With the holidays upon us, I KNOW you have been putting off your shopping... but I'm here to help with some super fresh Sampler gear. Treat yourself or a friend to these brand new comfortable T's, jerseys, and gloves with the new logo here👉bit.ly/3QXvbtg 🤘
"Today you, tomorrow me" is one of the best quotes/stories I've ever heard. No surprise Brian keeps that in his repertoire. Also Brian is a RIPPER! Lets goooo!
You and Brian looked to have an awesome time. Amazing what the company of good friends can do to boost stamina and morale, the mind is a more powerful component in health and fitness than most people will give credit to.
Sometime soon do a Redemption CO, redemption as Brian suggested. I just caught this episode and I'm going to watch the full playlist now. I just LOVE your redemption series. Would you ever consider a Canada trip?
Let's keep this shit going! The Redemptions are always a favorite, but adding the wireless mics and the level that you boys are riding at made this the best one yet! Yew
You can thank Brian for that bit of genius adding the wireless mics. He's always innovating and pushing us forward making better vids, and I gotta agree, it adds SO MUCH!
@@The_Sampler I enjoy the follow cam more than just p.o.v. and was thinking for next redemption series, also have a rear facing camera on the lead bike/rider.
I like that Brian says “ahh too slow” at 12:24, while he is so damn far ahead of you. Lol. “Oh In sorry going warp speed was t fast enough Brian” dude is insane. Honestly I said it the other day too but it really looks like Brian has hit another level, especially seeing him continue that speed and riding after that nasty nasty crash. And Alex, dude…. You look the best you have in awhile with riding! I definitely got into your channel because of your enthusiasm, and I love seeing it consistently again. Its awesome to see you both out there doing what you absolutely love, because it shows and damn if it isn’t infectious.
Man that looks crazy fun! Thanks for letting us live precariously thru your videos! The riding life seems so cool. Looking forward to more of your adventures!
I’d have to agree with Brian @17:55; “bird bath” is a solid name for the process. I am 100% remembering that next time I’m camping in an area sans showers.. thanks for recording all of this for “us”! As always, the end came surprisingly quick. But, then again, wasn’t each episode like 15-20mins minimum? A whole hours worth of wild riding; nothing to cough at!
Absolutely shattered for you both (and myself) that the trip has been cut short. I really dig your Redemption vids Alex. They're so much fun watching you guys push yourselves. Super entertaining and cannot wait for the next one. Keep the videos comin bro!💪🏼
Wow what a series of rides. I am sore from watching them. I like seeing what line I would of taken. Thanks to you and Brian for Redemption Colorado. No broken bones for the winter, thank God.
Vans are cool, but I did a 3 week mtb adventure in a rented 23 foot RV, and man, having a nice shower and a full bathroom was incredible. There was just so much room. We never even took the wheels off our bikes, amd still had room for 3 bikes inside, and a moto on the back. Also, just the integrated hot water heater, refrigerator, heater, stove, sink, AC, everything just works so well. I swear I could live full time in one. After 3 weeks I just wanted to keep going.
Watching Brian's technique now, I feel like he has really improved on what I like to think of as dynamic riding. I feel like I'm a good static rider, with a bit of dynamics, I lean my bike correctly, I stay balanced and centered. Brian is doing what I see a lot of advanced riders do and constantly bouncing, loading and loading his weight at the right times do either make himself light of obstacles or heavy when he needs traction. This is definitely the skills I'm currently working trying to get to that level.
Hell yeah !! - “here for a good time, not a long time” Loved every minute watching and sharing in your ‘redemption’ riding and friendship! Awesome and inspirational 😊
Finally caught up to this video. Totally fun! Great riding and it's wonderful to see you guys talk back and forth. there's a natural flow, which is cool as you guys are buds in real life, is my guess. Loved the ending, esp about 'redemption to redemption.' Just remember that without forgiveness there can be no redemption. There we go. I got my inner-pastor out on ya! : ) Take care.
Glad to have been able hang with you guys on this. Life has many twists and turns, but your vids always brought a moment of joyful watching. The two of you have inspired the groms to Grandpa's to go out and enjoy the adventure.
Brian could always ride pretty well. He was always learning... but I think he didn't like some of that janky stuff during covid he had to ride and needed to get out. Redemption for sure! Good stuff! Keep on guys, Love it.
Man I’ve really enjoyed this series and I’d like to be able to hang out with some friends day after day like you too have. Thanks for the inspiration guys!
Thanks for the great series. Reminds me of the good times of my mountain biking past and continues to keep my motivation up to ride more. Iconic for sure.
Love you guys! Thanks for the years of content. Been subbed to both your channels since the early days in 2016. And yeah holy sh*t, the crashes on this trip have been something else, glad you're all in one piece.
Yooo thanks Frank! Man you've seen a lot of crashes over the years if you've been here since 2016; pretty happy to have walked away from all these A-ok!
Awesome guys , Can’t wait for Redemption Redemption 😂 Awesome Alex and thank you for lifting my spirits 🤟🏼 You are an inspiration to many mountain bikers.
I thought nothing would ever beat my road cycling team mate yelling CONCRETE! when we passed a concrete factory on our way to a race, but Brian you did it with your enthusiasm seeing the pile of manure! :P 🙂
Loved the collaboration between the 2 channels. Looks like an awesome bro trip. I have a quick question about the mics or intercom system ya'll are using. I regularly ride with my sons and would like for us to be able to talk to each other while on the trails.
Awesome Redemption series! So cool to see you guys link up for these rides. You and Brian’s vids are some serious motivation to get out and ride. Where to next?

I will say I feel like I ride pretty well when with Brian and can DEFINITELY say I feel like he absolutely shreds... not that he doesn't normally lol
Where should our next Redemption Series be???
Hawaii
Southern Smokies while the leaves off, or anytime would be nice there. Glad to see you enjoying making these videos for us man.
Sometime soon do a Redemption CO, redemption as Brian suggested. I just caught this episode and I'm going to watch the full playlist now. I just LOVE your redemption series. Would you ever consider a Canada trip?

You guys are ripping it. Wow what an improvement that Brian has made. Absolute shredding the gnaar. The vibes are back after covid.
“My legs felt lightheaded”. That’s classic!!

His riding is a lot poppier as well, if that's a word. Enjoyed the series.

Hell of a trip. Heal up.

Always entertaining when you guys get together! Enjoy the vids.
Fantastic series guys. I thoroughly enjoyed each adventure.
Already looking forward to the next collaboration!
Sampler/BKXC at BC Bike Race w/ dual mikes!!
That last crash is not a crash. It is called getting of your bike at the front! :P Awesome redemption guys! Really enjoyed watching it! 👍
Pro tip...Strand bonus is a much more enjoyable climb up :)
Absolutely fantastic loved every second, you 2 are such fun together
I've been watching,,,and still and will ,,,ha ha,,,,i love it,,,
