Don't forget the Mulally brother's series for the Frameworks bike development and builds. Not only fascinating building a bike brand but Logan's video producing make it all the better. Fortunate time to like watching MTB content for sure.
Maybe it's because I've been riding since the late 80s and am older and wiser now but it's this type of storytelling that captivates me the most about MTB and sport in general. This past year in women's DH particularly was just special with Marine, Tahnee, and Ami making returns from horrible circumstances to overcome and get back at the pointy end. Warriors!!!
These episodes from pinkbike are my absolute favourites. Honest content like this with genuine personalities always moves me. Thank you for inspiring videos like this, beats all other mtb content on RUclips. Best of luck in 2024 Aimi...
I shed a tear in the end because I felt it right in the heart. I love this series and everything about it. You don’t just show the usual shallow stuff which we can find basically everywhere, you go deeper than that and we get to see all of you people involved in this and the amount of effort you put into this. And Aimi, she is kicking butt and taking names. 😁 What a champ, and you Ben, great mentor. I just find it interesting to see the young ones that are gonna take this thing forward into a bright and positive future, albeit with a few bumps here and there.
It's amazing what athletes like Aimi or Tahnee can come back from. Both had almost life changing concussions, yet they are both still pushing their limits between the tape. Mad respect!
I look at Aimi and I see distilled into one person what it means to be young and have your whole life ahead of you. I don't care if Aimi ever wins a race I just want her to have as rich and as fulfilled a life as possible. As someone in the middle of their life with the hindsight of age it's really the lens I see young people through.
Cathro is such a great presenter, personality, and probably just an awesome dude in general. This series is incredible. More of this wholesome, inspiring content and less gatekeeping BS.
It's kinda hard to not become all touchy-feely here, what with a young person's dreams on the line.. it was great to see the change in Aimi's eyes when she got back on track. The difference between her riding back when the series started and now is staggering. Also, i love when Ben is his silly self (arguably the best self one can be) but it's really cool to see him thrive in a mentoring role too. I'm searching for a point to make here but i guess i just like what you guys do. Please keep doing it and sharing it.
Got me lumpy throat and tears right before the end.. It felt like I was there beside Aimi.. I want to comfort her but can't... Like an invisible person watching and feeling all her struggles, witnessing her fight and listening to her hopes.. Perhaps because of my younger sister. Ahh... Life challenges came knocking at her door, absolutely huge one at her age.. but she faced it not with force but embraced it with courage, strength and grace. Aimi you're hero to many young girls out there. Thank you for being an inspiring person. As you have said "She's still got it." Thank you Ben and team. Honest, down to earth, awe-inspiring, cinematic, fun, mtb channel ever! 🎉
Finally! Been waiting for the second season. This is like the Ted Lasso of mountain bike series. Captivating, heartfelt and super well produced. Go Aimi and the rest of the team!
You're so adorable Aimi! Wish you the best! Stay well, stay strong and go for it! Live the dream! You ought to be very proud of what you've accomplished. You're the definition of determination! ✌
Aimi we love you, remember to give yourself time and space, you're doing great on and off the bike!! excellent work by the production crew, take it easy
Great episode. Well done Aimi. Took the wee fella and Mrs to watch the final supporting the Inverness girl, very emotionally charged day for the Mrs considering she's not into mountain biking. 😆
Incredible production and storytelling, albeit made with the best ingredients. Aimi's riding so well - really hitting the jumps! That's a really solid year after that bad a concussion, Tahnee's had her share of ups and downs coming back. As much as I enjoyed the episode (as the first season), I don't agree with the title... I don't think it will be next year, but also don't think that was the "Last Chance..." And, Aimi, for the pressure you feel, we will only ever feel disappointed for you, never by you, just keep having fun!
Life itself rolls up and down and so with every racer's riding career. Where you stand now is a great success. Others were not lucky to come back, especially after accidents. You've come this far young lady. Keep it up! You're our champ! Well soon see you in the top spot!
In the world of racing, you are judged by where you finish. In Life you will be judged by others for your accomplishments. There is an old saying "Don't judge another till you've walked a mile in their shoes". The world we live in judges by wins and losses. We must not judge ourselves by these standards. We must go out and do the best we can each and every day. If you do this, you can look in the mirror and say you did your best. What others may think or say should not matter to us. Outstanding job Aimi
This is such a great series. A incredible team both riders and crew. Sleeper kill it every time and the way the story is told is just, well perfect. Ami has done so so well to come back in such a relatively short time from a place no one should find themselves. It's a testament to Ami and all who helped her. Ami's time is coming.
