As a volunteer trail builder, thanks for the kind words. I think too many ride without a thought to the effort required to build and maintain these features.
Nice flex
i mean im just shocked you would do this for no pay, it looks like it takes months to do and as someone who has grown up with a father who works with wood i cant imagine doing all of that as volunteer work
@@eugenekrabs141 it doesn't take as long as you think when there are three of us working. I should clarify I did not build the trails in this video; I build here in Iowa and we build LOTS of wood features for our trails: berms, bridges, skinnies, A frames, boardwalks
Where did you get a trail building job? I really would love to build trails but I don’t know like if there is a website to get those jobs? It just sounds really fun to me. I can’t find any of the jobs on websites like “Indeed.”
Even if it’s just volunteer
Pipeline - my favorite! Thanks to all the trail builders over the years. My first time down that trail was 15 years ago on an XC bike. I had no idea what I was doing and it almost killed me. 15 years later and I still have no idea what I'm doing but at least the bikes have gotten better.
Sick dude.💪
Thanks to all trail builders and to those who maintain them. Alot of riders take for granted the fun they get to experience because of the hard work of others.
Alot of times there are volunteer groups that may meet up once a month to do work,they may have a Facebook page, so if you have the opportunity to help, do it. If you're unable, then maybe donate to the cause. One of our local trails is constantly being maintained by a guy living nearby and because he has developed a relationship with the city, the city has helped with donating materials. Regardless, the guy and a small group of volunteers still do the work freely, but they have jerseys for sale and the money goes towards the work they do.
If you get a chance to help with building or maintaining, it's rather rewarding to later come along and ride what you helped with.
Thanks for giving props to the people behind the scenes! I am a builder here in the states, although the Forrest service Doesn’t like the wood features, some thing about fires, I don’t know. But even still the rock work that’s throughout the trail is incredible. I do think the commentating during the ride ads to the Content Even if it’s a little huffy and puffy at times. And finally yes of course we’re in the middle of a beautiful storm giving us hero dirt here in the states! Thanks again for your channel!
Props to you and the trailmakers!!🤙
Big time
Great ride as always Dave. Words of wisdom about sharing the trails. I 100% agree.
Such epic wood work! Props to the builders for sure. Very inspiring stuff.
Thanks for stopping and showing the features. It's interesting seeing the details close-up.
Good manners and respect for others - setting a good example for everyone. 👍🏻
Your the man Dave be safe with all the crazy trails you ride
Anyone else's muscles flexing like theyre the one riding the bike?
That looks like a blast! Nice trail work.
2:47 every time you make that "woo woo" noise in your videos it reminds me of "The 3 Stooges" haha😆
I like theshoutout to the trail builders, they can be taken for granted but their work is much appreciated!
Love watching you ride those awesome trails. Trails I'd probably die multiple times on but you make them seem so easy and fun!!
My favorite videos are ones like this where you are not riding behind someone else ... plus it's dry which I like too. There's just something about the dry ground that sounds better, maybe the sandiness. Sorry the dry conditions are harder for you to bike in, but at least know it makes for nice audio haha
Also I love your kindness and respect for other trail users and trail builders. *That's* the best.
The backwards teeter totter is pure class. 🤌
Builders....major props to such detailed work to make this kind of a trail! Thank you for the dedication.
DD, thank you for highlighting what can be done on some great features.
Love your videos Dangerous Dave. Always enjoy watching you ride....you are super skilled and talented. Keep on creating top video content. You are a star 🌟
It is a good thing that he does not swear. He seems like a very educated young man. It is admirable that a young man in these times do not swear.
Amazing video quality.
No fish eye effect even though it's shot on an Insta360, makes so much difference.
I would watch this all day.
I suppose there is a happy medium between wet and dry, based on your comments? where the wood features are dry enough to have traction, but the rocks and dirt/sand are wet enough to not be dusty and loose, but still dry enough to not be muddy?
As a hiker who frequents bike trails - thank you to all bikers for your courtesy! I have no problems with quickly hopping off the trail for a rider, I know how important momentum is!
When it's thick forest, and multiple riders in a group, often times I can't see how many there are coming. So as they go by I ask the leader how many are in their party. As I count the last one going by, I confirm with them that they're the end, and I get back on the trail. Easy peasy.
Hot he says, I am staring at snow outside. Great ride, can't wait for summer to come back.
Totally agree be cool and kind to everyone on the trail.
Simply AN AWESOME VIDEO, basicly dangerous Dave quality, incredible
This trail is insane! Seriously so creative so cool. Slightly out of my current skill range on some of those skinnies but it looks so fun!
Slow tech is why we love you. Do you think is possible for us to get some hardtail content?
When the gyroscopic effect is the only friend you have.
Nice trials riding!
I remember seeing the loopback onto the seesaw in one of the previous videos a while ago. Still just as cool to see it now.
oh! commencal. :) new bike, new man.
99.9% of all the problems we have "on the trails" could be avoided if all of us just take care of others, be respectful and friendly.
Where is this trail please? Thanks for the great video. It looks like so much fun right up my street.
7:04 watching this the day after Vancouver got so much snow that the airport either shut down or Richmond has gone entirely missing. It's -9C.
Thank you. It was in time for guests.
