HELI-FUN 🇨🇦 Mountain Biking Mt. Cartier with Wandering Wheels

[@mtbrat7155]

Lovely trail i love the sound of riding soo much its Unreal! Big props Brian! Greets Steph

[@bkxc]

Yeah, the sound was great on this one!

[@MythBiggzzzz]

That's the beautiful British Columbia at its finest! Happy to have you experience the single track adventures in our Province @BKXC

[@bkxc]

It was my pleasure!!

[@3579Wines]

Soooo Sweet! I don't mean just the Heli-ride up there but rather that the whole mountain is gorgeous. From the top all the way to the forest bit, absolutely stunning, what a great ride!

[@bkxc]

Yeah, the whole package was amazing

[@OutdoorGold]

Congrats Brian! I think you're the first to shoot a POV on this trail where we, diehard viewers, can actually enjoy the view because of the wicked amount of smoke in BC. Great video and even better timing for the nature of the year. I guess your summer bike plan ended up being perfect!

[@bkxc]

We got so dang lucky with the weather! It was great.

[@JoaquinBridges]

Holy sweet Jesus that is freaking badassery!! And Matt climbed up that trail what a beast. Loved it!

[@bkxc]

It was legendary!!

[@lewiswalker4163]

your videos inspire me to ride

[@MezmeriTV]

same here

[@bkxc]

That's what it's all about!

[@BrianSchade2016]

Good day to you, Mr. Kennedy! Another fine ride from the land of BKXC. And a helicopter ride to boot! Let's roll! 1:43 - Man, there is barely enough room for the chopper to land! 2:12 - Sphincter factor; 11 2:27 - (speaking television director jargon) ready scenery...and... 2:30 - ...cue scenery. 2:47 - once again, we have a body of water. You just can't seem to get away from riding someplace that has water. You are blessed. 😀 5:05 - That set of rocks looked like it could've bucked you off if you weren't careful. 8:21 - How funny you would mention Nate Hills not talking. I was starting to think that it was getting quiet for you. Not used to not hearing commentary as you ride. I'm guessing this trail requires that much more concentration. 12:20 - Yeah, I have problems with coming out of the pedals, too. I just upgraded my flats to Specialized Bennies. These things have some pretty aggressive pegs. I've only road them once so far (at the time of this writing), but they seem to be doing well to keep my feet on the pedals better. We'll see. 13:48 - I'm hearing some nature in the background. Birds and what sound like water. I may be imagining that, but that's what it seems anyway. Gives me the impression you're riding through a rain forest, almost. Oh, wow! How about MTBing through a rain forest?! THAT would be an adventure! 14:04 - Whoa! Don't fall to the right! 15:53 - I just realized, you've been following your guide this whole time. We haven't seen or heard from the others in your group. Is it just the two of you for this? 16:58 - Oh wait, were they ahead of you guys this whole time? That was fun. Seemed like a fairly technical trail that even I might be able to take on. The helicopter ride looked fun, too. I've been on a couple of those in my life. So I am curious what criteria you use to edit your videos for your Patreon cuts vs. your KZbin cuts? How do you decide what is premium content and what is for those of us who haven't yet been able to join the Patreon bandwagon? Thanks for sharing. Stay upright and keep the rubber side down.

[@bkxc]

Hahaha sphincter factor 11 throughout even when it looked tame!!

[@phantomrider86]

Fantastic trail ! Techy, flowy and a ton of fun !

[@bkxc]

It was a blast!

[@ZillaYT]

Your best vid I've watched so far as far as Mother Nature, the reason I ride. Thanks!

[@bkxc]

Awesome!!

[@philmtb121]

Epic- on the bucket list for sure- when i'm brave enough in many ways!!!!!!!

[@bryansuperduke1290r]

Thinks this is one of the places I've liked to look of most, another great series.Slowly getting caught up after a few months missing your travel videos.

[@bkxc]

NICE! You're making good time

[@PeterCPRail8748]

I know I said this before but best trail so far on your world biking adventure. Heli biking is the best, but imagine hiking the 7 hours just to get to ride down the entire 7000 feet. That would be a well earned and savoured ride. From top of the world to the valley epic.

[@bkxc]

Yeah this was the best of the week, no doubt!

[@RedWingsninetyone]

Definitely agree when it comes to the tree. I did that on a local trail, although I didn't have as nice of a saw. I have no idea who maintains that trail (if anyone) so I thought I'd give back.

[@bkxc]

Yeah, I definitely need to get in the habit of giving MORE back!

[@EvanaHuq]

Ahahaha when you mentioned Nate Hills❤ Love it

[@roberte1890]

another great video to watch over a morning cup of coffee. Keep them coming Brian

[@bkxc]

Awesome, thanks Robert!

