering where the catch berms are would allow for a bit of recklessness
Such an incredible trail!
yes it is...too bad getting to it and back is such a pain
The Leaping Lizard DH was my first ever DH race back in the mid nineties. I'm 6'7" so I was on a 22"polished heckler with an OG Z1 and BMX bars. I got 29th overall. Pros and all.
nice! I was trying to find some of the history of the trail because I thought it had to do with racing
Hell yeah !! Such a fun one !!! At the fork ( top section ) take the right next time it will leads to that double rollers. We call it the fun line. The one u took is the race line ❤❤❤❤
Nice! Thanks for the tip
Congratulations
thank you :)
Congrats ! Tried it yesterday (Sunday 8th of December 2024) for the first time and definitely the video it not giving it justice. Much harder than it looks behind the screen. Far from clearing it on my side and wondering if I would ever take the risk to try. 2 or 3 parts I consider highly difficult, especially now as the terrain is so dusty and your tires struggle to slow you down in the steepest parts. Was very surprised to see so many riders on this trail, some of them with very limited protections. The way back to the top via Canyon Acres is definitely a negative point to ride Telonics often. Unless you moved to the dark side of the force (EV bikers ;) ) or have a friend willing to do the shuttle.
I think it is one of the few trails where a shuttle makes sense. I think part of the draw is the trail and part is the isn't much traffic ( hikers/uphill riders ) on this trail on weekends.
Hey man. Nice going on cleaning the Tonics! A rite of passage at any age. 👍 and speaking of age, (I'm older than you) I probably don't have too much interest nowadays in cleaning anything more technical or "GNAR" than what trails like Telonics offer. Don't get me wrong, I like progression and want to continue to do so, but I turn into a total basket case if I'm off the bike for any extended period of time due to me being dumb and injuring myself! Ride on, man...
Risk reward... and the ratio is changing with age
great job! clearing it right now is no joke
unless you're a bad house cleaner......
Welcome back! Where have you been?
Focusing on life. It's easy to get sucked into youtube
Love that intro...How far is Canyon Acres?
I would say a mile on your left when you reach the 133.
trouble....you almost had some real trouble. Keep it coming!
I felt silly when I realized there were two catch berms at the bottom. It's amazing how much security they add. The first one has a bit of a gap/jump at the end, but you fly right through it and the second one in amazing. Still progressing...
Thank you for watching. Feel free to ask questions or leave me comments. If you have tips please share.
Another video I watched said to take all the spacers out. Yours says to install 3 or 4. What to do?
It's all about what you need. If you're bottoming out too often or not getting enough support add spacers. If the shock feels great and you aren't using all the travel remove 1 or 2. It's just another way to adjust your fork. It's easy to do so you can make a change without too much work. I hope this helps.
Indeed, thank you!
That was a blast, this trail is directly in my backyard thanks for sharing
My pleasure. We're there almost every week.
What camera are you using? It's super smooth! I need to upgrade from my Hero 5 🤣
GoPro 11, I often still use GoPro 8s as well.
Where are you in this video
Colinas Ridge. It's a lot climbing, but full of short runs
Dude love these videos!! I live right by here (condos at the bottom) and hit these trails up every week on my lunch break. I am sure one day I'll find you here.
For sure. I trimmed back some of the greenery on Edge and Ledge today
@@MTBMOR Let me know if you need help with trail work. I am down.
@@OceansideCreations awesome!
was wondering how this trail network was holding up
pretty good considering how dry its been
These are always the best youtube accounts. Consistent. And not trying to waste peoples time or grift money out of the account. Also Brett has the ELITE cardio of being able to narrate entire trails. And not sound out of breath lol (I could never)
Thank you for the compliment. Or maybe it's that I just never shut up :)
Congrats! Mooorrrrr!!!
Love it, thanks for the support
Congrats Mor!!!
Love it! Thanks for the support
Thank you again for your support. Please don't hesitate to ask questions, leave comments, or yell MOR!!!
Glad ur ok..
Thank you
I’m new to OC and have only ridden Waterworks so far. I appreciate this video.
My pleasure. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. I've made videos for most of the main trails in the area.
And the trail has been extended!! Go right after Crossfire and then Right again just before the water crossing. The up is really cool. And there's Mor! you can turn left during the up and it will take you all the way to Jardines Jungle Drop. I recommend turning left (down) on Jardines because people are flying down. There's even another jungle section near Crown Valley. Enjoy the search and thank you trail workers and builders.
I have one of those!
nice! Any tips?
I had to watch this several times to make sense of this....And I can't
LOL, it's just another bike to have fun on ...if you can
As always leave me comments and ask me questions. Would you ride a bike like this?
No way! My face would be in the handlebars as I went OTB within two seconds
