We Took Matt Mountain Biking and His Kids Were Astonished!

[@MattsOffRoadRecovery]

Thank you so much for putting this together and inviting me along. I got admit, it was pretty cool to return home and have my kids brag to their mama about their dad. Let’s do this again sometime!

[@garretteverson8172]

loved seeing such a huge smile on your face😂

[@nickifiedperformance]

sweeet jumps. lol looked fun

[@NoChamoisSammy]

you did great out there, looked like a blast

[@montyfpv2259]

When the kids start bragging, you know you've reached legend status in their eyes. Well done Mat, really enjoyed the collaboration on this one

[@keithbell8960]

Are ypu going to keep riding

[@jaredpursey3791]

Seth being ready to catch Matt when he’s about to fall shows the care factor he has for introducing people to his sport. There’s like 2 foot and 100kg difference but Seth’s right there ready to get crushed in the name of saving someone. Love it!

[@marpheus1]

I just commented something pretty similar about that. Seth was clearly outweighted to catch Matt but somehow was able to and went there anyway. What a nice human being!

[@jaredpursey3791]

@@marpheus1 I think Matt caught a lot of himself tbh, but Seth was there 100% for something to land on.

[@marpheus1]

@@jaredpursey3791 yes, I saw that too. On the slight chance that Matt would fall, he always stood up and got his feet on the ground and his bum out of the seat, to be as independent of the bike and as grounded as possible.

[@TylerM-j1i]

I think they were genuinely worried. Filming would've been done for the day if Matt flipped backwards.

[@f87115]

And that tip toe almost made it to the top is a scary one ,,, if you’ve felt that moment of helplessness ❤ this was awesome , good people connecting

[@montyfpv2259]

As soon as Mat stands up and starts pedalling, you can tell by his body he's a BMX bandit from years ago. I've been watching MORR for years, never once guessed he'd be a demon on the trails with only 2 wheels.

[@nosreuter]

Exactly my two thought as well. Even before he bunny hopped you could tell. Then casually riding over that grate one handed I knew we were in for a tremendous treat!

[@ghensold]

Yep, the body language shows it. Except for a couple moments he looks like he's been riding MTB for years. It was a bit jarring actually, because his physicality on MORR is so different. All thinking carefully and talking / explaining while standing around or driving.

[@topspot4834]

Yup. There's certain things people who did BMX just don't forget. Like I've never wondered how to hit a drop. I've ridden off everything from picnic tables to garage roofs (ended badly) so even though it was 20 years later, there's some things you don't forget!

[@sombrero4316]

@@ghensold it's hilarious because it looks so alien wearing the exact same outfit as always, family guy meets simpsons vibe.

[@branchandfoundry560]

I'd have totally lost this bet! Never in a hundred years would I have guessed Matt has riding skills. Wow, I'm dumbfounded & impressed! I hope this inspires him to get an ebike and get back into riding.

[@gordonnichols8096]

Mad Respect for Matt. Having your kids blown away is awesome.

[@chrisgould9101]

By far the best KZbinr collaboration ever. Just awesome Seth and Matt. Hope to see another collaboration from you guys again. Just seeing the joy on Matts kids faces watching their dad send it was incredible.👍👍👍

[@NoOneIsGoingToSaveYou]

I agree on of his best videos yet.

[@jarenci1]

For the E-Mountain Bikes haters out there, this is a perfect example of the advantage of an E-bike. Matt was able to enjoy the ride with friends and family. Great video

[@Me-0063]

Yup! Also, you might want to correct heaters to haters…

[@jaredreid2661]

[@chrisreap3r599]

Disagree... Ebikes just let you have more fun, you don't have to be out of shape and inexperienced to shred an ebike. Get edumacated because this comment just reinforces the general negative sentiment

[@ian3580]

@@chrisreap3r599 I like his comment....and what they said in the video about how it makes you feel 20 years younger. Even if you are 40 and in good shape, it can make you feel like you're 20... you can ride way longer before exhaustion and like you said - have more fun

Holy crap, Matt is fearless. Don’t think any video can ever show how great/serious that Gooseberry is. Hope he starts riding with his kids!

[@ShreddingPeaksMTB]

I agree

[@DigitalJedi]

I rode Gooseberry last year when I was out south visiting some friends. Beautiful trail and the regulars I met were awesome.

[@mikedesilets3324]

I second that.

[@BlockCylinder]

I watch Matt almost every day and I never would have predicted this level of ability. I've always been impressed with the guy and the whole MORR crew, but now I'm amazed.

[@adventureaheadphoto]

The storyline of Matt’s kids coming along and this being wholesome family content was unexpected and appreciated. Loved it.

[@LoLbeautifulsorrowx]

Im from NC I've watched you for along time. I found MORR about 2 years ago. you both mean so much to me. Ive lost 90 pounds, I want to get a bike... I also started auto body repair classes back in August... Its been a life changer. Im much more happier. I feel so happy seeing this, when I saw you were going to be in the off road games, I almost cried. Im so happy for you and Matt, keep being yall. Thank you.

[@sreyes71687]

Matt is a natural. I love that this will lead to mtb rides with his kids. Thats a win win! Great job Seth.

[@thanasimamais320]

Seth please don't stop making videos of your epic rides and trips. There is something so amazing about seeing you riding in a raw and natural setting that me and many other fans love watching. Your reactions and commententary are very entertaining and your trips are just inspirational.

