Had to go back and ride it again after watching your vid, Country Rock is crazy, the rock feature after the switchback and the drop 😮 What size tires you running on your hard tail?? Thanks!
@@Kevin-q7j After riding it a few times now, I like to grab some front brake and nose wheelie into the rock switchback. Sets you up really nice for the angle into the rocks. I’m currently riding some prototype Teravail tires that are 29x2.5 I like 2.5-2.6 and usually run trail inserts.
@@ApexArchery Great trail system for likes of different rides. Hardtail is typically my ride of choice, no matter the trail. How was it climbing on your bike? Seems like it’s a good grade and easy enough with a big bike that you’ll still have plenty of juice left to feel good hitting everything on the downs.
@@mheald111 Do it! Worth the trip. Easy enough to loop a few ways for multiple laps. Trail speed and visibility is good for most of the hits. Most of the wood bridges and drops you’ll need more speed than you think. The step ups on the lower section are forgiving and is easy to carry speed into to boost them. Enjoy.
@@facelessbot963 The wood drop on ghost town was pretty sketchy blind and was certainly bigger than I thought it was going to be. And more speed was needed for the wood bridge. Had to push my bike forward which is why the camera got knocked off angle on the landing. Most of the trail is build with enough sight lines to have an idea of what’s coming. And is built in a way that a good quick trail speed is the right speed for most of the features. Half the fun is figuring it out as you go.
@@markf4968 Thank you. Climb is good. Mellow great. Which means it meanders a bit and is good for bigger bikes or climbing with a full face. Would be good on a SS. Switch backs are normal tight radius but not steep. Overall a well built trail system. Can loop back to the top at several spots on the down. Not a shuttle ride at the moment. I believe there are plans for a cable car.
Nice job hitting all of TECTONIC and sick riding! You ripped it up good. Something is up with your video cam has a grey dot that moves around. Not sure that that was?
@@BOOSTEDDUDE Thanks dude. That first drop/gap is just enough farther than it seems. The rest was easy to spot a line without checking the trail out ahead of time. Sorry about the dot. I set the camera down on the ride before this one and it just rolled over and scratched the max lens. It’s hard to see on the phone preview. But very noticeable on the big screen.
You are an amazing rider! Thanks for sharing!
@@comanche1111 Thank you Shawn. That is very kind. You are plenty skilled too.
Always great to see what a hardtail can do with the right pilot. Great riding and great video. Thanks for the tour!
@@Kevin-q7j Thank you. Hardtails are great tools to have. And usually my bike of choice. There are lots of great options these days too.

Wow. I have ridden that four times (and helped build the entrance to tectonic while vacationing in CO) and your speed and control is impressive. Nice!
@@tcmoller Thank you. I enjoy riding as fast as possible on the limit of traction and control. That section of trail is a great mix of tech and speed.
impressive riding. making some of those features look way smaller than they are in real life
This looks soooo good. I can't wait to get on this!
I rode that the other day on my full 170/170 bike. You shredded it on a hardtail! Nice riding, nice video.

@@nichandy Yep! I wasn't in a particular hurry, and it took about 55 mins or so to knock out the climb.
Fantastic run. I’m in the FoCo area and want to ride this so bad.

Thanks for using a hardtail. I use one and get overwhelmed at DH trails when everyone is using full suspension and I feel left out. Great video!
@@cobikaza9529 Hardtails are so much fun everywhere. This trail system is great for it too… as long as you don’t come up short on anything.
Bro is sending it for a blind run!

Dang looks like a good time!
@@DevonKing07 You would enjoy it. Come on out, you can ride the dually.
@@nichandy Soon! I hope haha
Great video. Looks like a blast. How is the climb? Can you shuttle?
