- While mountain biking in Aliso, she crashed. And now, she's coming back to get redemption. A slam on the Car Wreck trail left Kath pretty shook up, but today, she is going to ride it again.

SO pumped Katy took you advice and improved..now for those darn bugs. I always seem to inhale one while huffing and puffing on the climbs!!!
Heck yeah!
LOL! Now she needs to take my "breath through your nose" advice.
Redemption and protein all in one ride!
😆
The camera makes it look so much easier that it actually is!!! Great video
True. But give the rider some credit, eh? 😆
@@mtb_alan haha, for sure!!!
Glad she cleared it, the first crash was a gnarly spill to overcome!
You said it man. Glad you were there. I was a little freaked out for a sec.
Nice Katy! Always feels better cleaning up a crash site.
You said it!
Awesome! I lost it when she ate the bug. LOL
😆 I laughed every time while editing!
Man, I love when you cover Aliso. It always gives me a fresh perspective on my local. HUGE congrats to Katy and, I REALLY need to break my bad braking habit! ✌🏼🤟🏼
Right on!
I’ll pass your message on to Katy. 👊🏾
NOICE!!!!! Way to get it back Katy 💪🏽💪🏽. Great tips on breaking Alan. Awesome video as always my bro
Katy killed it. Thanks, Mark. 👊🏾
Been riding Aliso for 5 years and went down Car Wreck the first time the other day. Not ashamed to say I walked a couple of sections, but next time may try to ride a little more. Way more gnarly than your video appears! Well done y'all!
Thanks Chad! Yeah...Car Wreck has some tricky sections.
LOL “right in the throat!!!” That was awesome
😆
Nice! I love the aliso vids. Hope for more to come. You deserve more subscribers.
Thanks! 👊🏾😃
That little Mario sound bite at every fist bump is awesome!!! #shredon!!!
👊🏾😆
Great vid again man, and totally dig your narration, as always.
Thanks! 🎙
I know right. He’s great at it.
Excellent job Katy, way to crush it!
Yew!
Great job Katy! That’s what it’s all about. Yew!! 🤘🏼🤙🏼
Yew! 🤘🏾
It's been so long since I've ridden Aliso, I used to all the time and love those trails. Nice to see the redemption on car-wreck! Love the manual practice on the ridge!
Hee hee! Glad you dug all that.
Aliso is a good time!
Right on Katy! That last section on car wreck is pretty chunky and she handled it with ease!
Yew! I'll pass on the message.
She handled it!
Nice riding guys...Katy's progression is awesome.... Bronson looking solid thru the chunk...🤟🏽
Yew! Thanks! No longer the Bronson. Nomad. ;)
Cool walkthru redemption, good job!🤟🏻😎🤙🏻
Thanks Don! 🤘🏾
Brilliant.... as usual.... keep up great content .... Look forward to next video Alan
Thanks James! Will do.
We watch ure channel aswell as others .... but it’s really refreshing to do a different side to mountain bike videos.... rather than just down hill jumping and videos about bike tech etc
U show the real riding we like to do ...... ure channel is great and I tell a lot of people about it here in England ....... again keep up gd work Alan
@@jimmygrimshaw3318 Thanks for the kind words. It's nice to hear. I do like to show the human stories in our awesome sport. My hope is to encourage people to come as you are and take part in the stoke!
A couple of things. By how her GoPro was pointed on this video she was not looking at the spot where she crashed. I seem to think that she was looking at where she crashed when she crashed. So obviously she took her attention off the bad thing and just kept looking where she wanted to go. The second thing is one of the first things my coach taught me is how to stay loose on the bike and how your arms and legs absorb shock as the bike moves underneath you. And if you keep heavy pedals, meaning you're waiting your petals you can keep your center of gravity more where it belongs. I find this exceptionally helpful in sticky spots especially since I got a 29er full suspension which makes it much easier to stay in the middle of the bike. Katie was much more relaxed on this whole tour of your ride. The breaking advice you gave is very crucial.
👍🏾
It's weird how that section on Car Wreck basically from the crashed car to the switchback, can almost be even more squirrelly and sketchy than the jagged rock garden beforehand. Many crashes, like Katy's, seem to happen there. I've crashed there too and it was a faceplant as well, though on a different rock! Anyway, redemption is always sweet. Nicely done. A lot of people seem to turn off the camera at the switchback. Trail is not "officially cleaned" until the final root/rock stream crossing which can also be a little janky sonofagun. ;-)
Totally. I got hung up in the same section the very first time I rode there. Do you remember when there was an awkward drop down by where the car door is? That was fun. LOL!
And yes! Nothing like a redemption ride. 👊🏾
Lol I've tried hacking up a bug for hours after it got into my throat. Fun video
Hahaha! The worst...but for this, the best ending. LOL!
@@mtb_alan lol definitely
I dig your videos! They are very helpful and informative.
Thanks! Glad to help. 👊🏾
Those tips you gave katy really work! My friend went OTB yesterday on a really steep rocky section after panicking and grabbing the front brake. Luckily he is ok!
Glad your buddy is OK. Yeah, braking can be counterintuitive...until it’s not. 😆
I Hiked that trail several years ago (Car Wreck), WISHING I had my bike to rail it. Funny story though, we made a wrong turn coming back out somehow, and ended up trespassing through a gated community to get back to the car.... lol.
Oh dang!
Glad she cleared it....both the trail and her mouth lol 🤜🏽🤙🏽
😆
Good job Katty 🤘
Yew! 🤘🏾
Congrats Katy!!!
Another great video Alan!
Thanks Kris!
I'll pass along the message. 👊🏾
@@mtb_alan thanks bud. I bet you guys are a blast to ride with.
Just a couple goons. 😆
@@mtb_alan lol same same
Extra medium, hilarious. Props Katy, laters rock. Crewliciously rad day!
