Glad you enjoy it. It’s definitely not obvious. I found it watching other people’s routes on Strava.

I’ve been on the SRT extension into king of Prussia if that’s what you’re referring to (there are videos on the channel of it). I’ve also done the lower chapel trails on the other side of the RR tracks (videos of that too, but they were in terrible shape this year).

Yeah the blue trail can be a bit much for a hard tail, esp depending on your tire setup.

Fat bike will certainly do the trick. I was on my normal setup with Bontrager XR4 29 x 2.4. Can get a little squirrely but does the trick if you're not trying to set land speed records.

I always wear knee socks, more for briars etc. I also usually wear shinpads as I have a talent for kicking up branches and biting them with my pedals.

More intermediate. There are some easier trails but many tend to be quite rocky.

Not sure. I’ve only ever been on those trails once. Based on what I saw I don’t think they’re ridden a lot, and it’s probably ad hoc maintenance by locals.

Awesome video! Nice to see the trails through someone else's eyes and I learned an entry to side by the apartments. As for maintaining, I think only the wildlife ever maintain it. Some of the riders clear the fallen trees as well.

Appreciate it. Yeah, I think its important that people can see a "normal rider" on trails which includes falls, getting hung up, and walking sections that are above the current skill level.

It was incredibly dry, to the point of causing some problems. I had to do some extra speed checking on the downhills but it did make sections by the reservoir easier.

Completely agree, though I think the same can be said for alot of trail systems. With that said, BAMBA and other volunteers do a great job of maintaining the more heavily used trails.

I have a GoPro 10 on a chest mount set to record 4k at 60 fps. I use an external battery pack that I keep in my back / hip pack depending on which I’m wearing.

I agree very technical trail , more of a hiking trail to me .

Thank you. I tend to put those kinds of things in the descriptions. Mostly I just don’t care to spend the extra time for the additional recording and editing. This video is “bluish” because it’s the blue trail but not quite as I deviate onto other more interesting (to me) side trails.

Glad you like them. Orange trail coming tomorrow.

Also my dad has a bike shop In doylestown if u need bike repairs or new bike

I was actually there this past Friday. Videos going up from that trip (part of the red, blue and orange) over the next several days. There are also numerous other videos I have posted from previous trips and the other trails. I really like dogwood and honeysuckle.

It was amazing!! Man, that last hill is tough! Lots of food trucks. Sorry you couldn’t make it

It was amazing!! Man, the last hill is tough. Lots of food trucks and kind people. Sorry you were sick.

Definitely alot of fun. Too bad you couldn't make it but the turn out was great so I can see it being an annual thing. Also hoping the great turn out encourages www.morekidsonbikespa.org/ to host more events like this to support their awesome organization.

It was great meeting you @blaketart496. Unfortunately I messed up the camera and didn't get video of the race. Look forward to hearing from you about doing video for other courses you design!

This area is really good, especially for people starting out IMO. The trails provide opportunity for progressing from basics to some intermediate stuff. Depending how comfortable she is on rocky / rooty tech you may want to skip South Park to begin.

@@bikemontcopa I live on Mt Penn and ride it all the time so I had her do Twisted Sister. She's a better rider than she thinks and she keeps improving...thanks for your videos, they're great!

@bikemontcopa thank you ..keep up the great videos

This one is pretty timid. It really gets going on climbs. Checkout Mo's Path climb kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZzQpIKQnt-Afqs where I get near my redline (195).

Didn’t check the route I had planned on my garmin. I should have stayed on the trail. This was my first time on that side of the river so I didn’t know any better.

Glad it’s useful for you and hopefully others as well.

Leo?

100% There are several regulars, including one of the leads that are on e-bikes.

@@bikemontcopa Awesome! ill see you guys on tuesday at birdsboro

Great! I plan to be at that ride as well.

I’ve never seen anyone swimming only kayaks and similar. With that said I’ve not seen any signs forbidding it.

Glad they’re helpful. That’s one of the reasons I post these. I do the same with videos posted by others before I go to new places.

Thanks; I’d done the top half once before. This was my first run on the full length. Rolled most of the big stuff but the air will come with time. Need some experience on “smaller” features. I hear trexler might be the place for that. It’s on my todo list for this year. Also thanks on the climbing, I feel like it’s one of my strongest skills at this point.

This was the first (and only time so far) I've been on the Wiss. I don't remember one section to the next very well. There was definitely lots of chunk on the majority of the trails. Generally speaking I tend to do well on techy climbs. Most of the stuff I walked was because I lost traction (probably from picking a bad line), and the grade is enough once you lose momentum you're toast. The flats and descents were all doable from what I remember outside of some things I couldn't see well enough to know the line (or couldn't tell if there was a blind drop). I tend to be over-cautious for safety as alot of trails are first time for me. I'm also solo 95% of the time, and I'm often riding when there aren't alot of other people around if something goes sideways.

Generally the trails in this part of the park tend not to drain well. This one and dogwood tend to get the muddiest.

@@bikemontcopa - I did all three of the “side loops” in that area this morning. Dogwood is bad, rainbow was OK, and the Artery / Bar Check loop area was 95% dry…

Those two are definitely nice as a combo. Especially if you need a break before climbing back to the top of the mountain.
