Keeping Up With BKXC in Downieville, Ca.

[@DailyMTBRider]

I had a great time with Brian and Paul! What other youtubers do you think I should ride with? 🤔

[@JeffLenoskyTrailBoss]

Daily MTB Rider me 😏

[@ghitmar]

Hmmmmmmmmmmm Seth

[@DailyMTBRider]

I can't wait to meet up and ride with you sometime Jeff!

[@bighomielifting]

Trail peeks

[@alexthemtbr]

Pick me pick me 🙋🏽‍♂️

[@bkxc]

Yes!! So glad we got to get a ride in on one of the most iconic routes in MTB history. What we didn't see is one of the most scary almost-crashes ever when Josh took the lead for the first time put the heat on!!

[@DailyMTBRider]

I wish I could have seen it, but the good thing is you’re all good and we have an awesome time!

[@andyginther8562]

BKXC so cool to see you ride from this perspective. So fast, stylie and you’re freaking ripped man!

[@urbanphotographer]

That looked great! I’ve checked it out on the map now and it’s just a flight from Sweden to SF and another 3 hour drive i guess! ;) You’ve toned down your own riding skills but you are a good rider!

[@dougderr2407]

Love your videos. Great work! I've been riding Downieville for over 30 years. I'm 70 years young and still ride. Going back this summer. Many of those trails go back to the 1850's during the gold rush. Rode Downieville with a Specialized NO suspension, Cannondale F700 hard tail, GT LTS 2000 and finally a Cannondale Scalpel with the "Lefty".

[@B1KER]

Was fun seeing your lines dude. I've only seen like one other person take your line through the waterfall. Sad thing is the internet doesn't get to see how sketchy that line really is. The depth perception on GoPro blows! Thanks for coming down to ride and hang out with all of us. :)

[@DailyMTBRider]

It was such a great time Robert! I can't wait for next year!

[@VanCan]

I need to start channeling Paul's level of excitement. So pumped!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Paul is the definition of a hype man!

[@TonyFernandezjkdjedi]

My first time up there last week was half as smooth as you guys did it....U SLAYED IT!! Nice run! Awesome to see my fVORITE yOUTUBE subscriptions riding together.

[@DailyMTBRider]

That's awesome you got up there! It was so cool to ride with Brian!

[@newbiemtb6741]

That looks like so much fun! Great video with a few great riders. You held it down out there! 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks man! Stoked you enjoyed watching. Riding with Brian was a hoot

[@thothbaboon]

Wow! What a blast you must have had a great day. Thanks for sharing

[@DailyMTBRider]

It was a lot of fun man! Happy you enjoyed it!

[@TimFromWales]

Great video. Downieville becomes RockyVille! What a trail!

[@martialsunwalk9955]

Man I love Brian's advice "Walk down the stuff you can't do and then you get the stuff you can and your skills will progress"

[@DailyMTBRider]

So true! You just have to get out there and do it!

[@TheCrashingDad]

wow... downieville looks like a friggin' gnarly chunky blast!

[@DailyMTBRider]

It's a ton of fun man! It's hard to tell on video but it's mainly just fast blasting most of the time!

[@stevethesmazsmathers9112]

That's so badass! I've got to plan to get out there! Next year...

[@DailyMTBRider]

I think you'll love it man! Heck, anyone will love it!

[@MTBFlowRider]

Killing it brah! Good Times hanging.

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Orbie! It was great riding and getting to know you!

[@BrianVaughn]

Great video. It was awesome getting to meet you. You were hitting lines I never even thought about.

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Brian! It was awesome to meet you and get to know you more man!

[@mrrims]

Great riding guys! Brian is a beast!!!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Brian is the man, that's for sure!

