Massive thanks to Mountain Bike Quebec and Quebec City for sponsoring this trip and video!
It's time for the epic grand finale of my Quebec City MTB Adventure, and I can't think of a more fitting place than the famously gnarly Mont Sainte Anne. As I mention in this video, MSA got hit particularly hard by the heavy rain in the last few weeks, so for my visit there were a whopping 3 trails open: a green, a black diamond and a double black! Wish me luck... ]

When it looks pretty steep on camera, you know it is super steep in person.
bike bouldering
No doubt
I watched Frank ride this section with Remy Metallier and they ride it like it's a blue tech trail - insane! Kudos to you Alex, that is some tough sh*t man - nice riding!
Dude right!? I saw that too and it really puts it into perspective just how god those guys are
The entire Quebec series was just a blast, Alex!!
I was especially laughing my face off in this video since I know those trails and I know it's a miracle each time we come out in one peace!!! Cheers, and you are welcome anytime here in Quebec!!
I come in peace, but I leave in pieces!
Was bedridden for almost a year due to long covid and lived vicariously through your videos. Thank you.
🙌🤘
"We're doing alright guys".....Don't worry the worst is yet to come aha...That Greg Minnaar section and the following chute on the slab to the north shore bridge took me years to nail. The 1837 is one of our DH gem in Quebec, you did great brother
it's not about the best or worst, it's about having the most fun.
Bro, this trip was so awesome!!! Thanks for showing us some amazing trails we had no clue existed. Sounds like our next trip across the border will be straight north 😎
Happy to see that you liked our beloved city and MTB trail.
Next time bring an ebike for VBN, E47 and SDM. You will be able to do so much more 😉
Great series. Before this series Quebec was barely on my radar but being in the northeast US I definitely will be making the trip now. Excellent riding and all the food looked amazing.
Must remember Frank is on an extreme modern downhill bike with lots of travel while Alex is on a older trail bike so basically with Alex's handicap was right with Frank on the double blacks and may have had a slight edge . Like comparing a hardtails handicap to a full suspension trail bike
When the single track sampler posts a video (or Skills With Phil) It makes me want to ride. 💙
Dude, I loved this series. I cant wait to see you do a UK trip.
Also note besides the bike, that Frank goes full face and chest protector. I never understood the pushback on safety gear, but nobody get's hurt without and says "yeah, totally worth it".
Mount sainte-anne was one of the first parks i ever got to ride. Lets just say as a newer rider at the time, it was a very very rude awakening into how poor my skill level actually was, it was just so much harder and beyond steeper then anything in any of the other eastern provinces
I love your videos! I started riding single tract in the Appalachian Mountains back in 1977 on a touring bike. I rode from there to Hawaii then back to California where I started mountain biking in Tahoe in 1985 and have done it nearly everyday since. The trails in the Sierra are sometimes rocky but mostly rideable, few roots, mostly long smooth single track. But I recently started riding outside of Santa Barbara and I was shocked to find trails at lower elevations that I just can’t ride! Some more difficult than trails I’ve ridden in Colorado, Alaska and Jasper, many roots and many rocks, steep and twisted! Hale on! Pura Vida!
I’ve always wondered who I could keep up with You, Seth, Brian, BoBo or Kevin. I think y’all all have y’all pros and cons but you just declared you have the biggest ⚾️⚾️. Congrats to you for this sick 💩!!
Frank! Oh my was he sick. Nice work man. I had my heart in my mouth with your POV. All the videos from this trip have been amazing
Super fun series! I hope to see more!
Nice and flowy. lol Great one, Alex...that shit was gnarly, you done good! Loved the very end...haha!
Delano is a capable trail bike that can do a lot with a good rider like Alex. Nice riding!
That double black looked like a hangover of pain and effort. Hard to focus that fast and long!. Glad you had fun! Ehhh
if you are ever in Quebec again, i think the 2.5h drive down to Bromont in the Eastern Townships is worthwhile. Bromont has a downhill bike park, some gnarly enduro trails, some flowy blue green for the whole family, and even an indoor velodrome, a BMX track, dirt jumps, and trick booter etc! also currently in the process of building an indoor skatepark kind of deal made specifically for bikes
bromont is 50 mins out of montreal, and about halfway between burke and quebec.
