      Aside from the rain it seems like a great place. The riding there and what’s close to it is top notch. It’s only about 2 hours from Whistler.

    Such a great video dude and it’s great to see Josh back at it. His videos are so far and few between right now it’s good to see a familiar face hitting the stuff in his neighborhood and I agree with you, Robert I’m not a guy either I like to look at it a couple times and then make a very business like decision.

    This is hilarious. My son and I just did a Bellingham-Squamish-Whistler trip at the end of September, and even stopped by Josh’s church. We didn’t ride diamond head in Squamish but camped at Alice Lake and rode those tech/slab trails. Epic adventure for sure!!! 🤘🏼

    • @B1KER
      @B1KER  3 месяца назад +1

      The only difference for us was we did hit Diamond Head. If you ever go back ride Half Nelson there. It was one of the most fun flow trails I've ever been on. It'll be in the next video for sure!

    You know what? You reminded me of me, a bit, sir! My name is Luís Martins and I'm a doctor, from Coimbra, Portugal, 45 years old. It is completely ok to back off a bit and build up your confidence, with proper knowledge of the trail/track. From what I saw in you video I would have tried a little bit more stuff than you did, the first go around in some of the trails but...jumps, you have to practice them! Drops, especially in almost freefall, you've got to practice!!! I'm the proud owner of 3 bikes and slowly building the 4th and last, wich will be a 120/120mm XCO Specialized Epic 8. Nr 2 is a Specialized Stumpjumper Evo 160/150mm(wich I consider a perfect bike and THE holly grail of Trail/Enduro bikes). Nr 3 is a Propain Tyee CF 180/160mm full of carbon to the teeth to make it as light as possible(13,57kgs- Stumpy, 13,97kgs- Tyee). All my bikes are better than their rider - me! Lol! But, MTB makes me feel alive in a way that only...well, sex does. But being a doctor, working with my hands, performing surgery and, especially, not being 25 anymore makes me realize that one does have to be carefull. I cannot endager my wrists. Ever. Period. That would be a disaster! And my life dreams are to "hit" Leogang Bike Park, Austria, and surrounding trails and, of course, the Meca - Whistler! Go get it, my friend. And good luck! Envy you a lot, with that trip to Whistler...Lol! Subscribed your channel and hit the like button. Keep sending more good stuff! Good ridings, safe ridings. Cheers, all the way from Coimbra, Portugal!
