First Ride, Mountain Biking Dakota Ridge, Chunky and Gnarly, Morrison Colorado

[@knordberg]

I watch this video quite often. I rode this for the last time in 2020 because I am 67 and have visual problems. Ended up walking much of it. It is so much chunkier now. You filmed this 5 years ago. I'd like to see another vid of this technical ride. I can't ride it anymore but enjoy watching your trip on it. Brings back great memories. Oh yeah, and I did make that ugly switchback without doing an endo turn - only once.

Every time its rains or snows, the Morrison formation looses some dirt. In GJ, a huge chuck of our trails ride the same formation as on Dakota Ridge. It's one of my favorite DEN rides so I will look forward to revisiting!

[@thim8009]

Good job man looks pretty cool , gotta love chunk.

[@OutdoorGold]

This was a weird one! I can't wait to ride it again to see if I can make my way past some of those flat and climbing spots! Thanks Thim!

[@kjj9701]

Nice riding out there!!! I’m not confident enough to hit those drops like you. Nice to see that they are “doable” once I get the nerve to try some.

[@OutdoorGold]

Thanks Kris! I was rolling the dice that day, but dang that was a sweet trail! I can't wait to ride that one again and see if I do any better lol. There were some weird moves on that thing so I don't blame ya!

[@RideLabs]

This is so good! I had no idea that Morrison had all that stuff. I've gotta get back there. Great riding and vlog!

[@OutdoorGold]

I think this is Denver's gnarliest trail outside of Buffalo Creek! Really difficult! Thanks Eric! I think you need to put out a insta360 editing video because I've been driving the struggle bus on it!

[@RideLabs]

Hmm... Ok, well, I bet that you've already figured out what I have. But maybe I can for Thursday or Saturday.

[@christianlopez6560]

Great video!!!

[@OutdoorGold]

Thanks a bunch christian! I greatly appreciate the support!

[@allenkvextreme]

[@OutdoorGold]

Hey! Thanks a bunch Urban Dropper, I had to mix it up just a little and I'm glad you liked it!

[@toddburdette]

Awesome as always..

[@OutdoorGold]

Greatly appreciated Todd! Hopefully next time I ride Dakota, its faster and more awesome!

[@SenderoSeeker]

"I know I'm not going very fast"... Only other Gimbal users know of the 'Gnar flattening effect' :) Good stuff man!

[@OutdoorGold]

Thats a true statement! I subbed the Sendero Seeker!

[@SenderoSeeker]

Haha, Awesome. Thanks!

[@knordberg]

4:33 - I've seen guys ride up that. It's an amazing thing to see. I've never come close myself. At 12:49 there is an alternate line to the right that rolls you down a super steep rock face that puts you right into that rock berm.

[@OutdoorGold]

Gotta ride this again! This trail isn’t for the faint of heart! Thank kris!

[@knordberg]

@@OutdoorGold They have now finished an additional loop that is MTB only and directional. I haven't ridden it but it looks fantastic. Here's a video the trail builders put up. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fXuxmqx5mchljMk

[@kevintwin7777]

Awesome ride man

[@OutdoorGold]

Great trail! I can't wait to try my hand again at that one, that's for sure! Thanks Kevin Twin!

[@lauralong3091]

[@OutdoorGold]

hahaha that's a common occurrence for me lol! Thanks for tuning in!

[@TrailBikeBebop]

Talk about threading the needle. tough one. nice!!

[@OutdoorGold]

Seriously bro! It kinda kicked my @$$! lol

[@TrailBikeBebop]

😆🤘

[@jacobstorey4140]

Wow, solid ride.

[@rterry2752]

You missed the south end, scary shit !

[@FourClover713]

I bought my first hard tail didnt do enough research on trail difficulties and chose this trail since it was 7min away from my house I brought one water and did the whole loop it was something that was 95% pain 5% fun never rode it again

[@mtbingadventures1551]

I almost never finish my sentences either. LOL. Easy to lose train of thought on the gnar

[@OutdoorGold]

Thats why I use alot of voiceover lol. Its really hard to talk and focus on breathing and the trail. I dont know how BKXC does it so well!

[@BrianVaughn]

It's your editor's job to make you look good. That is a chunky ride, I'd expect there were some mistakes.

[@OutdoorGold]

hahaha unfortunately I didn't have anybody riding behind me to make me look bad for their camera! lol

[@JRHockney]

Wow that looks like a choppy mess of a trail and a mostly miserable ride...meh, I'll probably still try it out :p