😆 Good day!
Dude! So funny. I was just telling Katy that we need to bring “-liscious” back.
Hey Allan great vid
Thanks Teedy.
Man. I love rockit. That slab rock thing can get you you’re not paying attention !!
You said it!
My face hurts just watching the crash
Good thing she had a full-face on. :)
Go Katy!
Yew!
"moments like this..." hahahahaha
🤣
Katy was definitely smoother the 2nd time around. Definitely less tense.
💯
Yewww nice riding Alan! Also do you like the AXS Shifting compared to the regular stuff?
Thanks Dylan!
I do like the AXS Shifting. It's snappy, I can shift under load, and it's never out of tune.
I just got the ~$20 upgrade to replace the shifter "rocker" with a more the traditional paddle style. The rocker idea is cool, but it ends up feeling a bit unnatural.
Can’t wait to test out the al dente technique at skypark today 🤔
😆 🍜
Looks fun
Yew!
When you’re riding a trail with some flow and chunk, what sort of air pressure adjustment do you make to your tires, if any? Or, do you tend to ride the same pressures most of the time?
I pretty much run the same pressure all the time. I prefer predictability.
The only time I switch is for the bike park, and then I maybe run 2psi more in both tires to have better rolling speed and to handle the quick hits when we're cooking.
All that being said, I think if I were up in the PNW, I might run lower PSI in my tires.
Great video as always Alan. One question, where did you get that blue SC cap from? :)
Thanks!
I have that blue one and a black trucker one. One of them I won and the other, I think my buddy from SC gave to me. I can't remember which is which. LOL!
@@mtb_alan thank you for taking the time to reply to me. 😊 maybe one day I’ll find a blue one like yours. Keep up with your great videos, I always look forward to it.
@@msu1996 👊🏾
She’s a trooper.
💯
This is rad, I would want redemption too if I crashed. 😂
😆🤘🏾
Been trying you're new technique and it seems to help but feel like if a rock sneaks up on me I'm going over the bars for sure. A couple close calls last weekend in annadel state park home of many rock gardens.
Yikes. Make sure you’re still centered on the bike and keeping the weight behind the pedals by engaging your posterior chain (butt and hamstrings). This is actually why everyone says to drop your heels.
Also check to see if you’re inadvertently transferring more weight onto your bars when you’re leas crouched.
Hope that helps!
Hey Alan - Love the videos. I'm headed down to SoCal from the Pacific NW in late June to ride with a buddy of mine. I'll be staying in Huntington Beach and was wondering - What are the must-do trails in Southern California?
A bit of background.... I'm a pretty solid blue to black rider up here in the PNW. I'd say I'm mostly an XC rider (earn your turns) but love some great flowy downhill. For reference I ride a 2020 Tall Boy
Nice! Thanks for reaching out and for giving me some details. :)
Not sure how many days you have, so here's a few suggestions in order of preference.
ALISO
You'll be pretty close to Aliso which will give you the classic SoCal experience. If you haven't seen my trail guide for Aliso, it's a nice introduction to those trails and shows parking, etc.. ruclips.net/video/wSkpl3yH1gw/видео.html
It's a guide to all the trails shown in this vid.
It's pretty chunky and sometimes steep but still has some flow.
There's also a nice gastro pub nearby we like to go to called Laguna Beach Beer Company.
BIKE PARKS
I want to suggest Snow Summit, but depending on what you're into as an XC rider, you might not get as much out of it. That being said, having lift access to the singletrack off the back of the mountain is pretty nice.
ruclips.net/video/iDeankTwEp8/видео.html
Skypark at Santa's Village is a gem, and if you're willing to make the drive up the mountain, you won't be disappointed. Short but well-designed trails, cooler temps, good beer and food at the bottom of the trails, and just good energy all around. It's really easy to spend a whole day up there getting laps, taking breaks in the village, and getting more laps.
ruclips.net/video/SVeco_K5PZM/видео.html
OTHERS
Santiago Oaks is another classic SoCal trail system. It can be tough in the heat as there's zero shade, but it has a nice collection of trails ranging from mellow contour trails to steep and dusty rock waterfalls.
The Luge is another classic but it's kind of a one lap deal. Good to do if you wanna hit it in the morning and then something else after lunch.
Hope that helps!
@@mtb_alan Thanks Alan - I really appreciate the detailed reply! Skypark sounds like a blast and I'll definitely work it into the plan. I haven't rode a bikepark before so it will be great to check out that scene.
@@BillZdiving 👊🏾
Ya Katy way to get it 🤙🏼
Yew! 🤘🏾
I'll send along your message!
The rock disliked this video.
😆
Did Tony touch your lens with pepperoni fingers
😆 👉🏾🥫
Is Allen's lens kinda foggy or is that the 4/20 hangover?? ;)
😆 Sorry for the smudge lens. But who's "Allen"?
@@mtb_alan hahaha sorry ALAN, that was definitely the 420 hangover 🤦🏽♂️
LOL! Happens all the time.
Can someone post the address for these trails? Please and thank you 🤟🏼🤙🏼
Check my trail guide. 👍🏾 ruclips.net/video/wSkpl3yH1gw/видео.html
@@mtb_alan Thanks 🤙🏼
Still, your bike colour looks like a watermelon :). SO COOL :DDD
Hee hee...that's why it's called "The HARD Melon". 🤘🏾
Great video! Lovin' the channel!
Have you heard of the channel Joy of Bike? They have some amazing technique videos with LeeLikesBikes. Row Anti-row It's the flow of just about every jump, hop, etc on the trail.
Thanks!
Yup...I know the channel.
Lee has gotten creative with terminology around what is standard knowledge in every other athletic pursuit. It's good that he's sharing that knowledge in the mtb space.