[@willbros1499]

Nice video man! Glad I happened here by accident after watching one of Brian's videos. It brings perspective into how fast Dane and Zach are when you see how fast you guys were motoring down the trail, and even Brian will concede that he can't hold their tires for more than a brief period. I made a video once of an Intense demo day locally, and at one point I slapped my gimbal and GoPro on a local rider here in northwest Arkansas who is ridiculously fast and stylish...Tanner Stolt. When I posted the video up on KZbin, people accused me of speeding up the footage when he had my camera rig on. They just couldn't believe he could ride the same trails they ride...THAT fast. I told them I didn't touch it, but that it just appears so much faster because it's me riding in the rest of it. :-) Sorry for the poor lighting and sound...mottled sun, and it was before I figured out how to diminish wind noise on the Session, but this is what ridiculously fast trail riding looks like! ***Start at the **2:10** mark*** when Tanner has the rig on. It's nuts, and I did not alter the speed one iota. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iauZiIWCrp6ieq8

[@DailyMTBRider]

There's a level from a good, experienced rider to absolutely insane! Those guys (including guys like Tanner you filmed) are nuts!

[@willbros1499]

Yeah...I got home and watched that footage, and I'm not joking, he was going so fast that at times I didn't recognize the trail, even though I've ridden every inch of it hundreds of times. Humbling to say the least. I subscribed, and looking forward to your videos popping up in my feed! Ride fast, take chances....

[@DirtbagsMTB]

Dude those Trails aren't too far south from me I'll have to check them out sometime. Awesome riding man!

[@DailyMTBRider]

They're awesome trails man! I'd highly recommend shredding them!

[@lostman65]

awesome video man! great to see the mtb-collab.

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Leo! I'm stoked you enjoyed it!

[@cycleriderroy]

Excellent, loved it man

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks man! Stoked you enjoyed it!

[@turner02]

That line thru the waterfall you did is very impressive. I have only seen pro riders go that route during the race(dville classic).

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks man! I just went for it and somehow came out the other side!

[@th_js]

I love your goggles and helmet Josh!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks tomi, the matchy matchy is on point!

[@CasualMTB]

haha, not even a minute into the video and you fanboying over Brian - no kidding though I'd be exactly the same. Great video though man, been great to see it from both yours and Paul's perspectives.

[@DailyMTBRider]

Oh total fanboy! It was awesome riding with him!

[@povtrails1219]

Great riding! Looked awesome

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks man! Stoked you enjoyed it!

[@th_js]

I just watched Paul's video about this, great videos both!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Nice, Paul is the man!

[@dustinpitts7798]

That looked like a total blast

[@PaulThePunter]

SOOOOO FAST! 💨

[@DailyMTBRider]

Not as fast as we could be..... time to go back!

[@jeffsharp4982]

Getting ready to watch now, and I predict Brian is faster through rock gardens and climbing, and you're faster through flow sections and jump lines.

[@DailyMTBRider]

So what do you think now that you've watched it all?

[@jeffsharp4982]

Looked like it was no problem at all for you keeping up with Brian. Hard to tell if he could keep up with you though while you were leading;)

[@jeffsharp4982]

Cool video!

[@DailyMTBRider]

I guess you won't know until next time we ride next!

[@reaganrides515]

Love the vids man!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Reagan! Stoked you enjoy them!

[@mtbsavant5414]

Good stuff! Nice meeting you that day.

[@DailyMTBRider]

It was great to meet you too man! I can't wait to ride again!

[@mountaintime4276]

That was great!!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Jeff! Always stoked to have you watching 😉

[@nofrontbrakes]

Always take the high line 😎

[@DailyMTBRider]

The high line is always the fun line!

[@jf8534]

Look at you getting around like the towns daily mountain bike!

[@DailyMTBRider]

I'm making the rounds my man!

[@kencycles3655]

You sir, were shredding! 🤙

[@DailyMTBRider]

Haha thanks Ken - that was the goal!

[@salvadordelgado7444]

Great video

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Salvador - stoked you liked it!

[@BockaufBiken]

Why didn't KZbin recommend your channel yet :D Wtf! You got to do things yourself i guess! Dude, of course i subbed! Good stuff here!

[@DailyMTBRider]

Stoked to have you on the channel man! Sometimes it takes people just a little longer to get pushed my way!

