Dear BCpov, I’m new to this channel. I think you are a very good biker. I would really appreciate it if you could teach me to bike like you. I’m 9 years old and am pretty good at biking on trails, not dirt, but concrete. I would like to learn how to mountain bike. I could pay you but, I am only 9 after all. From, Shea

No Front Brakes it’s amazing what you do even if you are disabled you still move forwards. My message is “Even if you are different doesn’t make you bad at what you do. So go all out and do your best.” BTW love your work :)

“Only 350 ft of elevation” *Cries Dutch tears. Our bike park is 108 ft, which is the highest elevation for I’d say at least 100 miles around

108 FT!!!! My bike park is 78 ft and that’s pretty much the only bike park for at least 250 miles

Honestly Eric, putting aside the awesome storytelling, editing and ride progression. How you represented No Front Breaks was very tastefully done. Great work dude. -Sam

Oh man, I wish I'd have known you guys were going to be in town! My son and I were there the next day. As for the wallride, it has bested my son many times. For anyone reading, it's very easy if you get on it early (I typically ride right over the star). Glad you guys had fun at our little bump of a hill here in Texas :)

Heck yeah brother!!! Glad to see you made it to my home state. Enjoy Texas and keep up the good work.

Actually addicted to this channel lately... keep it up my mans

Wow! We got to see someone conquer their fear and move onward in their skills. Way to go, Eric! You're going to have a new subscriber in just a couple of seconds. By the way, Mr. BCPov, I am having a hard time watching your videos as NOT envisioning Mark Rober playing the part of you. You sound JUST like him. Haha! (that's a good thing - I like Mark Rober) Stay upright and keep the rubber side down! -Brian

Well done! I really liked the opening of the vid with the 3D map of the mountain/trails. Tarantula (the wall ride) is such a fun trail. Really enjoyed watching Eric conquer that chunky section too. That guy really conveys the emotion we riders feel when we accomplish something new or conquer a section that just gets in our heads.

Cool stuff as always Eric, your really turning your channel into a quality TV style program. Your attention to detail is inspiring, always a joy to watch... cheers BCPOV!!!

So close to Big Cedar!! Hope you guys had a good time in Texas.

Yessss great to see another video on this place! Can't wait to go there next month!

Eric's setup is nothing short of brilliant.

We just rode here yesterday! Thanks for the inspiration. Crazy to see how that rock garden on stinger has changed a lot since your video.

Looks like you guys had a blast! Can't wait to see your next adventure!

Me and the spider mountain dirt have an intimate relationship

Awesome to capture their progression on this ride!

That was awesome! As always, thanks for bringing us along! :D \m/

Awesome vid! I live up in North Austin and ride all the other trails around here but have never gotten up the courage to get out on spider mountain. You guys make it look easy :P

My wife and I built that b line down the wooden drop! Sweet trail for sure! If you get go of the brakes down the rock rolls it's a lot smoother! Sweet vid!

Hoping to hit spider mountain in two weeks! Awesome video!

Great way to showcase Spider! Such a fun place in Austin!

there was a guy I knew back in the 90s who was missing his arm (crazy story of how he lost it), but he didnt have a prosthetic and he rode his mtn bike with half a handlebar. he was a decent racer but he did crash alot. it was pretty amazing to watch him ride.

So cool what Eric has come up with to still get out there. So badass.

Eric is awesome! Inspiring. I raced crits and met a Cat-3 rider who only had one arm - other was missing. He was an astoundingly good racer.

When my family goes camping, we follow this trail called the pit of doom. It is not an official trail, but the trail has a great end where you reach a bowl with slabs, wall rides,and skinny spots. The bowl is actually a emergency pond for floods. Hopefully you go to Washington State, Olympia and camp at American Heritage!!!!!!!!

Oh god I miss my grip shift every time I ride other bikes😂

Love it. Great vid and footage.

Spider mountain is a good time! It looks like you guys had it it yourselves for the most part!

Woah! Scary wall ride! Last summer my son and I were riding and he went right over the top of a wall!! He was fine but a little shook up.

Good video. Glad you met up with Eric!

Your wife is a Beast!! She is very fun to hear in the videos and I’m hoping she is an inspiration for my wife. You both are to me. A couple sharing a hobby that’s not only healthy but gets you all outside and your heads not glued to a screen. Best of luck.

Thanks for the tips for Stinger! I ride spider and haven't cleared it yet.

thanks for visiting. great vid

“Oh yea, oh yea, oh yea”. Lol

Your graphics, editing and video recording are really a cut above. There are a good many MTB KZread folk who could take a lesson from you and Yuka. Thanks for the entertaining and informative content.

Hey man I love your videos!I’m a trail builder in bentonville Arkansas and I would love to get some video tips from you! Your editing is freaking superb

Good recovery on that wall ride! Whew!!

You should come back out, bunch of new trails built this past year and more in progress. Not to mention Reveille Peak Ranch is only 8 miles down the road and imo has some of the best trails in TX.

He needs a setup that works like ski bindings. Something that will lock in but break free in a crash. Don't know how to do it but there's smart people out there.

Just started mountain biking and having tons of fun

My Dad and I are going in April. Looks pretty fun!

1:22 it's funny to see the lake cooling effect with the wind on the Great Lakes.

