I Love KT. It's rated for family fun, not DH bike park rantings. New England MTB Association has a huge festival there every June. To bad you missed Black Bear and Stormin Norman up in east haven those my favorite 2 mile runs. 😁🤙🏽 Nice work yuka.

[@crappypatty]

I think trails like this are needed! Perfect place to learn and pratice! Those jumps looked very good!

[@VanGirlYuka]

The jump trail was super fun! You need those trails in Phoenix 😆

[@Maltais]

I love that place ! Nice to see a video with the refreshed Kitchel! My favorite Trail at KT is Moose Deuce! KT has thé best set up with the large Trail network, the flow, the village and the Tiki Bar for sure.

[@VanGirlYuka]

We didn't ride those! We must go back 💪 thanks for the tip 😊

[@shanti3152]

Gorgeous trail with the red leaves! That was a fun ride. Thank you !!

[@VanGirlYuka]

This is a sweet spot, Shanti 😊 it's very different from Vancouver 🍁

[@mountaintime4276]

Spent two days there. Loved it. Great trail network. Great places to eat and drink. Stayed in East Burke. No car (or van) needed for the time I was there.

[@rutlandcitybikes9729]

Would enjoy hosting you and Eric in my Airbnb "BedsnBikes" in Rutland Vermont!! That has a cool bike shop connected to it!! Along with being surrounded by miles of awesome bike trails! Only 1 mile from Rutland's Pine Hill Park, 15 miles Killington Ski area's K1 gondola and 15 miles to the Slate Valley trails!! I love the N East Kingdom trails. But the trails here are def more techy and scary!! Especially Killington!! The Beast of the East!! Always enjoy the videos you put up for all of us to see!! Thanks!!

[@Projectnortheast]

What most people dont realize is that there is tons of awesome stuff on the outskirts of KT... not just the Darling hill stuff

[@JimCockerham]

Nice ride, thanks for sharing!

[@downeastmtb8091]

Weird. I'm 90% sure I was already subscribed to your channel but just 're-subscribed'. Hoping to get over to KT next summer with the fam. We're over in Maine. Looks fun even if it's not Whistler.

[@VanGirlYuka]

Thank you for resubscribed 😂 there are so many great trails on the east coast even though it's not in Whistler! We're kinda surprised 👍

[@thinkdrinks384]

Nice and flowy looks like a great time :-)

[@rascal1234]

I go every year to NEMBA Fest. I like coronary bypass the best. You could go on a trek to Moose Alley, which is plenty gnarly. There are technical sections, you just have to know were to go. That place is so big. The tip is, the more you go, the more you find sections you will like. Since KT is not a contiguous trail system, it is difficult to find what you are looking for. Having a guide might help, or just stay there a week or so.

[@VanGirlYuka]

I'd love to come back and try more trails there 😁 I know I'll love it more ❤️

[@stevencruz4937]

Yuka your poop talk reminds me so much of my daughter . Even this morning she asked "dad are you pooping? Was it a lot or a little "...

[@threeohm]

Well was it? Don't leave us hanging like that. ;-)

[@stevencruz4937]

@@threeohm more than a little less than normal 🤣

[@VanGirlYuka]

@Steven Cruz your daughter is super sweet! She is gonna be a great MTB ride one day 😂 next time you should tell her the poop shape too👍

[@stevencruz4937]

@@VanGirlYuka thanks you very much :) i will let her to ask for shape when ready. I can talk about her all day, she loves mounting and that is the reason I got hooked. but one story you migh like, this past August she stopped everything, said loudly "Prepare yourselves, I have to fart!” oh the joys of 7.

[@randyhale4181]

You are never boring.😎👍🏻

[@VanGirlYuka]

Thanks 😆

[@trbsu]

Kingdom is great! I think you nailed it - it’s a good place for more relaxed riding and just having fun. Short downs and short climbs mean you can ride all day. Next time go check out Moose Alley, East Haven, and Victory Hill areas for a little more spice.

[@stevencruz4937]

Thanks. I looking for a more gentle family ride on east coast for the summer

[@VanGirlYuka]

Sounds great!

[@VanGirlYuka]

@Steven Cruz this is great place for a family trip 👍 I hope you enjoy picnic there too😘

[@sakdapukuka9621]

Beautiful view.

[@BeanBikes]

Place is really cool. Next time you guys go if you get there at agood point in the season moose alley is a lot of fun.

[@manchester777]

I don't know about the trails, but the scenery there looks awesome!!

[@VanGirlYuka]

They have a big MTB community there 😁 great trails and great people ❤️

[@srdhmtb7584]

Looks like a good place to relax n' ride😍💯🚴‍♂️

[@Pimbalete]

i need any trail here in chile! youre videos are great!! thanks and keep ridding!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@GoodTrails]

I'm sure you guys are back out west by now - but you should check out my most recent video. New Hampshire has some of the "spicest" rocks in the east! Great video!

[@MTBZenMaster]

Yeah Eric would like No Co. But They are down south already. 🤙🏽

[@VanGirlYuka]

Looks like a great trail and adventure! That's on our list now. Thank you 😆

[@cyclingdiabetic9573]

Still the best channel in the YT-verse.

[@Mr229357]

Nice ride🙂👍🏻👍🏻

[@ronin550]

Looks awesome!!!

[@richr7604]

Always good to have a riding session where you can have fun on flowy trails. Too much tech and spicy stuff all the time can make you not want to ride as much.

[@VanGirlYuka]

I know! We must have fun then I can try some spicy trails sometimes🤔

[@grantfeddema5332]

Looks like a fun place!