“Way out of context…” Indeed, Dave. 😂 Good day for skiing tho!👍
Very nice ride, wish I had a 1/4 of your skill.
It's funny how a week or so of cold and snow has made me forget that we dry and dusty conditions not that long ago!
No worries about "dry and dusty" on Pipeline, it's all rock and wood.
Your bike is so quiet 😍
Great mountain bike riding advice. Etiquette.
Awesome trail 👍🤘
What a cool trail 🤘🔥
Wow bro such a beast great video keep up the good work
go ride it today Dave, might not be dry and dusty ;)
When did you film this? I find it strange you say it is so hot because where I am it is not hot lol - maybe put a month or date of when you did a ride to add context. Otherwise, love your posts!
Where is this trail
Love your videos
What does it mean when it's "dry and loose"? What are the risks with having those conditions? Why does rain help? For someone who has never been out biking in this fashion
In dry and loose conditions, the dirt can move under your tires, causing them to slip. Braking distances are lengthened as well. When it rains, the dirt sticks back together and gives your tires something solid to bit into and hold. I personally find dry and loose conditions to be more hazardous than extremely wet conditions, depending on soil type and root/rock characteristics, of course.
@@kailmarks4968 my local trails must have a bad combination of rock/dirt because when it's wet, it's far worse than dry conditions and currently I have some not so aggressive tire tread. Summer was pretty dry here and the worst of it for me was how it coated my water bottle and clothes.
When I did get out a few times too soon after a rain, man it was just treacherous.
Wet is different than damp, mentioned in an earlier reply wet and sloppy where it does become very slippery. As that dries out there’s a time of hero dirt, real tacky, holds together well rocks are dry and you feel like a hero when riding. I as it then starts to dry more the traction becomes less and less unless say riding rocks or granite features. Certain rocks will have a grip in the wet as forementioned granite is very good but something like serpentine is a very slippery rock. Roots are always slippery! Good luck in finding traction in the future, I hope this helps.
Could be wrong, but I think what DD is referencing is loose over hardpack which is generally harder to control yourself on than straight loose or even straight wet a lot of times. For me it’s the unpredictability factor that makes LOH/marbles more dangerous.
@@kailmarks4968 makes sense, thanks for the breakdown
I am a bit curious: what was the reason for you to switch from Norco to Commencal?
Your insane Dave 🙌
Amazing video as always. Wishing I would live life a little more rather than just watching others do it!
Go do it then
On your well stated comment about etiquette - Every bike seller should give out IMBA trail etiquette info with every bike purchase. So many riders I come across don't know basic trail etiquette. It's aggravating. I live and ride in Bend, OR. There are a bunch of trail snobs out here who think they're hot shit because they live a life of luxury and privilege. More often than not you will not get a friendly response, let alone a response at all, to a "hey, have a good ride!" I had one guy cuss me out because he was descending and I was climbing and we both thought the other was going to yield trail... And they love to come up behind you and silently sit on your rear wheel until you freak out looking over your shoulder then pull over for them to pass. Just announce your presence before you get right up on other riders. It's not hard.
What are your GoPro settings? The look amazing
Must have been September? The shore was as dry as a popcorn fart..
Great footage ! Can you tell us your gopro settings
GOOD
how your bladder holden up?😉😉
Nice video
What camera and setup do you use
😍😍😍
No issues with assembly for me ruclips.net/user/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L but I could see where some might benefit from using an experienced bike assembler/mechanic. I'm an older rider starting back after a 10 year break. This bike exceeds my capabilities and has been easy to get comfortable riding. I'm mostly on easy trails with almost no street riding and have not been disappointed with the performance of the bike. My fitness level is far below what I previously rode with and because of that the mileage is going on the bike slowly. While I'm losing weight slowly, the bike seems to tolerate my 220 pounds just fine. The bike has been used by several family members ranging from 5'5" - 5'9".
You said you’re ”old” but the few video where you show yourself you doesn’t seems that ”old”... so what’s your age ? 😁
Why is dry bad? Wouldn't a wet and muddy trail be worse?
Gnar
I can smell this dirt from the video going into my nostrils.
Where is this trail?
Nicely done!
I have to ask though - where is this that it's so dry and warm in late november/early december? My entire country is a sludge or snowfest. Super jealous!
Well he did said at one point "knowing me, i will upload this in winter and then it will be out of context" so i suppose he recorded it in august/september
@@Vrozkrokop Completely missed that, but you're right, at about 07:13. Makes sense!
When did you record this?
back on the gopro i see
hello Dave!
New wheels Dave?
A little dab will do ya
Watch this video at 2x speed😂
Hey Dave, just a curious question, ever encountered bears when riding these trails?
I ride these trails and yes, they do show up every now and then. Infrequent but they do show up.
All over the place in Whistler. You can rub their bellies.
@@robrider838 Ah, we have wild boar and moose(elk) where I ride, but bears freak me out a bit,
Black bears seem pretty chill though but still..
@@windowshots ..And I guess everyone’s not riding around strapping 12inch blades and bear spray on the daily right 😁
Going to have to change your name from "Dangerous Dave" to "Polite Dave".
Absolutely out of context weather commentary.
First
Your friends and family must be very proud of your incredible accomplishment.
"ohhh is loose"
*proceeds to speed up*
