I'm very familiar with these trails, but i always enjoy seeing them through someone else's lens.

Yeah it's one of our favourite areas to ride. Thanks for watching!

Awesome video, great editing going from your pov to the rear camera! It would be really cool if you could capture all the Cardo conversation banter! Was this just a day trip for you guys or did you stay nearby?

Thanks for the feedback! It’s funny because I think I just came up with a way to record the Cardo conversations. I’m gonna try it next ride. Unfortunately, most of it I can’t publish. Loll

I looked at those a while back and thought they looked pretty cool. How long have you had yours? No issues?

@@johnsoff-road ….had it for a little over a year now…zero issues! My buddy who also has one on his xmr 1000 hasn’t had any issues either. Anybody that we have pulled out has said they want one because of how good it works and how quick and easy it is.

Do you ride a lot of mud and water? Just wondering if it clogs the retracting mechanism at all?

Great trail network. Nice video bud!

Thank you!

Which trails are these? Also, is that polaris guy the one who used to have the old red Sportsman? If it is, that guy is a weapon and not in a good way. He's gonna hurt himself the way he rides. There's a difference between riding aggressively and just being plain stupid. Dont mean to offend or anything. Ive watched most of your ride videos and the way he rides makes me nervous. Good video as always

These trails are accessed from the parking area on Black River Rd. Off of the 118. I mention the trail numbers a couple times in the video but I can't remember exactly what route we took as we ended up doubling back a couple times. And don't worry about Ronnie. LOL. He's been riding ATV's and sleds his whole life. He knows what he's doing. We all ride differently and have different levels of confidence on our machines.

@@johnsoff-road Because you've gotten lucky isn't exactly a reason to say what you're doing is right. He went into that berm way too fast. Easy to grab tire wrong and flip. I've seen him nearly kill himself atleast twice just in your videos. But I guess he can do him. There isn't a trail in Ontario I won't hit and I don't do go arounds. But there's a way to do the obstacles to minimize risk and he doesn't do that. Hopefully he doesn't kill himself on that thing for his sake and yours.

@@karenpeterson-mw2vg He's nearly killed himself atleast 2 times just in these videos. One was only saved because he luckily fell into a tree. You are blinded by your closeness to the issue. Me not knowing these people allows me to judge the situation more objectively. Just because you've managed to survive up to this point is not an indication what you are doing is right. I'm an experienced rider, I ride all the same trails these guys do. I've been off roading in one form or another for 15+ years and I know what reckless driving looks like. Just takes one small change to go from an "aggressive" drift up a berm to a roll over and a broken collar bone or worse. This sport is already dangerous and exhilarating enough and riding like he does is just unnecessary and dangerous. Also, I didnt slam anyone, I pointed out how dangerous his driving style is. I've seen more than one guy who said the same thing that they knew what they were doing, until they didn't. You notice how no one else in the group rides like him or ever looks like theyre one small mistake from being out of control? Then there's him, uncontrollably wheelying up rock inclines and recklessly attacking dangerous obstacles without control. That speaks enough volumes. If the way he rides is totally safe so long as you know what you're doing, every other experienced rider would do the same. But most experienced riders know how unsafe what he does is which is why they avoid it. This is going to be my only "slam". How he rides does not display skill or aggression, it displays a lack of intelligence and ignorance to consequence.
