The KeystoneMTB channel features local Pennsylvania mountain biking, along with some traveling and other fun content. My trail dog, Kozmo, and I will be gathering riding footage to get viewers familiar with the trail systems we ride. There will be lots of mountain biking, building, shredding with friends, cool trail knowledge, and of course shenanigans. We want to show what mountain biking is all about!

Riding the Rock Lobster
I threw together this short edit of one of my favorite local trails, Rock Lobster. It has been a long while since I had the GoPro out, so Dragos and I (and Kozmo) decided to do some self-filming. Felt good to knock the dust off of the camera and hoping to do some more filming in the future. I would have loved to use the B-52 song, but copyrights and what have you. Enjoy!

Thriller - Hathaway Trail System | Tannersville, NY
Переглядів 3792 роки тому
Thriller is a machine built flow trail at Hathaway Trail System in Tannersville, New York. We spent a weekend in the Catskills and rode here as well as Round Top. Hathaway has four bike specific trails in its system and each is fun and unique. Thriller was my favorite as I do not get to ride machine built very often. I could spend all day working on my skills on a thrilling trail like this. Hat...
Riding & Camping in Wharton State Forest | Penn Branch Trail - Batsto, NJ
Переглядів 2,4 тис.3 роки тому
We headed down to Batsto, New Jersey to do some mountain biking and spend the night in Wharton State Forest. We rode the Penn Branch Trail which is a loop, about 20 miles in distance, with very little elevation change. A fun XC ride consisting of 95% singletrack weaving though the sand and pines. We both had a great time enjoying the unique Pine Barrens landscape, with the biggest challenge bei...

My girlfriend and I flew out to Arizona and stayed three days in Sedona. Our first trip here, we quickly found this place to be an oasis for any outdoor enthusiast, and no doubt a mecca for mountain biking. We rented a Yeti SB130LR and a Specialized Stumpjumper from Absolute Bikes. We had enough time to hit a large variety of trails including Tea Cup, Grand Central, Canyon of Fools, The Hogs, P...

Riding Canyon of Fools Trail on a Yeti SB130 Lunch Ride rental. A very fun, unique trail through a beautiful red dirt wash. Rated difficult but in reality more of an intermediate trail to be enjoyed by almost any rider.
Backyard Trail Builds - Log Skinny Shreddin'
Переглядів 3093 роки тому
After we had a few trees cut down back in our backyard this past March, I had this idea to build a log skinny out of one. Flash forward to December and we got the chainsaw out to start shaping and building. Three days of work paid off when we got to session our new feature. I love trail and building and shreddin' with friends, it doesn't get much better than this!
Markham Park Mountain Bike Trails - Sunrise, Florida

On a trip down to Florida in January, I decided to fly the mountain bike south to check out what the Sunshine State's mountain bike trails are all about. I was able to squeeze in two days of riding while we were there. First day of riding consisted of Balm Boyette and Alafia River State Park. The second day we drove east across Florida to Sunrise, just outside Fort Lauderdale to ride Markham Pa...

We make it to Alafia River State Park! The park was closed the morning we drove up, so we ride Balm Boyette in Part 1. The afternoon was filled with many of Alafia's technical features. We made the most of the time we had and got to shred trails such as North Creek, Rabbit Ears, Moonscape, and Gravitron! We were stoked to be able to ride two parks in one day and got an awesome taste of Lithia, ...

Set out to hit Alafia State Park, we found out that it was closed. So we take a quick detour down the road to take a spin around Balm Boyette Scrub Preserve. We rode around 14 miles of awesome XC singletrack. Fun flowy Florida trails through old phosphate mines and scrub habitats. Ridgeline is a fun, one of a kind trail. First time here, Balm Boyette was an awesome surprise and has a great trai...

