Colin spends equal parts of time on the MTB and the moto, so we picked an appropriate route for his first ever EMTB ride. He actually got a loaner from a friend in Durango and basically took to it right away. Most people shuttle this one via a 16 mile dirt road, but we climbed Calico instead to make this a proper loop, with a little out and back on the mid section of Calico. Cheers to the moto boys for getting most of the trees cleared, no easy task after an unreasonably windy winter. Colin had ridden this on his moto and on the MTB before, so it was cool to hear his perspective on the eeeb thing. The more ways to have fun in the woods with good friends, the better. Slay some trail this weekend! This was ridden on my Yeti 160e. The San Juan shall provide.

Yes! Rico has fantastic trails. I rode upper Calico a few weeks back and the view from above the trees was unreal.

[@BikeLifewithRob]

Just can’t beat the views

[@invaderzimrocksify]

Ahh the sweet whir sound of EB's going uphill ❤️

[@natehills9388]

Purrs like a kitten.

[@eugenespreutels8305]

Awesome stuff boys. What a trail, just classic Colorado backcountry riding. I'll put that on my to ride list for sure!

[@SeanSharpless]

Great riding, boys! What a sick trail!

[@knordberg]

I have never heard of this trail before. How cool! I'll be that's spectacular in the fall.

[@natehills9388]

Need to check it out when the leaves are changing.

[@henryhester1897]

Have t see one of your videos for years. Cool to see you went E. That trail reminded me of Doctor. Great job Nate.

[@natehills9388]

I have 8 bikes. This one is better on the EMTB as it’s mostly used my motos.

[@JamesLG4]

I love my dentist bike, hopefully I get a chance to demo this orthodontist bike at the Gathering!

[@LagBomer]

Absolutely beautiful.

[@stumpy25lbs]

Stunning trails + fast riding = another quality mtb vid! (+Love the intro!) 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@natehills9388]

Appreciate it!

[@thedude8267]

yooo trail looks awesome

[@skoofer]

What a coincidence, I was just looking at this loop on trailforks trying to decide if I'd have the legs for it or not...I ain't got no e-bike but I did just get an eagle cassette so here's hoping I can make it to the top!

[@natehills9388]

Most shuttle this one. You will be walking but it’s worth it.

[@mattman237]

Best episode in a while and that's saying something given the HQ content you put out weekly!

[@natehills9388]

Cheers Matt.

[@coreymtb]

Another banger!

[@jeanyonsei2318]

5:08 had me jumping off my chair lol. Superb!

[@harryls1283]

That is the kind of ride I like the most. A few rock gardens along the way and just go with the flow. No jumps or really hard to do features. It was cool. Where is that place. 🤙

[@Montblanc1986]

Amazing as always!! Hope a bike build comes out on this bad boy!

Love the videos! From all your riding in CO, whats your recommended bike travel or setup? Maybe a video on something like that?

[@natehills9388]

I switch bikes constantly.

Never mind, location on the title. Thanks for the video.

[@Happy_Biker]

Funny thing, I didn't notice what you were riding at first- you really have tamed that horsie, haven't you? The first video you made with it, you weren't so much in control of it, but this one looked natural. You rocked it 👍

[@natehills9388]

This was Colin’s first ride on an Eeeeb

Greetings from Bangkok. Thanks for sharing! Great ride on the 165E! With the extra weight, have you mastered pivoting your bike on the front wheel? Looking forward to getting home and riding my Gen 3 Levo. Blue skies brother...

[@MountainBikingTrips]

Is it better downhill on E-MTB or Classic bike for you? FREERIDAY :)

[@natehills9388]

Depends on the track I suppose.

[@Deocarlos]

Why so many trees on the ground in the US and Canada forests?

[@aaron.bailey]

Pine beetle infestation about 15 years ago so lots of dead standing trees that get blown down in every storm

Getting old that you need an ebike?

Need has nothing to do with it. sorry about your ego.

[@bikeyhoho3565]

Well Nate was my favourite bicycle related channel. Now since it’s motorbike related I’m sadly unsubscribing. :(

[@natehills9388]

2 out of 300 plus vids on my e bike. You must be so mad.

[@SEM5388]

Hmmm. Shuttling rides with two gas-sucking trucks or getting a little pedal assist from a battery that weighs less than a hydration pack. I think you are missing the point.

[@bikeyhoho3565]

@@SEM5388 you’re right. I totally don’t get the point of ebikes or shuttling. If I wanted a dirt bike I would be a man and ride a real dirt bike. Not a hybrid half motorbike, half pedal bike. But to each his own.

[@SEM5388]

@@bikeyhoho3565 You would be a "man" and ride a "dirt bike?" Can't women ride? Is a guy on an e-mtb, not a man? All very confusing.