Thinking back to the time I first saw Cathro I wasn't a big fan of him but that really changed over the years. It's really obvious how much thought and work he puts into everything he does be it videos or the race team. He might be the only reason I'm still subscribed to Pinkbike.
The Whole team is Sick, the video is sick every thing is sick. For some reason I personally feel this series connects with me more than many of the other youtube series out there from any one. Some of the Vlogs are cool but you still don't get that same emotional attachment. For someone who has taken a step back from MTB due to a potential life changing crash earlier in the year. These short films still keep me excited about riding. Well done every one, keep erm coming.
Beautifully done, epic story and brilliant storytelling. Well done all in this achievement and most of all well done Aimi - what mental skill and strength you have
This has been the best series on DH racing I've seen in a long time. Amazing to all involved, keep up the great work and looking forward to many more years of PB Racing.
Well done for keeping going. I was hit by a car on my bike in 1990 (drivers fault), smashed left ankle, 2 screws, absolute agony, 7 months off work. First day back to work on my new bike, hit by another car, you couldn't make it up! I wasn't hurt that time thankfully but I then bought a car and sold the bike, far too scared of bikes ever since. At least you have the will to carry on and fight for what you want. Keep going Aimi, you have the strength, the support and the will to succeed. Don't give up like I did, the regret will haunt you for life if you give up. Only do it if you want to though, do it for you and only you.
Incredible content, footage style and finesse. That inner-voice is so hard to control and Aimi's back story was so deep and intense it makes me feel massively embarrassed to have been one of the plebs to ask for a selfie at fort bill that day 🙃 We all believe
Such a lovely, captivating and emotional episode. Like others already wrote before: everything's spot on; music, editing, story telling. Indeed it's a modern fairytale and I am very sure that Aimi will not only leave further footprints behind, but will also have a splendid time herself, racing yellow, orange and pink bikes 🙂
Been putting this off until I had some free time and could give it full concentration. Great perspective and documentary. Love Pinkbike Racing team long time!
Great start into the new series. I love howyou produced it, I love you guys and I hope to see more great videos and clips of you. On a side note: where do you get the music for the last and the recent season, especially the synthwavy stuff? The vibe fits you guys!
STOKED!!! But how did I miss this? Somehow I missed PB Racing is back. But jeeeez, once again, some of those race runs have me gripped with suspense. Oh and of course big hug to you Aimi, you look strong on the bike, and very inspiring 💪
This series and Dialed have to be the two best mountain bike video series out now. So well done, editing and sound is spot on.
Don't forget the Mulally brother's series for the Frameworks bike development and builds. Not only fascinating building a bike brand but Logan's video producing make it all the better. Fortunate time to like watching MTB content for sure.
Agree but maybe add the GoPro Beyond Limits of Jackson and Frameworks as already mentioned.
There’s a load of amazing content out there these days. I’m happy we can be included in your shortlist ❤
Along with MoiMoi and Ed Masters!
@@customtobi576 moi moi, wynTV, BK sport, etc… all awesome but it’s not remotely high quality edited cinematography like these other series.
Cathros content is by far the best on pinkbike - I’d go so far as saying this is the best mountain bike content anywhere these days.
I totally agree 👍
Yesss
Absolutely the best DH content/series. 🤘🤘🔥
by a cross country mile
Indeed. 👍
Captivating. In hindsight, ami should be proud. She’s come so far. In early episodes, Ben had to teach her to jump!
She did so well this season considering everything that happened. She’s a champ in my eyes.
Need two cups of tea for this epic ☕️. Let’s go Aimi!!!
Maybe it's because I've been riding since the late 80s and am older and wiser now but it's this type of storytelling that captivates me the most about MTB and sport in general. This past year in women's DH particularly was just special with Marine, Tahnee, and Ami making returns from horrible circumstances to overcome and get back at the pointy end. Warriors!!!
women need to get back to birthing children and not racing bikes. Real fucking talk
These episodes from pinkbike are my absolute favourites. Honest content like this with genuine personalities always moves me. Thank you for inspiring videos like this, beats all other mtb content on RUclips. Best of luck in 2024 Aimi...