[@janmaly1591]

This is epic! That section of bridge-over-river crossing into steep uphill reminds me of Downieville.

[@bobbymoranda6729]

Brian, your riding and videos have gone to another level this summer! AWESOME WORK! Thank you for sharing! Coach Mo

[@bkxc]

Thanks so much Mo!

[@markkitashima3498]

Being at work has just got better. Thanks for the video Brain.

[@bkxc]

Nice!

[@johngiannone736]

Absolutely awesome!! Gotta be one of my favorite videos so far!!

[@bkxc]

Thanks Johhn!!

[@nofrontbrakes]

Man, the views! I have to admit, I did get a little woozy looking over the edge with you. After that descent, I don't imagine being off-camber phases you anymore.

[@bkxc]

There's only been one or two exposed parts that have ever scared me, but it's legit "fear for my life" scary!

[@waltrobinson407]

This vid keeps calling me back! One of my favs no doubt.

[@bkxc]

Man, this trail is calling me back too!

[@waltrobinson407]

BKXC I show this vid off no doubt!

[@tdotcom_lee2537]

What an amazing trail Brian you have ridden some epic routes this year happy days......

[@bkxc]

It's been a good ride!

[@Tomzzzzzz]

That's one bad ass trail! Reminds me a little of Downieville, but more intense! You're hitting so many sweet spots this summer, you must be in mountain biking heaven. 😊

[@bkxc]

Yeah, it's been an amazing run of trails!

[@camodudemtbh7594]

2:37 Now on top of the world bro, damn awesome.

[@bkxc]

😁👍

[@Chedda_chz]

You out-did yourself on this one - that is the sickest trail I think i've seen yet. Damn I want to do this ride!

[@bkxc]

One of the best ever!

[@mrjodoe]

yes guys, get a (folding) SAW. 11:01 he has a large folding version from silky. I can recommend silky, but be warned: this blade is only made for pulling, if you push you will bend the blade and it will stuck itself if you try to cut something again.

[@jecarn129]

That was fricken amazing. You were flying down that off-camber for days trail man. Total props to you Bryan! Also to ride with the guys who help create the trail, total epic trip! 🤘🤘🤘

[@bkxc]

Yep, it was such a blast, it never ends!!

[@ThunderStruckMTB]

"1st human on human crash" - literal lol! Way cool ride in so many ways!

[@bkxc]

Haha yep! Thanks coach!

[@pc9062]

Now, that is incredible. Excellent, love it Bryan! This video is truly EPIC.

[@bkxc]

Thanks dude!

[@craigevo6458]

Truly epic mtb journey, one for the bucket list!

[@bkxc]

Hope you make it happen!

[@cameront8562]

Most jaw dropping ride yet

[@martinm711]

That was a special one! Super fun to watch

[@bkxc]

I agree, thanks!

[@buddydoeswhat6147]

You can spend your money on a lot of things in this world, but I don't know if you could beat this..Love It.

[@bkxc]

Glad that message came across!!

[@bowwave59]

That's the best trail ever. I love the little climb at the start. Excellent 👍👍👍

[@bkxc]

It was one of the best, no doubt!

[@natepalmer5714]

this is epic! definitely need to do this some day

[@IIMRCLEANIII]

That was BAD ASSS!!! Glad youre both safe after that contact. I LOL'd a little after the crash, "got a nice break lever up your ass". I think I'm gonna steal that for when people get pissed off. LOL Thanks Brian I would put that in the EPIC Category.

[@bkxc]

Hahaha, yes!! Glad you liked it dude

[@brianfurtaw7893]

This is a fantastic trail, Brian you are a mad man.

[@bkxc]

Thanks dude!!

[@toddkoelmel]

Thanks Brian - best video yet! Just awesome.

[@bkxc]

NICE! Love hearing that

[@sdpy15]

Lol, I summited Mt Begbie this summer (the one you pointed out) and it was an amazing mountaineering adventure. I love your content of this trip, come back some time soon!

[@bkxc]

Thanks dude!! I really want to get back to Revvy

[@edstud1]

That is one gnarly trail!

[@chantalbedard404]

Wow ! Ça donne le goût de vivre une aventure comme ça!

[@MrMad333]

Hello again Let me tell you ... that was a very nice riding thank you so much for those moments ... so much fun ¡¡¡ Congratulations Hasta la Proxima Amigo ¡¡ Greetings from Jalisco, Mexico

[@bkxc]

So glad you enjoyed it Humberto!

[@briancardinal1674]

dude i totally did that cleaned up the trails from branches in the way and other stuff to make the trail more fun and visible

[@mikieson]

WOW...this is super hardcore man!! really RAD!!

[@bkxc]

One of the best!

