The Rocky Point trail network is a huge achievement for Portland, Oregon area mountain bike riders, as Portland does NOT have a ton of mountain biking by any means! If you’d like to ride these trails, or heck, just support the advocates that have been managing this area, please visit the North West Trails Alliance website here: nw-trail.org/trails/rocky-point/
The Norco Optic C1 is available and in stock here at Jenson USA via my affiliate link: bit.ly/NorcoOpticBikeJKW
Also, FYI, the Optic frame has a very competitive price point: bit.ly/NorcoOptic2020FrameJKW

You need to come to Eugene to ride the new jump line (The Gift) Team Scraper is building at Carpenters Bypass. Done this summer.
I love riding with Kerstin. She always has a big smile on her face when riding. She's a RIPPER!
Good work these guys are doing. Working so well with big business. Props to the logging company too for sharing their land. It would be so easy to say no.
This trail SLAPS. An absolute party. Well done NWTA. Its my new favorite trail.
Nice seeing a Starling Murmur being ridden hard out in the wild :)
Sweet trails aswell!
can't say no to fun jumps and high fives!
thanks to all the trail builders in the whole world :)
That looks like so much fun and it’s right up the road from me but all I hear are ambulance sirens in my head😂
So Much Air looks like SO MUCH FUN!
Portland has a surprising lack of trails.
It is so hard to gain access to land to build trails, especially near bigger cities. Oregon is doing things right. Great vid JKW.
I need to head back over to Rocky Point sometime soon. Super stoked NWTA was able to make that happen!
Would love to see you review this place as well. I'm in the Portland area and your videos have been really helpful.
@@samuelh31992 It’s on my list of places to get to.
Bob's Yer Uncle - is the name of that secret trail
So rad and great to see Kerstin in this as well, she rocks!!
I don't see how you can say that SMA is rideable by beginners. I took me wife down that trail and she had to walk more than half of it. Still a few features I don't feel comfortable riding. Great trail, yes! Beginner friendly, not even close IMO
Looks like a fun stop by from Corvy on the way to Hood!
I was here last weekend. Happy to support NWTA. I will say it was a bit wet and muddy, Julie's Line was really really really really harsh.
Very cool!
Nice riding as always👍🙂
love rocky point. very bummed I wasn't up there when you were. would've loved to run into you!
Excellent... Hammerheads
Wish some of our trails looked more like that around the black hills.
Siiiiick
Sends!!
Should have posted this before I bought my xt der on jenson yesterday😭
Here a real Zen type question that I had never considered before; Can anything that is man planned, designed and then built be actually called a trail or is the more accurately called a "run".
Good video.
Hey Jeff, I know short travel bikes aren't exactly your style but I'd love your help with my new-bike-decision-paralysis if that's cool? I 'm torn between the optic C3 and the ripley af. I've had a chance to parking lot test an optic, which I absolutely loved, but not an af. My hesitstion with the optic is that my daily access trails are xco style so I want something I can take to the mountains but mostly pedal around my locals. Having tried both I was really hoping you might have some insights for me on the pedaling and weight factor between the two? Thanks Jeff!
I hugely recommend riding yacolt burn next time your near Portland
Just started going a couple weeks ago, this place gets steep on the bottom.
Kirsten and Thomas are the best.
Yo Jeff, question unrelated to this video: what do you think about the lower spec Rocky Mountain Altitude C50 with a 36 and DPX2? Is it worth it still? Thanks!!
How do you get to the trial?
First? p.s. love the video
Probably a better outlet for this info but considering Bellingham for a MTB trip. With COVID, is travel between Vancouver Canada and Bellingham US an issue? Is there a quarantine, test or proof of vaccination requirement?
Looked for SMA at the NWTA Rocky Point trailforks and didn't see it there. Did it shut down due to logging/spraying, or re-named? Thank for any input you guys can give me. Looks sweet!
All of rocky point is hidden on trail forks. Once you are a member you get access, and you’ll find sma then.
@@JeffKendallWeed Thanks for the reply! I'm a NWTA member and have access to the hidden Trailforks map. Looks like the trail was re-named 'Twisted Knickers.' Cheers, and thanks again for the sweet content!
@@jefferywassom6472 Jeez Jeff. Always having problems with Trail Forks. 🤣😂🤣😂
Very cool trail. That is what I would like to ride daily.
Get BKXC over there to work on his jump skills. He is lacking big time.
Difficulty: not in Portland
NWTA finally give up on forest park, or is that still “in the works”
lol
Portland sucks for mountain biking and this is a weak attempt to link this trail system to the city
Wow cry us a river, its a 20 min drive.