I just find it interesting to see the young ones that are gonna take this thing forward into a bright and positive future, albeit with a few bumps here and there.
The story telling and the production level is as good as Netflix’s drive to survive. Good on you! This should win awards!!!
It's amazing what athletes like Aimi or Tahnee can come back from. Both had almost life changing concussions, yet they are both still pushing their limits between the tape. Mad respect!
12:46 epic hair moment,
16:37 epic line choices,
everybody is crying all the time.
Nice first episode of the best mtb series ever🔥

Editing and production quality is epic, the tension in this episode was crazy. Knocked it out of the park once again.
Elle est trop mimi Aimi ! Elle est Amimi !
Keep going Aimi, NEVER GIVE UP and live your dream 💙🤍❤
Honestly, one of the best videos I have watched in a long time!
Everything about this is incredible.
Cathro is such a great presenter, personality, and probably just an awesome dude in general. This series is incredible. More of this wholesome, inspiring content and less gatekeeping BS.
Epic bit of film making, Ami should be so proud of the year, the people's champ!
This was amazing to watch and Ami is really impressive in how she came back from her crash and dealt with everything!!! 🤩 Big respect for that!!!!!
Aimi, you are amazing, I wish you all the best. One time you will probably be a world cup holder and if not, I think that you’ve already won.
It's kinda hard to not become all touchy-feely here, what with a young person's dreams on the line.. it was great to see the change in Aimi's eyes when she got back on track. The difference between her riding back when the series started and now is staggering.

Literally the best MTB content on RUclips!
Now this is content that deserves being uploaded to RUclips!
You're so adorable Aimi! Wish you the best! Stay well, stay strong and go for it! Live the dream! You ought to be very proud of what you've accomplished. You're the definition of determination! ✌
Well done!
Beautifully produced episode
Good on ya, Aimi for your competitive spirit and great riding
Aimi we love you, remember to give yourself time and space, you're doing great on and off the bike!!
excellent work by the production crew, take it easy
Queen of the Scots in my book. Great production.cheers!
This was Fantastic, captivating, moving and inspiring. Aimi has a great future in Downhill.
Excellent work Aimi and team. I can't help but highlight the incredible sound work on this series - It is outstanding.
absolutely loved this, well done Ami for coming back from that you should be proud of your
self and the whole team
Great episode. Well done Aimi. Took the wee fella and Mrs to watch the final supporting the Inverness girl, very emotionally charged day for the Mrs considering she's not into mountain biking. 😆

Absolutely incredible episode. So well made in terms of everything. The tension, pacing, videography and the reveal at the end. Chapeau

Was so pumped for a new pinkbike racing season, and you delivered. What an episode!
This is such a great series. A incredible team both riders and crew. Sleeper kill it every time and the way the story is told is just, well perfect. Ami has done so so well to come back in such a relatively short time from a place no one should find themselves. It's a testament to Ami and all who helped her. Ami's time is coming.
wow. IMO some of the best MTB content in a while. Shedding tears of both joy and sadness. MTB is a big family, we all can relate a some point.
Thanks for the inspiration these last two years! Im sure this video will help a lot of people, it's definately helped me a bit
Great episode. Very much inspiring. Thanks Aimi, Ben, Harry and crew!
Best mtb RUclips content. Period ❤
Great film, great rider in Ami and a team that rocks!
So wanted the fairy tale ending even though I knew it wasn’t going to happen.
Amazing, inspiring, entertaining. I love Amy's approach. Sick on a bike and so lovely.
Thank you pinkbike for this !!!!
The videography is stunning on this. Soundtrack is excellent too. Great job.
This series is incredible.
That was absolutely brilliant watch.... The mental strength to come back from there is inspiring, your made of some tuff stuff Aimi..
How inspiring, love this series so much! Aimi is ao great!
Thinking back to the time I first saw Cathro I wasn't a big fan of him but that really changed over the years. It's really obvious how much thought and work he puts into everything he does be it videos or the race team. He might be the only reason I'm still subscribed to Pinkbike.
This is some of the best content out there. Previous season was captivating from the first till the last episode, can't wait for more.
Beautifully produced story 👌🏻
The Whole team is Sick, the video is sick every thing is sick. For some reason I personally feel this series connects with me more than many of the other youtube series out there from any one. Some of the Vlogs are cool but you still don't get that same emotional attachment. For someone who has taken a step back from MTB due to a potential life changing crash earlier in the year. These short films still keep me excited about riding.
