I just wanted to put this out there before more people get their panties in a wad; I am not encouraging anyone to drink and ride. I never drink on pedal days, only on shuttle days or park days on the lift. However when I drink it's to loosen up and have a good time but there have been a few times where I had too much to drink (like the day in this video) which wasn't intentional. I own 3 businesses and work between 65-70 hrs a week. I only get to ride 1 day a week so my ride is my outlet and stress reliever. I am an all business when I am working. In fact, I own a restaurant and we serve beer, wine and cocktails and I never drink on work days. I don't go out and party so riding is how I party and have a good time. I could have easily edited out my 20 crashes to make myself "look better" but that's not what I'm about. Crashing sucks but its part of riding. I post my videos for the guys I ride with, my subscribers but mostly for me to watch on those days that I'm grinding and hustling at the office and just need a 10 min break from work. Mountain biking is an extreme sport, I understand that I can get hurt, but people die everyday in car accidents just driving to work. I don't live my life in fear or regrets. I fully commit and push my limits with everything that I do (work, mountain biking, being a husband, father, etc) because that's the only way I believe that I will get better. Again I don't encourage anyone to drink and ride but I do encourage everyone to have a good a time when you're out there riding.
Damn man. I'm still living vicariously through all of you guys. One of these days I hope to see you and the boys in Aliso/Woods if I haven't already to say WASSUP!Thanks for sharing as usual.
I'm glad you had fun, I was bummed at how loose the trails were, next time you come back we need to hit Frontside, its more gnar and I know you would love it.
When I watch your videos i get pumped to go ride, I ride everyday during the week on the bike Loop to keep up on my cardio, than I shred the trails on The weekend. but i'll watch a video of yours before i go out.
Been waiting for this video when I heard you were rollin with Brian. Rarely get to see a follow cam of him and it's great to see his improved riding from another perspective. Nice shredding Tommy.
Patrick White yes I agree, I was so surprised at how much better Brian got since the last time I rode with him last year. He is very humble and you can't tell how good he is when he is filming but I'm glad I got some footie of him so everyone can see that Brian can mash it.
Do your thing man, drinking or not, you guys charge...the older Eaton Shuttle vids with BKXC are the best. I love watching fast lines on our local trails. Hopefully see you out there on Merrill, Sunset, or El P.
hahahaha yeah seriously I drank more than I planned to, but isnt that always the case? Yeah all the trails that we shuttled on the backside (Red Box, Christian Camp and Charlton Flats) are not as gnar as the front side but still pretty fun. The conditions were bad, It was super loose and of course we are getting tons of rain now. I wished the rain came a week earlier.
The footage is stable but the transition in and out of shadow areas rolls to super bright before it catches up. I was gonna ask if you were running the rylo.
Bullseye Fowl yes these trails are on the back side of Mt Wilson which is accessible by the shuttle. We finished the day hitting "Darkside" which is also fun (I will post that video up in couple days). I normally do "Frontside" which is more gnarly but is definitely my favorite.
there are 3 different shuttles, all different prices, My favorite is "Frontside" which is the most gnar, the drop off is at 5500 ft elevation and the trail is 13.5 miles that shuttle is $20. "Darkside" drops off at 6000 ft elevation but is shorter about 7 miles that shuttle ride is $25. What we did on Sunday is called the Mt Wilson Enduro day which is an all day ride with multiple shuttle drop offs and pick ups. We shuttled 6 trails hit a total of about 30 miles mostly all DH. That ride is $60
JC TRAILS it's Sony AS300. The only difference is X3000 films in 4k I only rec in 1080 since RUclips compresses everything over 4k anyway. They both have the BOSS (Image stabilizer)
Another great vid dude! Easily one of my favorite places around here. You guys skipped the hike a bike section up to the top of Hillyer? So Christian camp goes straight to Silver Moccasin? Never gone that way. Always start up top by the big ass rocks.
TomitaroO we didn't shuttle Hillyer, we shuttled Silver Moccasins from Christian Camp and Chantry Flats (will be in next video). Silver Moccasins is actually a 53 mile trail and we only shuttled the DH sections of it.
Nuke Bunnyman yeah he was planning to stop by restaurant but he had the flu on Friday, I had a wedding on Saturday night and we rode on Sunday. He drove home today, he is a very busy man these days.
Hey Tommy Huynh nice video !!!! We are french riders, we work with the filmmaker GoldenHelmets, can you give us a review/commentary of our channel ? :)
Ripping it up! Brain is looking fast and has some badass style, Check out my channel, I got some riding footage - would love to shred with you dudes. Im in Vegas.
I don’t understand the point of getting drunk while mountain biking. It doesn’t make you a better rider, just slower and impaired. And increases your chances significantly of crashing and getting hurt. Totally bad judgement. This is not the first video of you and your crew drinking go juice, but this will be my last viewing of your videos. I will no longer condone stupidity.
Rodney Stewart you might be slower drinking and riding, but it is my opinion that I get faster. I could be wrong, maybe I do get slower but everything around me seems faster? This has not been scientifically proven, I'm still trying to figure it out. Regardless, I'm not encouraging you or anyone to drink and ride, infact when I bust out the Go Juice I always offer some to my boys because it's the polite thing to do. Some are smart enough to say no and there is no pressure from me or anyone to drink. You do you and I'll do me.
Uncle Grandpa your statement, “he’s not hurting anyone” This is Mt. Wilson and there are significant amount of hikers especially weekends. And i do believe drinking increases the chances of hurting someone. No different than driving while under the influence.

