73 Years old Woman Mountain Bikes down Double Blacks trails!

[@profhortsunlover1536]

i'm 55, female, throwing myself downhill on a hardtail, love it. Love her!!! ❤🧡💛💙💜

[@vee2425]

As a female mountain biker in my 60's also living on the west coast, Betty is a huge inspiration! Thank you Remy and Betty, for this video. So many of the comments and insights rang true about technique, as well as mindset as we age. The nice thing about being an older rider, is that I don't feel a need to impress anyone anymore, and am confident enough to say "no" when I need to, so that I can enjoy the ride based on how I feel that day, work to continually improve, and feel a sense of accomplishment for the small wins. I'd love to ride with Betty but I don't know if I could keep up! :D

[@robertgeorge2833]

Yes, agreed whole heartedly about no need to impress anyone, nor bow to the pressure of doing stuff that is sketch. Although there's a fine line between honing one's skills and doing stuff beyond one's skills. Only one to impress is yourself, so keep that in mind when checking out that 5 foot drop.

[@johnchristopher5075]

It’s not about “keeping up”, it’s about “being with” and sharing the moment. I’m 57 and there is no way in hell, I’d be able to keep up with Betty but I’d welcome the opportunity to go riding with her and more importantly learning from her. The woman has got skills and just like “Dirty Harry” she knows her limitations. There are many younger riders who would do well learning from her example.

[@julielevesque2668]

I am a 47 year old mountain biker/downhill and 73 and still riding inspires me. Age is nothing but a number but I agree that the older we get...the less we have to prove. When I ride alone, I take less risks and the time I go is so early in the morning that no one is around in case I get injured. I used to think I needed to do the 6 foot gaps or jumps but not anymore. I don't mind just doing 2 foot kickers or drops...I still have fun without having something to prove to go bigger. I just want to have fun and it's just not as important as it used to be to go too extreme.

[@johnpeck5268]

I'm 73 too & I ride MBs, but I don't want to be inspired right into a wheel chair. I'll pass on black diamond trails. I've had plenty of broken bones already.

[@Missusri]

Obviously, it is a matter of what you like to do in life. At 71, my goal is just being comfortable in and enjoy what I do. This is something wonderful you do alone at any age; the more experienced you are the less the need to impress others. People say bicycling is good for us! I love the fresh air and I like the ability of maneuvering the bike. Betty does not need to impress; but she is so awesome!

[@peterwissenijssen4773]

I am a 72 female MTB rider from Rotorua New Zealand , love this video ! Well done.

[@JamieTheSassenachLass]

Age is a number when you're in this kind of shape and doing this type of hobby! You're amazing!

[@rosarioborboa8561]

48 year old female and purchased my first mtn bike and riding trails. I’m having fun while crashing, bruising, laughing at myself while learning to maneuver on these awesome trails. My friends are patient with this older gal as I learn techniques and improve. It’s a lot of fun and I am hooked! Love this video. Thank you. What an inspiration for me. 🙏🥰

[@nicks2716]

Wow. I’m 51, and took up mountain biking for my 50th birthday. When I started, I admit fearing that I’d be too old to really enjoy or commit to the sport. I was happy to learn that I - WAS - WRONG!!! Even better, inspirations like Betty show me what still lies ahead. Thank you Betty! Thank you Remy! Great video!

[@reverentalexanderchezeley-6367]

Yep me to. I took it up at age 49 last June, watched s few you tube videos. Practiced for six hours s day, six day's a week. After three weeks of hardcore practice and many injuries coming off, I was sending safely over 15 foot gap jumps. Then again have adhd so I have much lower fear levels to dangerous things in life, I get a bit of nervous energy but that's it. I don't get afraid of danger. Well done.

[@grammyonthetrail]

My husband and I started riding 5 years ago (at ages 67 and 65, respectively). Betty's comments about working on skills and improving technique definitely resonate. We are setting PRs on Strava and "competing" in the 70-74 age group. Betty is proof that we are not crazy for mountain biking "at our age." Thank you and Betty for the awesome video!

[@constantinosschinas4503]

Not only a good rider, but a charming sweetheart she is :)

[@nilsnilsnilsify]

I love that comment about halfway through: "There is no correlation between risk and fun." Such a great perspective. So inspiring to hear Betty talking about being excited to get better and learn new things!

