- In this episode Brendan and I head into the woods to tackle a feature which Bren has been working on in secret! A 50 foot canyon hidden deep in the surrey hills. Riding big features on a small bike with a canyon expert. What could possibly go wrong?!
In this episode I'm riding my Focus Jam. Where my body failed my bike did not. It's a 150mm travel bike capable of giant gaps and giant crashes!

Yeah but ya man Vince didn't keep breaking his skeleton every time his lunatic mate took him biking.

I cant tell if olly or benj wrote this, if you havent seen it yet the ride companion podcast has been mega go ahead and watch it. I was really taken back by rob warners episode and it definitely opened my eyes to how my own life sounded so much like his.... apart from being the best commentator to ever live...
Fair play, thats a serious gap well sent by both of you. Can't wait for the next instalment. Heal well Olly
I say "God Damn!" Only thing missing was a cape. Heal fast, Olly. 💯
Thanks for sacrificing your body for content. It was fun to watch, but bummer you got injured. Love the positive vibes!
Hats off to ya Ollie, that was full commitment if ever I've seen it!!! Loving your positive attitude following the accident. Hope you heal up fast!!
That jump is absolutely nuts, Brendog is a maniac 😂 get well soon 👍
get well soon ollie, quite a clean fracture, should be back on the bike on a couple of months for mellow rides, 6months for gnarly trails. Take care brother
Oh Olly Olly Olly, you silly sausage. Heal soon dude, and stay away from that naughty Brendog. He's a bad influence on you. 😂
Hurry up Olly 😂🤣👍
That jump was insane congrats to you both on clearing it get well soon dude. 🤙
LaaaahdaaaMercy! I wish there was a way of putting you two into perspective. I'm going to try : I am now what can best be described as a 'lower intermediate grand veteran'. 54 years old. Started MTB in 200s. No background of BMX or dirt jumping. Learned before RUclips was a thing. Based my expectations and aspirations on still Pics of Rob & Peatey and the the Atherton 'kids'. Maybe getting lucky enough to borrow a 'Kranked' DVD once. I get to the point on my Turner 5 Spot, where I'm happy rolling into Black Runs across the 7 Staines and most of the old Welsh trails. But jumping is still hard to come by and there is no hint of a sculpted transition anywhere. All jumps in my world are still based on Eval Kineval .... BPW arrives, things change. Twisted Oaks arrives and things change fast for me. Short course learning. Repeat jumping and Berming. Great. In my head I'm now amazing. I see images of the Surrey Hills on RUclips, I watch Bren & Olly regularly, I watch Sam Reynolds and Bernard K (sometimes I even watch Deaks 😉) . My mind goes soft. I start to accept that this riding is just ... riding? I compare my local trails and features in real life to the RUclips world... It does start to feel a bit weird when I show people clips of me doing something that took a year to learn and get the courage to do, like a 12ft gap with 5ft take off and landing ramps... and people are like mmmmmeh. I watch Sam Pilgrim and I saw some Rampage reels. 😶🌫Ok then. Before xmas, I went down to the Surrey Hills and rode some of the natural stuff and saw some of the tamer features. I followed some experienced Grand Veteran locals..... FFFFFFSSSSSS!! It's ridiculous. Just riding down some if this stuff is more technically demanding that anything other than a modern Bike Park Black run. And most of that extreme grading is based on features not the the natural tech!! Olly & Bren are hitting insane features AFTER riding down this insane natural terrain. For breakfast. At one point I considered suing GoPro & RUclips for misinformation and putting my life at risk by making me think this stuff is actually achievable. It's not. Riding their lines is akin to trying play your local pub football team against A premiership side. I am going to find this gap and just sit there for an hour and meditate. Thank you both as always for your wonderfully humble humour and non corporate unamerican content. We all love you. Meanwhile Mr Wilkins, complex B vits, lots of water and your usual positive mindset. Oooohhhmmm!
heyyy there it is. looking forward to this one
MAN! U 2 have some Nads. Wot a gap and 2 flat. Man Olli get well soon dude. Keep up the good work. Peace love and happiness. Russ 🧡
Damn I thought the music sounded familiar, it was in one of Casey Neistat's vlogs as well! Fits the vibe of the video absolutely. Another lovely video Olly wish you a speedy recovery!
