Wowwwww it's so incredible to see how much ya'll have done out there. I CANNOT WAIT to come visit!!

[@bkxc]

Gotta get out here before the snow!!

[@eatnosenuggets]

A really loud rear hub should fix that headset creak.👍

[@bkxc]

Hahahaha!

[@Friskee62]

Excellent, Brian. Kudos to your father for all his ideas and help. Looks like a great place to ride and just visit...a 'high on the list destination' for sure. GOOD LUCK...

[@bkxc]

Yeah, he is the mastermind!!

[@mahalomydude]

Wow man! Would love to come visit one day.

[@bkxc]

You've got an open invite, any time!

[@JB50713]

Wow that's fricking beautiful

[@DrumguyCiv]

Keep scheming and watch it grow. Trails are growing as well. Nice.

[@bkxc]

We're working hard!!

[@DrumguyCiv]

@@bkxc it shows👍🏻

[@benwithrow5044]

Where I come from, tiny houses are called trailers and covering up/taking off the wheels is called a blocking party 😃

[@bkxc]

Nice!

[@furion..]

May I suggest *_TALSTAR_* as a bug spray for the woodshed/Lean-to to keep the nasty spiders from making it home. Stuff works.

[@bkxc]

Very cool, I have not heard of that!

[@charlesholland6851]

Looks super sweet!

[@bkxc]

Thanks Charles!

[@beecherphilpot4034]

Lemon Habanero LMNT adds an unexpected level of difficulty to a ride lol.

[@bkxc]

Hahaha, I haven't tried any of the more "off the wall" flavors yet!!

[@tooclaws]

Awesome Job brothers. :)

[@bkxc]

Thanks dude!

[@smog24]

Very cool update, definitely a project that I dream of doing one day. I love how you guys literally have a 'trails first' mentality over luxory amenities.

[@bkxc]

Trails are a bit cheaper, haha!

[@Capital-ik7zc]

You have to go to nepal for ride

[@toddolson7273]

Love the tiny house!! I’m sure you already answered this - why don’t you wear gloves when riding?

[@bkxc]

It's just nice to ride without them from time to time!

[@scottsather602]

Just an fyi... don't use a garden hose to drink from. The chemicals used to make it and keep it flexible are nasty.

[@bkxc]

Most definitely, the hose is a very temp situation and we'll get some proper buried water lines going soon.

[@Cheatingforfun]

Nice great job, maybe we’ll be hoping around during our next road trip soon 🔜

[@bkxc]

Awesome! Would love to get you out there!

[@guyd4067]

One day marketeers will develop a name so impenetrable that no-one will know what it is; LMNT is well on the way. I think that BS marketing twaddle means lemon-mint tea.

[@CosmicNomad93]

what do this guy's parents do for a living? It seems like he has had a really easy life

King of England!!

[@michaelwynn7772]

Speaking for the VW community please under no circumstances have the Bug as a feature to ride over. Having spent decades fixing dents in roofs on Bug's because people think it's funny to walk / run over the top this would be a really bad idea to encourage people to ride over Bugs. Thank you.

[@bkxc]

Hahaha, we will reinforce it mightily!

[@6295607]

Haven't watches his videos for years.. youtube forgot to recommend him.. what happened to the gf?

[@Happy_Biker]

They are married.

[@JadenHercules]

"Dialed in" - sounds to me you're a fan of DR. DISRESPECT hahah, as am I! Awesome space, dude. Looks amazing, and so does the trail. I wish I had the courage to go down tracks with such speed without falling off my bike. lol

[@bkxc]

At the tippy top and we're only half way there!

[@CaliradoKid]

The 2x!!!@@bkxc

[@stevencole7331]

Dont forget about voltage drop . The farther a wire is run the more resistance electricity can run into dropping the amount of voltage . I think sonething after about a 100 ft you have to upsize your wire and 300 ft could be 3 times the size

[@bkxc]

For sure! One thing that might work in my favor is to have the solar panel run to the charge controller be the longest run. That way I can always add more panels to up my voltage. AND it won't harm anything if the voltage drops 10% or even more on that run, but if your voltage drops that much on an actual 240v service, the things you plug in and use might not work right. I've been looking at the different calculators and doing some studying!

