[@brianshields3540]

[@promodsteve7882]

Prayers sent.

[@Jon1Surf1Lim]

Stay strong dude, Riding a mountain bike will stay with you forever, it's the best way to take time out from life. 👍🏻

[@rsjm5632]

Dude, thought are with you. I lost my wife to cancer 5 years ago (Claire was just 37) and having always been a biker it was my go to thing and has helped me through the grief. Keep on going bud.

[@bangaloretrailrider2472]

I think I never know your grief, but hey nothing like a sent into the woods to clear those blues

[@NotTheLarryDavid]

Damn, that’s tough to read. Can’t imagine what you went through but I’m glad to know you’re there and thankful. Stay strong and keep shredding! Sending good vibes your way!

[@MrScrofulous]

I love watching Martin scare the shit out of otherwise fearless people.

[@daviddepue6499]

Martyn is so damn inspiring. Someone who went through one of the worse possible tragedies that could happen to an athlete and still lives life to the fullest. Not very many people could stay that strong and positive and continue on in life full of happiness and joy. Love that guy.

[@jacobfarrugia9866]

man I love Brett tippie, idk how he's go so much energy and one of the first freeriders

[@jacobfarrugia9866]

@K O haha just a bit

[@the_kaizeroel6209]

It would be so Awesome to see Sam Pilgrim on the Random Tandem

[@th_js]

Yes

[@sapinva]

That would be epic. "Let's just flip it, cause it's easier" lol.

[@benshannon3121]

Omg. Get Sam on and crack a monny

[@benshannon3121]

Sam pilgrim: omg that's so sketch *does crazy descent with Martyn* omg, that was THE BEST

[@danervin2530]

THE DREAM

[@andyscheurweg5315]

The tandem is perfect platform for interviews! I like it

[@DravonGanksYou]

"Thank god you were a world champion because my life is in your hands" lol

[@Travelakad]

Random Tandem is always a treat to watch. You get entertainment and life lessons. Smiled the whole video. Brett's laugh is freakin' contagious! Hahaha!

[@l33t1ee7]

I love these so much. As someone who watches not because I mtb, but because of the content and humor, this is A++ love it!

[@pedalhound]

Thank you Brett for sharing your story with us. I have so much respect and love for you and what you've done with your life and for our sport!

[@MrFester63]

Perhaps the best MTB video ever; Tippie & Martyn, life lessons from the Random Tandem! Surrounded by solid friends, laughing & having fun. PLUS a wigged skeleton!!! It just doesn't get better!

[@CriticalDroog]

Brett, congrats on your sobriety, I know its not easy. Just keep doing the next right thing and take it one day at a time. One love!

[@DGYSAM]

Im lucky enough to consider Tippie a good friend and as much as i love the laughs and jokes the chats just between 2 mates are what makes him loved. Cant wait to catch up with him again soon.

[@rupedog]

Yesterday is history Tomorrow is a mystery Today is a gift...thats why its called the present. BRILLIANT👏👏👏

[@jpnelson7606]

Just when I think that the world is falling apart and totally sucks... I see this, two unreal people who have done such amazing comebacks. Stories like these give me hope, make me laugh, and help me to remember that if I want there to be good out there, I need to make it happen. Thanks for this. My dad: "People won't judge you based on what happens to you- they'll judge you based on how you react to it."

[@grcgrcgrcgrc4]

That was priceless. Seeing Tippie out there on that rig was worth every moment

[@yegmtb8377]

As a native guy from Alberta ive seen this guy brett on few videos out there an hearing his story its inspiring and knowing he has chosen the same lifestyle i have instead of drinking sorrows away. This makes me soo happy thanks once again Gmbn for another smashing video unreal😊😊

[@williamstryker6643]

Tippie and Martin have inspiring stories to tell. In my opinion, overcoming the lows and hard things in life is so much more inspiring than those who can only brag about their life decisions.

[@elitedavidhorne8494]

Man this random tandem series is epic. Get to see Martyn back on the bike. Plus a great interview.

[@gregspeakie4635]

Considering this is essentially a podcast whilst riding a bike down the side of a mountain, this is incredibly well produced! Love this series, Martyn is such a natural host. Looking forward to more

[@chrisbucci]

What a rad couple of dudes

[@Tajarski]

Brett, full of energy, positive thinking, smile :) Stay sober, this is best state of mind of all :)

[@MySkobi]

I was watching all the old Brett Tippie videos. The guy is a legend and a real hero for what hes been through. He fought his addiction hard and destroyed it! He is one of my favourites, because of his energy and humour. This was a really great episode. Keep'em coming Martyn

[@yolosubmarine]

This series is just epic. Love you Martyn, love the show. Jesus, being in recovery and just buying my first full suss bike I was close to tears hearing from Brett.

