I’m a pretty big wimp when it comes to any kind of adverse conditions on the trail. It usually means I'll be suffering AND I won’t be able to get a video out of the day. I was REALLY concerned when I saw the hazardous wind warning this time around, as the Palm Canyon Epic is 27+ miles with lots of slogs when there’s no headwind. BUT, if the wind was at our back, we could be getting an extra power boost for free. Let’s see what happened!

Always good riding with you Brian! Even in the wind... 😬
Enjoyed watching you guys ride even in the stong wind! It's rides like those that are so memorable!
How high is that dropper go up. lol
Did Brian show you the bbc trail? That's the rock jump line just off the main trail that last for 800m then back on to main trail!
@CJ Johnson absolutely 💯 is and has been there for about 8 months now..you have to ride the whole trail dude. There's a step up of rocks that starts the jump line and is about a 4ft drop that's send af.
When you guys gonna do the Megavalanche race? We want to see that!!
Hey man you inspired me to try mountain biking. Your videos have helped me get motivated to get back in shape and to get outside again. Just got my first bike from the local bike shop this week. Thank You.
Fubar: Congrats! I'm 75 and help coach a high school MTB team here in Colorado .... so you can look forward to many years of enjoyment and challenge. Rubber side down! Safety first! Rule #1 is FUN!! 🙂
Metele Brow!
That was a huge adventure! I finally could enjoy the view😁 The coke was gooooooood❤ Thanks Brian!
I got this comment as you and other ppl that we won somerhing in a giveway, it has bkxc profile pic and it says to text a number. Is this a scam or what? I am new here and i cant find a video where he did a giveaway. If there is only my coment on this than they deleted it.
Three of my favorite channels all together in an awesome lengthy whirlwind of a ride...

@@AcoVidikovac scam for sure, report it and don't call the number.
recently tore my hamstring and haven’t been able to ride every time you post it makes my day because i can get a little bit of what i’m missing out on
Heal fast!
Lots of awesome mtb content out there these days to keep you busy! I did the same while I was down recently with a collarbone injury
BCPOV and VanGirl Yuka! What a pleasant surprise! The positivity of your channel brightens my day every time you post, man. Thank you.
Love seeing you with Eric and Yuka. Hate the wind. Hate it, hate it, hate it. And my dad also made me adequately paranoid about leaving things visible in my car. Of course, he was a cop, so there you go.

@@AcoVidikovac I’m assuming scam.
@@JasonFoxLCB if you find out comment here.
@@AcoVidikovac It's a total scam. Finally looking at it on my computer (instead of my phone). Just someone swiping BKXC's graphics and going on a phishing expedition.
Brian you camelback Yuka. Audio sounds like it. Super clear voice 😆
I love when you get a tailwind that’s exactly same as your ground speed and the air is perfectly still around you.
It's awesome to see you three back in action again
Keep on shredding
Loved watching that from here in North Wales UK. Looks fantastic,wonderful escapism from what’s happening in the world right now. Loved it 🤘👍
Nice! You went back!! Glad to see this with a better camera.
EPIC This has been maybe the best ride ever. Stunning views, great trails, fantastic final descend. WOW. Tank you so much for this dream video!
Your videos really help me while my newborn is awake late through the night, also made me purchase a new full-suspension bike 🤷♂️.
What an awesome collab with @BCpov, love the video guys!
As someone who may or may not work in that general area and who may or may not possess the capacity to handle the issue of criminal activity regarding your break-in concerns, I highly recommend you call/report any suspicious activities even if you don't feel it's necessary. Often times, govt agencies rely on statistics to justify throwing resources at certain problems. With a track record/history of reported break-ins and or suspicious activities, it makes the job much easier to handle business. You can reach out direct if you have any questions.
BTW, my ears perked up at the mention of "dirt bags." LOL Lastly, keep the vids coming. I'm waiting on the my Ripmo AF to come in and it couldn't happen soon enough. I'll be riding this trail by the end of June!!
Man, you have amazing stamina. Watching you rock up those climbs, and up and over rocks and stuff, wow. Saw your Portal trail video last night. OMG, NEVER for me. :)
What a fantastic set of trails and beautiful scenery!