Go to Alabama oak mountain it’s pretty technical and big in Hoover Alabama not to far from Texas...called oak mountain I also wouldn’t mind showing you around on some of the trails there if you plan on going comment down below and tell me when and what day at what time I would be honored to show you around I think you would like the trails hit me up down below and tell me if you are going thanks

Loving in the Austin area, I kinda wanna go there now, might not be the best park in the world, but, hey, enjoy what you have!

Do you have any tips or videos for beginners? Love the videos!

I enjoyed your video!🤩 Nice! 👍🤘

Colorado is pretty sweet but right no it’s all snow but the snow is tons of fun you should check it out some time. It looked like you had a good time I love your videos

😜🤘🤘🚴 Great Stuff Eric and Yuka 🚴🚴🚴 great job of your friend Eric Sending it's 🚴🤘🤘

I remember once in a Downhill race, 2015, I lost my front brake in a drop. After it there was a wallride and I went straight through it as it was a drop lmao. I Broke my arm and the worst of it! I wasn't recording on my gopro... 😭

I've been watching your guys vids since last summer before I had a mountain bike. I'd love to ride with you guys if you're making you way over to Socal!

Yo my home state MTB park I'm so glad you chose Spider Mountain out of all the MTB park across Texas.

You @bcpov and @vangirlyuka are improving greatly in your riding! It’s exciting to see, as I’m learning myself. Seeing someone so experienced continually improving keeps me motivated! Also, what happened to your other sponsors?

I really want to get down to TX for some mid winter DH!

Nice! Santa’s village is also a bike park that is open year round, even in winter.

No lift, that's what makes Spider Mountain unique

Yewwww Yew! Keep up the great content :)

As someone who loves watching your videos but has never actually mountainbiked, what is so challenging about 7:40 compared to other stuff u guys do? Those jumps look way more scary!

@BCpov

Basically because it's slippery and steep, it's easy to fall!

Love your Videos

That "white whale" feature is a totally different animal when it is very dry. Becomes EXTREMELY dusty. This past summer I was trying to slow roll and look at it but I literally couldn't stop the bike. Wheels locked sliding at like 3 mph just slide slide slide slide.

I see that you guys are in California lately. I hope you can make it up to the northern part of the state where we have some great riding. Check out those in El Corte de Madera (aka Skeggs) or north of UC Santa Cruz, Demonstration forest. There's a flow trail there that is pretty fun! Maybe I'll see you out there!

That shiz is a mtn when you live in houston! lol Can't wait to try it out later this summer

I went in August and had alot of fun. Not including the lift in 90ish° weather, though.

eric is a fucking champion, he have so much to be proud of, truly an inspiration :)

I actually went here last week! It is amazing!

Hey Eric I am a huge fan. I ride spider a lot and was glad to see you and Yuka ride spider. (PS i did the same thing you did on the wall ride but I crashed)

Cool, that place is definitely on my list

You should tell Erik that you can get a kind of brakelever that like 2 in 1 so the cables are in 1

You guys so awesome

Awesome!

I went over the bars at spider this weekend. also as it you who put the BCPOV sticker on the lift strut

aric you rode better than me with that prosthetic arm your gonna become a leagend

I live North Shore on Montreal (my friend spoke to Yuka when you guys were at Sentiers du Moulin Qc but I wasn't there) my local bike park is 24min away and is about the same as Sugarloaf you have been too. Still good fun to be had there espacially the season pass is 300$ and considering the day pass is 45$ and i go there 13-15 times during the season, I am pretty happy to have this place to keep improving my skills. Turning 43 next month heading on my 4th year riding. Really hope I can progress more. Damn injuries I don't heal as good a before haha I wanna do that King Kong drop ;) oh and Sugar daddy was so fun we did it about 8 times that day. Was my 7th day of my 8 days road trip in the Quebec area (2h30 driving distance). I blew my rear shock and rented a Kona Operator. First time on a DH and wow. At the one point i had to stop cuz I had too much of a hard time getting off and on the bike cuz I had cracked my ribs on day the of the road trip haha

I did that doble black and it was Fun.

I’m waiting for someone to open a bike park in West Texas where we actually have mountains at 8000 ft elevation and year long riding weather too.

Not sure how far along in your trip you are, but when you make it back up to Northern Idaho/Eastern Washington hit me up. I would love to give you a tour of the area (look up Beacon Hill).

hey some day you should visit Christchurch Adventure Park in New Zealand

Bro i love that place i did all of the trails and it was so much fun

Almost too high on that wall ride at 13:11! Great to see @NoFrontBrakes too! Really great stuff!

You should’ve visited Katy Texas the town is growing fast and also a good dounut shop there

Man I wish I had a bikepark near me as high has Spidermountain. I live in the Netherlands and the only bikepark near me has a trailhead at like 10 meters (about 33 ft) high.

What would you expect from texas and having mountains if you want mountains you would have to go to glen rose probably

😳 watch out for those walls haha.

do you think it would be a good idea to ride a cruiser bike on a hardcore mountain bike park?

my local dh park (2 hours away) has an insane vertical of 200 feet

can you to Bike Park Groningen? it is the smallest bike park in the world but it is very sketchy

I pulled one of my back muscles in hockey today

have you ever tried trials biking?
