[@TimothyM]

Hey BCpov , what camera are you using while riding? You're editing looks amazing!

[@BockaufBiken]

Awesome! Every day a new banger video! Great stuff! Bk vs Bc should be a channel on its own ✌️

[@BCpov]

haha, sounds like a not half bad idea!

[@callumwatson9825]

Liking this brokeback mountain bike camping trip vibe including sunsets, country music and flowers! 🌺 🤘🏽

[@BCpov]

Hahaha, the flowers are the best

[@marcm2084]

Warning: this video is a call to take your bike and ride these magical landscapes. Amazing video Eric!!

[@BCpov]

haha, i wanna go baaaaaccckk!!

[@CaliradoKid]

This is still one of my favorite series of mountain biking videos of ALL TIME. It really makes me want to plan out a bike packing trip. That's one of my personal goals and hopefully I'll be doing it soon!

[@calivino88]

The intro with the music and narration felt like a beginning of a sony RPG game. SOOOOO COOL.

[@BCpov]

haha, i would play this game!

[@alfonsogomez9770]

Epic scenery, epic day culminating with some friendly people offering company and fire, awesome.

[@BCpov]

Beautiful surroundings, and the sun makes it even more special. The music in the video is really great too!

[@BCpov]

One word to describe that scenery - wow! Nice job on the edit too!

[@magnifiresrealm]

Great video. Could tell lots of time and love was put into this!

[@BCpov]

Thanks Magnifire, i definitely spent a bit of time on this one!

[@AdamBromell]

This might be my favourite, yet. The way you slide in and out of using music at the right moments is great. Can't wait for Day 2!

[@BCpov]

Thanks adam! Inspired by RDR for the first one :)

[@AdamBromell]

I didn't want to call it out but I got that entering-Mexico vibe ;) Good shit.

[@wreed3395]

This is really an awesome edit! I felt like I was riding along with you. And I didn’t get DROPPED! Good job, really enjoyed that.

[@BCpov]

Haha, you'll never get dropped on one of my vids!

[@razmtb5028]

Incredible trip guys. Thanks for posting.

[@BCpov]

We loved it! Thanks for watching!

[@muddypawsadventurer7775]

Beautiful, one of the best videos I've seen in a long time. Eric, your choice of music is excellent. The Bluegrass style reminded me of Firefly... one of my faves....

[@BCpov]

Thanks for watching muddy! And becoming a patron!

[@stanolauko]

I like your bikepacking videos the most. It's the adventure part that gives the biking part a additional value, that I enjoy.

[@kevinwilleford7876]

Man Eric your edits are going next level dude! The musical additions on this one were perfect for setting the overall mood of the video! Awesome!

[@BCpov]

Thanks so much kevin! Knew I had to do something special for this one!

[@Birdmusic77]

So awesome! That sunset in background. Love the content you guys are doing together great idea.

[@BCpov]

We were chasing it!

[@TheLoamRanger]

But will they make it to Oregon City?!? 😂 What an epic ride guys. Eric, a screen grab from the original file at about the 10:10 mark would make for an incredible print!

[@BCpov]

Hahaha, Brian died of dysentery.

[@TheLoamRanger]

I assumed listeria, but close enough.

[@straightnobraker4677]

This is some of the most beautiful footage! Especially at like 7:42 with the sun and the wildflowers. Man, that makes me smile. Good stuff guys

[@BCpov]

Thanks SNB! Had a great time making this one!

[@tronsquid8175]

[@BCpov]

[@maz_mtb3266]

This was an amazing video. I really enjoy the fast and rowdy trails but every once in a while a nice back country ride is a good change of pace. Really looking forward to the rest of the videos from this ride!

[@BCpov]

Thanks for watching! Rest of the vids are out now!

[@mikebuerger]

That's a beautiful video! Great vibes at the end with those camping folks.🤙

Thanks Outback! So stoked to meet those folks at the end of the ride!

[@BikesTrailsandGreenways]

Eric, you guys keep putting out a better video each time! Man that was a tough haul with plenty of water! Great job

[@BCpov]

Glad you enjoyed the map! Helps with context I think!

[@thorstenmueller713]

[@BCpov]

Thanks for visiting my channel thai! and thanks for watching!

[@andyginther8562]

[@straightnobraker4677]

[@circuitbreaker77]

So many thumbs up for this one! thanks for taking us along on the adventure.

[@BCpov]

Thanks for watching!

[@Strenki-real]

What an adventure! Thanks for doing this and I have best footage to watch over the winter when I cannot ride. You saved me last winter, you are saving me now and will always watch your videos :D Edit: that country music haha ... epic!

[@phantomrider86]

Eric, great video, amazing scenery and awesome music choice !! I am a late finding your channel, found through this collaboration with Brian. I am really enjoying the footage and yourself and Brian are down-to-earth guys. Great stuff !!

[@BCpov]

Thanks for visiting from brian's channel! Hopefully we can do this collab again in the future!

[@scotti_wan_kenobi]

What beautiful scenery to spend a few days in. I'm so jealous. I'm playing catch up on your last few weeks of videos and this is the best yet.

[@gap1967uk]

Excellent video. Liked the music. Keep them coming please. Best yet

[@BCpov]

Thanks Gap! The rest are out now!

[@gregs7562]

Wow. That is simply stunning

[@BCpov]

Thanks Greg!

[@gregs7562]

BCpov I said it on BKXC 's channel already but I reckon you guys win the Internet this year with this series of films, can't stop watching them.

[@P4P5]

You people are gonna love these episodes! Extended cuts on Patreon are well worth the watch!

[@BCpov]

Thanks Aleš!

