It’s really inspiring to see you shredding with your kids man! My son just turned 5, and I am doing my best to let him come into his own, but I am stoked to be able to share moments like this with him as his coordination increases and he learns more and more. Being a Father is a rad job and experience, every day I am in awe of this little human growing, learning and experiencing. I am building my first MTB at the moment and looking forward to hitting some trails, Ogden Bike Park is like 10 mins away from me. 🤘

[@PorterMTB]

That's great to hear, being a dad is the best. They grow so fast too, I'm always trying to make the most of every minute with the kids!! I've heard Ogden Bike Park is great, I'll have to go ride there someday!

[@AllanWhite]

What a wonderful bundle of memories your son will have. Thanks for the great tour of Oregon rides as well!

[@PorterMTB]

That was such a fun trip, glad you enjoyed it! Grateful for the time with my kids!

[@croc0814]

Milo has improved so much since he got his release! Great riding guys!

Dude.....it's awesome watching you guys ride together! Milo is absolutely killing it!! Thanks for the video!

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!! It's so fun riding with Milo, he's crushing it!

[@mattspen]

Favorite part @4:45 “I have the biggest smile on my face … watching you interpret and slay this trail” … I really hope my kid progress and get into MTB to share moments like that. This video was nostalgic seeing Some of the places of my youth.

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, glad you connected with it! just keep creating good fun experiences with your kid, hopefully they fall in love with the sport too!

[@SuperRiderTV]

Thanks for coming to visit the Shred Spot - always stoked to see you guys!!

That was awesome, can't wait to go back for more!!

[@mamzero9725]

very nice I wish I could go with u guys.but I love this father and son moment

[@PorterMTB]

We'd love to ride with you as well!

[@railsofwesternwashington6877]

The mountain you were looking at on the ridge is Mt.Adams and it is 12,280 ft and it is also an active volcano.

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, thank you!! Now I wanna go climb it!

[@jurockclimb]

Man, I started watching your channel for the biking but keep coming back for the “dad” content (and still biking of course) makes me stoked to keep riding with my son and daughter and excited to see how they progress. Love it, keep it up!

That's so cool to hear, riding with the kids is the best!

What a great video! Father & son shredding! Shout out for not editing the crash, shows we are all human after all.

[@PorterMTB]

Glad you enjoyed it!! Haha yeah that crash was a pretty close call really, glad I didn't tumble down the hill!

[@caseedwards3017]

Looked like a super fun trip! Trails looked dialed! Great video Porter

[@PorterMTB]

Thank you! We got lucky with perfect moisture amount in the dirt, it was a great trip!

[@Teracis]

Trials, trails, amazing riding and #dadgoals all in one, this is peak biking right here! Even had a cameo from @Super Rider in there. Looks like Milo had fun riding at the shred spot and then continued to hit every little feature he spotted whether it was on a trail or not! Stoked!!!

[@PorterMTB]

Yes!!! Such a fun trip, glad you enjoyed watching it! Milo is definitely psyched to get a bit more into trials, we'll have to go back for more with Super Rider!

[@jacobmatlock254]

Next time you guys come to Oregon you have to ride black rock located just outside of falls city Oregon ! You will not regret it, it’s my favorite mtb spot!

[@PorterMTB]

We really wanted to ride blackrock but it was shut down the weekend we were in Oregon for maintenance! Next time we'll hit it for sure.

[@geoffandtara]

Crazy watching you ride the areas i go to so often(post and sandy). Stoked to see you guys liked it.

[@PorterMTB]

That's awesome, you are lucky to ride there!

[@trevordoty5481]

I went there for spring break last year! I love post canyon and it was so cool to see you guys make a video there. I love your videos keep it up

[@mackrome6196]

its awesome to see how much better milo has gotten!!!!

[@PorterMTB]

Yeah he's shredding!!

[@ericmonty]

Parenting: done right! What’s great is that you don’t need to be an mtb pro, you just need to share your love of the sport with your kids. And if they’re not into it, find something they love to bond through. I have one son who is all about mtb. The other, not so much. But he loves backpacking so that’s our thing. Keep up the good work Eric!

[@PorterMTB]

Yeah that's exactly it, as long as my kids are into something, I'm there to support it!

[@willdotterer5371]

hey Eric you inspired me to start mountain biking and now it is my favorite thing to do thank you!

[@PorterMTB]

That is so cool to hear, I hope I see you on the trail someday!! I've been riding since I was a kid and it's still my favorite thing to do!

[@3BrothersExtreme]

I often grin ear to ear when following my boys on mtb or moto single track. Awesome to watch them progress and use their creativity! Strong work brother.