Wow that looked like an awesome ride. Thanks for sharing it
Nice to see you 3 in a trail. God bless
I just bought a piece of land in pinyon pines and was super curious about this trail. So stoked to have found this video. It’s absolutely epic.
Did this ride for my first time in January. Man, you made it seem easy. The wash climb crushed me... wasn't fun watching a bunch of ebikes blow by me.
The ride is incredible. I got mixed up in the Goat trails trying to take Wild horse out. Nice job!!!!
I am heading down there tomorrow for a family visit. I wanted to bring my bike but after a crash from last weekend I am still on the mend. I will have to schedule another trip down there now after watching this video. Thanks for keeping me stoked from my laptop :)
Love it when I see some of my favorite RUclipsrs collaborate! Thanks for the adventure! Did you get those nuggets Brian? Lol!
Really enjoyed watching this as I prep one of my bikes for paint!
Great video!! The ride looked like it was a blast!!
Just love these video’s. Keep em coming.
Glad your van is ok 👍
Great colab with a couple of my fave MTB 'tubers 😁🙏🏼
Thank you the great video ..iam thinking of do this trail in October
You should try out an Owlcam for the van. You can live stream into the cam and it also has a feature that triggers flood lights and beacons if someone tries to mess with the van. Could help with your peace of mind
I love that light blue bike. I had the exact same color Framed Alaskan Fat Bike. Great vid. Thanks, brother.
Nice riding!
Love this ride., been fortunate to do it twice. A long way from civilization in the middle of the desert. Gotta love the wash climb 😁👍🏼
What a ride man ! That was freakin awesome. That's the kind of riding I like; swooping, smooth ish, climbs broken up by long downhill sections with peanut butter for fuel.
I'm a local and ride the top and bottom sections of this but I've never done the whole thing because my fear of the sandy wash being soft. Looks like its firm so we need to go in the next few weeks. Great video as always!
I rode those trails from the mid 90's to 2007 before moving to San Diego. A lot of those sections have not changed, it was a real trip to call out corners & obstacles before you even got to them, and yes that dry wash coming out of Palm Canyon to Dunn Rd. ( the pain shaker ) is brutal
Great ride! Excellent audio of fellow riders. Yuca rips! tfs
I love those portable peanut butter packs. I tend to smear them onto a bar of some type either granola or Clif mostly and it hits the spot every time. It also tempers the sweetness of a Clif bar nicely which after so long riding even the best flavors get tired.
My three favorite youtubers. Yuka's my hero!
I remember a few weeks ago I went to ponti ridge in Marin parked by the Burger King next to 101 while I was getting my gear from my passenger side I saw a couple in a truck pull up next to my truck and the women got off and ran to my bike that was just standing behind my truck I poked my head behind my truck and saw her hand on my handle bar and she just said “oh sorry” and ran back to their truck I got the license plate number and reported it to the police hopefully helped someone from getting their bike stolen but I have herd a lot of bikes getting stolen in Marin County in the last couple years and cars getting broken into at trail heads. You should think about putting a recording camera in the back of your van with a smile your on cámara sticker
Three of my favourite wholesome MTBr's
Always exciting stuff you guys doing,,,make me dream to have such skills likes yours ,,but i enjoy it anyway watching your film,,thanks for sharing,,,
Sick. That trail looked fun! I put it on the list.
Going to ride PCE tomorrow, it is called Epic for a reason. great video as always.
Beautiful trail
That was awesome just like the original ride years ago.
I live there...
The trail really deserves its name.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RIDE IT ALONE, UNPREPARED, WITH NO COMMUNICATION!!! DONT UNDERESTIMATE THIS RIDE!!! (can be live threatening in worst case)
By confronting that sketchy guy, you may have avoided finding a note along the lines of:
"Thanks for the F-shack. Love, Dirty Mike and the boys."
Hello. I'm watching your videos right now. Greetings from Cali Colombia South America
Now that's a wild ride for the wind to stop everyone in their tracks!
This is epic!
Love the many types of vegetations.
cactus jack mcdonalds travis scott meal reference
my life flash b4 my eye and I just watched ur video
I was sleeping in the back of my truck topper in black hills and some one tried getting into my truck, luckily I yelled hey and he left, but it gets to you. I'm debating of bringing my 12 gauge with me from now on.
