[@theziggyg]

[@bestdayevermtb2]

You were riding well that day.

[@MTB_Trekker]

What a phenomenal place to ride! Proper floats my boat that type of riding, thanks for the upload Lance!

[@bestdayevermtb2]

I love riding there. Keen to spend more time there in the future

[@MTB_Trekker]

@@bestdayevermtb2 I'll look forward to the vids then 😂

[@jenniferhayto4341]

yeww well done Lance, looked like a good day!

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Alexander is one of my favourite places to ride.

[@Mybody4life]

Wonderful riding.

[@sarahcopeland9369]

Rock hard bro

[@maverick2242]

Good ride boys, you certainly got your puka on fer sure, she’s like moon riding in CO, Did you ride the “Poop track” no dab allowed, been riding there since the 80s dirtbikes to MTB, never an e bike though, steely is real hard tail 29er, 150mm up front, that’s how Southern men old school roll, just got to commit it to the line, behind the clock all the way up to the Manorburn dam along the Manuherikia River right up the back round Theethee hill, there’s trails for days in them there hills, they have eyes too, so never go solo 😂 ya have to do Leaning rock to Northburn Stn and some good ole Clyde DH. 🤘

[@bestdayevermtb2]

We pretty much rode what was in the video. Very keen to explore area much more in future.

[@grantmckinnon2300]

B E A UTIFUL! Thanks Lance, this is some amazing tracks!

[@ocbyn]

Another cracking video Lance. Must have been tricky to stop you talking!!! Love seeing all you boys together.

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Certainly some of the more challenging riding I have done for awhile.

[@matangistation]

That deserves another 10k subscribers! Well done conquering another best day ever.

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Certainly was a great day.

[@miketodd2036]

Great ride. A bit intense

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Not exactly a chilled ride.😂

[@calebslipper5961]

thanks for the video! have wondered what that place was like.

[@ToddNZMTB]

Very engaging trails! 😮

[@jeremyharris4415]

Wow Lance and the rest of the boys what a sick trail and very scary those rocks would not be fun coming off on them. You certainly would have to keep your eyes glued to the trail but there is a wonderful view on top of that mountain. All ways looking forward to seeing the next episode Lance

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Epic scenery, trails, weather and company. Can't complain.

[@mikehickman7434]

My favourite place to ride in NZ. Awesome trails! The stoke you guys had for that last steep trail took me right back to a boys trip I did down there about 10 years ago. What a rush! Mint video Lance.

[@bestdayevermtb2]

You are not wrong. Fun place to ride.

[@motorsport32cw]

That looked amazing lance i love that technical stuff really makes ya on the edge haha.

[@doctorpc4x4]

Just about get a nose bleed just looking at these tracks

[@bwdown]

Some of the best tech riding you’ve posted. Brilliant day out and how good is that scenery. Can you ebike to the top rather than shuttle? Adding it to the list of must see spots.

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Yes you could ride up. I would like to take a caravan around south Island and stay in Alex for awhile with the e bike.

[@kurtcarlos2696]

How did you bring your battery over? Did you rent one or shipped it out? Keen to know coz I ride an EMBT as well. Awesome video mate!

[@bestdayevermtb2]

I got my bike shop to ship the battery to another shop and picked it up there. It was not expensive. I put the bike with no wheels in one box and the wheels and my clothes in another.

[@kurtcarlos2696]

@@bestdayevermtb2 awesome! That will be a really good tactic if I want to bring my bike elsewhere. Thank you so much!

[@darrylhausman-pk8cq]

At first glance it could be mistaken for a USA desert-like venue . Very dry and rocky

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Very different to riding in the North Island that is for sure.

[@IGLJM]

Is there any fast flow trails at this park or are they all insane tech trails?

[@bestdayevermtb2]

There are easier trails I believe but did not do them. Not sure about flow trails.

[@BigMal76]

That was hard work just concentrating on the lines on the video, eyeballs must of been wide open on some of those decents.

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Brilliant riding. Certainly need to pay attention. 😊

[@dannewitt1312]

Hey mate, do you have any problems with the 25 kmph speed limit on the ebikes. For example..... the run-up before a jump. etc

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Well it is 32km/hr in NZ but yes I still hate it and do have issues at times.

[@dannewitt1312]

@@bestdayevermtb2 thanks for the reply. here in Belgium, the limit is 25. I just bought myself a KTM Kapoho 7973 and last week I had this problem. The best option for 25kmph limit is to install a speed chip

[@bestdayevermtb2]

@dannewitt1312 I think that will improve the bike no end. Have ridden derestricted bikes and they are so much nicer to ride.

[@MrSupermugen]

what gopro setup are you using?

[@bestdayevermtb2]

Gopro 11 attached to chin of helmet.
