Awesome videos mate. I've watched every single one. I lived in Nelson for years, watching these clips makes me miss the place. Keep up the great work 👍

Thanks heaps. We loved our time in Nelson. Sadly was not as long as planned.

Spectacular spot, Wow! There is definitely some magic discovering these beautiful trails by yourself. Really glad that you finally mention e-bikes on your channel 😎

Thanks very much. Sadly all over now but keen to do again.

My wife ran out of steam on a tricky root infested uphill, bike toppled over, and the bike shifted/slid back downhill. As it did so, she fell over and impaled herself on the handlebar end sticking up. She had quite a mark on her stomach area from the grip end. We rode the last few miles to the end, but when we got home she wasn’t feeling well. I suggest we just go to hospital to get her checked out, long story short, she lacerated her liver and won 3 days in an intensive ward just in case it burst! Definitely an odd occurrence, but those things happen in mtb land. Btw, awesome camping spot, beach and mountains

Ok, I had better find me a bar end. I have still not done that yet.

Use your adverbs Lance e.g. "I did that terribly"!

Appreciate your effort 🎉. Thanks mate

Glad you are enjoying them. Only one more to come.

Great footage and content as usual Lance and to answer your question re bar ends. I crashed and slammed hard about 5 yrs ago and would of taken a core sample of my inner thigh had it not been for my hope bar ends. I still have a dent in my muscle to this day and dread to think of the possible without bar ends. Stay safe and keep shredding

This was late March. Yes, you need an e bike.

Lovely spot. Hope to ride there at xmas. How much does your KTM weigh?

Great location and always new trails to check out each time we go. Can't believe you didn't ride Jaws or show us the view from the top of Corkscrew.

I was given some recommendations of trails to do and did all of them. Jaws was not mentioned.

@tqminnz1405

@@bestdayevermtb2 Fair enough. Jaws is a long flow trail and maybe the recommended trails were picked to be more challenging. The view from the top of Corkscrew is stunning though - another time.

Great video Lance. I’m lucky enough to live in Nelson and ride an E-MTB on some of the best trails in NZ.

What happened to the end/exposed section of Kamikaze? It cut from the start of that to the end of the trail.

Can't remember now. If I cut it out, it must have been easy. Don't remember a difficult bit.

@@bestdayevermtb2 it's just after that stream crossing you do, then it goes up and left, and gets real narrow and exposed as it follows a gulley around to the right. It's probably the scariest part of the trail due to the exposure on your right into the gulley.
