Getting Started on my Backyard Mountain Bike Trails

- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2019
- We've been doing lots of home renovation and improvement projects for the past few weeks, and it has all been in preparation for the main course: The backyard mountain bike trails! Today, we build the Berm Peak Express, a climbing trail that ends at the summit of my property.

The amount of work this guy
does on his own is just insane
Hey, man... give Drama some credit!
In my 2.8 years of watching your videos this is the first time that I see drama actually acting like a dog.
He chased a broom after Seths bike once :D
Hahahahahhahahahhahahahha...
Leviathandk true that was funny
Hahahahahaha yeah
Yes I always remember how long I have been watching a YT-Channel, even decimal places. 🤷♂️
R.I.P Trail Hazer 1000
2019 - 2019
Gone, but not forgotten.
It could live as a Trail Hazer 600 and a scrap piece of the wood trough.
Gotta be honest never expected to see a yaoi paddle on this channel.
F
Haha
Rip
Get stake flags, they are perfect for building and can be taken out later or left in to let the rider know where the trail is
I came to say this, do this instead of paint
Oh and amazon has a great deal on these. I try to support my local businesses as much as possible but when amazon Canada has them for $11.00/100 and my local hardware store has them for $49/100, I’m always going to go for amazon.
Wont it just come out in the rain
Wait so u never seen him chasing a broom?
so i make little paper sticks cause theyll decay if u forget about it
Drama was so excited he even became a Trail Dog!
petition for seth to make his own trail mix
Ovactus seths bike snacks
That would actually be a legitimately good business
BikeMax that's actually a perfect name
SIGNED
Seth’s bike snacks?!??! That’s perfect!
seth i think we need an update on the baby oil in the fat bike.
Yeah.. I'm also waiting for an update.. And I'm also planning to try it 😆.
He mentioned the baby oil 4 videos previous to this one when building the wall rack for all the bikes. The booter bench vid.
CoderShare oh sweet thanks. i guess i missed it
Andrew Gordon its not time yet
It's time now
instead of paint, you could put poles with colored tops in the ground and re-use them for other trails
Smart 👍
I was about to ask how you find time to do all of this by yourself... then I remembered this is your life.. you're living the dream!
2 years later, Berm Peak bike park. 20$ for a ticket
Money well spent!
In Europe it's for free!!
Gotta love Europe hehe

Hey there!! Go check out my dads MTB channel!! @TrailHandMTB
I love when drama is just waddling around like a little penguin rip drama 🥺🥺🥺
The shovel cannon bit killed me lmao
Hey there!! Go check out my dads MTB channel!! @TrailHandMTB
Use flags on little metal spikes, that’s what we use here
Where the hell is "here"
He specifically said he didn’t want to use those.
i think instead of flags, he could just get wooden stakes to paint, or metal stakes with wood on them. That way they're way more weather resistant, while still showing where to go and having the practicability of flags
@Anthony Murphy no because theyre only being used to mark where hes going to make the trail, unless he needs it to permanently mark the trails line. Either eay they wouldn't be any more of a hazard than the trees around em
way*
Seth is living the life. Deservedly so, considering he makes some of the highest quality content on RUclips.
1080p ON TV!!!
Ło
@Ollie Hunt Then you haven't seen "my self reliance'.
Duude!! Thanks for the inspiration! I might build a trail in the woods here in chile and this video is gold for me! Amazing editing job by the way, i almost loose my shit whit the machine gun 🤣🤣🤣 regards from chile!!

Been re-watching the Berm Peak series from top to bottom. Forgot that this all started years ago from nothing. Now the trail system is nearly (or fully) complete. Very inspiring, love watching Seth's had work pay off. Absolutly love this channel. This is the life I want to live.
I have an idea for a trail head:
. Make a big dog house for drama
. Road gap
. Pump track
And a house tree wity ropes to lift up the bikes, so the bears won't eat them? 😍
Get phill to help with the pump track
Anybody else not mountain bike but just enjoy his videos
I'm a freaking roadie.
