isn't bend just flat XC trails? Aside from the Bachelor bike part is there anything DH?

I rode Timberline bike park for the first time yesterday and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I prefer parks with bigger jump lines but nonetheless it was fun. Black runs are more like light enduro fun to train on .. topped off with riding timberline to town

Please reopen Skibowl!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A nice review from a non racer .Thanks.

Hi there, can I use an excerpt from this video for my upcoming bike video exploring the LL Stub state park?

AMAZING

Bend is pretty *MEH* for enduro riding. Phils is incredibly flat, and the area is generally very cross country. With the exception of what you rode, tylers traverse, and bachelor, it is incredibly average when compared to other areas. Hood river to name a better destination in oregon

Thanks man very helpful.

Hey I'm up here from Bend checking out Hood River area, riding surveyors ridge on Monday I'll be riding your ride on Tuesday thanks!

Thanks for a great Video. I am traveling to Portland next week and was planning on trying Post Canyon... How are the conditions right now?

It took over a decade to get the tline bike park approved due to multiple lawsuits by the USFS and environmental groups. Meadows facing the same issue. Trail crew is heavily restricted and can’t even move a rock or dirt around without prior approval process that takes longer than the 3 months that the bike park is open. Re-align just got approved for a rebuild and they are adding 20 blue features to it. So far they have a couple 12ft tables a a few step downs with one that you can boost pretty deep. I also heard that the bike park manager was stepping down and the replacement is a dude who built up bachelor. Hopefully it gets better. Gondola also got approved so once that is complete the the grand plan says that they could be a park that connects tline and Summit ski area. Plans state that the summit ski area is gonna have a “slope style course.” It’s clear of snow longer and dirt is much better down there.

I am going to be in Hood River some where between July 18 and 21 just because i could see the historic Columbia river highway. i love riding the old railways and highways, but i also come from a bmx freestyle back ground, so i am going to hit all the trails that i can. probably going to hit the skate parks as well. thanks for the video man, it is much appreciated.

That’s Rad! I just got back in to cycling/mtb after a 20yr hiatus. So much has changed. Definitely want to try Hood. I’m assuming the trails are ranked like ski runs? I would for sure need to ease into it with green circle. Thanks for sharing!🤙

Oh you’re on a trail!

I moved away from Oregon 5 years ago, but moving back this Saturday! And I am JONESING for some Bend MTB trails!

Wow. The masks outside at the top of a mountain just kills me. My god. Other than that, amazing video. I used to ride there. Grew up in portland. Raced in a downhill event there one time and realized I was lucky to make it out alive. I wrote a few checks my skill level couldn’t cash. But so much fun.

Looks way better than Timberline! Just more variety and overall much more interesting to watch and ride.

How’s the clutch on the derailleur? I’m hoping to make may bike a bit quieter with this upgrade. I would be going from nx to X01, is the clutch much better?

Where is this park located?

Great video!

Great spot, we came up from Corvallis to check it out and loved the trails. Oregon has some of the best mountain biking trails in the world!

Cannonball is well worth the ride to the top.

I'm hoping to check this out this summer. The freeride section looks really fun, but maybe a little less enticing if you can't just lap it top-to-bottom. ✌️

I love riding the Greenhorn/Shoofly combo as a warmup on my mountain unicycle. Super fun!

Looks onewheel-able if I can find a non-busy day.

Can I use a new GX rear derraileur with a 10-52 X01 cassette, a X01 or a XX1 chain with a new GX cranckset? What do you think about this configuration? Is there a difference in terms of functionality between the new GX and the new X01 derraileurs?

Are they requiring masks for the chairlift...?

+4

no wonder why portland team is called trail blazers

hi. i am going there in June. can you show me this trail? 832-707-2778

what is your editing software and is it free?

By the way, XX1 chain lasts A LOT longer than XO1 chain, and I mean A LOT longer. Cheers

Nice review, buddy! I just ordered my 10-52 XO1 drivetrain ( minus the cranks)! I've tried them on some friends bikes, and they're much better than GX! I've owned GX for over a year, and believe me on that.

Nice video man! Looking forward to checking out some footage with the new camera. Hoping my hand will be healed enough to start riding again soon cause 4 weeks off the bike has been rough.

Keep shredding dude! subbed

good to watch someone who rides more like I do, are you using a gimbal? I prefer the non gimbal video's anyway thanks for sharing

I'll have to give it another shot cuz I was up there about 7-8 years ago and any trail not in the woods, which wasn't much, was more like rock bouncing since the rain has taken all dirt away.

Why didn’t you do that feature I did that feature and I am 9 the one on loa

yeah! 👌

hell yeah dude! i live in portland and i'm up at skibowl nearly every other day!. its a SUPER good place to learn general bike handling skills. it doesn't have a ton of variation but it has some of the gnarliest trails in the pacific northwest, no doubt. ridgeline to cannonball to pro line to cat II to firehydrant is the route the PNW cup takes place on and it's one of the most grueling, fastest dh races in the area. skibowl isn't the best place to snowboard or ski but when the summer rolls around, i'm up there 24/7. so sick to have such an awesome place so close to home! I take it this video was recorded near the beginning of the summer tho as the trails today (8/29/2020) were absolutely blown out and there were no damp trails in site.

3:01 Right here is where my friend broke his arm, Multiple fractures, also a fractured wrist, his arm was in a C shape, Also a possible concussion

I have done this loop many times. Thanks for the great video !

We were there Saturday the 15th. Ripping good times had by all.

The scenery is awesome. How long would you say the ride is from top to bottom?

Was there Saturday lol going this Saturday as well lol

Kelly I was watching these videos, and realized you were the guy I did a lap on the cone run with, last Sunday at Bachelor. Small world!! Your videos are great!!

Can you do a video of showing how to gear a mountain bike....that would help a lot to us the newbies!!! Ty

Bam 💥 🤙

Nice video. I like that one for after work too, except I usually head to Mitchell Ridge from Spaghetti and then do some Kleeway laps. Good choice in trucks too. Mine's black.

gonna need that helmet to.... I have a full faced Scorpion snell / dot. got some ideas though