[@mikecastle1267]

Well done! 👊

[@tychoMX]

The Random Tandem series is one of the most uplifting things I've seen. This is awesome. Now I need a skeleton companion for my 'cross season..

[@jrbechthold]

Straight up - Random Tandem is the best thing on KZbin!

[@johnnydoe66]

Awesome to see Bret Tippie, I still have some old VHS tapes of the FroRiders.....I always wondered what happened to those pioneers of Free Riding. Glad to see that he's back on the bike and enjoying life.

[@calvinpenner5130]

Omg !! You guys are both inspiring!! I started mountain biking after sobering up in my 40s .. keep up the awesome work guys ! That video tells me again to never give up on ones self ! You guys absolutely are amazing.. positivity is awesome and contagious! Thx again ! 15 years sober for me . 🤘🤙

[@AndyHasBeenTaken]

Random Tandem is becoming my favorite thing so quickly!! Martyn seems like a true gent!!

[@bigal1968ful]

I have never heard of Brett before but that won’t be the last I hear of him. That was another inspirational and emotional video. Keep these coming Martin you yourself are an inspiration. One man I would love to meet.

[@Willjcbaker]

These videos are without a doubt the best of any on the X Network channels. The depth of the conversation with the light hearted positivity. Absolutely excellent.

[@gmbn]

Thanks Will! 🤟

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Brett Tippie - screaming like a little girl, cracking jokes, giving a great interview- is there any wonder this guy is a 'living legend'!!! 😜 Loving the 'Random Tandem', looking forward to many more, really enjoying being a part of this Martyn!!!

[@funkyduck4743]

Coolest MTB series out there! Brett is SO genuine, I really love how the guests are legit SCARED behind Martyn! Sick vid!

[@joachimgrammig9590]

Simply wonderful. Love Brett talk about very serious stuff. This is for the women out there: The random tandem is a means to make men talk.

[@philcooper9623]

What...Brett Tippie....!!! Superb film guy's.....two inspirational people, giving inspirational vibes......Awesome....!!!

[@BruceBusby]

I really love the random tandem with Martyn and his rock star friends!

[@01FozzyS]

What a guy and what a way to turn around his life!

[@Dd_chill]

My favourite section of Gmbn by far! Great show, one of the best sports show if not the best one. The presenters are awesome, but all the other people involved are top professionals as well. I'd like to give a huge shout out to all of them. ( Sorry if there's any mistake, my English is limited)

[@gmbn]

Thanks Daniel! 🙌

[@ApexHerbivore]

That's quite possibly one of the coolest things I've ever seen

[@wilyamiyooo]

Oh my goodness what a great video. Tippie's stories and his jokes are top notch! Just wanted to say I'm proud of him! "If the world was fair, Elvis would still be alive and all his impersonators are dead" got me. 😂

[@edwardwegelius6098]

Love it ! Therapy on a Tandem- both so open is refreshing!

[@bikerdhill]

love this episode, Brett is such a ray of sunshine, and inspiration. I followed him and others ever since Kranked 1 came out back in the day

[@jmd8270]

tippie's laughter is contagious

[@andrewhutchinson1400]

Hadn't heard of Brett before, he's an absolute legend. So inspiring hearing both your stories, and relating to each other.

[@marekschrock798]

Loved seeing brett tippie on the random tandem, such a cool dude and full of positive energy

[@oldshreddies2080]

Really awesome candid talk between the two of you. This series is just so good. Heal up Martyn!

[@quinnmiller-smith4155]

You guys have more confidence on a bike than I do on my own 2 feet. Luv yall

[@henkelsfridgedoor]

*Happens to wake up at 5am for no reason* "Ooh gmbn posted!" 10/10 did not realize that was a skeleton on his back 😂💀

[@huggybear8293]

Good to see somebody come out the other side and sort their life out. Good luck in everything you do in the future.

[@killer2309ify]

I just cant get enough of this feature, hilarious inspiring and generally awsome! It always puts a big smile on my face and makes my day better great work people.

[@OldFatSlow72]

Two very impressive people on the same bike. Very inspiring

[@benjaminrogers9848]

Of all the creative content to come out of Mountain biking media, this is definitely one of the best ideas I've seen! Awesome work, Martyn!