[@MTBTexasBikeRider]

Congratulations 🎉 on all y’all’s hard work it looks awesome great job guys!!👏 👍😎🤘

[@bkxc]

Thanks dude!!

[@SnowIsMyTerrain]

That's an awesome cheaper combo for the solar. Those Giandel's oddly have some amazing idle power consumption figures and are probably by the far the closest option to Victron at a far cheaper price if that's something that matters.

[@bkxc]

Yeah, I'm glad it's working well so far!

[@grosmerou]

How long it will last, 20 years max. before it will be a crap ? certainly great for my retirement, behind the Ventoux

[@barker83]

I don't watch a lot of 20 minute videos... but I was glued to this one! I love visiting, riding and volunteering at Everstoke and this video captures so much of what makes your and Aaron's property so special and unique! There's nothing like it in California (and probably beyond!) And it just keeps getting better and better every week... and I was fine with everything as it was at least 10 weeks ago! Keep up the STRONG work!

[@bkxc]

Thanks so much and thanks for being such a big part of getting us moving forward!!

[@briangong007]

Great update video Brian! Amazing progress you guys have made since I was there just a few weeks ago! For everyone the tiny house is amazing! I was able to be the first one in it and beta test it. Even without electricity and air-conditioning at the time it was great! Like I expressed to you. It's a place you actually need to visit to see how special Everstoke is and all the area has to offer! See you for the Enduro weekend!

[@bkxc]

Thanks so much Brian! It's great to know that everyone who actually comes out and stays has a fantastic experience!

[@CaliradoKid]

It's a truly epic spot. Can't wait to get back out there this weekend.

[@bkxc]

Awesome!! Sad I'm going to miss it!

[@pahadiridermj1056]

Super❤ 🚴🚴👌love from India🇮🇳

[@Rickydbaby]

Awesome job you all are doing up there! I like the solar setup. Hope the shed and everything holds up over the winter I guess will be a good test coming up. Have fun on your trips.

[@bkxc]

Yep, I've gotta get a few more things dialed before big bad winter sets in!!

[@mtbingadventures1551]

This video turned out great. Thanks for another awesome shout . I love how much we've got done.

[@bkxc]

More and more every week!!

[@blgJohnn]

stoked

[@bkxc]

Me too!

[@nostr8ghtlinzs596]

"skeleton in driver seat" put a hippie smoking the 'special stuff' .. might be how it got there... ODSB :O . the number 1 way roofers fall, carrying shingles on a ladder. :( the weight over your shoulder, your reach back......

[@bkxc]

Man, glad we didn't do it!!

[@Gamer_631]

Wana try element

[@nickprecision]

Next astro photog moment point it towards the north star and get crazy circle star trails

[@bkxc]

Yes!!

[@bratanvova]

nice

[@smtkelly]

If the roof was so sunny why didnt you put the solar on it?

[@bkxc]

Maybe some day, but drilling into a roof that has no attic access is a tough one!

[@beyond-x]

Really coming along! Fantastic!

[@bkxc]

Little by little!! Hope you can make it out for a visit.

[@mtbtube1948]

Fantastic! Place is looking amazing!

[@Blueian742]

Question: What do you use to record your videos?

[@bkxc]

iPhone 12 Pro Max for this one! GoPro Hero 11 for the riding

[@PeterCPRail8748]

Everstoke has come such a long way in such a short time for virtually, mostly two friends working on it. It's definitely a place I would love to visit if I ever get down to North Cal.

[@bkxc]

I hope to see you there some day Peter!

[@brianagee4620]

Where can we find the address?

[@bkxc]

Just type Everstoke into google maps!

[@muzzmacc6411]

Hey, Brian. There’s plenty of time to plan a St. Patrick’s day extravaganza at Everstoke, 2024. Some kind of treasure trail, prizes, giveaway’s, loads of great food. Atb😊😊😊

[@bkxc]

That's a great idea!

[@andrewlyndon4467]

Who made the tiny house?

[@bkxc]

Uncharted Tiny Homes!

[@lukasl.7236]

Congratulations!

[@bkxc]

Thanks!

[@Happy_Biker]

Wow, those stars 🌌

Pretty amazing!

[@k9kayaks]

Been enjoying @MTBAdventures videos of all his trail building. It would be nice to even just 1/2 of your followers would give Aaron a follow. Love both of your channels 👍🚵🏻❤️

[@bkxc]

Most definitely!

