    Lots of discussion about the rider in the way in this vid, so I would like to channel it here in this comment feed to maintain the convo. Keep in mind the rider also had headphones in and I did manage to stop. Hearing a lot about me riding out of control, but that's not the case. There was no crash. The way I look at this is I don't merge onto the freeway blasting Metallica looking straight ahead and just think it's there problem... Common sense says we look before crossing anything: road, freeway, trail, whatevs. But I love a debate and know my opinion is just that; my opinion. And I respect all of yours. So, thanks for caring and tuning in. - Tony

    • @frank8907
      @frank8907 4 года назад +4

      You may not merge onto the free way listening to Metallica and not checking traffic but others do which is why people crash often. If you were on the free way going the posted speed limit on the far right lane (slow lane) and you see another vehicle merging onto the free way would you drive straight into him because you technically have the right of way? or would you use common sense change lanes flip him off for not checking traffic and avoid a near miss collision, or in your case not move and almost ride into him either way relax. This is a public trail people will always be in your space and not look out for other riders. use common sense and assume others do not see or in your case hear you.

    Don't be that guy! For me, the main trail issue is hikers wearing earbuds so they that can't hear anything. Bikers use bells on our local trails (Santa Barbara), and almost all the time everyone gets along. Most hikers thank me for the bell, and I always slow down to pass groups or dogs that don't know the trail etiquette. But several times I've come up behind hikers or joggers with earbuds, and no bell gets their attention. So I have to come up carefully alongside until they see me out of the corner of their eye. Most are friendly about it, but I think it's a dangerous practice on a multi-use trail, easily rectified with "open air" earbuds.

    I did this exact route today after I saw you do it. On Car Wreck, there was a hiker standing still in the middle of the steep section, talking on his cellphone, facing downhill, not paying any attention. I had to yell multiple times at him as I was coming down, and thankfully he got out of the way in time. Had I not seen this video, I might not have yelled as soon or as loudly as I did, now knowing that people don't pay as much attention as you think or can't hear as well as you might think. Could have ended very differently. Thanks for posting about this, it's a good lesson for everyone to see.

    So I’ve been on and off the bike for many years. Early on it was cross training for motocross. Raced road bike criteriums as a sprinter for a few years here in So Cal. Got back on a Hardtail beginning of August , sold and bought a used slash a month ago, freakin love it. ( there’s a point coming here)
    Building confidence up slowly at different trails in crystal cove etc, Floop, double loops at whiting blah blah.
    Watched your video several times on Rock it, lynx, car wreck etc..
    today was that day,
    Rock it 🤙, back up was looking for Lynx, missed it and pushed on to car wreck.
    First off that chute is gnarly. But today was littered with hikers at 9 am and that is super dangerous (as you know)
    My first issue was right after the fence that goes left and then in to the right hand drop.
    Two girls just froze in the middle ( no where to stop , no where to go OTB #1 ☹️
    Regain my shit and realize my dropper post cable snapped 💥 send it down another 50 yards slight bling veer left , a group hiking up with kids, they freeze in the safe line ( for me) lean back and point it right, nope too steep and wicked , OTB #2 about 5 yards off the edge , gashed shin on a rock 2 inches long and a heavy bleeder. 🤬🤬🤬 squeezed it closed and wrapped with tape. Walked down the last 30 yards to a family picnic just beyond the car.
    Limped my way out the rest of the way and climbed back out . 3 butterfly to keep it closed ( not visiting a doctor right now with Covid happening if I can avoid) . Confidence on that run will be shot for a minute.
    Point is too many people out there right now with disregard for what it is. I’ll be back with reservations, but I’ll be back.
    People shouldn’t be on those trails without 100% presence..
    Lastly why the hell would anyone want to hike up that freaking trail !!!
    Peace 💪💥🇺🇸🤙 thanks for the videos!! They’re inspiring.
    Ps 55 yrs old next month , never stop pushing it !!

    Excellent video. Unfortunately there is always the chance there will be a trail obstruction at the worst possible time and bailing will be painful but better than colliding with them. I find dogs off leash and groups of new hikers with kids to be the worst (Oaks on a weekend). They always will have someone jump in the worst place at the last second or obstruct the entire trail with a large group as they wander around aimlessly. I always use my bell when there are lots of hikers and it helps for the most part.
    Unfortunately not everyone has experience on the trails or uses common sense. I always tell hikers in conversation it is better if you don't move if you get startled than to jump at the the last second thinking they are in the way. They have no idea we actually have a great deal of control and can ride past them safely and it is all about moving predictably.

    Wood canyon and Aliso is my home turf, and there are a lot of beginners and families. They just don't know trail rules. I ride with a bell to let hikers and riders know I'm coming and yell quite early and I just expect to brake early and be ready for anything. It's a pretty busy area, esp now a days.

    I go to Laguna/Aliso all the time. My fav trail network. With that said, I avoid Rock it, Car Wreck and Meadow's. I avoid Meadow's because there are way too many hikers and I tend to come to a complete stop on the turns to avoid crashing into someone.

    First thing I tell people when I take them out on a bike always make sure you can hear your surroundings and pay attention. If you fall move out of the way because a rider behind you might not always see you. The guy probably had headphones on and not paying attention glad no one got hurt but could have been a lot worse

    I think riding in control is key in those situations. You were able to stop to avoid a bad crash. You might want to give a more manly yell next time. Sounded a little weak in the video.

    I think I've dealt with it every single time I've gone out since the pandemic happened, lot of new and inexperienced hikers and riders out right now. It's not a complete excuse though, why would sitting or stretching in the middle of a trail/path EVER be a good idea, and without even taking a second to make sure no one is coming., It's really not that hard.

  • @jeffs2031

    This is what I found on Car Wreck.
    "The car wreck is a 1946 Dodge 5-passenger coup. In 1946 they sold for between $1,200-1,700, depending on how fancy you went. Innovations on this 1946 model include electric wipers and replaceable oil filters.
    How did the car get here, in the middle on nowhere? There’s no official answer, but it’s speculated by local historians that it ended up here in the 1960s. At the time, the dirt roads in the hills around Laguna Beach were popular spots for pop-up hippy concerts and hangouts. The likely scenario is that this Dodge was in the hills then and got washed down into the canyon during one of the bigger flash floods caused by heavy rains. That’s the theory, but no one really knows for sure."