[@greengonzonz]

Wow Martyn, you know some rad blokes. This man is pure gold. Love seeing you out on the trails 💙

[@antonioCsilveira]

Man, this was an awesome video . The right amount of laughs and serious topics. Love the honesty and clarity from Tippie. Great job GMBN.

[@kootenayadaptive9572]

Absolute legend of a person. Was so great to meet you at the Adaptive Jam at Crankworx and Brett the next week when he rolled into our work!

[@mtb_rene317]

These Random TanTem episodes are some the best videos from GMBN yet!! Keep up the great work!

[@bulletheed1970]

Two amazing blokes from my past . Cheers for posting this guys much love and respect.

[@captainslowmtb7409]

I love the Random Tandem videos, never stop making them!

[@Alanvictoryoung]

Thank you gentlemen! Both of you are inspiring and have much to offer!

[@briangarner]

Best GMBN ever, inspiring

[@fishlexic]

Tippy..... amazingly honest. Would take a lot to look at your flaws like that and call yourself out on it. Takes a lot of courage and probably gets just as much respect for that from me (probably others as well) than his amazing influence on the MTB scene over the years. Great to see Tippy and Martin sending it still. One of your best videos guys. Hits you in the feels.

[@lukenukem1164]

Amazing!! Love Tippie.🤘

[@JonathanWhoever]

Thanks Brett. Man you gave me goose bumps.

[@MrManderson75]

Random Tandem has easily become my favorite videos on KZbin! I'd kill to go for a ride with Martyn on the Tandem!

[@mikieson]

Good ride guys..and CONGRATS to Brett for being clean and sober. nobody is perfect and we all struggle with things. So glad you found life again before it was too late.

[@kenfoley509]

Very happy you two are still here!

[@BornAragorn]

That was Awesome! Shout out to Brett Tippie!!!!

[@evanellis1477]

Kudos to you martyn my aunt wast paralyzed about a year ago and now I gotta try to get her into a sport. Im glad you are back martyn

[@dryzalmynelli9600]

Bigass smile watching this whole episode. Tippy has some fun!

[@vonweizhacker]

The camera hand switch at 3:15 is amazing!

[@bangaloretrailrider2472]

Two awesome guys on a tandem mtb.. whoo, I love this sport!

[@realMors]

Awesome video 👍 2:30 "My life is in your hand..." 😂. The way he giggles makes me giggling even more. Oh man, absolutely loooove these kind of videos!!! Happy riding everybody. Love and ✌ to all of you. Specially you, Martyn Ashton🙏. And for that "happy" gentleman Brett Tippie,... Like his attitude👌.

[@go5alive]

What a pair of legends 👊

[@endurotruckererniedesjardins]

Since the first NORTHSHORE EXTREME video free ride is my thing, doesn't matter if it's a mountain bike or a enduro mx bike I'm FREE when I'm RIDING. Watching BRETT TIPPIE , and the rest of the cast of the NORTHSHORE EXTREME videos were awesome MOTIVATION. To hear the tippie laugh today totally made my day. Thankyou ✊😉👍

[@fated6635]

BEST SERIES IN THE WORLD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@ricky7396]

This was sooooo good guys. Broke my elbow detaching triceps, two fractured ribs and leg haematoma three months ago on a failed MTB jump. Been back on my cross bike for two months. This makes me wanna try hitting trails on my MTB again. Great stuff guys

[@acfella100]

Brett Trippe being scared...priceless. Such good content. Keep up the good work. Yes please get Sam Pilgrim, Jeff Lenosky or Hans Rey. Epic

[@sebh670]

Love the format ... so much positivity and all that while shredding it !

[@anthonygarvey1]

I love where this series is going. I can't wait for the next episode. 21 minutes just flew by. Great work.

[@bassman87]

Just three legends of the sport on one bike, having a rad time. That third legend seemed a bit scared, really rocked him to the bone.

[@beardedvikingmtber]

[@KDog2264]

Another great Random Tandem, thanks. I really enjoyed it , I can honestly say the Random Tandem is one my favourite things on the show. Someone I think you should get on the Tandem is Sam Pilgrim I think he would be hilarious on it. Again great job and thank you.

[@ZeroSeriesMMX]

Dad jokes, riding skeletons, freeride life, and loads of heart. Excellent.

[@thatsalovelyguitar]

[@leerubenstein2446]

This vid put a huge smile on my face! So inspiring!

[@cormajor8833]

2 absolute legends, Tippie is a one man party on feet...just a great spirit and personality. And of course Martyn, one of the most lunatic dangerous bike riders ever, I still dont get how you did the road bike series and not die.

[@colinthompson5881]

What a great guy, this series is just amazing