[@ChrisinOSMS]

Matt totally reciprocated the assignment. You both put faith in each other’s expertise and came out winners! The Off Road Games and this video were a joy to watch.

[@ShreddingPeaksMTB]

Agreed

[@jimkrug2586]

I'm a huge Berm Peak, Eric Porter and MORR fan and I am not exaggerating when I say this is by far one of my favourite YT videos EVER!!! Well done everyone....well done!!! 👍

[@ossieljuarez1936]

This is definitely my favorite video of the year so far. Matt's riding skills was truly impressive. Hope to see him ride morr. Either on your channel or his own.

[@McLovinMods]

He should start a father-son racing team called Matt's off-road racing and use the same MORR name.

[@snowdogs59]

That was great Seth. Matt is such a game guy and it is great to see you both open yourself up to other people’s passion. What fun!

[@McLovinMods]

18:12 This makes me so much more than happy! Absolutely amazing to see the enthusiasm guts and skills Matt has for something he never thought he would be able to do!

[@deadbrother5355]

As a lifelong cyclist and mtn biker for over 20 years; what feels easy to an experienced mtn biker can be overwhelming to a novice. Respect to Matt for accepting the challenge.

Best collab in the history of KZbin. Huge fan of both channels and all I can say is… Matt…YOU ARE THE MAN! This video is absolutely the best example of why the bike world needs to embrace eBikes… endurance may fade but skills will always be there…. And apparently ballz too.. gonna have to get a wheelbarrow for Matt. Haha Thanks to Specialized for making this possible. Now I want to see Matt bring his new bike on a few jobs and ride it when he needs to retrieve something he forgot at the other truck. Haha

This is awesome!! I’m glad the algorithm sent me this, what a cool, fun blessing!! Long-time MORR subscriber so I’m familiar with Matt’s “go-for-it and conquer it with aplomb” attitude, and I am still a bit surprised (and very warmly impressed) by Matt’s riding. I LOVE how awed Kaulin and Karter are by their dad. They won’t forget this, ever. Matt is so one-of-a-kind. Which I knew, but now even more-so.

[@mitchboucher9991]

Been watching Seth and mtbing for over 5 years, and just got into off roading and MORR this past year. Didn’t realize this was the collab I needed. Matt is an absolute sender on the MTB!!!

[@jason.hartson]

This is the exact reason why I don't understand the hate for e-bikes. It allowed someone to get out and enjoy mountain biking who otherwise would have been hesitant, and now they have a tool that allows them to enjoy the hobby while being able to keep up with more experienced riders. This was a great video and you can tell everyone had a great time.

[@raypeery6317]

The haters are getting fewer and fewer. Like Matt I have a mtb bike getting dusty. Too hard to get back in shape at my age to enjoy it. Now I have an e-bike and I can enjoy riding again. My buddy who rides almost every day isn't bored, and I can carry on a conversation while we're grinding. E-bikes are wonderful.

[@gereshare6659]

But your explanation ISN'T the reason most of us traditional riders don't like them. It's because it has allowed WAY to many people to just jump on bikes and terrorize all types of trails, riding way too fast, and getting themselves and others hurt. I would love if it was only helping older riders, but it is turning our trails into chaotic places. Btw, I have ridden and jumped e bikes and they are loads of fun, I just don't want to see great places turn into roller derbies. The mountain bike community has fought hard to keep trails open. I hope they stay open. I think we all benefit from clear lines between motorized and non. I'm fully aware there is no going back. I only hope we don't lose our "bike soul" going forward.

[@raypeery6317]

@@gereshare6659 "roller derby" That's a bunch of hooey. Making up stuff to vilify a group of users is EXACTLY how groups like SUWA operate, and why people have to fight to keep trails open, motorized or not. Stop it.

[@philipperajaofetra1938]

This is insane. Thank you both, Seth and Matt for putting this together; my 2 favorite youtubers.

[@jaybobo]

this is exactly why i love e-bikes, there's so many people out there (me included) who know how to ride a bike from their childhood but don't necessarily have the fitness to encourage them to get out there and do it. it's a new lease on life, if you've got the cash to get an e-mtb then absolutely do it, get out there and get some fresh air and remmeber how much you love it.

[@burrosperdidos]

One of the best videos you've put out in recent memory. As someone who's mountain biked all of my adult life and off-roaded for the last 10 years or so, I think driving a truck off road has greatly improved my mountain biking simply because you have to pick lines for four tires, rather than two. When you get back on two wheels, the line choice seems so much quicker and easier. So I'm not surprised Matt killed it, but I'm also surprised how well Matt killed it.

[@skilledrex294]

I took that same line on the practice trail just one week before you guys rode it and had to back up because I didn’t want to take the drop. I love that trail system! And like Matt, I ride my Orbea Rise 30 EMTB. It makes a ton of difference and I can ride with my son. I hope this opened Matt’s eyes to what’s possible now. I enjoy both his videos and yours. Thanks for this video! I was smiling and laughing through the whole thing. Also, I used to live on the other side of that sketchy mountain side he was showing you back in the 80’s.

I felt the same exact way as Matt on my first e-bike, he did awesome!!! I was into BMX from the early 80's up into about 2005, and then I only went on a few rides up until 2020. My ebike helped me get back in the saddle, and ride with all my younger and better conditioned friends, and it helped my knees because it was too much for a normal bike at first. Now it's been 4 years of riding 1-2 times a week and I feel so much better. I love my Specialized Kenevo!
