- Welcome to Austin, TX - where the topo chico flows free, the Kalache is King, and the mountain biking is WAY better than you would have ever imagined.

That’s right, in case you haven’t been paying attention, the Lone Star State has been undergoing somewhat of a mountain biking renaissance period and right at the heart of it is the state capital, Austin.
Thanks to my RUclips community, Austin found itself on my radar, so during my trip across the country last month I made a point of stopping to check it out, and man am I happy I did!

I would really like to see his bike set up in more detail. I'm a powersport technian, and have set up a few motorcycles for people that were missing limbs. It's pretty awesome to watch someone do something they love that they never thought they would do again because of a massive injury.
So good. Thanks for getting me to drop that ledge, coach! What a great few days, and hopefully next time our paths cross in a location that's new to both of us!
Just subscribed to you dude!
Good stuff man! What's easy for others is challenging for the rest of us and it's awesome to see you conquering the stuff that I would be afraid of as well!
Thanks everyone!
love the name! keep on rippin 8-)
Yep, Subscribed too from San Antonio!
The storytelling and documentary-esq style of this video really shows how far you've come in this game. It's almost like a completely different channel now - and I mean that in the best possible way. This is the video that convinced me to start contributing on Patreon. You've really stepped up your production value and the effort you're pouring into this is reflected in your final product. Keep it up. Your channel and your outlook on life inspires so many people.
Oh man you just totally killed that Alex!!! Out of all the you tubers that have showcased this area your video had a vibe that really gave you the feeling of what it is like there. Thank you.
This was such a good film dude. Respect for all the cat puns. Texas is rad and I'm glad to call all these dudes my friends. Thanks for showcasing what we've got and it was a blast meeting and riding with you!
you were shredding man!
Yeah cobra!
0:25 this orange jersey man is a king.
Riding without one arm that’s what we called passion.
Veloce_Foals hes got a yt page “no front brakes”
Some of us are stopping in Texas on our way to the GoPro Mountain Games next week. Maybe we'll have to do some mountain biking... Sick video!
If you happen to go to Spyder mountain theres an amazing bike park called Reveille Bike park thats 3 miles away it has the best jumps in all of texas!
i dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know a tool to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot my login password. I appreciate any tips you can offer me
@Marcus Felix Instablaster =)
Wow man. This is by far the best video you have ever made!! Keep up the great work!!👍🏽🤙🏽
I agree great video
I have to say Alex, I was missing seeing you twice a week but damn this video quality is awesome. LFRHGS MY DUDE!!
Digging the voice over format. Enjoyable to watch and awesome story telling. I know the work that goes into this so props.
Nice video Alex! I'm digging this new style of telling a story! keep it up
Best video yet. I detect a little “Seth” influence.
Dang! I need to get on that patron! Just up the road and i missed out!
Glad you enjoyed what TX has to offer, BEFORE it got hot!
Nice work dude! That was an awesome video, and excellent portrayal of our TX MTB scene!
The mountain bike scene has steadily grown in Tejas since the 90's. Back then only a handful of us traveled to the NORBA Nationals from Texas. I always tried to bring back ideas to the lone star state. Glad some have cemented themselves in Austin. Great video. Ride Hard!
You're amazing my dude. Thanks for giving Texas some love.
One of your best videos! Thanks for coming to Texas!
I picked up Mountain Biking as a hobby when I lived in Texas. The MTB community there is strong and always growing. I would travel a lot for work, and anytime I went anywhere I made sure to throw my bike in the back of my truck because there are great trails EVERYWHERE!
Great video btw sts! I like that you incorporated a lot more narration and B-Roll. Much easier to watch in this format.
I was just wondering yesterday where the Sampler was, now I see. That was a helluva video, well done!
Dude. I love the new format of your videos. Can't even imagine how much work you put into this. I guess that's why it has been a while. Kinda gave me a PBS Rick Steves travel show vibe, but with bikes. Instead of just watching your pov and hearing you excited, I actually want to get out to Austin. Keep up the good work and stay safe out there!
It was a pretty awesome surprise meeting you at spider mountain on easter. Thanks for showing off Austin! Keep killing it man.
Man this video is probably my favorite video from you. The effort put into this video really shows. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!
You are getting amazing at making these videos!! The music, the narrating, the riding. Makes me want more!
Dude, Alex, thank you so much. I am moving to DFW soon and Austin is reasonably close. I'm going to Spider Mountain like the week I get there but this video helps so much on finding other stuff in the area. I'm originally from Arkansas, then went to college in Alabama so to me moving to Texas was resigning my MTB experience to park days in Angelfire, NM. I'm so glad that this is not the case. Thank you so much for bringing these communities to light and showing the world what they have to offer. I would love to see a video like this from every scene you see because it helps me find where to ride when going on vacation, business trips, or to see family and friends. Love your work man, live free, ride hard, and stay stoked my dude.
