Pushing his new bike to the LIMIT on the best Dupont trail you've never heard of

[@JoeyZaballero]

Good to see you back up and running. Stoked!

[@The_Sampler]

Thanks Joey, feels good my man

[@BoxCarBoy12]

Alex, we never got a bike check from you since you switched to that Fezzari. It seems like you're more about the ride than the equipment, but it would still be cool to get a closer look at what you ride now!

[@ANAX_GR]

You know its a great day when alex uploads

[@granduerslater1739]

absolutely!!!yeah buddy......

[@JoshuaClarked]

Hell YES.

[@marccope942]

Thank you for filming on a trail that we all ride because we don’t do park! You rock, Alex!

[@JuanWay2Rock]

It's nice to see techy type trails where everything isn't about 'Bombs Away' and you take your time to think about that next turn. That kind of reminds me of the mountain biking me and my friends use to do back in the 1990's (yes... I'm that old...lol) - but exploring and trying out different trails and things is in my opinion, 'the spirit of mountain biking.' Once again, another great video Alex.

[@Dorkbike]

Couldn't agree more. Machine built flow trails are fun but these raw trails are where you learn much more.

[@nalder4x4runnerfamilyoverl93]

this was like watching Lewis and Clark on MTB. forge on fellas. epic trail, boys. epic.

[@JoshuaClarked]

Man something special about the contagious excitement I get from your rides Alex. Always gets me back in the saddle. Love your stuff man!

[@dw1572]

He's back with consistency, huzzah

[@afterimage1993]

When Alex uploads twice in such succession it's better than winning the lottery. 🔥💯👌

[@KestrelYI]

Riding the desert southwest is nice but there's definitely something special about western NC. Thanks for sharing! I needed the nostalgia.

[@kylebierce2433]

Hitting DuPont and Pisgah for the first time next weekend. These vids are getting me hyped. Can’t wait!!

[@The_Sampler]

Definitely recommend perusing the channel as I've got almost every trail in those two place documented for you to choose from!

[@kylebierce2433]

@@The_Sampler for sure dude! Been watchin ya for years. Loving the new stuff you got coming out these days🤙

[@ericsharp5079]

Hell yes !! Another video! Love it! Stoked to see you stoked!

[@20lakey]

I LOVE THE CONSISTENT UPLOADS SO GOOD

[@michaelamato1690]

I have hiked that trail several times never thought anyone would ride it. Alex proved me wrong. You all are crazy!

[@michaelamato1690]

Is this real or some sort of scam?

[@DeepDiveExplorer]

I just got my SB150 4 weeks ago. We have already been in an Enduro race and just finished our first bike park adventure. Wow, just wow! It inspires so much confidence! 👏

[@roha2317]

You are killing it with the uploads and the riding. Take care out there.

[@mattmcgee7563]

Absolute content machine lately. Thanks!

[@fivetool]

I love the post injury content, Alex. Keep it up, we love seeing what you are up to.

[@jonjustinlanier]

Love that the vlogs have returned!

[@darthjarjar2742]

Love that you're getting back into that Groove of uploads I've been enjoying them all thoroughly

[@markhirst1296]

Haven’t watched you for a little while, but I’ve come back and you’ve produced yet another super enjoyable vid. The reason why I subscribed in the first place. Keep up the great work!

[@miketheperson]

Rocky Ridge to Ridgeline is one of the absolute best days out!

[@Dorkbike]

Dude is killing it on the videos lately. Now I need to put that on my bucket list of rides. Cheers.

[@ignaciotapia6704]

I just rode this trail today duddeeeeee. The climb up is a real endurance.

[@konnorfink3610]

I rode this trail the first time I went to NC! It’s so techy and it is a hike a bike for sure!

[@kenfoley509]

Happy to see you back at it!

[@hehehe21123]

Nooo, this is one of the hidden gems in dupont. The climb is a fun techy challenge.

[@MikeTriz]

Love all the recent videos!

[@pedalstrkrmtb7716]

Love your "stay behind a tree" tip!

