It's been 2 weeks! 🤪

That looks excellent, my absolute favourite type of trail.

Hey dale love the videos you gave me so much inspiration for youtube

That Marvin lap was hectic. I honestly didn't think I landed the drop as deep as I did :D

Somehow missed this latest posting of yours. Great riding as always. I’m impressed (?) that you ride the trail that will remain nameless solo… and fast.

Steve was chasing me down, don't worry! 🫡

I look forward to this yearly trail vid! Keeping me motivated when we move back!

Just as always... AWESOME trails and riding again :-D

You know a trail is serious when it actually looks steep on a GoPro

I love going to trials and seeing 2 trees a handle bar width apart, and the bark on the sides is worn down from countless failed attempts.

What's the significance of the bell sound again? Forgive me for my newb question. I hear the bell in other videos from other channels that Dale is in. Is the bell sound being added in post? Or Is the bell just going off because of the sheer forces? Ain't no hikers on these trails to warn. I don't see his thumb hitting it. It sometimes goes off while he is in mid air. Every time i hear the bell out and about I'm looking around for Dale.

How you didn't pick up sticks in your spokes during the loamer section is beyond me, you must have anti-stick wheelset 😎

@@DaleStone my bikes not quiet, and on a blind corner coming around a bush I rolled into (literally) the biggest black bear I’ve ever seen in my life (and I’ve seen lots) at the bottom section of Franks that parallels the road. Think it was probably that one you took a pic of a few years ago on at the T-Junction of Harper and called “Big Boi”. Yellow tag in his ear. I’ve heard from others he might also be known as Willie Nelson. Thankfully I startled him as much as he startled me and he turned and ran into the bushes. To this day, wish I had a GoPro to capture the incident. Hard to imagine it wouldn’t have got significant traction on the media sites.

this is a fairly low light environment and i feel like the camera does very well with stabilizing and just loses a bit of definition as you said on the dji camera review, although, I wonder if the stabilization would be the same on a chest mount

@DaleStone

3 ай бұрын

A chest mount would be significantly shakier, since your neck is a massive stabilizer.

The amount of low foliage on some of these trails is giving me PTSD. Here in NorCal, half of those bushes would be poison oak. Do you get poison oak or ivy in BC?

@@DaleStone yeah, i wasn't poking specifically at the trail on the video, the trails near me are all very poorly maintained and it's impossible to learn to ride here, everywhere you go the grip is absolutely all over the place, and that's when grass hasn't just taken over a whole section rendering it basically unusable, as you can't see what's next. I still love them but it's no fun to fall while casually braking on a straight line after doing jumps and other stuff just fine, i wasn't even pushing the brakes much and i had my weight properly distributed, but the surface was so loose that it simply didn't matter

The second trail looks like doesn't maintain well.

@DaleStone

Certainly hard to maintain, but low enough traffic not to matter for now!