[@milospop8089]

I purchased my first MTB last summer an E-bike hardtail..I love it! I ride to places off road I can't walk to, I stop and enjoy the views . I " race "...down the rough tracks, I've " cartwheeled " a few times..I love it!.... I'm 73 going on 20...Life's wonderful again!

[@mtblover]

I love it when she says:"I can't do this anymore" and then takes a line that many people will bail on in any case. Betty, I wish I can ride like you. You are amazing!!!!!!! 🍻

[@SsmAnyfeSt]

Yeah at the beginning I was like Remy, wow sh'es really good, taking all those little drops, roots and everything....but then at like the middle of the video, wtf all those steeps she was riding!!!! Those looked really steep on gopro so for real, I'm not even sure I would ride everything that she did!! :O I can't imagine riding trails like this with my mom, that would be so cool!!! But I would be wayyyy to nervous for her! haha

[@mtbwithtfb]

She is definitely inspiring Remy. I'm 65 and I hope I'm able to ride well into my 70s. Go betty!

[@lossantoscity3249]

You're Considered Super old before. But now times are changing we have 60+ here in north shore doing Black Trails. It's so inspiring. Before when you turned 60 you just wait for your time to leave this life. LOL

I'm really vibing on the respect you gave her. This is the type of stuff we need more of

[@JamieTheSassenachLass]

[@earthymom68]

Merci for filming this, Rémy ! I am 54 and just re-started mtb-ing, after dealing with osteoarthritis and a knee replacement, and this was very inspiring! I knew about Betty, but had not seen video of her yet (I live in the Lower Mainland.) She is amazing! I am not yet at her skill level, but... #goals !

[@craigmccallum2202]

Old guy biker here (66). Really wonderful the way you helped give her the confidence to take on that gap. I have no doubt that it was really appreciated and made her day. As we get older, and our physical powers diminish, it gets harder and harder to maintain our confidence. Good for you to do that.

[@freendeed8410]

Absolutely. I've often said that I'll ride until I can't. I'm still doing 20+ gaps and 10ft+ drops at 55. The transition scout takes good care of me.🤙

[@yarkmates3409]

Such an inspiring woman , great watching you work with and build up Betty’s confidence, as she definitely has the technical ability’s . Thank you 🤟

Remy, as a 59 year old rider, I’m impressed beyond belief. I’m obviously impressed with Betty. I’m also impressed with you and how much respect you are showing to Betty. Between you and Yo, Yo coaching kids. You two are my new favorite riders. Thanks for sharing and keep shredding 👍

[@der_hahnenkamm]

When age is just a number! Very good riding! Stay healthy, young woman 👍

[@RajinderYadav]

Until you brake a bone and realize you're not going to heal like you're 20, 30s. This is just unnecessary risk at an older age, it's not fear but just logic that makes me questions this sport. If I break a bone, do I want to be out for like 6 to 12 months healing and not be able to enjoy a active life doing "normal" things. Liking wiping my own butt? I recall slamming my ribs snowboarding and losing an edge. It felt like a house kicked in my ribs and I was out for the year and that was maybe 20 years ago.

[@razorsharp9850]

@@RajinderYadav to each their own probably. One decides to live life with a little more risk, others go different. It is also what Rémy said; naturally when aging the level of fear increases. You should do you, all is good.

[@onlyfoolriding8223]

Betty rides the Northshore at 73. My mom at 73 insists on being dropped off at every retail front door.

[@efkesfietsen]

Wow What a inspiration. Great respect to Betty. I am 57 and I started biking a year ago. Due health problems I needed to change my lifestyle and started biking for fysical fitness and fun. I live in Netherlands and we don't have trails like you do in Canada and U.S. . I wil be scared to death to ride like how Betty does. Thank you so much for this beautifull and motivating video.

[@paydirtmine]

I just turned 50 this summer and there are times when I feel rushed riding because I feel like I’m simply running out of time. I know that is silly but watching this video and reading the comments, I find a little comfort in knowing that my mentality is my biggest obstacle, not age. Thanks for posting!🎉

[@remymetailler]

You can do it!