[@michaelneuwirth2880]

Your an "XC" rider and you take a hell to the top of a mountain.

[@bkxc]

Hahaha, you can do the alternative!

[@raynercardenas298]

Just the ride up to the mountain is good for me what a trail

[@bkxc]

Thanks dude!@

[@justin.tamiyagarage]

What great colors throughout the vid!!

[@bkxc]

Thanks Justin!!

[@justin.tamiyagarage]

Thanks for the reply man. Big fan here from the Philippines. About to subscribe to your Patreon Page. Keep riding!

[@menuraliyanage3525]

I love this channel! The trails that u do are so entertaining!

[@bkxc]

Thanks so much!

[@FlowFinderUSA]

that flow at 15:50 was awesome!

[@bkxc]

Some of the best, non stop!

[@snazari1994]

How much does it cost for the heli ride up there?

[@alanramirez7368]

snazari1994 a lot

[@bkxc]

Not sure because this was a 5 day trip, all-inclusive, but I updated the link to Wandering Wheels in the description. If you want to do it, hit them up!

[@ShadeAkeley]

depends on the flight time to get up there, but typically on such an heli (which is an AS350D Astar) the operating cost per hour would be around 800$, subject to change to the goodwill of the company/pilot. Doing it alone would clearly cost quite a lot even if it's a 15min flight. But usually the Astar can take up to 5 passenger, but count 4, maybe 3 maximum because of the added payload for the bike rack and bikes themselves. Well, short answer, a lot. :)

[@earamos118]

200 CAD

[@Atomb]

this plus tax. not a bad deal.

[@chrisgeorge510]

The mountain tip pinch cracked me up!!!

[@bkxc]

Hahaha

[@CabinetOfCuriosity]

I was more afraid of heights until I started indoor climbing. So I could ride that ridge easily (*With harness, rope, belayer, …) I think this is the closet I’ve seen you ride behind someone on a trail. Almost ended in good times more than once. :)

[@bkxc]

Haha yes, full rope action!

[@timinno]

Dudeeeee, you're providing us with some awesome content! Keep it up and thanks.

[@bkxc]

Thanks man!! Glad you're into it!

[@orcellod1592]

You mastered those Endo turns at the right time. So many sketchy switchbacks at the top of that ride. Working on that part of my riding as well so I can do that run again. "Handle bar up your ass"... classic

[@bkxc]

Haha "mastered" is going a little far, but I'm getting better!!

[@jevgeniardassov]

Great fun. Gnarly stuff. The Edge was scary... 😰

[@bkxc]

Yeah man, pretty scary stuff!

[@BrianVaughn]

I still remember that ride you picked up the dirty diaper from the trail. Really cool trail.

[@mikebussart2575]

Brian Vaughn I remember that also, one of his first few videos.

[@bkxc]

Hahaha, yes!

[@camodudemtbh7594]

Helicopter boys, awesome friends.

[@jonmarshall1502]

Amazing ride. What's more amazing is the abuse a modern mountain bike can handle without shitting itself, I can't believe your bike hasn't needed more repairs.👍🏻👍🏻

[@bkxc]

Hahaha I know!!

[@RidgeRiderMTB]

Bucket list stuff :) I might wanna do this next year!

[@bkxc]

I hope you do! It's a magical ride.

[@bradleytrew4832]

OMG that was one hell of a mountain GREAT VIDEO!!!!!! Brain 👍👍

[@bkxc]

Nice! Glad you enjoyed it

[@jcarls44]

a little deja vu going on...Nate Hills did this same ride about a month ago, haha. I was like, I recognize that cabin!

[@bkxc]

Haha yep!

[@stuartwoodburn2653]

wow what a rollercoster of a ride!

[@bkxc]

Yes! One of the best

[@19mozart67]

Wow what a ride Brian! I like you euro rides, but tell me...how do you top this one!? Heli shuttle!....7k of decent! ...on my bucket list....just an amazing ride!

[@bkxc]

Yeah it's gonna be hard to top it!!

[@damienm8416]

Wow , what an epic trail.

[@bkxc]

Big time!

[@siddhartaclark7040]

Wow! That was super cool....a bit scary tho coming down the top...

[@bkxc]

Definitely a wild ride!

[@OMGaBALLOON]

Welp, I'm jealous. Great vid! Looks like a ton of fun

[@bkxc]

It was a great one!

[@vihrenkostadino]

I am sure you had to change out break pads after this prolonged gnar-session!

[@bkxc]

Haha, I haven't yet, but I should!

[@bikerdhill]

Amazing video Brian, I strongly recommend you check out the hero trail in Yukon Canada. Boreale mountainbiking puts on the adventure. I think it is a must do for your biking list

[@bkxc]

I reached out to them and never heard back! I'd love to do that trip.

