Looks like the Barnhartvale gravel pit.

Downhill domination 2003 bons tempos

Hardcore 🤟🏽🇧🇷

What fork is that ? DVO?

You shouldn't be riding those after a fire, bum.

How do you access the trail , thx 🤙

hey richie, i'm still playing downhill domination. and you richie, you're my favourite character. glad to see you that you still doing riding. stay healthy buddy.

My wife is from Laguna Niguel, and we go down once a year or so. I wasn't aware of anything not on Trailforks, but I spotted this trail from across the canyon from Laguna Ridge and swore I had to get back down there and ride it someday. Still waiting for my chance tho...

Somehow you made that look easy!

Looks like this trail is not on Trailforks.

does pg actually stand for pure genius? always wondered. Great riding man

I wonder if the phone needs an antenna signal in order to work? These off-road-like trails (as shown in the video) usually don't

Nice video but that's not the steepest trail in Laguna.

Rocky Mountain 2005

Hey Richie, was playing an old game called downhill domination from 2003 that you were in. Was playing it and surprised to see your still active staying on the bike 🤘. That's cool as hell glad to see it!

Love the drone footage near the Skull drop section of the trail!!!!!!

Love that aerial view. I always wanted to try that but wince at carrying around a "heavy" drone around my rides lol.

I’m also vertically challenged Richie and I’m looking at the same bike how tall are you? I am 5’4” with no shoes. The guys at Fezzari keep telling me I need a medium, but I normally ride a small.

Incredible film footage of an incredible socal steep trail! 4 Black Diamond Trail!

The very last chute is a MF'er, it's steep, loose, & kinda off camber!!!!!!!!!!

1:04 - 1:10 is total insanity! I can feel the tendons in my fingers straining and swelling up as I imagine myself squeezing the brake levers. Your explanation of a calmer/zen approach required for riding this type of trail makes perfect sense. Not sure if I'll ever be ready for something like this, but it's cool to see you guys riding it so smoothly.

Nice video Richie. Looks like a sick trail with some exposure!

I still haven’t get the guts to do the trail. Great job!

Great drone work

Sick Ritchie

The Drone I used is a Skydio 2 autonomous drone. So easy to use and it just follows me.

Dope drone footage! (great write up, too.)

The drone really captures the gnar

Great, Richie!! 🙌

oh yeah buddie!!

One of the most beautiful spots and great to see it from so many different angles. The glacier side looks bonkers! Such a spot, great job.

found some sick spots out there buddy

omg

Yeah...awesome! I'm putting a trip to Val di Fassa on my bucket list.

Dude, the scenery… wow.

Sick adventure. That roll was absolute death

Thanks for the review. Looks like a great bike and excellent value.

I’ve been riding for about 6 months and just landed the flying saucer rock on Mongo (the one after the double drop). I made it but it was ugly. I used speed more than technique since the end of the rock is not a shear drop off, but has a rounded bullnose to it which guides your front tire downward into about a 5-6’ drop. It looked like you didn’t have that much speed, but made it easily. Do you preload your fork and kind of do a bunny hop motion? I tried to push my handlebars forward to try and level out my wheels if that makes any sense. I’m not sure the proper technique, but you made a lot of those difficult features look pretty easy. Also there’s a nice jump line at the top near mongo if you go back.

Schleyering it on the la Sal peak 2.0, killer work .

What was that line choice all about? Good one!! How’s that suspension setup treating ya?

I’m going to be in near Kamloops next month and I’ve always wanted to check this place out. Any tips on how to get there I’ve been trying to find the exact location

I saw y’all on that women’s shred ride 😍🙌🏽

It was an awesome time 🔥🔥🔥

Thanks man.

Good to see You out and about. Legend

BC trails look waaaaay better

I need a drone🤟🏻

Excellent footage towards the end where it’s sketchy schtuff 🤙🏻💪🏻 post more please

What are specs on your ride now a days? 🤙🏻

Great review. What size bike do you have? It looks huge. I'd like to hear your thoughts about sizing up/down for different terrain. Every time I choose a big frame I wonder if I'd prefer a smaller frame and vice versa.