Can confirm, not a mountain bike
I'm too broke to effort it and i live in the possibly flattest place ever 😂 Love His Videos though
Me
@UCePZqTa3l-KjlN-YIH0tL4w in that case just let me break some of my bones somewhere so i get enough money :'D
Your friend Kevin is hilarious
He has a channel. It's called steady spin.
Or single track sampler
Love the time lapse and justification of the saw. Great idea for our local NICA kids who aren’t allowed to operate chainsaws.
I can hear Drama chewing the curtain in the Voiceover...
What time??
What time
What time
what time
Wat taym?!
Having a trail in your own garden is a dream of many Mtb riders
every mtb rider
Enallane55 ye definitely
It will soon become boring
@@framagni no real mtber would ever get bored of trails in their backyard
@@enallane5538 Maybe it's because I'm lucky enough to have many different trails close to my house (I live in the Swiss Alps)
We gotta get back to building features in the woods!!
What if you made a thing called Creek Pass where it's all the old things like the drama drop and wall ride and Signet table but make the wood look old
Garland Reece isn’t it the sicknic table
Hey there!! Go check out my dads MTB channel! @TrailHandMTB it would mean a lot!
I think you should number your videos to keep us on track with your great progress
Go to his channel, select playlist, and voila, there's the playlist "all videos newest to oldest"
Obed Leyva Wow how didn’t I notice that
@@mrmanikins3255 he literally said it in the video
Oh I guess I skipped that part lol
The shovel cannon had me dead 😂 great editing Seth can’t wait to see more progress I love your new property without a doubt
Omg that was hilarious!!!
Who said that it was edited?
Same I rarely find myself laughing out loud at his videos but this was priceless
Hands down the best part, LOL!!!!!
The amount of coffee Seth consumed during all this work must be enough to flood Berm Peak
Rookies, all you gotta do is drive your New Holland through the woods and the bucket will do most the work for you, that leaves another hand free for a Budweiser as well
Drama is finally a trail dog, I knew he had it in him!
Drama rocks!
Not a trail dog a “this feels like carpet I’ll run” dog
Yeah, Drama's trail dog skills are developing! I'm not sure if Seth wont be the future trail dog in upcoming episodes reflecting dramas learning curve!
My cat watches RUclips with me. She got so excited any time Drama ran past.
You cleared a large area at the trail head... do I sense some sort of shelter/hut in the making?
James Williams I reckon it’s going to be a massive roll in 😂
That’s what I was thinking as well we could call it the seth shack
Seth's Bike Shacks!😂
Lmao I was thinking in my head I Gotta right a comment about this lol he really should
I'm envisioning something similar to "The Hub" at Coler Park in Bentonville. A big platform with multiple roll ins for different trails.
Seth, I don't want to go through 2,500 comments to see if anybody mentioned this already, but we generally use pin flags for trail layout. Reusable, pretty cheap and versatile. Also, great to see Drama being a trail dog!
So looking forward to these trail building videos . . . keep'em coming Seth!!
I can just imagine him crawling under his desk and talking to himself
Astle Truscott Haha same
You should make your own brand of snacks and trail mixes call it Seth’s bike snacks
James Greig that’s a copy of someone else’s comment
whatever its still dope
Yeah copier
How about riding pants. Seths bike slacks.
“We have always been shameless about stealing great ideas” - Steve Jobs
What I have found to work really well for flagging new trails in N.H. is Dig Safe flags. Easy to see the line you are building because they stick into the ground and reusable. They come in varying colors. Pick them up as you go. Easier than surveyors tape. If your mind changed on a route, simply pick them up an re-route. The other tool I like to use is a low powered dirt bike to burn the trail in. I know that is taboo to most Mountain Bikers. (I don't have dozens of friends to come over and ride in the loops). Compacts the earth, exposes roots and rocks and no need to rake the trail. Just compact down all the earth and very low impact to the trail overall. Looking forward to more builds. :)
Thank you so much for posting these. It's such a satisfying experience to see your projects unfold towards a bigger picture. The quality of your story telling and editing is superb.