[@waunch76]

You need to make a trip back and bring Seth and Alex with ya!! That would be an awesome video ;)

[@bkxc]

Definitely!!

[@karlfonner7589]

That looks like serious fun!

[@bkxc]

It was!!

[@mtlxc5586]

What can I say wow best one yet . liking the Canadian durt eh!?

[@bkxc]

Oh yeah bud, she goes.

[@dylancooper4088]

love the video! if you’re ever in Utah check out the trails in Corner Canyon

[@bkxc]

Nice, I love the suggestions!

[@donchristie420]

As a trail builder/maintainer,after removing obstacles,the law is that you have to go back a ways and then hit like there was nothing there---it's the law--go back up there and do it again!!

[@bkxc]

Ah totally!! Now I know

[@peteb1983]

Yeh bro, congrats on getting the endo turns down!

[@bkxc]

Little by little!!

[@chaseames5762]

Im in Georgia ( we got hit hard too by Irma)and watching these videos deff helps with the cabin fever but damn do I have an itch to go ride!!!!!. Trails gonna be closed for a while longer I bet. Hoping to meet up with a trail maintenance crew later this month.

[@bkxc]

Awesome man, really glad to hear I can give you a little stoke while you guys recover!

[@TheJuanch04]

Wow! One of my favorites!

[@bkxc]

Nice! Love hearing that

[@Fexone718]

From the very beginning the trail doesn't look difficult. Very windy turns once you guys started but slowly loses steepness the further you get down. Would you say it's a intermediate trail for the whole ride ? Or at the top and beginning is alot steeper then what the videos shows and is really like a double diamond?

[@bkxc]

It's not a double black diamond, but definitely a black for the steepness and consequences if you make a little mistake.

[@garydecker3281]

You are living the life my friend!!!!!!

[@bkxc]

Thanks Gary!

[@jesustheoneandonly8518]

awesome video once again my friend keep riding.👍

[@bkxc]

Thanks Jesus!

[@nikot8613]

How would you compare the technical difficulty of this trail with the rides you did on the trans-alp in France?

[@bkxc]

The trip with Ben Jones was more technically challenging. This trip was probably more fun!

[@Flikkiiiii]

Holy shit Bro as a viewer this one is by far the best OMG at the top those switch backs one mistake n your down the mountain by the way he didn't give you much room to stop when u crashed into him, awesome Brian.

[@bkxc]

Awesome dude, glad you enjoyed it so much!!

[@VictorBeltran]

@bkxc Watching all your awesome adventures I can't help but wonder how much one of those trips cost? I know I could do the research but I think if you told us about the numbers of MTB traveling it would make for a great video. Thanks again for sharing.

[@bkxc]

Just added the link in the description, check it out!

[@VictorBeltran]

Cool thanks! But I was also thinking about you telling us about the "hidden" costs of these kind of trips, planning and that sort of thing. Anyway I thought it would make for an interesting video for your audience. Awesome stuff thank you again for inspiring us.

[@donchristie420]

I had friends that were heli-dropped on the wrong peak and had to wait for them to get picked back up,because there was no way down(bikes in a net hanging from copter)

[@bkxc]

Hahahaha WTF!

[@brycemyerss]

Thoughts on the 2018 Scott Genius? :) Think a 900 Tuned would suit the conditions you ride.

[@bkxc]

Haven't seen it yet! Would love to ride it!

[@chameleonpogono]

Bryce Myers Would love to try one, as well. I have a 2016 Genius and I like it. Little different frame setup on the new ones. New Genius kinda looks like a Spark.

[@ДаниилПаджериков]

Oh man, that was a fantastic place, its a very cool trail, I love such trails. That was a nature, peaceful place, birds, trees, berries.... Next time dont forget to call me ))) i want too, to ride ))) like

[@bkxc]

Thanks, it was an awesome day!

[@gecko7545]

Wow what an aweosme video, you got yourself a subscriber. GJ.

[@bkxc]

😁👍

[@freighttrainshane3953]

Freaking Awsome! That would be a dream trip for me. But for now my stoke trip is going to be with Seth's guided DuPont trip in October.

[@waltrobinson407]

Shane Albertson that's gonna be bad ass I was there last week.... Fall leaves will be in full effect when you get there

[@bkxc]

Nice!!

[@everestproductions12]

Shane Albertson I wanna go to that so bad! But I'm only 15 and can't get there :(

[@freighttrainshane3953]

Walt Robinson Yea can't wait.

[@scottyundiscovered]

That was insane!

[@stianjarnass]

Wow, what a nice mountain! 😁

[@bkxc]

Quite a nice one!

[@rowanashworth8032]

[@bkxc]
