This Big Dumb Ride in Whistler Nearly Broke Us

[@B1KER]

Super fun vid. 7300' of climbing is no joke. Solid day. Great job making it through that.

[@splooshmtb]

With that much elevation, still hitting spicy trails down that are THAT physical and technical, you guys are just built different. Big ups bois.

[@kazenokami5133]

Love these longer style videos of yours. Always entertaining and so high quality man. Epic shots, nice commenting and sick riding. These trails were so fun to see. Keep it up!

[@DemonicVelocity]

I love your chill way to tell an adventourous story. Makes me want to get out and do something like that

[@SpokesmanMTB]

So glad I'm not the only one who drains gallons of liquid from my helmet during/after a big climb. (Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one!) I loved this exposé. Great work!

[@mahalomydude]

I can't make it stop!

[@xandergriffiths7652]

I MISSED THIS!! Don't get me wrong the silent biking is a super cool and relaxing concept but the flow of these videos and length and everything reminds me of the I Only Ride Park Tour and those are the best mountain biking videos I've ever watched. Plus we got the old intro back :))

[@mtbvc9545]

You guys are the best. Love the vibe!

[@federicomarmolejo1952]

One of my favorites videos, so enjoyable. Those stats are insane guys, congratulations!!!!

[@MattPula]

oh man, stoked to watch this - been a while since you guys have done one of these!

[@mahalomydude]

Our bodies can only handle so much. 😂

[@MattPula]

@@mahalomydude fair 😂

[@tanner_kirk]

Now these are the Mahalo My Dude videos I’ve missed. Great work boys🤝

[@andrewrecko6078]

Killing it, love the shred, and good times! Inspirational.

[@Mtb_Gilbin]

Double back diamond to warm up 😲 😮

[@Hoshea_Levi]

WE NEED IFHT BACK PLEASE!!!

[@shaunoleary8740]

Another great video. Super entertaining!

[@MikeGlorfindel]

Wow, I am doing a charity ride from London to Brighton in September but having been unable to train due to injury I think it will be as hard for me as this looked for you despite only being 61ish miles with only 988 meters of elevation! So jealous of what you guys have to ride over there. Top of the world was stunning. Love your vids so keep on rocking! 🤪🤘👌

[@mahalomydude]

Good luck on the ride! We didn’t really train for this one either but having the mindset of “just keep pedalling” always helps! You got it. 💪

[@llullwllallkll]

thanks for the ride!!! ✌️✌️✌️

[@MTBwMacc]

So awesome looks like a really fun yet enduring event

[@Mvees]

This is a massive day. Even Lord of the Squirrels + Westside would be a very tough day! Congratulations 👊🏼💪🏼

[@josiahhorning2813]

My last sufferfest was the Leadville Trail 100

[@michaelthorne1347]

That was a fun video, thanks, my dudes!

[@bigbird2451]

You guys have me beat. And I thought that I was tough. My biggest day was probably The Turkey Burn. It's an annual ride put on by The Warrior Society. they're an MTB club, comprised of mostly American First Nations folks from Southern California. It's two different laps up and down a mountain in Southern California that I can't remember the name of. It's held the day after Thanksgiving and the organizers welcome you home with a huge leftover Thanksgiving meal back at the bottom. I've also done a huge solo loop several times from my parent's house in South Pasadena up through Pasadena and Altadena to the start of the Mount Wilson Toll Road. thirteen miles up to the top of Mount Wilson. Then a couple miles of paved descent to the top of the Gabrielano Trail that takes you all the way back down to town, with 21 cold river crossings, past JPL and I usually did the Brown Mountain loop for extra kicks. Then grinding down the Arroyo Seco and home across town. I usually did this one in the winter so the water was near icy and I would go straight to the kitchen sink to revive my feet in hot water. Well done Folks!

[@andrewrecko6078]

Just ordered some stickers, rad shred Matt and Jason! Please stick an extra sheet of sticker(s) in my bag, you guys rock! Cheers, Andrew

[@mahalomydude]

Thanks for the support! 🤙

[@Mcmartinshreds]

best mtb channel!

