Can Any Idiot Ride Trials? | Feat. GCN Roadie Hank

[@gmbn]

What would you like to see Hank learn next in his trials or mountain bike career? Let us know 👇

[@josdaboss]

I’d love to see Hank learn to jump! Has he done that yet?!

[@WaechterDerNacht]

Get Hank on an MTB-Epic through the peak district or the highlands... Also, would be fun to see those two enter a trials comp.

[@mangezable]

Wheelie. Manual.

[@OrgunDonor]

Get Hank and Blake to learn back hoppping. Or potentially Side Hops, and a competition between them to see who can get the highest.

[@rider65]

Not a trials skill 🙄@@mangezable

[@Sai-tb1xt]

big up to martyn , i know it has been a while and such, but not beeing able to do what you love while seeing others having the joy of learnig it would crush me the bit where he rode against the stone was meant to be comedic but the facial expression and the implication broke my heart MAD RESPECT for the legend that he still is even though the younguns don't really know anymore how big his influence in this space was PS> i LOVE hank in the gmbn videos!

[@davidf2281]

Yeah, Martyn has amazing strength of character. An inspiration.

[@BigSmartQuiz]

Going to see the great man on his 'Bike Party', which starts on the 3rd Oct in Bristol, I can't ruddy wait, what a lovely, lovely chap, and as you said, a true inspiration.

[@saddleweary2777]

You commented exactly what I was feeling about the stone, I noticed his expression and was thinking about commenting the same thing but you did a better job than I could have done. 👍👍

[@Schradermusic]

I think at this point, he's more like the proud grandpa.

[@ashpunting]

Hank and blake what a team I'm sure they are brothers with big bro Martyn keeping them in check brilliant 👏🏽 👍🏼

[@tri-seeker2753]

Yeah, unless you memorize colors of each bike... Especially when they were negotiating over the logs - have you notice how similar they are even in the face??

[@ashpunting]

@tri-seeker2753 similar height same shape faces and sence of humour 😁

[@ride6884]

Best explanation, talk about dead on. They are a riot!

[@boblazar1976]

THIS IS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT, BACK TO GOOD OLD WHOLESOME TECHNICAL TIPS. 👍BIG UP GMBN !!!

[@leithahyde8072]

Love seeing Blake and Hank together, but what I really loved seeing was Martyn and his handcycle. I'd love to see videos of him putting the trike through its paces.

[@neilsmyth1812]

what a chemistry. . Hank is becoming the Multi Tool of the cycling world. . love it.

[@CoachLo3]

Please get Hank on this channel more often! Love him on GCN! Same with Blake! Get him on GCN more!

[@torchmark66]

To be frank, Hank isn't just any idiot. He's a special type. 😜 May as well include Blake in there too. Loving the team-up and Martyn as sensei.

[@juluisreyes9094]

Because he already have vast experience in bicycle but as a roadbiker

[@andyman127]

God Hank is the best GCN presenter... Fucking love the guy!

[@MrErtugerdem]

Hank in GCN videos is fun. Hank in GMBN videos is fun. What talented man. And Blake is same.

[@micheandmikey]

These guy's are so much fun! Can't wait to see Blake on the trails again here in the PNW! Martyn, you as well Whistler 2024!

[@dazmtb]

I love it when there’s videos like this 😂🙌🏼

[@Andybarney555]

Shrinky winkey!!. 😂 blake!!. I was sippin a drink as you dropped that. I nearly died... utter legend...😂

[@josephneo1969]

You have a real positive attitude, Hank! You’re an inspiration!

[@serpentarus]

This bromance puts a smile on my face anytime you guys do something together! Keep it up

[@Milessongs]

😂Love the applause track at the end! Way to keep at it, Hank!!

[@app6336]

Hank is undestructable! Good job guys! Great content. I watched Martyn ever since his first road bike party, always admired him. And Hank & Blake is my favourite ever GCMBN duetto!

[@junka1975]

Hank did great. He and Blake with Martyn just make it fun to watch. 😎👍 Let's see all 3 of them pull out the stoppies in the next one because even Martyn can get in on the action with that one.

[@Cheapsh0t247]

the second log exercise is really good for progression as it gets people to forget about the first element of getting onto the log as they are now focused on the new goal

[@kzetting]

Martyn, you are amazing! Aways great flicks! Thank you.

[@billderas3420]

Great fun for us viewers! Cheers!

[@aliancemd]

Hank takes on anything, love that

[@daskleineM]

Love to see Martyn teaching the younglings how its done

[@lyubravia]

I like Hank and the challenges he put himself into, he isn't an idiot.

[@alstuart8801]

Hank & Blake ..what a great team!

[@mattpettitt562]

“What’s the worst that can happen” *Me who broke my collarbone yesterday casing a jump*

[@kevincross9206]

Have to love Hank for his gamesmanship 👏🏼

[@wilyamiyooo]

Blake and Hank in a video is awesome already, having Martyn takes the cake. Great video!😊

[@trooperV]

Nice tandem Hank and Blake no dull moments.

[@aspoonfulofslurry]

Blake is beyond skilled but Hank is great for being so new.

[@horusgarcia1]

Everything looks doable except the 2 wheel drop at the end of the log. I was impressed.

[@WolfAs243]

Great video as usual ! It's always a pleasure watching all the positive energy you share in your videos. Hank and Martin, we love you guys ! A fan from DRC.

[@TheBrokenMountainBiker]

Hank the Tank being a legend like always!!