[@dwmoreair885]

Yuka you have been to New Zealand? Did you mountain bike there. I live near rotorua in NZ. Its a great country to be in cheers David

[@VanGirlYuka]

Hey David! I lived in Workworth and Te Anau for a year. Lovely county 💙 I met Eric at Milford track and tried MTB for my first time at Rotorua 😁 we want to go back there and ride again!

[@woolfel]

I've been there a few times with my wife. For a road cyclist like me, kingdom trails is challenging and fun. I don't have the skills for a real bike park. The single trail stuff is enough for me.

[@allenkvextreme]

*yes you made me bored... just kidding. good video and awesome place. been there, done that*

[@williamvangorden44]

You know what this looks like it looks like a combination between I'm from Jersey but I ride these trails and they almost similar in the terrain looks like a cross between 6 mile run, and allaire State. The only thing I don't see sand boys would be great if we didn't have that.

[@RobbisTV]

Looked like a fun time :D \m/

[@danielthomson1882]

Where in New Zealand was the horse riding place you worked at?

[@VanGirlYuka]

Horse riding Warkworth🐴

[@johnnylee8194]

Not all ride is like west coast so just enjoy the travel is best attitude :)

[@NotStockPhoto]

You would probably like the trails that where closed better then it’s a little gnarlier on the ski resort side

[@VanGirlYuka]

We'll definitely try next time 👍

[@MTBnorcal88]

Short but sweet 😍

[@RestorationGarageElroyWi]

Any day out is a good day

[@mybadvideos]

Get to Victory Hill when you have a chance!

[@JoshuaLTRyan]

Unfortunately I think the three T's might be gone. Story I heard is that some mtbr's have been rude to the land owners one to many times over the years, which if accurate is horrible. I've only been there once, I had a blast and enjoyed the flow. No idea if Kitchell was effected. I hope not that trail is super fun.

[@Guineson]

i went to KT once for 2 days and most of the trails were blah for me. some trails were more fun than others, but i essentially learned to stay away from the trails with all the hype as they were just flow trails. Once you go off the beaten patch it gets a bit more fun. i will go back as i didn't get to go to Burke Mountain either and heard they have "some of the gnarliest trails you have ever seen" . I would also say the atmosphere is the best part of KT as it's super social and everyone is very friendly.

[@VanGirlYuka]

I also heard that Burke mountain has gnarly trails 🤩 can't wait to go there!

[@jasoncapecod]

the trails are fun but disappointingly short..but the vibe is the best..

[@Projectnortheast]

You need to explore a little more... lots of nice long trails on the outskirts... so long you'll get leg pump guarenteed!

[@user-xe9zc4ng8w]

Trails have been closed here & I can understand why- there are some real jerks on bikes here. People say this place has a great vibe & everyone is so friendly- I didn’t find that to be the case out on the trails I rode

[@TheOLDSKUUL]

Short time after trail 👍

[@razmtb5028]

1st haha good trail and vids

[@VanGirlYuka]

Happy Thanksgiving! Thank you for watching my video and left me the first comment😆

[@razmtb5028]

@@VanGirlYuka Happy Thanksgiving also Yuka!!!

[@williamvangorden44]

But on subject over there have allaire State, there are some bootleg trails that are outand some that people have built privately that they only know about let you ride in that place oh! Bring your phone with because you can get spun around and most like other people including myself have gotten lostand that trail system so bring your cell phone with you just in case and you should always bring it with you 😊 it may seem a little doll at some point but it gets don't let the flat range fool you it does get tactical surprisingly like an Easter egg hunt with a million dollars as a prize and when you find if you are lucky to get back to that same trail again or find it that's why I call that place the Bermuda of allaire here's a little Easter egg hunt for do happen to go there at one point I want you to find the truck it's in the wood and a car they're very old vehicles so and yeah they do stick outbut I definitely would recommend it for those that have not been there yet go with somebody that knows the trail system. That's my recommendation and there's also another system across the street from the parking trailhead and that one goes for Miles as well. Once you get past the parkway I heard there is more trails out there that it has been ridden.

[@mrdrifty6580]

You've only been riding 5 years you rip how long has Erik road?

[@VanGirlYuka]

I would say...9 years? Or maybe more!

[@ChromagMTB]

Rest in peace three Ts... Land owners have revoked permission for mountain biking on the most iconic section of kingdom:(

[@rube814]

What if Black trails were rated black because they were fun?🤔 Fun in a way that were top five of any trail that you rode in the pass. Wy do black trails have to be rated because of the danger of injury

[@nickkautzman9711]

More Fiber

[@barkingmadman1169]

Great! There's nothing wrong with FUN trails! HA! Not all of us are capable of double black, gap jumps, or step ups.

[@VanGirlYuka]

Step by step 👍 start from a green and a small hop❤️

[@Tasteandsee420]

Sad News. The three T’s are closed for the foreseeable future as they were built on private land and the owners have terminated their relationship with Kingdom Trails.

[@mrvwbug4423]

Those definitely look to be on the tamer side. The blues in my local area (southern Wyoming/northern Colorado) are probably spicier than those blacks. Definitely looks like beginner friendly trails though.

[@robindunn568]

OMG - Hysterial Poop Problems! I personally think KT is overrated - if you've traveled, you've been to plenty of other great places.

[@BodieMoto]

she almost crashed like 10 different times in trees and is talking about how easy the trails are the entire time apparently they aren't that easy for you lol

[@dubbreak]

Tap and die? More like nuts and bolts.

[@barefootmtb1338]

There are so many better trails that are hidden from the public I hate how our riding in VT is based of the kingdom trails we have so much more world class riding that phill doesn’t even know about! wish you could have experienced them

[@VanGirlYuka]

OMG that sounds awesome! I know there are reasons people hide trails but it's sad 😪 I wish I could try those world class trails you mentioned one day...
