Wesley Alth he also rode 7 Branches Rd into Warm Springs, and Nebula Road into to Manchester. What was/were the road(s) out of Pine Mountain and the dirt roads between Woodland and Pine Mountain? My brother lives in Manchester and I’m always looking for rides in the area.
Jeromie Spoken73 I have only ever ridden my road bike there and have only done around and up the mountain itself. My plan for next time is to actually kinda do what he did or do more climbs up the mountain.
AHHH Man! You didn't stop for those boiled peanuts. I'm sure your Ausie pals would enjoy seeing that. Great video. It makes me home sick. I lived in central Florida my whole life, now I live in the mid-west
Nothing personal, I'm riding solo during the Covid pandemic. Hopefully in the future if this mess ever clears up? I really enjoy the Pine Mountain area.
No doctoring of the video, I have a good amount of experience riding this terrain, particularly descending. With that said, there are riders who are far faster than I descending!
Nice video jom how did that lefty hold up and remember going through that water momentum can be your friend then again sometimes it can be your enemy .
Hi Bob, the Lefty is handy on tricky descents... I will cover that more in the review. I'm always careful of water crossings. I've seen far too many people destroy wheels, flat their tyre and so on, because they struck something unpleasant lurking beneath the water's surface.
If I remember correctly from previous videos you don't post links to the routes you ride, but can you share how you research routes? This is area is about 1.5 hours from Atlanta looks like a fun area to check out. How do you find gravel roads?
That’s not a very handsome bike in my opinion, but it looks like it gets the job done well enough. Quick question, I put 300 miles on my new panaracer sk gravelkings 700 38c tires and got a 2 cm slash across the top tread. Have you had luck patching those up from the inside or should a just buy a new tire?
Hello Gabriel... a 2cm slash is going to push the limits of most patches, even if patched from the inside. I've seen tyres form a lumpy bubble at the patch area once they are inflated to any sort of decent pressure. IMHO, I'd fork out for a new tyre. Good luck!
Another awesome little tour of parts most folks will never get to, love it!!
love the mud puddle and bike... very nice ride.. my new bike
The last climb if I remember is called Kings Gap

Not a fan of the boiled peanuts, but now that you've mentioned that, I should probably indulge for amusement sake :)
Our backyard wish we could’ve gotten a ride in!

Is the gravel portion of the ride video, sped up ?

awesome Video Jason, your livin da dream brother!!! Thanks for the video makes wanna take my MCR out there on a long weekend trip :)
The MCR would SMASH on the descents! Honestly, I wish I had one in my collection for those gnarly gravel rides I do on occasion.
which would you ride more often, the 2021 diverge or this Topstone lefty
Being a reviewer, I try and ride all review bikes equally.
@@GravelCyclist sure but having ridden both bikes if you were to ride dirty kanza which one would you take?
Sorry, you need to make your own decision with bike selection. I review the bikes, I cannot make decisions for people watching my reviews.
can i fit a 2x GRX crank? i heard the BB is quite wide and the 1x chainring is offset by 6mm?
You can fit a 2x GRX crank... there is definitely 6mm of offset on the rear wheel in terms of wheel dishing.
very nice model 😁👍
Jom can you share GPX files of some of these rides?
