Can we acknowledge how talented and amazing Seth is. A awesome guy born in Long Island, completely devoid of mountain bike trails. Then Florida, and then to Asheville where his channel became huge! Now to berm peak, where there’s never a dull moment. I want to acknowledge all the subscribers that are currently watching and Seth, one of the coolest guys out there who developed an awesome channel that we all dream about. Seth, you are amazing and we all love you and would do anything for you! P.S, thanks for signing my hat at the Sedona mountain bike festival! Stay safe at home, and keep doing the impossible!

I want to know how he is handling the liability of having his YT fellows in there. He is opening himself up to some serious liability if anyone gets hurt, especially using regular wood.

@@tarstarkusz None of them are going to take him to court if they get hurt there. First of all, their reasonable people, so they know it's their own faullt if they ride it and get hurt.

People would be outraged. No one will take him to court, that's just stupid.

If you lay a chain in the bed of utv, put the length of the bed plus another 10' or so by the cab, then lay a tarp over chain and the bed. Load your gravel/dirt. When you go to unload, take the excess chain stacked by cab, tie it to a tree, then drive forward. There's several way to do it, with different materials. We use to use 2 chains on each side of an big trailer. Its an easy way to unload.