Epic adventure. Thanks for sharing it, Alex. Massive shoutout to Nick too :D
Having ridden all this before many times i can vouch and say this stuff looks at least 3 times as ez on camera. The gopro effect is real and huge here!
Ah La Bête! So intimidating.Well done, this ain't easy!
Those trails are not joke. Good job homie, and Frank is a beast. I like to see him ride with Remy.
Major pucker factor over and over again. You did great and it’s wild to see the Delano handling it all pretty well. 👍👍
Awesome vid, man. Kudos on riding those trails. Get, Seth, Phil, & Brian out next time to ride those amazing trails with ya...
I'm late to this party... but I used to struggle with the trail/DH switch. Finally got a Megatower paired with a V10. I know that's not a practical route for most, but those two bikes allow me to switch back and forth in a dingle day without any hesitation. Ride on!
I hope you continue the destination riding. You've definitely earned some travel to places the Van can't take you. I'm bummed this series is over too man!
Sampler skills engaged, Sampler stoke meter pegged. Big day for Sampler!
"I'm not doing the drop, but I'm riding the section" 💀
Was super fun to have you home Alex! Cheers! Gabe
Awesome video man. Like the one guy said, you inspired me to start riding after many years. And even though I had to sell my bike last year to look after my family, I still watch your videos. Really hoping to get back to riding soon. I really miss it. And you should also come out to Vancouver Island. We have some incredible riding here pretty much year round. Can't wait for your next video
Love this mountain!! Fun fact, Vietnam (yes the whole thing) was actually a stage in an enduro race i recently did
Great riding! You've really come a long ways over the years that I've watched your channel.
That single black looked a lot more managable. xD Can't even imagine what it'd be like trying to get down the double black freak-trail!
Yeah bro!!! That is gnarly!!! You were getting it!!.... Good job man!!!
Crying laughing Alex your bikes got some strange shapes going on 😂
Dude that looked soo jank, but man i get so stoked watching your videoes. Loving the videoes from the Quebec trip
I'm constantly hooting and hollering while I watch your riding vids, Alex. Seriously feeling the stoke, even with the gopro effect. Keep it up big dawg!
in otha wordz…dont follow frank 😆
glad you liked here in quebec Alex theses video were awesome to watch make us love even more what we have here at home in quebec !
Awesome little adventure bro! Thanks!
Great video love the Quebec City series. Would like to see a video of your gear you wear and bring on trips and also your bike set up. If you already have a video like that, that I have missed please let me know
Ive said it before mate this series is your doing is the best mtbing ive seen in years on any channel more power to you
Always an inspiration! Thanks for sharing! ✌🏼🤘🏼
Thanks for all the great videos!
I love this place so much haha, I'm smiling at all of you guys losing your shit riding this stuff, so good !
Awesome dude 🤩🤘🔥
Wow 😳. Most of that place is unrideable with my limited skills. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Sampler, this channel got me into mountain biking. This channel got me into vanlife. Because of you (and maybe Seth) my life is pretty cool. You make this shit look good. Thanks a bunch. If you're ever in the Tucson area, beers are on me.
NOW YOUR LIVING
Love these videos!
Might be one of my favorite sts vids. Awesome stuff
Thank you for showing the bike, been trying to see what bike that was since the start. Looks nice!
Im really happy that u liked riding in Quebec since i live there and you enjoyed mont st anne its my local trail hope you will come back🤘🏻
You know that when a Frenchman calls it a chicken run you‘re gonna walk that section for sure. But then, the next day maybe the Bray comes along and climbs it. They all nuts.
This video is so relatable it’s how I feel when mates take me to a new unsanctioned janky trail 😂 it’s good to do it every now and then 🤣 although yours is a whole new lvl of jank for me hahaha
Wild Wild Wild 🤙🤙🤙
19:23 how the hell does that grip ? It doesn't ... 😂😂😂
i think frank is a litlle bit crazy roots and flowy OK hahaha nice video
Love your vids!