Jaye Fyve thanks brotha, yes definitely say what's up if you see me at Aliso and maybe we can hit a run
Awesome video! Brian rides like a boss now and Zach is a certified beast!
namkul yes Brian is a legit rider. He really surprised me last year at how good he is and he even got better this year. And yes Zach is a beast!
That was a fun day. Really impressed with how stable the footage from the Sony is.
I'm glad you had fun, I was bummed at how loose the trails were, next time you come back we need to hit Frontside, its more gnar and I know you would love it.

Zach is a beast! Really enjoying your recent videos
brianthehawaiian thanks brotha

JP thanks brotha. I agree Darkside is fun but Frontside is where it's at! Definitely one of my all time favorite be trails
Asian weddings no joke, you are a true Asian drinker. The trail is almost San Juan like, looks fun.
hahahaha yeah seriously I drank more than I planned to, but isnt that always the case?

what an awesome group of riders!
Trail Bike Bebop thanks brotha
Sick looking Trails please keep up sharing them :)
thanks bro, I just posted Part 2
The footage is stable but the transition in and out of shadow areas rolls to super bright before it catches up. I was gonna ask if you were running the rylo.
Aidan Gaffney no I use the Sony Action Cam.
That looks so fun, way different than the usual Mt Wilson trails you do.
Bullseye Fowl yes these trails are on the back side of Mt Wilson which is accessible by the shuttle. We finished the day hitting "Darkside" which is also fun (I will post that video up in couple days). I normally do "Frontside" which is more gnarly but is definitely my favorite.
Tommy Huynh what does the shuttle run?
there are 3 different shuttles, all different prices, My favorite is "Frontside" which is the most gnar, the drop off is at 5500 ft elevation and the trail is 13.5 miles that shuttle is $20. "Darkside" drops off at 6000 ft elevation but is shorter about 7 miles that shuttle ride is $25.

That ride is $60
Tommy Huynh Thanks Tommy, the Enduro looks really fun. Is there less hikers?
Bullseye Fowl yeah less hikers on the Enduro Shuttle trails
Tommy the helmet cam footage looks great! Is it the Sony fdr x3000?
JC TRAILS it's Sony AS300. The only difference is X3000 films in 4k I only rec in 1080 since RUclips compresses everything over 4k anyway. They both have the BOSS (Image stabilizer)

Wow, Brians back from S. Africa?? Hi to Brian Tommy!! I'm sure you'll bring him to your awesome Restaurant!!
Nuke Bunnyman yeah he was planning to stop by restaurant but he had the flu on Friday, I had a wedding on Saturday night and we rode on Sunday. He drove home today, he is a very busy man these days.
Right on man. Good stuff!
MTB Savant thanks brotha

Hey Tommy Huynh nice video !!!! We are french riders, we work with the filmmaker GoldenHelmets, can you give us a review/commentary of our channel ? :)
I enjoy your videos but your intro is so long. I have to fast forward to the beginning every time I watch your videos.. lol