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! You know the feeling!

[@Mtbbrayden]

You have inspired Me so much to where me and my friends built real big trails and pump tracks all throughout our neighborhood I just learn my first tail, whip and help. My first diamondback you are really inspiring

[@PorterMTB]

That is amazing, so cool to hear! Keep it up, it only gets more fun the more you ride!

[@bradycrumbacker11]

This is so cool!

Thanks!!

[@bradsups]

I can't wait for my son to get old enough to ride with me. I truly admire your connections with your boys. You can tell you're a great father!

[@PorterMTB]

@@bradsups will do, just put out our Whistler video this morning!

[@charliebrookes86]

Love this. There is also a city bus that’ll pick you and your bike up from sandy and take you to government camp on hood. The single track all the way back. Nice $2 dollar shuttle

[@PorterMTB]

That sounds so cool, next time we’ll have to take the bus!

[@alex_mr.beard_young]

Great video. I'm from the PNW and just relocated to SLC. It's fun to see the trails (and crazy weather patterns) that I rode for years through your guys eye. Post and Sandy are 2 of the best places to ride and never disappoint.

[@PorterMTB]

That’s awesome, hopefully I see you on the trails around Utah! We had a blast in the NW, next video is from our trip to Bellingham!

Hey Eric, what an amazing opportunity for you to spend such quality time with your son. I don't get enough opportunities to spend time with my sons and watching you do this just inspires me to try find more time to do the same. Kudos to you as dad and thanx for sharing these awesome rides with us.

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! It's hard to make a living and do everything you have to as well as spend enough time with the kids, I feel that way too. All we can do is try our best to make it happen, they grow up fast!

I live in Oregon and I'm so glad you liked it! When you come back you should definitely check out some of the trails and resorts in Bend Oregon. Also Idaho is one of my favorite places to mountain bike! I think you should do a trip their too!

Totally agree, I really want to take the family to Bend, I love the riding there, and Idaho!

[@HeadwatersKayak]

Beautiful up there. I travel Oregon all summer for my kayak business, but rarely do I get to have my bike. I’m changing that after seeing this video.

[@PorterMTB]

The rivers there are incredible too, but you definitely need to ride some of these trails!!

[@KevinTomayko]

'Gotta ride wheelies on bridges when you can' Last time I was riding on a bridge I tried that, and messed up my foot when looping out and I bailed at a weird angle and had a hard impact - on a completely flat bridge and flat trail. One day I'll get wheelies. Great video and loved seeing you out there with your son.

[@PorterMTB]

Nooooo!! If it makes you feel any better, I hopped on a friend's bike the other day who is from Australia, they run their brakes moto style so front brake on the right hand, I popped a wheelie not knowing this and looped out straight to my tailbone in a crowded parking lot!!

Ah man Eric, you guys are inspiring. Milo is getting to be quite the ripper! I wish my son had the fire to start sending jumps like Milo (and yeah, like I did when I was younger) but I also recognize he has to live his own life and be his own person with his own passions (although he can definitely rip down hill when he wants to!). Eh, I can't complain though. He did in fact send a gigantic gap well before I did a few months ago so maybe it's a latent gene 😀

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks! Haha yeah you never know with the kids, I just try to create good times and support what they are into, that's awesome your son is hitting gaps now!

Great video! We live in the Portland area and have ridden all those places except Oakridge. We are also scheduled for a session with coach Robbie soon! We met him at some food trucks and he saw my son's Berm Peak shirt and handed us his card. We aren't nearly as good as you and Milo so it's awesome to see what those trails look like at speed and getting some air. Next time try to find a Ruby Jewel ice cream sandwich. Those are awesome. And for more trails to explore check out the channel Voiceover Trail Reviews in KZbin. It's a fairly entertaining narration of common and uncommon trails in the Portland area.

[@PorterMTB]

Thanks!! So many great places to ride, we need so much more time in Oregon! If you go to Oakridge, try to get a shuttle from Trans Cascadia or someone, the rides there are big and the climbs would be really long, it's amazing though!! We'll definitely look out for Ruby Jewel next time too!

The few times we have though are some of my most valuable memories. Great video!!

Milo is 12, it's been really fun getting out riding with him. Glad you've been able to experience that as well, you never know what path kids will take and anything I get to do with the kids is special, they grow up too fast!!

[@verzadus5716]

It's so weird seeing you ride trails in my area. Post Canyon is a sick place especially for shuttling. I've done it plenty of times. Also, that mountain at 4:12 is probably Adams. It's 12,278 ft. You can climb it and snowboard down from the summit. I've summited but have yet to snowboard there. The PNW is awesome.