I've left trailheads do to shady people milling around, also find it near impossible to put a backpack on after two years of the hip pack.
Brian you’re lucky to get tailwind thru the wash! You should finish the ride going down cathedral trail next time, I think it’s funner.
Based on the weather, I think you rode that the day after my buds and I did. We were staying in an RV park in Cathedral City and looking up that way we even commented that things would be sporty up on the Hahn and Wildhorse.
BKXC, you should get a steering wheel lock and gas siphon blocker for your van. I bet there are numerous ways to make your van 'thief' proof. Of course, they can always bash the window and get in if they want...but you can have various things to be protective. I am sure you are doing some of these.
so good
Another cool video thanks. I don't like cactus...
More of the dirtbag experience -- A couple of years ago I had my car broken into, 2 windows broken and an expensive RM Element stolen. After an episode like that, suspicion runs deep and I'm not the trusting person I used to be.
Total Bucket List RIde! Yea the Santa Anna WInds. Can't ride during them
However I am going to have to try to get that bum bag from osprey for my lighter days that looks quite interesting to have that one and I bet it's a lot lighter
Reminds me alot of Ridgeline Trail in Tucson
As a magazine says...IN THE WIND. Nice shreddin'...
So funny for a Vermonter to hear someone from LA say its cold out... HAHA
omg...so close to the edge!
Lol i got the cactus jack reference bang bang lol good ol mick foley lol
the best ride ever
My friend Marshall used to say “you can’t want what you don’t see” so keeping things covered up or under you seat hidden is good, one night I came home realizing I left my phone in my car I parked just up the street saw this guy at my car looking in and then pressing his face to the window of my car then putting his fingers in the crack of the door, I walked up and I said high, he looked up and said hey man there is an iPhone in there can you see it just then I put my key in the lock opened the door grabbed my phone and said I see it leaving the guy standing there his mouth agape
My hands are cold ... oh you need to wear the gloves! 🤣
9.53 just chatting away with a MASSIVE drop to the right lol
Gotta keep your eyes on the dirt not the drop off! Some of those cliffs look like the train station in Yellowstone TV show!
Welcome back to the valley! How long will you be in town?
Great vid
How many miles!?
Only Place my X didn't ruin for me. Mad Love Palm!
Looks happy, sana all
You probably feel better rolling speed and less resistance because the bearings are new. Also if you reduce the weight on the outside of the wheel the moment of inertia will be reduced result being less effort required for better excellaration.
Sad to see all the jumps at the beginning dismantled... they were just built when we rode it in 2018... I guess they didn't last long :(
dam I gotta go back here
I visited there and road that trail great ride but it took a while
Nice Mick Foley Cactus Jack reference
very cool trail...how long does it take?
The wind is why the landscape in Palm Springs is littered with windmills.
🔥🔥🔥
I can tell you, the Onyx hubs weren't the lag you were feeling. those are butter.
muy buen video, donde es ?
Mountain biking is so sick
Nice
This is what I want, I hope my youtube grows and I can buy a bike like that
Quick question? You think I could start mountain biking down hill with a 29 inch hard tail. I have a salsa rangefinder and I just want to start riding. Hopefully it was a good beginner decision on the budget bike. Thanks
Palm canyon epic is the most grueling trail I’ve ever ridden. The sandy non rideable walk is torture.
A major hike in PS is to go from the PS Art Museum up to the top of the Tram and then continue up to the top of San Jacinto. The last time I did it, I arrived at 3AM and saw a lot of glass from the broken-in cars of hikers who started before me. There was a Sierra Club group that left at 12AM. I caught up to them and warned them what to expect when they got back to their cars. The crooks were probably local dirtbag kids who know the owners won't be back for hours.
05:55 ALWAYS stand or walk on the mountain side and push your bike on the valley side. NEVER walk, push or stand "under" the bike
That was a smart move Brian we forget about the power of our cameras
Pretty sure I saw you guys at Teds a little over a week ago, waiting for that to drop.
So how long was that ride time wise
*bang! bang!*
big fan sir ✌ i am from india
Always wire Yuka up for sound. Always.
How do you set your cockpit if you don't have a RUclips channel? I always use metric myself. I have no idea what random numbers are used for imperial measurements.