This is the first video of yours I've seen. Subscribed 🤘
Ps. Feel better
Healing vibes mate. Fair play to you. To even consider taking that on you’ve got to be world class. That and a bit nuts. Be back on the saddle in no time
Might of punched ya bars . Hence no dirt . Gnarly dude . Hell up brother 🤘
Absolutely love this, proper big balls stuff. Heal fast dude. 🤟🏼🤟🏼
Dude, that was insane 🤯 Get well soon bud!
Love the vid, you boys should get mic'd up. Nicolai Schirmer does it really well in his Ski Videos.
Had a friend snap his collar bone on landing came down so nose heavy, looked over my shoulder to see 6'4" piling into the ground head first, pretty confident it was your landing - just glad you walked away, speedy recovery
Get well soon mate a true hero 😅
"Shall we move some of the shopping Trollies?" You could keep one and make some splints for future 'issues' ... ;) GWS fella! Top blokes you two, always good for a laugh and producing top quality entertainment!!
20 seconds into the intro and I subbed. I know this is going to be awesome 👏👏
Nice one Ollie, went long and cleared it. Great philosophy on life too.
Love your positive energy....good luck with the mend. The gap video of both you and Brendan was insane!
When you jump it again, you know you will, maybe add a click or two more HSR. Seriously huge kudos for jumping it and going further than Bren. Heal fast dude.
I say it was the landing. That bone was right over the end of your bars.
I've broke the left thumb metacarpal landing on the front and trying to pull it back.
Get well soon and cheers from Montreal!
Where would we be without trying things, indeed. Hope you heal quick, Odog. 🤟😎💚
Man that podcast with rob what a guy glad 2 see him on his feet again cudos for red bull and you keep up the great vids.
What a pair of legends!! That’s huge!!
Man… held that nose dive seriously well! I’m deffo buying ‘I’m fine dude’ clothing. Glad you’re okay though Olly lad! 🫡🤟🏼💪🏼
brilliant content,thanks!
So Sick you guys! Love it, but bummed you got hurt. I am literally currently broke off as well from MTB crash. Broke my ankle a few days before Sam Renolds hurt his ankle.
As far as your injuries when I saw Brens vid I immediatly thought it happened on the landing...at least the elbow..and I have broken fingers on bars/brake levers before.
Godspeed in healing to all of us "broke off" shredders! 😁
Gnarly crash Olí, glad your ok after that heavy hit. Almost saved it. Keep up the good spirits! Send it!!!
Heal well brother 🤘🏻 two gaps in one jump is wild, might have to get a focus with some double crowns for sends like that! Absolutely massive!
Sending Healing vibes mate!! huge send !
Respect to you all
Yay. Hope you're getting better quickly
Looks like you done yourself proper buh,all the best for a speedy recovery
Massive send dude. Get well soon.👊🏻
What a pair, what a great educational video and how to ride a focus mountain bike properly 😂🎉
Crazy stunt boys, respect! Get well soon and back on the bike
Duuuude.!! You really are a Legend 🤘🏼
Speedy recovery 🙏🏼
👊👊👊
Keep your head up. your the man. if anyone can keep up with bren its you. ive been wanting to see this footy all week.
Oh man, that was crazy...heal up!
Definitely on first impact dude. Bottomed out. Looked nasty.
Recovering from a crash myself
I had in NZ. Putting me off getting back on the bike now at 40. Trying to get fit sucks.
Rest up dog 👌
Olly: 1) Right elbow when you landed. 2) left 4th metacarpal when you put your hand out just as you stopped after the drop into the little raised ditch-edge thingy.
Healing vibes to you, fair play for taking that gap on after Brendog cased it.
Injury is odd if your gloves were clean, had a similar one with a heavy landing where I burst my finger open
get well soon!
Speedy recovery bud, roll on the next one :)
But you did it!!! You'll do it again.
Huge 🚀 Big features like this make me want a fresh baked slice of British pie....
Man your such a hero. Get well soon!
Salute to you Olly! This is your passion and love your vibes and will power always love this video though & peace & Luv to you & all around the 🌎 ☮️💙
Good effort Olly, keep up the positive vibes, come cack stronger.
That Focus Jam sure is strong 💪
Bro that was wild, huge respect
Get well soon, dude
Props Buddy 👊
Looks like you try to manual this tree...