[@Celeon999A]

There is no denying it any longer. First he lost the lycra but stuck to the roadie helmet , then he lost the roadie helmet aswell , then he rode the Mega Avalanche . Now he is doing trials....Next step is checking his legs for any hair. If he really has stopped shaving them, he has officially finished his long journey to the light side of cycling force. Meet GMBNs new presenter !

[@mathewemden2068]

I love the bromance between Hank and Blake. We've all had those... (sigh)

[@dandrain.]

This is gold!

[@Icehso140]

8:24.. not only is the log a challenge but apparently he has trouble counting to 3. LOL "How many...?"

[@Greenfuego]

It’s good seeing Martin in his natural element out on the trail

[@deividas_kimontas]

Hank is actually good! 🤘

[@dpomberger]

Love you guys!!!!

[@ltrtg13]

How about a follow you to Rich's video with Manon and Conor. See who can learn trials quicker someone with a low centre of gravity (Manon). Or high centre of gravity (Conor). I also like when Hank said riding over the rock would mean further to fall. Martyn said "what could happen?"

[@NathanEide]

Martyn, Blake, and Hank in a video? Watch, Like, Comment guaranteed. More from these 3 please!!!!

[@rider65]

Trials basics are the FOUNDATION of actual mtb riding. The BEST enduro/hard enduro riders come from Trials. Having the basics of trials skills allows for better bike control on trails. Better adaptation and the understanding of body-bike separation.

[@daforefather]

My guys are out to play!!

[@YoYosAmusement]

Hank is truly a talented rider on and off the road

[@haemmertime]

Martin really nailed the trackstand

[@captjerski4165]

Coached by the best, Martyn could smell a potential trialish rider.

[@s2theb258]

don't hurt yourself I love you, made me laugh :) with love of course!

[@hugomundo4826]

11:07 It's called the BB slide, Blake.

[@ivanth]

not me Martin! I'll love a coach like you man!!!!

[@jansprij2858]

Hank and Blake an unique team, I feel a nwe channel coming

[@subohmcircus]

11:10 Cross lock grind.

[@dutchrookie7556]

If its not GCN tryna kill Hank its GMBN 😂. Gotta love hank! Blake & Hank are so wholesome together.

[@ls66]

Let’s hear it for Hank he was a great sport.

[@mrvwbug4423]

Haha, Hank is far from a beginner, we've all seen him ride in the Andes, he absolutely knows his way around a MTB.

[@eddierivera7803]

Nice going Hank!

[@MTBr-of-SoCal]

Dang it! Even a roadie could do that!?! Ugh, gotta get back to me practicing.

[@ssenssel]

Hank the thank! Hank the tank!

[@_Inferis]

Get Hank to do an XC or enduro race.

[@peegion_cycling_dynamics]

Hanks just becoming a mountain biker at this point :)

[@juluisreyes9094]

Hank is blake's long lost half twin..hehe

[@briw4647]

Of course an idiot can. An idiot can do anything. However, if they survive or don't kill anyone else is a different matter

[@simonm1447]

Indeed an idiot can also fly an aircraft - at least a single time

[@davidburgess741]

Probably Hank would look pretty silly next to Ali Clarkson!

[@AndyLewsey]

More more more!!

[@djbayr9516]

Hell yes Hank!

[@itstherunningmonkey]

Come on guys, Hank is not 'just any idiot'

[@ltrtg13]

How about getting Hank on the Random Tandem. At least it's not the GCN tandem.

[@trishaleaver3581]

Speed stabilizes.

[@linea2000]

Sam Pilgrim. We need Hank pump tracking a free bike, or trialling a shopper

[@c5173]

as a roadie shouldn't Hank be using a road bike for the trails and mega?

[@AtikurIslam968]

Hello, im 5.6" & 50kg. Does 17" 29er is ok for me?

[@juluisreyes9094]

Depends on your in seam length bro but your height could suit to either small(16) or medium(17)

[@deadflight84]

This title is about me

[@treyhorn5645]

Lol..... so fun

[@ROBINAXE5150]

Jump park next...that would be hilarious!! Love ya Hank

[@rupedog]

Get him some pads!

[@marc-oliviersavignac9334]

Teach him doing wheelie

[@footbaltopicganger]

i prefer videos where blake does the talking

[@VeryUselessPerson]

As a *grade A* idiot, I thank you for this video, ma'am. :|

[@NorthLincsRatting]

Mtb epic.

[@NZWozza]

Haha a novel new way to try and kill Hank. Came closer than most too.

[@footbaltopicganger]

blake should lead it.

[@conradspamer2077]

Maybe its the motorbike background but just cannot fathom not wearing gloves when you KNOW you are going to crash. Sam Pilgrim does the same incomprehensible thing. Why, ffs, do you people do that?

[@mikebeaumont78]

Honestly can hank not just quit gcn and come work for gmbn, then just make videos with best friend Blake.

[@A_shreddingDad]

Oh yea for sure. My step dad rides trails. He married my mom. He’s surely the biggest idiot I know

[@rupedog]

I am of the belief there is getting down a trail, and there is 'riding' a trail. People say I rode this black trail, that jump line.... But what they mean is the got down it, avoided all obstacles, walked when needed etc. That to me isn't riding a trail. Unless I clear nearly every feature perfectly, smoothly, and clear every jump, then I haven't actually ridden the trail. Clean it, 95% perfectly, or you ain't ridden it. 😁

[@beaneater]

Completely stupid to try trial with an enduro bike and such a slack HA....

[@josdaboss]

I’m finally first!

[@gmbn]

🏆🏁

[@rider65]

🤢🤮

[@SUBBETABLINKA]

NO!

[@JoelZieve]

Hank - you're looking like a real mountain biker! Great work! 👊🚵‍♀
