Seeing Alex on a video is like seeing an old best friend. It's feels so natural and like he never left KZbin.

[@JaredHoff]

Totally agree 👍🏻

[@whitebreadkneegroo]

Did he really leave?

[@lagwall]

Alex runs a Patron only channel I believe. Otherwise there is another paid for platform that you can watch him on.

[@ikergaramendisorbet1670]

Nice to see Alex.

[@cbogue3898]

Haha. Google definitely has Little Creek all wrong! Loved this ride... I got lucky and linked up with some locals, one gentleman was in his 70’s with stage IV cancer on a pedal assist! Dude was my hero... still hitting all the drops and styling his air! My guides also showed me some cool hidden petroglyphs.

If you got stuck out there you could have called Matt's off road recovery and ended up in one of their videos. That would have been an unusual collab.

That would've been sweet to watch 🤙

[@jimjohanson8152]

I was thinking that the whole time

[@gavinsmith5368]

you should ride Paradise Rim and turtle wall

[@justinellis2936]

The longest downhill in Utah is the Wasatch crest at around 33.3 miles of downhill the whole enchilada isn't even that whole distance of downhill but when you start at 9000 feet you climb a hill called puke Hill to about 11,000 feet you can drop all the way back down to the airport in Salt Lake

[@MarkJolley]

Dude, you need to stop riding to the edge of cliffs. I don't like it.

[@ShitStefanShoots]

I might sound stupid, but I got trouble with heigth and I feel my skin crawl (really!) when I see the bikes go close to cliffs. It's just not for me and I feel anxious when seeing it

Yeah, I couldn’t watch that. I wouldn’t walk that close to the edge, let alone bloody ride...

I’m a huge fan of beer at the end of an epic ride. You do epic rides always. Is it to stay super fit for all that climbing you power through perhaps?

What you’re riding over is an prehistoric ocean floor with the silt all settled in the basins. Ya know... where you took a couple wrong turns. 100 million years earlier, Google would have had to provide under water directions. Up to 2,500 feet deep.

[@abstraddic0442]

Y'all, huh? Lmao 😂😂😂

[@evinsteven13]

"This CANNOT be safe" You are correct. Just last year a guy fell 200 feet from Gooseberry Mesa and died. He was riding by himself when it happened. Some other riders came upon his bike up top, and as they looked around, they noticed he had tumbled off the edge and passed away. BE CAREFUL PEOPLE!! If it seems unsafe to ride a line or section, walk it. It's not worth dying over.

[@darren_springer]

I found some pottery chards underneath a ledge out there on Little Creek. Very cool terrain. You guys should go down and check out Big Bend Ranch State Park for some remote riding and camping too, I've got videos on that as I've been traveling and riding full time for the last 5 months. Oh Yeah, I keep an extra AXS battery in my pack. Never needed it though...green means go and yellow still has at least a ride left on it. Love the AXS!

[@johnglynn7795]

BKXC, great ride! So I know Alex w/SS, however what is your first name? Also, what type of bike and travel was Pierce riding. Always enjoy your video's. Keep the rubber facing down! jg

[@MusicManMTB]

Google has got to get that route fixed! We had the same problem taking that first route where you end up on that random tiny pavement path (old golf cart path) and up a gnarly switchback thing. We turned around and went back out to the highway and turned right (south) just before the gooseberry road. That's the correct route. I can't believe Google tries to route you up that dang golf course thing. Super annoying. Man, Pierce is a beast! Some crazy tech lines in there. Fun video!

[@FoCoFlowShow]

Still need to get you back on some VA rocks ... let me know when you’re back out this way!

You guys should totally get the nuggy stuck and then call out Matts recovery and towing (the yellow jeep guy). He has a KZbin channel. Make a intertaining short collaboration of him getting you unstuck and then you guys can pay each other in the form of sharing subscribers. Ha

Great vid! Curious to hear from you and Alex as guys that travel to bike constantly. How did you get along with the much disputed and bemoaned roll out of the trailforks business update that came a handful of months ago? I am of the opinion that they botched it and could have done a myriad of other things to produce more income for the app without making life painful for those who don't want to pay but I'm curious to hear your opinion. Please share.

if this, is in time I think my favorite Utah a ride is starting at the top of guardsman and coming down the Wasatch Crest past Devastation Lake into the Millcreek side not the park city Side. I can start at the top of guardsman hit the Wasatch Crest Trail drop down the hall Millcreek side into Millcreek Canyon then hit pipeline Trail into rattlesnake Gulch Trail back into the canyon Danny and to Parleys Trail which leads Millcreek side into Millcreek Canyon then hit pipeline Trail into rattlesnake Gulch Trail back into the canyon then jumps over to the Parleys Trail into the Sugar House Trail into the S Line Trax Trail ending at 500 East can I just head over to my house at 1700 South
