Vancouver Island’s most unique trail?

[@OGMTB]

That trail is all business. Makes me want to go to VI.

[@alexwebb6789]

That trail is absolutely insane!

[@chancelloramos5635]

Yo that trail looks like so much fun!🙌🏽

[@deantennantmtb]

It’s super cool, I’d suggest adding it in the next time youre up in Nanaimo.

[@thelocalmtnbiker]

Such a unique trail to ride. Nanaimo at its best for technical XC

[@deantennantmtb]

Thanks again buddy!

[@fillfreakin2245]

That's a cool trail. Awesome terrain and trail building.

[@byronthompson8401]

What a beautiful trail. Great job builders!

[@hf5642]

Wow. So much to memorize. I would need to walk it first a few dozen times, then ride it about a hundred times before feeling fully confident from beginning to end.

[@aktamtb2171]

Sick looking trail!

[@lonewolfwolf]

Awesome vid and awesome trail!

[@RyandeMilliano]

Well that is on the bucket list, cheers!

[@kensmith4218]

Nice trail, thanks for sharing

[@MTBwMacc]

Wow how did I not see this video previously talk about some amazing lines, features, and views. And was that a pond that was just chilling on the side of a cliff you mentioned .

[@deantennantmtb]

Haha ya that trail goes through some incredible terrain. Could not have picked a harder place to build a trail really which is why its taken them years to build. Still have not ridden another trail like it

[@seanda2021]

Shredded this trail today, thanks to this video. Such a sweet/insane trial!

[@deantennantmtb]

Awesome to hear! 🤟🏼

[@outlandishmtb]

This looks great! I'm heading there today to ride. Then Burnt Bridge tomorrow!

[@michaellinehan2660]

Nice trail! Whew, you didn't need any more exercise that day!

[@deantennantmtb]

Haha the ideal time for exercise was long BEFORE this ride 😅

[@TechnicalDownhillAdventures]

Oh i gotta get down there and go ride that 😍

[@99MrJ99]

Does the old rockface with the big long downhill log ride beside it still exist at the abyss? or did it get logged? Rode creeper back in 2018 I think, I was pretty gassed from all the ups and downs but very cool!

[@deantennantmtb]

The rock face is still rideable and awesome but the log ride unfortunately rotted away 😕

[@jeremyprovonsil7886]

@DaleStone Get some!

[@Davian45]

I suggested this last year for dale to his. Still waiting for his view

[@augmented2nd666]

I'm smooth brain and have accidentally rode up this one cause the Trailforks App is hard, most of the time I cant tell what direction a trails supposed to be, and most of the time I just kinda wing it and try to hit as many trails in a trailnetwork as possible, I'm often left going uphill on a mainly downhill as my only way back. Most of the tech features on this one probably only work one way, as i remember having to walk alot of it being that I was trying to get up to the abyss from the road you ended on lol. SMOOTH BRAIN GANG.

[@deantennantmtb]

It was hard enough riding this trail in the correct direction!

[@MrBenandbriar]

Extra fun going up, beats the heck out of my crankarms

[@augmented2nd666]

Thanks for not roasting me too hard for my smooth brain guys

[@petedog9581]

This looks demanding and gotta stay dialed and not tired. Early season rides are brutal physically. There is not a trainer in the world that get ya ready for this stuff. Great riding as usual.

[@deantennantmtb]

I was not prepared for how physical and technically challenging this trail was! The hard breathing is evidence 😅, but like you said I’m not sure I would approach it any differently than to just dive in and tackle it. Cheers Pete 🍻

[@petedog9581]

@@deantennantmtb This is a Jeff Lenosky kind of trail. I would like to see him ride some in the PNW, maybe with you??? btw any human would be breathing hard on that one... both aerobic and anaerobic conditioning are taxed w a trials-oriented trail. Going ridin... the weather just broke, Cheers.

[@northwestmountainbikeaddic6874]

Lung capacity check trail! Ooooof

[@snakehips12345]

Al seems like a real jerk to me. Not only did he clean everything on the trail, but he only gave you one break!!! Hahaha. (I've ridden the trail a few times and love it. One of my top 10 trails ever)😊😊

[@deantennantmtb]

Lol! Well Al is the current Strava KOM holder so it was indeed a challenge to keep him in sight especially riding first time 🥵

[@northwestmountainbikeaddic6874]

Such a sick trail, and sounds like someone needs to do some more cardio