Adventure Arkansas Dallas has a pretty big scene too. Check out DORBA (Dallas Off Road Bicycle Association)
Great video! Thanks for highlighting Texas. I am 53, living in Texas 11 years, and only discovered mountain biking over the summer. After buying a Trek Marlin I was hooked, and found great trails practically in my own back yard in a suburb of Houston, and have been riding 4 to 5 days a week even as the daylight hours diminished this fall. You are so right about the community and passion, but not just in Austin. Houston is the flattest place I've ever lived, but the trail builders in my area are doing a fantastic job, as you say, making the most of what little elevation we do have.
Thanks for coming to Texas. The mountain biking community is growing and we appreciate your noticing us. I just started mountain biking a little over a year ago myself and turn 70 in a few months so getting a late start. I wish I had started sooner but it is never to late I guess.
I think hearing Alex's woops of joy and excitement while hes riding is what keeps me coming back again and again. I love hearing him having the time of his life.
hey buddy, just got into mtb this year and was watching a ton of yours and seth's videos. THIS IS GOOD. best of your videos ive seen so far. good shit!
So... it was you. I was at Cat MTN that day and parked right behind your van and didn't even know it. Maybe I'll get another chance to meet you on the trail some day. Cheers.
These educational, entertaining and well thought out videos keep bringing me back to you man. I don't usually watch other MTB you tuber videos videos fully, but I always do for yours. Keep up the excellent work.
Liking the more “polished” feel. But don’t give up that raw feel entirely. Some of my favorite parts of your videos are the commentary during the ride. Feeling the stoke while you ride is priceless
paulsoa1 agreed. Don’t get too polished in your presentation.
I’m glad you edited out the part where it took me forever to get the backing off my sticker hahah. I still need to get back to that taco place!
hahaha Chris you know I got your back :P
damn these puns are killing me. puntinue producing great videos, Alex!
Wow... You captured it all in this video... Stunning trails, delicious food, flowing beer and awesome local MTB community.. oh and the lifts... I want to go NOW!!! Great video Alex ..
Wow. Your production quality has gone way up! Stoked!
glad you enjoyed austin; it's my favorite city to visit! the music, food, and people are all great, and best of all, hill country and the beautiful nature outside the city is incredible
Great video! I love mountain biking and I love Austin, so it’s great to see you promoting both!
Alex, you're so inspiring, you always have fun and are a genuine person, LFRHGS my dude 🤘
Another great story and awesome edit I absolutely love this format nice to see you hanging out with all the great youtubers in the area as well. Definitely a place I want to hit up in the future with all the great guys down there like Scott Smith, Cobra Kyle, No Front Brakes.
You can shred all year long in Texas, and Austin seems like a great place to be by! Nice vid man!
Heck yea! I need to make it out there.
I'm glad you enjoyed Austin! You are actually the reason I got into cycling. I currently only road bike but am gettin my first MTB soon! I document my rides and adventures on my channel all inspired by you. Thanks Alex
Great video, I think its your best one yet. The editing and story telling have really improved over the last couple of years
Congrats Alex!!! This 3rd person vids are awsome!!! You're getting better with every new vid!!!! Congrats again!!!
Great video! ...and you just scratched the surface of Texas mountainbiking!
Dude, great way to talk and promote the MTB scene in Texas, specially coming from somebody like you that has been in lost of cool places and MTB trail. Thanks brother!!!
Great video!! The food at the end did it for me. Now Austin is on my list of places I must visit. Good job capturing the whole essence of the trip. It's what I look for in these types of videos.
Dude I had so much fun! Absolutely killer video and you did Texas proud for sure. Can’t wait until our next trip!!
Love the new video. Awesome work. Like others have said, a good mix of this and old format would be great. Keep it up
Great video! Been watching Spider Mountain on the feeds and wow how great is this (what’s happening in TX) for the sport!!!
Awesome, thx for visiting! Beauty for us Texans who mountain bike is we also have fairly easy access to Colorado, New Mexico, and Arkansas to change up the vibe when needed.
Bravo! Love seeing people push their limits. Lifts are nice but everyone needs to learn to enjoy the climb.
Great job Alex! Really enjoyed the video. Keep up the amazing work!
Drone footage at the end, yes! Great place and fantastic coverage of Texas MTB scene. You did them justice Alex.
I really liked the narration over the video, this is one of the best so far!
As a relatively new rider in Texas I really what to check out spider mountain.
Bobby Hempel do it you won’t regret it
Been waiting for this vid ever since I heard you were in town! Excellent work, and I hope you come back soon!
Super rad content. You seem like a super wholesome dude. Found your channel from van build stuff. I'm a drummer that's looking to move to Dallas for 6 months, and then to Nashville to pursue a full time career as a drummer. Your videos on van building and biking are fun and inspiring. Definitely appreciate the well written narration. I purchased a tour van a few years ago that I'm going to convert to a house. No more spending half of my income for rent! Cheers man.