Can't wait to See this vid 😅👍
Rest up king!! Was a mad crash! Good positive attitude g🙏🏽
Get well soon Olly ! That was a proper send 😂
Ahh. Man. Wishing a speedy recovery dude
God sake Olly, you disrupted them leaves 🤣🤣🤣
Heal up good dude! 💪
That was a really heavy, nose-heavy landing, so I'm not shocked if that's what broke your bones. Glad you're in good spirits about it!
The impact of the OTB crash down the gully is what broke the bones, def not the impact from the nose heavy landing
Know your pain. Snapped my middle finger clean in half yesterday riding my motorbike in the woods 😟
Heal up brother! Keep busy and stay positive. What an amazing send!! Robot arms for the win 😂
You two are brilliantly insane. Heal up soon! I reckon you two should extend that line down the bit you crashed into. That would be epic. I have nearly died several times hefting my eeb over that janky stile 😂
That was savage. In my entirely unqualified armchair medical opinion, I reckon you broke the metacarpal on the landing.
Unlucky Bud . Mad respect for sending that gap . Heal up fast
Ollie puts helmet on to go to hospital haha legend, cheers 4 sharing sir.
Oh jeez, get well soon champ!
Oh, no!!! I wasn’t expecting that at all. That was a massive gap. Tip of the hat to the legend OW! Full Send!!!!! To say the least.
Will you be involve in “Cerro Abajo” this year?
bloody hell olly glad it's not worse. that was crazy lol, healing vibes
I can’t believe what you do on a Jam! I can’t help but wonder how it would have gone on the Sam…. Looking forward to seeing you back to 100%
Great to see the comradery between you two before and after the jump. Your lad science is quite impressive too.
I`m no expert on jumps, but to me it looks like the second impact is much worse than the first one. On the first one you still manage to roll it out, get some of the impact to the rear wheel. On the second impact you land really front heavy and seem to stop right in that spot. So all the force goes through your hands and arms, and you also hit the ground quite hard, sideways in a weird angle.
I hope you recover well Olly, glad the rest of you is fine. All the best and thanks for all your great content, podcasts etc.
faaaack that's madness. get well and come back for it in the spring!
Ooft. That's a heavy one dude! Glad you're relatively OK. 6 weeks will fly by. When does the "I'm fine Dude" merch drop? 🦂🦂
Glad you are good brotha. Balls of steal for even hitting it
Yup been there with the elbow dude. Hope for a speedy recovery.
Big fat hairy balls of steel. 🤜🏼🤛🏼
heal up homie! keep on tryin rad stuff and livin life!
Fooking ledge 🤘🏻
Positive vibes bro.. that was sick.. use your time to scout your rampage challenge 😜😜
When it looks huge even on the video then can imagine home massive it was in real!!!! You crazy madman!!!! 🤣🤩
respect the send
Respect 🙏
Well done Olly. Mend quick
Get well soon dude! Currently rehabbing a partially torn ACL after skiing, itching for more adventure 🤙🏼
Get well soon! 👊
Accidents happen when you're playing bikes in the woods with your best mates but you had fun doing it and imagine what rampage gap challenge 2 would be like if that was episode no1 😂
Fair play mate, I watched the whole thing in amazement and then it skipped to the next video 😔. I felt like I had to go back and comment and like, just because. Great watch! You lads 🤟
Thanks bro!
sending healing vibes!! fricking mindblowing. glad you're in one piece. coulda been way worse, i suppose.
2 takeaway's. 1. Ollie's general approach to life appears to be the one.
2. Brendog is a hilarious level of unhinged.
Legend 🤟🤟🤟
The wait is over, get well soon dude.
Love Brendog" Olli are u in one piece are u in one piece 😂😅😜🤪🧡
AH Olly. I broke my 5th Metacarpal off a car wing mirror all those years ago on the very first ride of the DMR Trailstar. It's rubbish getting injured. The nurse at X-ray did that Oooofph noise and face.😄. Quite likely it was the heavy impact. Heard the story on The Ride Companion. Get well soon and at least you have your athletic Greens to help. I agree with @philipb31 there does indeed need to be a " I'm fine dude" range. Get well soon.
Speedy recovery buddy
