Good you had a guide to help you through these unmarked trails and to help with confidence ..looks like super fun....hope you get another MTB back in your stable soon...great to have the option to ride both to open up more terrain for you to explore..nice traditional music.
George! I never knew how much I was missing out on until the Rise/Kemen. It really opened my eyes…I wonder if the exploration side of things is ultimately what I love best, which is best done with an mtb…? .but next up is Orbea’s top of the line Orca, same model as Lotto Dstny get! will need to work on my quads for that 53/39 chainring! should arrive tomorrow…
Great seeing you on a EMtb, my kinda bike, as im still learning on my Specialized which i got in the middle of winter in Sweden, but soon, very soon weather here will go more dry and sunny! Im trying to think of a good song to request, and on a sunny day riding downhill this would be it "Air by Jesse Cook" Thanks for a great video, just wanted it to have been a bit longer🤪🤩
NOW he tells me! I really struggle with video length. I’ve been told so many times that I won’t grow the channel unless I keep vids to 8 minutes max, preferably 5, so I chopped this one up, which is a pity as the mountains were so beautiful! Even my wife, who is not a great fan, said she wished there was more footage. Oh well! Which Specialized do you have? Wishing you a long, dry summer, and off to check that song! Thanks Stefan!
@@yakoridesagain I guesse you could also try out the YT shorts for quicker content, pick out the little great snippets and make "shorts" I mean, i watch shorts too, but im not a creator in any way, but hey, why not give it a go😄 I like your longer content though, so, hmmm I dunno:) I bought a "Specialised levo comp", it was a brand new 2022 model but at a super reduced price, its a great bike and im getting more and more familiar with it, but need the better weather to ride it fully, where it shines. Mostly been gravel, dirt and some forest, but nothing steep yet :)
I have tried chopping up a long vid into a short, but you miss so much as I shoot in landscape and shorts are in portrait. I also did two silly ones for fun (take a look on my channel page). Keep meaning to do more, and the new camera has a vertical mount so I can shoot in portrait…I’ll probably give it another try. Nice bike! Powerful…a real go anywhere beast. Jealous!

Excellent off road ride on a fantastic trail.with a very knowledgeable guide Probably not a trail to use the Gain, have a fantastic weekend
Many thanks Terry - no, much of it would have been very uncomfortable on the Gain - and I would have had to push a lot too! Same to you sir!
Glad you enjoyed the ride. Pete says her name is Kim and she’s a H10! 😉😁
Oh no! Sorry I got it wrong - it was a bad guess! I hope Kim forgives me….Pete too…😃
Great fun living the life.
Thanks Martin. I do feel we’ve done the same, you and I. Best of luck, @jura_cycling!
Agree 😊 2 weeks until our grand depart taking the go pro, going to try some commentary. Not got you confidence. 😅
Mountain (bike) Goat Yako! ~marmot

New camera makes for good footage bud 🙂
Cheers mate. Just wish I had the capacity at home to go to HD but I do everything on a 5 yr old tablet that is already choc-full!
@@yakoridesagain Well it looks good for it bud 🙂