[@318Arnie]

There's a similar challenge in Saalbach, Austria. You descend from the surrounding five peaks, totaling over 5.000m (15.000ft). Luckily there's a lot less climbing involved, though!

[@savageferria505]

Mental. Killed it bois

[@leetlau]

Well done

[@imabigfanbro]

7300' of climbing!? You guys should climb the whole Enchilada at this point!.

[@mahalomydude]

Maybe if there's ice cream at the top...

[@daricora]

That quick cut at 14:50 looked like a dude was passed out on a bench cuddling his mountain bike

[@mahalomydude]

Nothing like a quick power nap with your bike.

[@2dcutout]

For some Whistler 'locals' there sure are a lot of great trails you've not ridden around there! Having lived there for 2 summers, I ticked off as many as possible - maybe you could make a mini-series on ticking off ones you've not done?

[@KarelRybak-w5i]

i love when you are louder

[@smckinnon]

I've had my eye on this trail for awhile, I think I now know I can safely skip it 😅

[@Ginger_shredman]

💪

[@OGMTB]

Great video and what punishment. Did you sleep the entire next day?

[@s3l1m35]

GNAR GNAR my Dudes.

[@milanb.6022]

That looked like great fun from the comfort of my armchair

[@mattkock]

What an epic day. ❤️

[@davidgelhar]

My suck is my bike, but riding a gravel race and having to quit 5 miles from the end because a medicine you were prescribed doesnt let you thermal regulate your body tempurature and you almost die of heatstroke.

[@prawnis]

i love you bro

[@Tequila628]

Jason, Matt, what can you say about Propain's vpp suspension and their bikes in general? I'm eyeing Hugene atm, mahalo my dudes 🤙🤙🤙

[@mahalomydude]

We’re big fans! The Tyees have been a good choice for when we have no idea what we’re getting into. They pedal well, descend well and have held up to a season of abuse so far. Definitely give the Hugene a try, we’ve heard similar things about that platform!

[@oliveiragmr1982]

my son and me did micro climent and dark krystel

[@sveilleux32118]

My last sufferfest was in Blackcomb => Dark Crystal, Hey Bud and Micro Climate. 29km, 1671m, in 4h23. I’m up to a challenge like your, invite me next year! 🙌 Keep up with your good stuff Dude 🤙

[@mahalomydude]

Woof! That Blackcomb climb is no joke!

[@Mavo1989]

Unless i had an e-bike aint no way this is happening

[@mahalomydude]

An e-bike version would be super fun!

[@Garrison-Riker]

The boys are xc riders now

[@garrettgriffin9613]

How has Jason never done top of the world!?

[@mahalomydude]

Because Dirt Merchant is way too tempting along the way.

[@matth8924]

How do you guys like the Propain bikes?

[@mahalomydude]

We like 'em! The Tyee has been a good bike to bring for when we have no idea what we're getting in to. Great pedalling platform and confident in the steeps. There's not much it can't do!

[@ChildrenOfWhistler]

Very glad you didn’t out Andy of the hidden trails around the sanctioned ones you rode. HMU and I’ll point you in the right direction for some off video fun

[@Bradley_mtb]

Mahalo my dude respond if I should send my first backie this weekend

[@mahalomydude]

Send it!

[@Bradley_mtb]

@@mahalomydudeI did it 🫡

[@joewood772]

love the vid, is it just me or are the downhill clips more shaky than normal?

[@mahalomydude]

A lot of this was shot early or late in the day in some pretty dim light. Not ideal for stable footage!

[@joewood772]

@@mahalomydude ye definitely understandable awesome vid guys love these type of “journey” videos!

[@JonahTheBona415]

Is the realationship with trek over?

[@mahalomydude]

Nope! We're just in a polygamous relationship with Trek and Propain right now.

[@HenrySchwertfeger]

jealous

[@MTBFL11]

gravel riding is the worst