[@knordberg]

That looked like some sketchy route-finding. Love you guys collaborations. Tase have been such an awesome series of videos.

[@BCpov]

A bit of walking around in a swamp, haha. Overall not too bad, just that one spot I think.

[@278films]

I even dont know what to say, its just so amazing.

[@BCpov]

Definitely took my breath away in person!

[@cheezdoodle1949]

I really liked that Google Earth overview, and the musical interludes were pretty great (usually not a fan of those). I feel like I gotta add this to my BC bucket list haha

[@BCpov]

thanks cheez! i think most mtbrs should try this place out!

[@billyyong4711]

Good video man ! Music, conversations, sceneries...... etc. Bravo ! Anxiety healer ! I enjoyed it from the begin to the end !

[@v1d300]

Day 1 was beautiful. Really scenic trail. And your music selection is spot on. Good job with that. You got yourself a new subscriber buddy.

[@josephbarrans2909]

Eric you bring joy to my life withb these videos i want to move to BC more and more every time i watch.

[@BCpov]

If you can, you should!

[@mtbshenanigans755]

Best 3 day bike-packing video I’ve seen, amazing!

[@BCpov]

thanks mtb! I hope to make some more!

[@blue77ob]

Beautiful place guys

[@BCpov]

We loved it!

[@MTBMOM]

Really enjoyed this! The intro is genius.👍

[@BCpov]

Thanks mtb mom!

[@nicholasvazqueztell719]

Man that was one of if not the most beautiful bike vids I’ve seen. It put a longing in my heart to go! Great camera settings, angle, and music appropriate segment. Bravo!

[@BCpov]

If you can go, you should!

[@michael.finally]

On both my trips so far to the Chilcotins, they never seemed real. They're so far removed and different from everything else in BC it's so nice to spend a few days there. That Cinnabar trail is one for the books!

[@BCpov]

love cinnabar! it seems like such a special unique place doesn't it? I wonder if there is anything like it somewhere else in the world!

[@romanski-g9n]

Amazing! One of your best videos so far - I hope you know how privileged you are to live in such a beautiful country. :) Looking forward to the following episodes ...

[@BCpov]

Very lucky to live here! So many beautiful places in the world though!

[@bikerdhill]

this video series is blowing my mind, it's the cat's pajamas for sure

[@BCpov]

thanks biker! I loved making it for you guys!

[@alfonsoespinosar]

Great job man! I really enjoyed this video, especially the sunlight from the second half of the video on the meadow. Music choice was great also. Keep it up...saludos from Mexico!

[@BCpov]

Thanks Alfonso! I spent a lot of time trying to find the perfect music, glad it worked!

[@TheDp400]

Dude that was so epic! Your enthusiasm for the beauty of the area was great! This series is one of the best Ive ever seen! I am totally loving the epic back country and off the beaten path trails. I am going to make it happen either this year or next after watching these stunning rides. We have it gear hear around the Santa Cruz area but that is next level beauty!! Thank you!

[@BCpov]

So many beautiful spots all over the world! Defnitely wanna do some more in the chilcotins though!

[@Shawn-wt4kh]

Quietly epic.

[@BCpov]

Thanks shawn :)

[@MountainBiking_Bulgaria]

Like the edit of the intro, quite cinematic - good job

[@BCpov]

Thanks Martin!

[@sigridw.8822]

So nice! Epic ride and video!

[@BCpov]

Thanks Sigrid!

[@RawEpics]

I was bikepacking in this area two years ago too: I have great memories of it! And yes, bear spray always within easy reach :D Can't wait for Days 2 and 3

[@BCpov]

luckily we didn't need it this trip! but definitely good to have. I've seen water bottle holder mounts for them

[@kevinlooney8200]

That's what summer adventure is all about. That's Gods country. I will be doing that this weekend 😀

[@BCpov]

Have fun out there!

[@TheBrunohop7]

Perfect video on the perfect place, well done guys!

[@BCpov]

Thanks Bruno, loved the place for sure!

[@mtbway4302]

There's this nostalgia-ness of this video that brings a tear to my eye..haha

[@BCpov]

it brought a tear to mine too!

[@nahbrah12345]

Freaking awesome. You and Brian make a killer alternating series. You should collaborate more often!

[@BCpov]

yes we should, im sure itll happen again!

[@Descenter1976]

That world map start was EPIC, Im from Denmark, and its nice to se where exactly the place you are riding is.

[@BCpov]

Glad you liked that, takes a bit of work, but its worth it for context :)

[@goneforwater7547]

This is fantastic can't wait for the rest 👊

[@BCpov]

thanks ridge rider! day 3 is all about the ridge!

[@MBdrummer3288]

Oh my god! Heading into the sun like that. Absolutely gorgeous.

[@BCpov]

I thought so too at the time!

[@hobidolap]

you both are the best creators on youtube...

[@BCpov]

Thanks so much babur!

[@headoverbars8750]

I absolutely love flow trails... I love jumps too, some days I feel like a lift and jump line is all I need in life... However, what drew me to mountain biking is the adventure.... The idea of exploring the wilderness is awesome, just complete freedom to me... until I learned we cannot do that in the wilderness in the US which is really stupid but I am sure still plenty of long trails are available for bike packing still... This is a phenomenal video guys. I so want to do this type of riding.

[@tmc7540]

Great video! Glad BKXC connected with you so I could add another MTB KZbinr to my busy life decompression KZbin binge watching time.

[@BCpov]

haha, glad to help out!

[@505Lights]

Very impressed with your channel so far! Love the music and the scenery in this video, you sir have a new subscriber. :)

[@BCpov]

Thanks so much for the sub B! Hope to see you in the comments again!