[@CenturyRide]

I know. I'm 56 and Betty has shown me there are many more years of mtb'g ahead! It's only now I'm really developing more skills. Also doing all the things to age well (strength & stability, prioritizing sleep, etc.).

[@gregoryf9299]

And for any non-Trail Forks readers: 5th Horseman is 1 of 14 double-blacks in Cypress. Here’s the description (TF writeups tend to be far more casual than reality, especially for north shore, btw): “Very steep with steep mandatory rock features with high consequence sections. Contains natural and man-made TTFs. Not a beginners trail.” #RESPECT!!

[@abstraddic0442]

I love her! I wish that she would start a channel. keep going 👍👍👍

[@lovesafrica111]

Awesome video & truly inspiring. You're the woman Betty!!! I'm a female & I've been mountain biking in Colorado since I was 34 & am now 62 years old. Five years ago, we moved to north central WI & I'm now mountain biking up to the top of our local ski mountain (non-stop) & get asked (insulted, laughing) all the time, if my bike is electronic which of course it is not. It's a Trek Rogue (12) speeds & other than my hubby who is (15) years younger, do not have any females to ride with, not even seeing young ladies climbing it, so to see this 73 year old tear down black trails is just great. Thanks for sharing with us. If you can do it at 73, I have no intention of stopping at any age either.

5th Horseman is arguably one of the most difficult trails on Cypress - which is unquestionably the most difficult of the three North Shore mountains. Video will never do these trails justice. The GoPro effect is real! Great riding Betty & Remy!

[@juliemartin2614]

This video was VERY inspiring! Thank you both! I turn 60 in September and started back mountain biking last year because my grandson needed a partner! I was very nervous at first, but am regaining confidence with each ride. My grandson encourages me to try things that I otherwise may never try. The sport of mountain biking is all-inclusive, amazing, and teaches many life lessons!

I'm blown away by Betty - she could definitely teach me a thing or two! And I'm also loving all the commenters of people my age (54) and older enjoying my favourite sport. There's such an appetite in the 40+ mtb crowd for videos like this. Thanks, Remy! Love your channel.

[@remymetailler]

Thank you

[@RajinderYadav]

Just go at you own pace and level up slowly. No one needs to teach you, it's all natural if you just go with the flow. The brain in an incredible instrument if you learn to trust it. Your brain will begin to see patterns and how to navigate terrains with more experience.

[@johnyates6753]

This lady is amazing!!! Approaching 50 I often wonder how long we will be able to do the things we love for. Betty, you are an inspiration....and very very cool x x

[@revzombie]

Betty is an inspiration for older men and women alike, as an over 50 mountain biker from the UK and suffer with a number of illnesses Inc lower back spondylosis and c.o.p.d, biking keeps me going and helps with the depression I get from the pain I can be in on a daily basis, granted some days I'm physically unable to ride but the days I can I take full advantage of every minute im out, even in the rain.

[@artemisxw8708]

Absolutely love this!, I first rode in Whistler in 2016 and I was 51. Thinking I was too old but I met my dear American friend Nancy who was 60 and we rode together. It's inspiring to have amazing women like Nancy and Betty show it's possible to keep riding. Because I love it and it's so great for your mind, body and soul. Thank you!

[@jcsrst]

I am a 60m year old female and I am positive she would smoke me on any downhill! What an inspiration she is! Thanks for sharing your ride with her 😊

[@bikerideventures9754]

There's a common sentiment out there with many people sadly, that as you hit 40 roughly you have a tendency to automatically slow down and should just take it easy. As long as a person stays fit and does the activities they live regularly, there is no reason to slow down or avoid your favorite sports or activities. The only thing that should slow a person down is injuries, not your age. Ride until you simply cannot because your body won't let you. Good on you Betty!

[@aidanwoods1845]

Hearing her be honest and ok with what she can and can't do anymore is really inspiring. Some elderly people in my life need to hear that

[@powdertrax9742]

My buddies and I started mtn biking 38 years to give us something to do during the off season from snowboarding, we’re all 55 now and ride weekly winter and summer. Whether it’s mtn biking or boarding we run into young guys on the hills or chair lifts and they always trip when they find out our ages, mostly because they have a tough time keeping up. One thing I like to stress to them is if you really love the sport and don’t seriously injure yourself, you’ve got at least 40 more years of riding.
