Our new Ride Along Series is a mix of POV, VLOG and behind the scenes video from all around the world as we set out to ride new trails and old favorites. Follow along as we bring you for a ride to show you some awesome mountain bike trails, cool destinations and local info if you're looking to plan a trip or try out something different on your next road trip.
The Zen Trail is one of the best trails in St. George, Utah in our opinion as offers a nice climb, really cool rock features and some epic views from the top. There is also a sustained descent, which we absolutely love. The trail is pretty advanced in nature but can be navigated by fit intermediates who are willing to find alternate walk-around lines over some of the bigger rock features. If you're mountain biking in St. George, Utah, be sure to check out the Zen Trail.

I don't comment too often but I have to say, the footage with camera rearward is some of the best I've come across for really showing the topography. GoPro's so frequently make everything look flat and screw with proper perspective, but this rearward chase footage shows it so well! Nice vid!

[@TheLoamWolf]

Right on thanks very much for the feedback Kevin! Glad you enjoyed it

[@mikeh9949]

This just makes me want to go riding so much more.... can’t wait for the snow to melt.

[@TheLoamWolf]

Heck yeah it does! Pray for Dirt!

[@lokmtb8503]

I'm extremely impressed with Drews technical climbing skills and fitness. Nice work!

[@TheLoamWolf]

Haha. Thanks.

[@zensmylie5393]

Man I live in Scotland but for sure I hope to make it there some day looks sick and my name is Zen so it seems only right I should ride it at least once.🤘🏼

[@TheLoamWolf]

Haha, yes ride the trail named after you! you'll certainly have a good time.

[@ianmorgan4671]

Looks an amazing place to ride.A nice bit of escapism from lockdown.Good to see the Briskers out.

[@TheLoamWolf]

I have terrible hand circulation and my fingers are always cold! haha

@@TheLoamWolf You need Spank vibrocore bars .They helped me a lot.

[@matt_metcalf]

@@TheLoamWolf You ought to try the Flexx bars from Fasst mtb. They help a lot with fatigue, especially in terrain like this. Norm was running them I believe. They are made locally here in St. George too

[@stuartthomasson5027]

Zen is fun and Very Technical. As a local it’s one of my favorites

[@TheLoamWolf]

Definitely an awesome ride!

[@cassysamel3914]

Zen trail is beautiful. Next time I ride it, it'll definitely be on a short travel bike.

[@TheLoamWolf]

Right on. It's fun and playful on a little shorter bike for sure

[@zephyruzzen8976]

I hope to receive that kind of bike huhu I so love it from the Philippines

[@c1mat1]

Nice video! I especially like that climb you did at 7:00. I know that spot and you made it look easy on your first attempt. To bad you guys missed the 2nd half of the trail. Going through the rocks and down the waterfall and up some killer rock faces are the best.

[@Cyclist18]

Wouldn't be a mountain biking video without seeing a guy in board shorts walk his trail bike up a hill😂

[@jeff7086]

wait a second....I was up there his last Saturday and there was more snow on the trail that this. you guys got primo conditions

[@TheLoamWolf]

Timing is everything! Ha ha got lucky

[@davidc6032]

Take the left next time, fun stuff in there.

[@TheLoamWolf]

Did that last week during our eMTB Shootout! It was rad.

[@johnglynn7795]

Enjoyed the video. Look forward to the Zen trail in March. What bikes and suspension travel were you riding?

[@TheLoamWolf]

I was on a Fezzari Delano Peak but Norm was on the longer travel Fezz La Sal with a coil spring.

[@LEGENDofBEANY]

Hey dude! I’m here now… did you say that other trail was ‘fasty fast’?

[@TheLoamWolf]

Yep!

[@LEGENDofBEANY]

@@TheLoamWolf tight! Wish me luck! 😁

[@SummitBidTech]

I need to know how you did the follow from in front video.

[@TheLoamWolf]

I rode the bike backwards so my chest was pointed at him. 😂😂 jk jk. Turn the chesty around backwards so the camera is on your back and angle it down.

[@Picklesismyhero]

Cracker Barrel country boy breakfast has unlimited hash brown casserole. You’re welcome.

[@TheLoamWolf]

Nice!!!

[@mtxbraking]

Bummer you did not take the hard left toward the end. You had a lot left and missed another great section of trail.

[@TheLoamWolf]

We just went last week and had a good time in there.

[@mtxbraking]

@@TheLoamWolf the only bad thing about Zen is that its only 6.5 miles long; 'glad you had a good time.

[@jaw3457]

I live here and you mentioned "Fasty fast," a trail I haven't heard of can you share a trail location?

[@TheLoamWolf]

Bear claw Poppy area

[@shandongubler9733]

You missed the whole bottom quarter of the trail when you said "what's that way?"

[@ioannisparaskevopoulos1120]

[@kameron80]

It’s the Fezzari Delano Peak

Still don't know?

Where’s the grotto?

[@TheLoamWolf]

I still don't know? haha

[@HankVanOrden]

Lol. You skipped the best part of that trail.

[@andrewdecker627]

What part is that? Is it at 9:38 when he asked “what’s that way?”

[@HankVanOrden]

@@andrewdecker627 Yeah. There is a great technically section that puts you down into the wash.

[@andrewdecker627]

@@HankVanOrden haha I’ve always gotten lost near the end but I love that part!

[@TheLoamWolf]

We were back in St George last week and explored the left side. definitely cool!

[@freshseeker]

Looks like a lot of flat terrain and climbs...

[@TheLoamWolf]

It's certainly not steep, in the traditional sense. there are some short steep pitches, but not overall DH-steep. BUT, we learned that in the desert, where mostly Mesa trails exist, there's not a ton of steep terrain, and there's always lots of pedaling.

[@zephyruzzen8976]

I hope any good souls there to give away some cheap bike to be use in the Philippines I hope to receive thanks 🙏😊😊😊

[@Charles-tj8ol]

You asking for someone to send a free bike to you in the Philippines?
