[@bradsaxton6354]

Awesome job Sara. You are a very smart rider and knowing your limits when riding alone is key. What a beautiful area and awesome trail. Thanks for he vid..... 🙂

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you, it was an awesome trail and so beautiful!

[@tomridesbikesPNW]

Your videos are great, I hope more people subscribe to your channel! Keep this format going, it works really well.

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you!

[@gingermartinez7402]

I’m enjoying your videos and yours in particular on hiline is more thorough than others. Maybe I’ll be brave enough to try it next time I’m there. Nice work! Thanks for your work

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you! Good luck if you end up riding it!

[@Michael-h6g]

What an awesome route. So beautiful there. Some day...

[@Sara.Jo.]

I agree!

[@LeviGarciaJul]

Awesome route again, love it Sedona. Thanks for share!!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@dgreensotr]

Thanks for the extended cut. That gave me an honest view of what to expect if I get back to Sedona again.

[@Sara.Jo.]

No problem, thank you for watching 🙂

[@rando4468]

The type of trails you tend to ride really wear tires out much more quickly. I heard the assegai is a little thicker rubber and a little heavier. Good choice for your trails!

[@Sara.Jo.]

So far, so good

[@markjones4896]

Good job, planning to go to Sedona in April so thank you for the trail review and for the tire choice as well ,, but for your first time that was awesome riding keep up the good content 💪🏾👍🏾🤙🏾

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you!

[@AlexeiPavlov]

well she cut out a lot of places that she walked.. this video is not really representing the trail in its full capacity

[@Sara.Jo.]

@@AlexeiPavlovI cut out places where I didn’t walk as well. I try to keep my videos around the 30 min mark, this one is almost 40 min. Walking extends the length of the videos greatly, it’s slow going walking your bike. 🤷‍♀️ if I kept the camera rolling the entire ride it would have been over and hour and half long video.

[@danieldoble7674]

Great videos Sara. Keep up the good work! Enjoy your progression behind the bars and the camera.

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@dee2ski]

Sedona is the Vail of the desert, but for good reason! Thanks for the ride along 🤙

[@Sara.Jo.]

😁 haha, no prob

[@scottkramer1077]

Good for you! Gettin after it!!!

[@Sara.Jo.]

😁

[@JoMo027]

Steep cliffsides!! Glad you took your time!

[@Sara.Jo.]

😁

[@heathnortonflag]

Good to hear. I have avoided this trail as I didn't want to walk a bunch. I might give it a try now.

[@Sara.Jo.]

Same here…definitely give it a go

[@garyharmon5386]

Great video and riding. Beautiful scenery. I have got to get there and ride. I am a retired photojournalist and I would go crazy there with all the photo opportunities. Pedal safe. Btw, thanks for the extended cut

[@Sara.Jo.]

So many photo ops…make a point to get to Sedona- put it on the list!

[@womensmtbnetwork]

Loved the vid, and how you showed the entire loop!! Also, i agree, those tires are a game changer. I have the same ones on my enduro rig!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you! And yes…this tire combo feels perfect 🤩

[@realvaughnfelix]

Brave👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 beautiful too. Beautiful scenery too

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you, it’s so beautiful in Sedona

[@realvaughnfelix]

You inspire me to go out and ride in some far off places and camp etc! @@Sara.Jo.

[@Sara.Jo.]

@@realvaughnfelix awesome I love to hear it!

[@rando4468]

Rides like that I always want to look at the view! Not a good idea. I get the willies sometimes on the edge of trails like this.

[@Sara.Jo.]

Haha I hear that..that’s why sometimes I just have to stop for a second and really take it in

[@williamblake6202]

I've watched fellow U tubers crawl the exposure on that trail. My dinner went cold from riding along with you😅

[@Sara.Jo.]

Hahah! Sorry 😂

[@juanhidalgo7043]

Wow nice! It has been raining here in Marin county California 😢. I can’t wait for rain to stop.

[@Sara.Jo.]

CA is having a very rainy winter it seems

[@elizabethfontaine3071]

YOU ROCK!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thanks!😊

[@joshhas99problems]

Man watching all your videos from Sedona and Hawes have me itching for another AZ trip! Maybe next winter…it’s almost time for another primo PNW riding season up here

[@Sara.Jo.]

Awesome! I hope to get up that way and ride!!

[@joshhas99problems]

@@Sara.Jo. if you ever make the trip up here to Oregon let me know and I’ll show you some awesome trails!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Awesome!

[@lilblaster22]

Sweet ride🎉 Just watched The Cottonwood video last night. Thanks for sharing feelings on the troll. That was great. I've destroyed a few bikes and body parts, monster trucking steep tech, and to me, it's just not that much fun. You're a great rider. All your rides look fun, AF. You are definitely not an intermediate climber👊

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thank you!

[@charliezylstra4007]

10:13 is the tree I clipped with my bar and got ejected off. Still recognize that tree after 10 years!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Ha!! I bet, I remember every tree that has taken me out as well…I kind of like how they are an entity living on the trail though…a vivid memory every time you’re riding by… you can think to yourself ‘you beautiful bastard tree’ 😂

[@TivonSanders]

You're braver than I am. I would not want to ride that trail knowing the exposure is so high and some parts you filmed were bidirectional. 😳

[@Sara.Jo.]

I believe that the entire ride is bidirectional 🫣

[@joannajyates]

Nice Sara! Look me up next time you're here!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Will do! 😁 I would love to ride with you guys…and learn some stuff!!

[@AlexeiPavlov]

let's do a sessioning together!😂

[@MarcNolt]

Is that a hope hub i hear? Awesome riding!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Thanks! It’s a Ethirteen hub

[@willienillie6337]

Nice plant.

[@Danthemant1000]

Busted! 🤣😂🤣

[@Sara.Jo.]

Hahaha

[@rashman763]

Nice trail And view wat santa cruz u ride thanks

[@Sara.Jo.]

Tallboy

[@Eric.V.]

Did you change your tires to beefier ones? Great video!

[@Sara.Jo.]

Yes I did! It’s so much better now 😅

[@Eric.V.]

@@Sara.Jo.Have you noticed the increased tire weight on the climbs? The DHR2’s are one of my favorite tires!

[@Sara.Jo.]

@@Eric.V. no I actually PR’d my first ride with them on. So much more grip. I don’t notice the weight but ‘luggy’ feeling sometimes on the hard pack ..it’s a trade for grip…perfect tires for these trails

[@Eric.V.]

@@Sara.Jo.More grip can definitely lead to increased speed and confidence! Have you done a bike check on the channel yet?

[@Sara.Jo.]

@@Eric.V.not yet, but I should do that at some point 😅

[@AlexeiPavlov]

if you want to become a better rider and clear highline tough sections, you need to switch to flat pedals and start doing some exercise such as Ryan Leach connection or the super rider channel on KZbin. If you keep riding clipped in you will not progress as much.

[@Sara.Jo.]

I appreciate the thorough tips here

[@AlexeiPavlov]

@@Sara.Jo. would you act on them tips? Were you previously aware of the Ryan Leach or Super Rider channels?