Really awesome tx vid!! Respect!
I really like the narration on this one. There was a lot of energy and emotion in your speech and tone of voice and it really added to the experience
Love love love the Seth style video. Definitely make more like this in the future!
holy cow this video is super high quality. one of the best you have ever made, if not THE best. Keep up the awesome work!
Love the new vid format man!
Wow! Those wooden features starting at 6:34 are awesome and look like tons of fun! If I ever get out to Texas, I would definitely like to ride this area! Thanks for sharing! Great work on and off the trail man! 👍👍
Love this format man! Great stuff!
Love the content, hope to see you on the trails someday. Keep up the great work!
Quality video man! I just ride a mountain bike around town for exercise but I love watching mountain bike videos and this was a great one.
like others have said, this has to be one of your best vids, nice job!
Thanks for featuring our "little" area of mountain biking. I moved here from California 7 years ago and I have to say I was a little worried about no mountains (Tahoe was my playground). Mountain biking here is a good as ever though and has even taught me some new and different skills. Yes you can teach an old mountain biker new tricks. :)
Hell yeah man! Loving how much that you've been upping your game recently!! Such good story telling!
This video is frickin sick! Keep it up👍🏻
Love the editing style!
I love seeing the mountain bike culture expanding. I wish this had been happening 20 years ago but still stoked that it's happening now AND in many places.
Really impressed by the video format and the quality of the video! Nice job dude! Keep up the good work! :)
Congrats on this video !....fantastic...! Being an Austin mountain biker myself... I can say you did us proud man ! That's the best Austin MTB scene youtube video out there ! Thanks !
Great Job! I live in Round Rock and this area has a plethora of great riding within easy reach. The MTB community here is second to none! Congrats on finally getting a taste of it!
crazy good video man i stopped tuning in for a bit but this one definitely brought me back i was hooked through the whole video
So cool, thanks for introducing this area. The vid draws my attention to look more often for local initiatives. Keep Going!
Nice one Alex! Interesting to mix it up a bit like this with a different format and narration etc, love your work 🤘🥝🤘
Really enjoyed the vid. Captures the spirit of mountain biking perfectly 👊🏼
Way overdue since I was way behind on videos, but dude, this was amazing, your storytelling has gotten phenomenal! Thanks for the great insight into TX.
Heck yeah! I’m new the MTB scene and only 4 hours from Austin. Can’t wait to start making my way around to different trails.
I really like this style of video! Hope you do more of them! Keep it up!
Yeeehawww! Would love to try some of that Texas riding 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Make your way down here! ATX has a great scene.
I’m really digging your channel man. Well done! It’s pushed me to go on and give my creative videography a go and I’m pushing for some trail improvement around me! Thanks again
Nice video! And thanks for ideas on places to go ride on vacation next year.
Been waiting forever for one of these Texas mtb videos
Hope I did the community justice 🤘
Love the new format, it really reminded me of Seth's work but you brought your own flair. Thanks for all of the great content.
Really love the new style of videos!
7:55 - thankyou Alex for mentioning the importance of BEGINNER FRIENDLY trails. Not everyone has the sporting ability or desire to tackle black trails with massive jumps and drops. Some of us just aren't that good! And we have kids who like to ride flow trails and some moderate blues without killing ourselves. Think about every sport you've ever played - there have been A grade down to D grade and onwards to cater for different skill and fitness levels. Mountain biking should be no different :-)
And in my experience, it's the players from the lower skill levels that are the heart and soul of many sporting clubs.
Alex, I really miss living vicariously through your videos. Your life rocks from the outside!!! Stoked for your next vid!
Great video. Format was superb!
Favorite video so far! Awesome stuff!
Nice to see a new STS videos, especially one with all the cat puns.
Great content bro! Love the effort in this vid!
So good I had to rewatch 🤘... Can't wait to hit up Spider Mountain in a few months!
Born and raised in Texas but moved away before I got into mountain biking! Love to see the Lone Star State getting some love - especially from someone as dedicated to quality content as you, my man! Keep up the Stoke!
Love the new voice over style and the high quality mic you use for it. Awesome video and evolved style!
New to the channel recently subscribed watched alot of videos already and each video especially ones like this just seem so entertaining to watch I swear it feels like I'm relaxing watching television the narration aswell as the footage and the talking about where you are and going into a places culture aswell as food and drinks and the people is amazing and feels really nice and comfortable to watch
Awesome job man, keep up the great work
I've been living in Austin for a few years now and cutting my teeth on the local trails, and I love the area. For a rookie, there are so many trails to learn on, and as I ride more challenging features I get more and more inspired to build bigger stuff on my home trail. Thanks as always for the dope vids!
i have mad respect for Eric, your doing a great job man and keep up the great shred mate.