Who’s else wish Seth could upload everyday
YES!
Me
He probably spends a week on every video at least, so that wouldn't be possible.
Very much!! But I’d rather a good vid once a week than a pos ever day!
Kasper Jonasson thats why he wishes it could happen
1 minute ago from SBH? I’ll watch on my way to school!
On the way? I'm already back
Same right now I'm on the bus
I stayed home because I'm sick
Holidays since 6 weeks but next week it starts again
11 pm where I am
No idea how I just found your channel but thank you for the high-quality entertainment! Im subbed! Gonna go get my first set of MTB footage tomorrow :D
Good for you my man
U could pick up some sticks and paint them a bright colour and mark with them👍🏼
The Endurobarrow needs a waterbottle holder
”That starts today!”
Me:
OmgOmgOmgOmgYeeeees!
you inspired me! just finished my own trail here on my property in Minnesota
I cannot wait to watch Berm Peak unfold. Seth - you do such an amazing blend of information, entertainment and curiosity. I absolutely Love how you DIY things and figure out as you go. I believe it could be called Engineering the way you apply what you know and apply ideas from different avenues of life. I Love Beth's Hike Sacks!
10:00 I really wasn’t expecting that and it kind of scared me😂
Bro same
It was pretty cool tho, replayed it a couple times
That cracked me up laughing.. so unexpected
same
I think the city inspector would frown upon use of a shovel cannon in such close proximity to a dwelling. Lol
Holy shit Welcome Backyard!
YaMz Rider you mean forest
It is amazing to see you build and ride trails Seth! The way you face the challenges that come your way is also inspiring. Keep it coming!
You can use marking flags (not the marking tape used for the property lines, but thin metal rods with a brightly colored "flag" at the top) instead of the paint.
Can’t wait to see the next Berm Peak progression. Endurobarrow V2 is a superb evolution of the best hack on this channel. landscapers and builders around the world would dig this amazing contraption. It’s ingenious
Every new video now I can only imagine you crawling into your sound booth to record the voice over. :D Great work Seth.
I've watched this series of videos many times and it's still one of my favourites on RUclips
Please build some dirt jumps.
; this is how many.
RB I usually don’t like comments. But this one got me like 👍🏻
Seth you never disappoint you got me into mountain biking and a lot of other things I wanted to say thank you
same dude
same
Same
same
Same
Warms my heart to see these videos of such a passion project. And it will all be so sick once it's complete. Can't wait to see all the future videos tracking your progress.
Glad to see Berm Peak coming together. The trail building reminds me of some of my adventures in the Linville area of the NC mountains cutting some trail. Looking forward to seeing more.
I love how i found this channel like 3 weeks ago and dont even mtb but i feel like ive been waiting for this forever
You dont have to even ride. The quality in editing, voice over, camera work is incredible by itself. Hes a great content creator. His older videos are awesome as well
@@zigzach8330 perfectly said
Raymond Jarvis you should start mtb
I do t MTB either, I only came for BMX about this is well fun to watch
I have an idea for the trail head:
- make a sitting area trom dead logs
- a small campfire place
- and there are signs at the strat of each trail
I thought it said from dead dogs, thank God it didn't
@@raihanislam912 lol jesus
@@raihanislam912 LOL, that's what I read too the first time!
Watching Drama chase Seth and Kevin, brings tiers to my eyes.
R.I.P. Drama
Can't wait to see your creativity in action with your new back yard!
Seth : has disc brakes on his wheelbarrow
Me : has rim brakes on my $100 Walmart bike
A G I wonder if they are mechanical or hydraulic 😀
Ah...mechanical. Time for an upgrade.
At least you have a bike.
A G: same here lol
A G lol
Great job Seth. Love it
My kids always want to watch your videos and started building their own trail in our backyard.