Well done every one, keep erm coming.
I hate seeing people injured. But do appreciate these are some amazing athletes ! Try to stay safe all ! 🇨🇦 🙏
So intense !!! It like a movie contense in 36 minutes... crazy the quality of this video. Ami is a great rider and her journey is very inspiring. ❤
Beautifully done, epic story and brilliant storytelling. Well done all in this achievement and most of all well done Aimi - what mental skill and strength you have
DH is crazy dangerous. Respect to anyone who really sends it hard, one mistake and your looking up the Paralympics application process
She’s so quick on a bike. Fearless after such a horrible knock. Good on her, and great production on the video!
great episode - probably go so far as saying best thing watched on youtube for some time
This has been the best series on DH racing I've seen in a long time. Amazing to all involved, keep up the great work and looking forward to many more years of PB Racing.
Well done for keeping going. I was hit by a car on my bike in 1990 (drivers fault), smashed left ankle, 2 screws, absolute agony, 7 months off work. First day back to work on my new bike, hit by another car, you couldn't make it up! I wasn't hurt that time thankfully but I then bought a car and sold the bike, far too scared of bikes ever since.

Absolutely amazing film work, story line, & editing. Truly great on all parts & I'm pumped to see the rest of the series!
As always, this was amazing! Stoked the series is back. Next level production for something you kindly make completely free to watch.
Really digging the inside look into these riders. Top shelf content, editing, audio and everything between.
Amazing. All of the crew are such inspirations, and the level of filmmaking quality in this is insane.
so Excited to see PBR back!.
Incredible content, footage style and finesse. That inner-voice is so hard to control and Aimi's back story was so deep and intense it makes me feel massively embarrassed to have been one of the plebs to ask for a selfie at fort bill that day 🙃
We all believe
Great insight video Ben. Aimi is one tough cookie according to my 10 year old daughter and her inspiration!
This content is so good !! Love it !!
Absolutely incredible work from the Sleeper crew and Pink Bike Racing! Can't wait for the next one
Loved every episode from this incredible series. Thank you very much and I'll be missing watching the PB Racing Team ! Good luck to you all.
ANOTHER PINK BIKE RACING VIDEO. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It's one of the best serial about racing DH 💪🤟🏆🚴 Great work !!!
Absolute gold! Keep it up!
Ben Cathro is the best presenter on Pink Bike, hands down. No contest, send the rest of them home.
Such an incredible documentary.
Everything from music choice to the actual camerawork.
One day I hope to make something like this.
Pink Bike Racing #1 ❤
Such a lovely, captivating and emotional episode. Like others already wrote before: everything's spot on; music, editing, story telling. Indeed it's a modern fairytale and I am very sure that Aimi will not only leave further footprints behind, but will also have a splendid time herself, racing yellow, orange and pink bikes 🙂
Simply put. Great bloody video! Filing, sound, insight and soundtrack all amazing.
amazing,❤the music, the lot, great work. Making these dark nights a hole lot better. thanks.
Stunning. Beautifully told, shot and edited. Thanks you for this gem
God lord what an episode. I would love a cinematic directors cut release. @pinkbike just double everyone’s salary.
Great first episode. Kudos to the whole team !
Been putting this off until I had some free time and could give it full concentration. Great perspective and documentary. Love Pinkbike Racing team long time!
Aimi is the best ❤
Great start into the new series. I love howyou produced it, I love you guys and I hope to see more great videos and clips of you.
On a side note: where do you get the music for the last and the recent season, especially the synthwavy stuff? The vibe fits you guys!
Sound design on this episode was perfect
Best video Ive seen in a long time.
Imagine watching this on IMAX ❤
STOKED!!! But how did I miss this? Somehow I missed PB Racing is back. But jeeeez, once again, some of those race runs have me gripped with suspense. Oh and of course big hug to you Aimi, you look strong on the bike, and very inspiring 💪
Your team and video team makes great videos. Well done
great video! Ami should be so proud of herself!
She‘s so tough and did amazing!
thats some quality content here! Love the Edit
This is so, so well put together. Well done!
Absolutely compelling watching 🤘🤘
I thought I understood what racing was about... after watching this it has changed
What I'd give to be able to ride like Aimi, shame I'm a crap 52 year old bloke...
Amazing riding and equally amazing story telling.
Outstanding episode
Great series
Brilliant.
