    @@AlexanderAyling Just watched Episode 2. Sorry that your Dad had to cut the ride short. I agree that the ride into Gateway was spectacular! Can't wait to see the last two days of the ride. The only concession to my age was to arrange a ride from Gateway to the Colorado/Utah boundary. I was cautioned about the difficulty of the ride up the pass. I'm sure you'll comment on it in Episode 3. BTW, all the other riders with me were on full-suspension bikes. I rode my Why Cycles Supple Seven hardtail with 26.5 x 3" tires. Very stable!

    Hey Alex, amazing video! You've inspired me to look into it, as I do some recreational mtb in souther California. How did you do the logistics for it (bikes, can one rent a bike from the starting point, your vehicle, etc.)? Are there any other such hut trips you've done or know of? Amazing stuff, love your channel.

    Looks awesome! I love your adventures, so much so that my hubby and I did Ireland with all your tips on vaga brothers. We recently started riding in March but more so road biking and very light trails on hybrid bikes. The most we’ve done is 26 miles so far on mostly flat ground. What do you recommend we do to prepare for this type of mountain biking obstacle? We don’t have mountain bikes, so looking at buying some this fall.