Can't wait to see what you're planning on laying out for these trails!
Love the endurobarrow! That things awesome!!
Not being rude, 🤣 but please can you show us how much of the land you own so we have an idea of how big its gonna be or could be. Btw great vid love you seth x
Commenting now so I can look back in years when Berm Peak is way more advanced...
relatable
You can get ground marking stakes that have flags at about any home improvement/hardware store. You stick them in the ground and take them out to reuse them when you're done
Good luck & I can't wait to see all the upcoming Berm Peak trail episodes.
Live in NC and would be more then happy to donate some trail labor. It's looking good. Keep it up 🤘
I wouldn't call it labor when your working with THE Seth bike hacks
same
Hey Seth you should make some north shore features
Hey Seth, What is a north shore feature?
@@ploughmyfield a North shore feature is compromised of wooden planks teeter totters and other challenging features. They originated from the north shore of Vancouver, BC
I watched this a few days ago when it came out and I'm watching it for a second time. I cannot wait to see the rest of this series.
YES SETH! Nothing cooler than your own back yard trails... and this is just mad. I can’t wait to see what you create!
Captain Obvious, Captain Planet & Captain Building Inspector! 😂🤘🏻🚴🏻♂️
How are you making all of this so quickly.
I guess he does not do anything else. You know he quitted his job for you tube.
He makes enough from videos I assume
nothing else to do lol
Well he does upload once a week and doesnt have a job apart from yt
motivation
Nice work Seth!! Looking forward to seeing your new trails.
I'm bingeing all of the Berm peak video's for nostalgia sake.
I still can't belive that it has been more than 2 years.
At 8:10 I love how Seths dog follows behind SOOOOOO CUTE
The shovel cannon part at @10:00 killed me 😂
I've heard that shovels can be very dangerous
Love the shovel cannon.
Love these videos Seth. Theirs just something fun about clearing trails.
Man, Seth you never seem to dissapoint ur viewers
Keep doing what your doing and have a good day
Drama is finally a trail dog (kinda) 😃
I am so amazed. The quality, the effort and the storytelling.
Congrats on making the trending page! I Hope more people will see your channel and continue to make it grow!😋
This is such a cool project! I can't wait to see all the trails and features you build!
Buying the house.
Mrs Bike Hacks = and how many bedrooms.
Seth = good good good, how much hilly land?
Now you need an atv to get around and carry bike up the trails
I don't think he needs anything with training wheels.
@@briancastora769 if those wre training wheels he doesn't need a car too becuse those have training wheels too
Hes not a weenie he rides trails to get to other trails
Congrats you got on trending great job Seth keep it up!
You lucky bastard!! I wouldnlove to have a property so versatile and huuuuge as yours! Kudos to you for reaching this level!
Have your new wheelbarrow come with a hitch for your bike.
Ooo I like this
Thanks, Seth! I'm looking forward to seeing more videos on how these trails progress.
The cordless reciprocating saw is by far my favorite and most used pruning tool ever. Those 9” pruning blades are awesome!
Wow.. very nice trail. Here in Philippines plenty trail but need to develop. Watching almost your videos.. thank you.. you rock 🤘🤘
Hi Seth I am a big fan and I just wanted to thank you for making these videos and for getting me into mountain biking, I have learned a lot from your videos so keep up the good videos
Me
This is so exciting to watch, thanks Seth.
Yuss! Trail building/trail work is so much fun! Feels so good to put down new fresh trail.
I need those loppers btw
This is gonna be the best backyard trails EVER!!!!
*starts eyeing up own backyard*
"...i could make a trail back there..."
doooo itttttttt
Mine is flat, and has one tree. I’ve been thinking about building a platform so you can ride down front eh top of the garage into a few jumps
Educational and fun! Thanks man! I can't wait to keep watching your trails come together!
I can't wait to see how this goes
I always get so exited when a new video comes out!
I'm actually really excited to see how you develop your trails. I hope you know how lucky you are just to be able to actually build trails in your own garden!