[@ffdar9119]

Sampler: "What in Tarnation!!" Were you born in the Old west or was that your Yosemite Sam impression?😂 Great downhill Gnar, Looked super fun! Awesome vid made me smile!!

[@forbify5079]

that trail looks gnarly af great riding for a few weeks on the bike

[@JamesRobertMTB]

Damn! That is a 🔥 setup!!!

[@mtbr1963]

Rode that trail earlier this Year. Definitely a hike-a-bike. Love the DH back down. (Paycheck)

[@ShannonBredesen]

Gotta love that classic sampling!

[@ShannonBredesen]

Nobody like spam bs... you should probably go ride a bike instead of spamming people...

[@dallasprosser6099]

I love that trail! Definitely a hike a bike for me

[@timmcdermott815]

Great return to form! Good video!

[@jamescaldwell3007]

I’ve ridden by that sooooooo many times without actually ever doing it. Looks super fun. Add in on switchback to Rocky now.

[@blueengel68]

One man's MTB heaven...

[@kevinpeters8372]

You’re killing it bro. Nice man🤘🏻🤘🏻

I LOVE STONE MOUNTAIN!!! Soooo sick! If you’re ever up here in Oregon, I can show you a few similar trails!

[@UpHillWill]

Best Bike check ever🤣

[@gregstevens2917]

Sick! The stoke is high...you know what to do. :D

[@dylansimpson2369]

It’s a pretty rowdy trail. Nothing like it worth the hike

[@singletrackmania1]

This is it! Mountain biking!!!

[@williambarnes3492]

Way cool I thought I knew all the trails, guess I know where im riding next weekend

[@thezachinator11]

Haha knew you were riding Stone Mtn as soon as I watched the intro. Have yet to ride it but I brought my 5 year old and 1 year old daughter up it for a character building Father's Day hike 🤣

[@rando4468]

WOW! What an exciting ride. Just have to let yourself go. My forearms got tired just watching! I would have gone OTB a few times for sure. ;-)

[@gerrygadget]

What bike is Alex riding? Is it similar to that Yeti?

[@simpcli1]

Views at the top are super.

[@markstrutz]

Great vid! Ridden that one a couple times. Always wondered why it's not a loop like the other awesome rides in DuPont? Farlow next?

[@b.r.3232]

Fantastically nuts!

[@TheBrickFactor]

Been there. Great trail.

[@ddsgardening7437]

Nice riding guys

[@johntanchin2545]

that techie climb looks sick. i would definitely send it even on a hardtail!

[@justing888]

Alex! You have to check out Jarrod's place in Summerville Georgia. I know GA is your old stomping grounds and now we finally have a legit bike park!

[@mrrims]

Hidden gem right there

[@jabariberryman1588]

Thanks, a dream, absolutely awesome 😏

[@patrickbrzozowski6175]

I dig the RIDE MTB tee inspired by RUN DMC

[@TommyHuynh]

Repping that jersey 🤘🤘🤘

[@TheMTBbasher]

I had the opportunity to ride this trail with the Cane Creek squad. It was gnarly.

[@Friskee62]

WOW...great trail. Nice shreddin'...

[@The_Sampler]

Thanks Thomas! 👍

[@wc4201]

That's more like the kind of trails i've ridden all my life. I got a Yeti SB130 and its definitely confidence inspiring. If you like that rocky stuff check out Government Canyon in San Antonio Texas next time you're in the area.

[@lynxg4641]

Sweet trail, looks super fun. Good to see that you're keeping it up and building the skills and fitness back up, trying more climbs like that will certainly help improve fitness and slow speed handling. That tight stuff probably would be easier on something with a little more realistic Geo/WB, not a 48"/1220mm WB for a size Medium. Your friends may not be dentists, but $7k for a GX build bike, that's just silly, BUT, I guess they're making you pay that warranty upfront for the 1 in 3 or 4 frames they'll have to warranty. Personally I think your friend could have saved $300 and got a better drivetrain with the C1/SLX option, but probably couldn't find it in stock.

[@shanzb]

Keep the vids coming 🤙🏼 How about an updated bike check video?