[@jadeng5625]

Awesome! You ride in the greatest places. I think you should ride with Seth's Bike Hacks. P.S. Do more hardtail videos. I really enjoy them. Probably because I love my hardtail so much.

[@DailyMTBRider]

I'm super lucky to go ride great places! And more hardtail videos to come!

[@MTBPlanB]

Nice riding guys. Looks like BK is carrying a baby calf in that backpack.

[@DailyMTBRider]

He's got something big in there!

[@jaythizzle1969]

You dudes > my friends

[@rogerbuck1649]

Paul The Punter sent me. cool vid thanks .

[@DailyMTBRider]

Paul is the man! Happy to have you over on my channel Roger!

[@duckyduck174]

You shall not pass!! Make me laugh so much lol

[@s2korpionic]

Oh no! A sponsored trail by the big S! What are we ever gonna do?!

[@DailyMTBRider]

We're all going to die! Or just enjoy their great trail!

[@ianjoostens3999]

Nice vid josh

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Ian, stoked you liked it!

[@txtx12]

Do you guys have tick problem? How do you guys deal with it？I’m in NY, Keep getting those sucker in the last few rides.

[@DailyMTBRider]

No ticks in Washington and I think California too

[@mannyfnsc29]

So, did you shred it, rail it, rip it, send it, roost it or smeash it ?

[@DailyMTBRider]

Uhhhhh all of the above me amigo!

[@wasabisdaddy]

15:30 Brian has the "roadie tan" on his arms. No wonder he was wearing a tank that day.

[@DailyMTBRider]

Me and him both! He tries to fix it, I just hide mine!

[@on1ytheb3st]

9:10 haha is that Alex?

[@DailyMTBRider]

😂 Paul totally sounds like Alex there!

[@DougZ73]

Brian just riding and not filming??

[@richmindsethub1662]

Nice

[@DailyMTBRider]

Thanks Trail Biker! Stoked you enjoyed it!

[@roccopietrofesa7914]

Seth, Phil, Alex, GMBN - Blake

[@DailyMTBRider]

It would be epic to ride with all those guys!

[@memememe843]

Please consider having a class reunion

[@blakeekalb677]

Still waiting on the tutorial about how to “dirt jump” 😉😉😛😛😉😉

[@DailyMTBRider]

Don't worry Blake - it will come one day!

[@blakeekalb677]

yeee

[@GLedesma]

@dailymtb , Brian doesn't run an XC channel... All of his interviews he states that he didn't know that XC meant cross country, but he says that it means 'across the country'.

[@DailyMTBRider]

So true! I was just giving him a hard time about it!

[@th_js]

He knew it was cross country, but he didn't know it meant lycra and bikes with 100mm of travel

[@GLedesma]

@Bkxc is that right? Lycra?

[@charlesholland6851]

so weird seeing Brian ride. 😝 i’m used to p.o.v.

[@DailyMTBRider]

It's pretty cool isn't it!

[@FlowFinderUSA]

BK....C'mon man sit down, make some popcorn and watch the LOTR trilogy.

[@DailyMTBRider]

Haha I knew someone would chime in about the Lord of the rings!

[@tjnorth210]

wow i’m early

[@DailyMTBRider]

You are early, and in fact the first comment! Thanks for checking it out Tim!

[@gabrielrochefort1555]

Didnt you sell your evil?

[@DailyMTBRider]

I did, this was from back in June!

[@FilipMatacin]

You and Phill Metz..

[@DailyMTBRider]

I would love to ride with Phil - he's the man!

[@christianheinz9163]

Paul sounds like hairy main when he yells

[@DailyMTBRider]

Haha yes he does, Paul has his own flare though!

[@christianheinz9163]

Probably a less scummy person as well haha

[@axial27]

oof

[@DailyMTBRider]

I'll take that as a good oof instead of a bad one 😂

[@taunir713]

The tanktop marks the groups gaylord

[@DailyMTBRider]

No hatin' on the tanktop man!

[@taunir713]

Daily MTB Rider what goes around...

[@DailyMTBRider]

[@taunir713]

Daily MTB Rider yeah get one with Trump on it and no one will recognize the real gay anymore