I’m surprised you’ve never traveled with Brian / @BKXC on some of his international bike tours
Great video series !!! 👍🚵🏻❤️
So were you and Brian in QC at the same time? That was some janky stuff on the WC Downhill. Your riding skills have really exploded. Great video.
Awesome series!! Gotta hit up Quebec myself
you're an amazing MTB ambassador !
myself and a couple of buddies are heading up to quebec next weekend but i think we will be skipping Mont Saint Anne.. looks a little too gnarly for us xD sick videos bro! keep doing you!
Not everything at Sainte Anne is as bad as 1837, there's plenty of trails there for riders of all skill levels. Go there and enjoy! MSA was one of the best mountain bike vacations I've ever had.
So Good Great Video !!
@23:10..."I got a lot of bleeping to do in this video"....😂 😂
Even on the gopro footage it looked scary as hell! Let alone in person🫣
Room tour with the room already lived in. A Very sampler style tour.
Bro that was great content from the views to the oh 💩 moments 🙌way to ride that death trap brother
live to ride another day.
LETs GO! awesome place
You should come and check out Durango mesa bike park.
passing on the 200 mm downhil machine because the 130/150 one feels "home" ... many people undersestimate what you can do on a trail or all-mountain bike
I'm tensed up just watching 🙏🙏
🔥🔥🔥
Basically: Heres a rock garden. Ride.
btw Franck called this flowy 😂😂
« 1837 » on an enduro bike is really hard! I did it once and I don’t know if I’ll do it another time…
Dude had 180m of travel on that bike. Made it look easy
Next time you’re in Québec you need to ride at Mont Ste-Marie and Camp Fortune.
awesome Epik vidio lovet
I would imagine that's what it's like trying to keep up with Phil too. That dude is greased lighting on a bike. Dude floats over the rough stuff like it's not even there.
That's exactly what it's like trying to keep up with Phil
Saw a vid of Remy trying to catch up to Phil... Suddenly he just zoomed out. Next section Phil got a flat😆
Does anyone know what rear shock Frank is using?
So crazy how in MTB you can feel like you’ve gotten pretty good at riding, but they’re are so many freaking levels of riders that are just so much better. Like I feel like im a half decent rider and I know Alex is better than me… and then there’s Frank. What a beast
U should come ride the highland rec area in highland Michigan
hah! I was wondering if you and @bkxc were going to bump into each other there
Hey I got a question, whatever happened to that beautiful canyon strive? Bared the north shore and A line, crashed it at berm peak, made a couple vids with it and then poof! And where’s the bike check on the fezzari?! I cant just go off of a quick glance from the e-bike video!! The people need answers!
Loved seeing an un domesticated not groomed trail.
Nice hope brakes
Frank is a real schredder.
He’s it man, he’s the real deal
🙏🙏🙏
Were there issues putting the Keneva battery on a plane?
Didn’t bring it!
I personally would be concerned about the trail ride if my guide who I know is a better rider, showed up in back and chest protector.
Time for a LaSal?
What is the name of double black you did ? I didn't catch it.
Even on camera it looked insanely hard. I am definitely not there yet !!
1837. I've only ridden it twice when I was younger & dumber, I'm not riding it again at my age. It ain't worth the hospital trip.
Niceee
Franck’s bike is gnarly.
It was organized by Quebec City Mountain bike, they invited many youtuber this summer as a publicity stunt to increase MTB tourism in the region.
When you think about it, a week a riding here will cost about 200$ in tickets, but 1500$ in restaurants and lodging. So it really bring money in.
RUclipsrs are a really good way for targeted marketing at a cheap price, while putting smile on their face and the people they encounter that follow them.
@@andresamson8859 what does this have to do with my comment?
@@PlayGamesRideBikes nothing, i responded to the wrong one 😅
32:10 Nicolas Cage is that you?
You know that was Aaron Rodgers right? 🤣😂