[@BrianVaughn]

I think the Rick and Morty reference went over Ty's head. That was a great episode. New trail day is always a good one.

[@The_Sampler]

haha oh TOTALLY Brian! I remember thinking the same thing in the moment and just decided to continue moving on 🤣

[@tybrowncaldwell4664]

Never seen it!

[@mntbikeloui4087]

Is that the trail to the right, before Rocky ridge? It was too cool to meet you and your brother in the lake Imaging parking lot a couple months ago, I was the old guy asking if there was any singletrack around here? Thanks for the vids and the stickers! Stay safe!

[@speedysteedy759]

Good to see that the original content is back and streaming often. But can anyone count how many times he said 'Seth"?

[@speedysteedy759]

What number do I text you on and how did I win a competition I never entered? By the way, what’s the prize?

[@offdaystv]

Dude we gotta ride soon, I’ve been going to NC once a month to ride and would love to hit some trails with you

[@kainpwnsu]

"Pretty overgrown," indeed. How many pedal scraped legs on that climb? Looks AMAZING. I'm a fan of Yeti trail bikes - mine climbs all day long.

[@netposerx]

Clint Gibbs explored that trail last year.

[@saddleweary5760]

You may have seen it but Clint has a video where he met Alex, I was hoping they would ride together but alot was going on that day. It was good to see two greats meet for the first time.

[@jamegumm]

I hiked up that, there’s (was) a little bit of flow on the other side

[@garyharmon5386]

Great video and riding

[@OverlandGeneration]

I rode it! I love Dupont!

[@stevencole7331]

Confidence comes roaring back .

[@tomassanesson902]

Sooo awesome epik trail 👍🤘🤘❤❤❤

[@mike_rides_bikes]

Drinking game, take a shot every time Alex says trail in the video 😂

[@jamiehernandez4378]

Good to see some Alex sends

[@walkerswild]

I was just waiting for Ty to mess up your outro again!

[@tallyrc]

Wish you would label what trails you're on in the video. I've been up rocky ridge plenty of times but it's a loop and then you are on that bald which I didn't recognize and then it looked like you came down Ridgeline until you popped out on the paved road which I'm assuming is guion Farm. anyway I was so confused. Lol great fun none the less.

[@The_Sampler]

Stone mountain was the out and back we did. It's just off the Ridgeline trail and a great addition to it

[@tallyrc]

@@The_Sampler ah ok I've done rocky ridge from sky valley.. I guess y'all went up from the bottom off off guion Farm..

[@simpcli1]

I've done it. It is super rowdy. It is 100% hike a bike up.

[@brulej]

I want to go back there and try the tech climb!

[@mikekobylasz3490]

You want some fun go hit weed patch !! Huge climb tons of switchbacks

[@DocXGAMC]

Looks like Texas singletrack with all the babyheads.

[@markrem6573]

How do you like that Fezzari?

[@kellyriffle4750]

Been up there several times

[@futuresight2693]

That was the first trail I ever rode in DuPont. 😂

[@Pist_n_Broke]

Nice bike dude

[@taylordarion3477]

12:55 nice cut

[@harryainsworth9204]

whats the saddle hes running there? looks so cool

[@mtbville]

Excellent content bud 🤩🤘🔥

[@amandapeine6745]

Stone Mountain+Rocky Ridge==Geology Class

[@jakeo6528]

ridden it several times...most Pisgahish trail in Dupont

[@travismorgan4249]

Awesome!

[@christophj3014]

New Single track sampler video out......like button hit

[@scotttepper3316]

At 9:45 can you go over the rock to your right?!!? That would be a great move…if it’s doable.

[@Duncan23]

Wait is 150mm considered big travel again?!? My Bronson will be happy to know he isnt a trail bike anymore and has been upgraded to an enduro bike again 😂

[@sydney366]

Lol

[@MrAnimal1971]

This is a 29ers natural habitat !! Great camera work Alex!

[@brothermike5]

Yeti’s are GOAT

[@mitchrankin6304]

What bike do you ride

[@garbagewitch1]

That is my favorite trail in DuPont
