The Craziest Ways To Use A Mountain Bike! | Dirt Shed Show 498

[@sailingevanescence]

I am the proud winner of this week's 'hack'. The back story is that we live full-time on board a sailing catamaran and spend lots of time on anchor. My husband, Andy, engineered this solution to enable us to transport our bikes from our boat to shore. It works like a dream and enables us to go from Sail to Trail! Thanks GMBN! 😊

Sounds like you guys are living an awesome life, congratulations I hope one day I can do something similar, enjoy it and have fun

Rumour has it Martin Ashton can wheelie a Unicycle !

[@PhilHarrisTV]

Not for long though!

[@01FozzyS]

Moving up in the world with video quality! Well done!

50fps got the Dirt Shed Show lookin like one of those TV demos at the shops

You guys using new cameras? Video looks well slick

[@zobilamouche420]

Looks like they upped the framerate to 50fps, hence why it feels smooth as butter 😁

#captioncontest Blake trying to think of a caption for last weeks show. Couldn’t think of anything.

[@chibani_gl]

I had goosebumps when both of you were singing "Hacks and Bodges" with all your heart. It seemed you had the pride and faith of those kids door-to-door caroling for Christmas 😆

#captioncontest when you’re a unicyclist and Martin says, “unicyclling is pointless”

[@lukejacobs6420]

Caption contest… the face you give when you get no caption for the previous week

[@feedbackzaloop]

Onewheel riding is E-unicycling. Cycling in the mountains is MTB-ing. Hence, monowheel on the trails is true to MTB

[@dickiesmithmtb1602]

#captioncontest. Your choices are for Megavalanche: Martyn and the random tandem, full suspension BMX or a Brompton!

[@johnsonjae]

So I have a back pocket passion for Muni (Mountain Unicycle), and I have some experience riding a unicycle both on road and trail. I have mad respect for the guys like Terry Peterson (Unigeezer) that take unicycles on climbs and trails that I would struggle with on two wheels. You have to realize, there are no gears, no hubs, no breaks. The pedals/cranks are attached to the wheel in a 1:1 relationship. If you stop pedaling, the unicycle stops; if you pedal too fast, you go backwards. There is no riding out a drop or jump, you have to hit the ground pedaling the wheel the same speed as you and the unicycle. I would love be able to ride some major Bike park trails on a 32" Unicycle or 29" Muni, but know I will probably never have the time to practice to get to that point.

[@williammorellato3176]

Absolutely love it, just joined the Membership and couldn’t be happier to support you, been watching since the end of 2016 and absolutely love your videos, and hope to meet you all one day 🙂

[@gmbn]

Awesome to hear! Thanks so much for joining... we really appreciate it

[@richardpayne5176]

That’s rad thanks dude 🎉👊

[@TomScottmtb]

The sno go is absolutely sick

[@RichieShoo]

I haven’t ridden “One” yet, but them single wheel dudes fly by me on my EMTB all the time. I think it’s just yet another compelling, cool, compact way to travel. Just remember to always be respectful.🤙

[@KDog2264]

I liked mower like Rich. Also, I like the snow bike. They have really evolved over the last 4 yrs and are a lot of fun.

[@oc1rob]

Last time I was at Cwm Carn earlier this summer there must have been best part of 20 one-wheeler getting ready to ride toward the end of the day!!

[@eXaviar]

i used to ride a mountain unicycle thanks to my wife :D and i LOVE the lawn mower !!! AWESOME. I need to lear welding :D

[@max-eb9vi]

A compilation of Martin's best riding clips would make a great vid. I think the youngsters don't know how much of a G he actually is

[@jackvvv]

Caption: staring at the misses just wanting to be on your bike.

[@dksmith605]

I built some adapters to mount skateboard trucks on a BMX. Skatebike is a pretty fun thing to show up with at the skatepark 😅

[@jeffhayes1855]

Since you brought up unicycles. I say look up moto trials champion Pat Smage riding his unicycle around his training ground while driving his RC car over the same obstacles.

[@goliathhickman]

Bike surfing... I used to do this in the 80s on a road bike with no helmet. Kids these days slap a name on it and think they invented something new!

[@martynashtonGMBN]

Haha that’s brilliant

[@the_spanner_ch7mp]

Ah FFS I had a great caption for last week's Caption contest and forgot to post it 🤦 It was 'Steve's reaction as he realised there was a jump ahead of him! ' Great show Martyn and Rich Sorry Martyn but all those 1 wheeled contraptions are NOT mountain biking 😜

[@junka1975]

Is it a weird use of a mountain bike when Martyn scares everyone on the random tandem? Short answer, nope, that's just awesome. 😜👍

[@iainhill8738]

#CAPTIONCONTEST Blakes view on the both the lake and of captions and Martins attempts to try and get unicycles into GMBN were unprintable but clear to see.

[@plainuser48596]

These one wheel things a menace to the MTB communities - I mean actual local communities. They do not help with trail building, they do not respect trail center rules, generally not very friendly blokes and riding these things actually actively ruins trails increasing maintenance load massively. The only worse things are these electric motorcycles that pretend to be e-mtbs but ain't

#caption contest - Call that a caption contest entry? Next!

[@1111stunna1111]

Rich was hating on the one wheel because he knows he can’t do that, but the one wheel was awesome

[@Metal-Possum]

...the actual problem is cars. They've been responsible for most negative influences on our urban areas, including urban sprawl and inefficient use of space.

[@evan5167]

I’m with Rich. That one wheel thing is not a bike. It doesn’t even have pedals for you to use. It’s more like the one wheel equivalent of motocross than mountainbiking

I commented with a caption snd even used the hashing.. wtf lol

#captioncontest can't tell if this is the expression for "When the wife is explaining why you can't buy a new bike" or "When the doctor suggests maybe it's to slow down and start acting your age". Also lies about last week's caption. There was 1.
