Riding a Mountain Bike Down Hills in Loja Ecuador

Here are two different descents in Loja. One is very long and scenic, the other is insanely steep and short. I'm riding my 29er mountain bike in this video. I left the music out as it keeps getting flagged as copyright even though I purchased it for use on RUclips from Icons8. So, what do you think, do you like these bike videos with or without music?
This video is for people who like to ride bikes. If you don't ride bikes you might think this is boring. If you do ride bikes and want to ride bikes in Loja then you might enjoy this video of me riding my mountain bike down some fun hills.
A note to the people who worry I'll get hurt: That's very kind of you and I appreciate it. But, I'll be ok. I'm an extremely experienced cyclist and I am sure I'm paying far more attention to what's happening around me than all these crazy drivers here who are cruising along next to me and texting...:) Now that I'm used to the almost total lack of road rules observed by drivers here I know what drivers are going to do before they do. I'll be ok, but thanks again. You're awesome.
I hope you enjoy this video. If you do and you want to buy me a coffee I would absolutely love that! You can do that at this link here:

I like it when you have music. I like when you talk to us like we are in the same room.

[@Alvey_en_Ecuador]

OK. Good to know. Thank you! Cheers mate!

[@jeanniebennett3708]

Alveys---going through withdrawals..need more videos. Just bought you some beer. As Detective Inspector Morse says, " I think better with a glass a beer," I hope beer will inspire you. Love your stuff!!!

[@Alvey_en_Ecuador]

Thank you SO much Jeannie! You are a legend. Yum, I will drink those beers immediately :) I have more videos coming soon! Cheers mate!

Awesome down hill bike ride. Id have to pay someone to bring me up the hill though lol.

[@Alvey_en_Ecuador]

Haha, cheers!

If I were to get a bike in Ecuador it would definitely have a fat tire and an electric motor. I'll be there in less than four weeks.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! I had my foot on the brake all the way down those steep hills! Love it - "Steeper than the decline in critical thinking in the US." Sadly, that's pretty steep,

[@Alvey_en_Ecuador]

Hahaha! I'm glad you enjoyed that. Cheers mate!

[@jerrygarcia4390]

Thanks Alveys. Would a fat tire bicycle do better on an Ecuadorian beach???

[@Gabyenelplaneta]

🫢 that was scary

[@johnneycoon7808]

Wow, that was one scary ride! You are so right about the decline of critical thinking in the US. It is evident on a daily basis, sad but true. Were you going as fast as it looked? If so, I’d say you are a daredevil for sure.

The music I would leave to you . . I think I pay more attention without it . . with the music playing I tend to zone out and listen to the music. Without I'm more present and noticing the neighborhoods etc

[@Alvey_en_Ecuador]

OK, good feedback. Thank you. I appreciate that. :) cheers!

[@TheTrillionDollarTradeMovie]

And it is nice without music to be able to hear the neighbourhood sounds, thanks

"Steeper than the decline of critical thinking in the USA." That is steep. I bet your brakes were smoking on that last downhill.