[@Magoo71]

Wow Brian....that Tiny House is amazing! Power? Water? Everstoke is truly amazing already....great work to you and your crew!!

[@bkxc]

We're getting it all together!!

[@gr8scotrolls]

Brian how tall are you and how do you feel about going with the Medium Ripmo having ridden Large in the past? I"m looking at them and seem to be between sizes at 5'11". Thanks and keep up the awesome work!

[@bkxc]

Medium has been great for me. I'm 5'10". Go find a demo Ripmo, it's the only way you'll really know.

[@brucemannjr]

You know Brian I checked how long it will take for my brother and I drive out to Everstoke from Phoenix about 12 hours in his first car and then there is our classic 1979 Vw Bus but it will take a little bit longer 14 or hours gas tank is not big 14 or 15 gallon tank.

[@bkxc]

Hahaha, awesome!

[@JaredHoff]

Yes 👍

[@bkxc]

Hope to see you out here again soon!

[@bassman87]

ive been watching the price of romex as well and luckily i noticed a decent decrease last month. My indicator is looking at the price of 100ft of 12/2 whenever im at lowes and its gone from havering around $109 to now $80. so thats some good news.

[@bkxc]

Wow, that is a very good decrease!

[@Birdmusic77]

Very cool great video

[@bradfordpedersen9753]

Thanks a ton!

[@rickputnam8816]

So I suppose, what with bears around, you would frown on tent camping?

[@bkxc]

You are welcome to come and tent camp! Contact us from the site everstoke.bike

Oh $nap, I'll be Visiting FR FR❤️💎🤙🏽

[@bkxc]

Hope so!

Hey Brother, I live in San Francisco and I ride our inner City single track and I invite you to come and ride it with me I have carved out a challenging ride.

[@bkxc]

Very cool! You can always send me a message just Google "contact BKXC"

[@bassman87]

well sense i live in Martinez, its also 3 and a half hours from my house. Cause we live so close its always been interesting seeing when you ride local northern california trails, cause i know im not far away to ride those same places.

[@bkxc]

For sure!!

[@ofacefan]

awesome!!

😀

[@Liamscopis]

Nice

[@margehernandez9902]

Looks amazing! Is camping (rv) available?

[@bkxc]

Yup yup! We’ve got a couple nice spots. But if your rig is bigger than 22 ft it’s going to be tough.

[@justinosborn826]

First! Been waiting for your next Everstoke video.

[@bkxc]

Building right along!

[@roymerrill]

I am interested in the tiny house like yours. Could you send me a link to where I could purchase one?

[@bkxc]

This one is from Uncharted Tiny Homes!

[@cjansson]

Looks great! Can you put the solar panels on container or wood shed? Or is it not a good sun location ?

[@bkxc]

It IS a pretty good sun location, and I may end up putting some of the panels over there. But I'm not a big fan of putting holes in the roof just yet. I like the idea of doing the ground mounts cemented into concrete pillars and having it stand alone on that big ole hill.

[@BlueGoose2]

sweet, that place is really coming together... looks so chill

[@bkxc]

It's a great time!

[@joelhouwer1540]

Willing to share details on the tiny home?? Looks great!

[@bkxc]

It was from Uncharted Tiny Homes!

[@joysassoon9003]

Looks amazing! Can we park a sprinter there and ride?

[@bkxc]

Most definitely! Contact us from the site everstoke.bike

[@kevinwak]

Will you guys have rv camping available?

[@bkxc]

We have some spots you can park, but if it’s over 22 feet it’s going to be tough maneuvering. Much easier for vans and car campers.

[@gallorody]

Everstoke is coming together nicely

[@bkxc]

Big time!! Really happy with how it's going.

[@KestrelYI]

Really excited for you all to finally kick this thing off. Only a 17 hours drive to get to you ;)

He's there every weekend putting in the time! My strategy at the moment is to go out and make the best riding videos I can so I can pour that money back into Everstoke.

[@slimdog72]

Looking rad man, I would love to ride that flow trail. Canada is over rated, best to stay state side.

Hope you get to ride Everflow some day!

Brian, how about an area for campers? Maybe an outhouse with an outdoor shower?