Mt. Penn Mountain Biking Bowl Run

Quick clip of a run through the Bowl at Mt. Penn.
Is this rideable on a gravel bike? I have a hardtail but my dad has a gravel bike
I do not ride gravel bike so I'm not the best person to answer. That being said the terrain is not technical but dry conditions will lead to soft sand. Bikes with wider tires will probably have a better time riding those trails. Try it out and let us know how it goes!
@@keystonemtb9925 thanks! Doesn’t look super rooty . Headed to cape may for family vacation and trying to sneak off to do some mtb! Lol
Nice job blazing them trails on Neversink 👍👍🇺🇸
Hermoso iré mañana vivo en miami
The State of NJ really needs to step up it's wildlife management practices. That area around 6:15 is centralized within state land, and already has characteristics of habitat suitable to Bobwhite Quail. Bobwhite have recently been reintroduced by the Audubon Society in conjunction with private lands around Speedwell, Tall Timbers, and Pine Creek Forestry, on similar lands. Bobwhite was common in NJ until fire suppression and exclusion led to it's extinction in NJ by the 1990s. For some of these areas, all that is required is increased prescribed fire and growing season fire to open up the canopy and reduce the shrub layer, and re-introduction of the birds.
Do you have a map of the trails? The woods are our backyard and was always wondering about a map?? I hike back there alot.
Nothing on maps but have fun, plenty to explore!
Is it as tight as it looks in this video most of the way through or are these mostly some of the more "interesting" parts of the trail. I think I would have a hard time splitting trees like that constantly.
There are a good handful of tight sections in the Wharton loop. Being South Jersey doesn't have a lot of elevation it sort of adds an extra "feature" on the trail. In dirt biking, Jersey is known for its tight sections sometimes refered to as stick farms. I enjoy the different terrain coming from Pennsylvania.
@@keystonemtb9925 cool, thank you for the reply. I will have to work on my agility (I'm a big guy, working on losing weight).
Mountain biking is a great sport for that reason and many more!@@nubbinzawyer
Cool!
Thanks!
why tf does south florida have better trails than south caolina? where theres natural hills.... I rode markham for years and just moved to SC, it frankly dissapointing. Looking forward to micng back to SF!!!
busted my ass here today
Ill be ridding these for my first time soon, and i guarantee you that i will buat my ass as well... 😅
See many hard tails here or is a full suspension necessary?
I would say that a hardtail would be fine here or really anywhere in Florida. I personally prefer a full suspension for the drops and technical bits, though I have ridden my hardtail at chunkier places than this.
@@keystonemtb9925 Thanks for taking the time to reply. I have a Surly Krampus with a suspension fork on the front. I love the bike and am hoping it would get the job done down there. I bought a place in Venice and see some really fun looking stuff in Carlton Mabry Reserve, but imagine it would be fun to check out some of the other stuff around the state. I imagine the majority of my riding would be double track and single track stuff and me just randomly putting around. Glad to know that a full suspension won't be absolutely necessary.
@@jakenoack6702 my buddy has a Surly Krampus and he rides that thing on all kinds of terrain. Great bike!
@@keystonemtb9925 Sweet. Sounds like I better keep the Krampus in my fleet. Can't wait to check out all the cool riding Florida has to offer. Really itching to do the Florida Coast to Coast Trail.
DUDE I WANTED TO GO HERE FOR MY BIRTHDAY NOW MY MOM WONT LET ME DUDE WHY WHIULD YOU SAY SOMEONE DIED ON IT!!!!!!!
That's the story I was told! Hope you are able to ride here!
Neversink = My Main Squeeze. Nice presentaion.
Thanks it is a beautiful mountain!
I ride to markham every day Just to ride it's so close to my house
You chose a good spot to live, these are some of my favorite FL trails!
How much was to rent a bike ?
They had different prices for different builds. I believe we paid somewhere between $60 and $90. Have fun!
@@keystonemtb9925 thanks also if you can answer this , It is true you have to sing a waiver or watch a video to ride on this trail?
@@gipsyduran19 nope just go ride!
@@keystonemtb9925 thanks for being si helpful!
Hey Man This joe from Arkie outdoors I was there in November for thanksgiving west palm beach with Family this last year 2021 I'll be coming back this year I would love to hook up with you and ride.I just subscribed to you'r Channel .good stuff.
I was visiting family in south FL when I filmed this. If you are ever up in PA, shoot me a message, love to show you around our trails up here! Thanks for the support.
Found u
Awesome video buddy 🤩🤘🔥
Thanks for the feedback, can't wait to go back here to ride Thriller.
while laughing* “broke his fricken neck and died, that’s insane”
Almost unbelievable, but sh*t happens! Goes to show that we all need to ride safe and respect the trails.
We were out for about 4 or 5 hours, but it obviously varies on your pace and how many stops you take. Plan to be out for several hours as the trails gets fairly remote, at the farthest point on the Penn Branch loop, riders are about 10 miles from the parking lot. I recommend bringing tools, tubes, snacks, and plenty of water. I highly recommend you ride this!
How long does it take? I'm planning to hit it.
Alafia is certainly quieter!
Hearing all the guns go off helps keep us riders sharp!
Mint!
Thanks!
“A 70 year old man died here… that’s sick!!!”
That is what I was told!
U got skills bro I need to practice more I see
Thanks, Markham Park is an awesome place to ride. It has a little bit of everything.
Love the Catskill area, nice edit Kory
Thanks for the support TrailSage. First time riding up in the Catskills, definitely plan on going back.
@@keystonemtb9925 I always enjoy your content brotha, happy to provide the eyeballs and feedback.
Nice edit Kory. Batsto is my go to when the weather isn't cooperating, especially in the winter, that places drains so well. Love the log pop at 3:00. I heard the little trigger bugs get bad in Wharton during the summer, did either of you have any trouble with them camping? Love all the history and environmental tidbits through out the video.
Thanks TrailSage! It was fun riding there last month, and the bugs were out in full boom. I pulled at least 20 deer ticks off me between riding and camping in about 24 hours. To be relative, I am outside a lot in PA and find less than 10 ticks on me a year. So yes, be prepared for the green head flies and ticks if going out in July. All the blueberries were ripe for the picking so give and take! Either way I would say its probably worth visiting at any point throughout the season.
Fantastic edit!
Your small tidbits of info are great 👍
Thanks Steve!
Very nice 🤘
Thanks ✌️
@@keystonemtb9925 anytime man
beautiful place would like to hear more but your music is drowning out your voice. sorry
Thanks! And yes I far from a qualified editor but am getting better. I have been giving more attention to those kind of details in some of my later videos. Thanks for watching!
My local FL trails at Markham brought me here- nice preserve, trails and edit! And love the dog!
Thanks for watching! Neversink is an awesome place and that my dog, Kozmo, and I enjoy very much.
Wait, your dog, but he follow6ed the other rider? 😆
@@VisualSOLUTIONSMedia Yes that is my dog Kozmo and he pals along with the entire group on any given ride.
Great looking trails, but I think I'd pack a gun.
I have never felt the need here but that's the great thing about America....carry on!
Stumbled across this video randomly, I really enjoyed it. Gonna look forward to watching more of your stuff!
Thanks for the positive feedback! Looking forward to putting out more videos in the near future.
How is pinkbike compared to tombstone? I've hit tomb drop and double but not pink yet
I'd say pink bike is at least another 6 ft high and a bit further out.
Is this last year?
Man that kicker at the end over that rock gap scares the shit out of me! Nice job man! Can't wait for opening weekend! Season pass on lock this year!
Yes September 2020
@@DjGodfather420 Pinkbike scares me a lot more than the lilly pad feature! That's awesome about season pass, love to get back again this year.
Nice job!! You looked comfortable to me. Just a freak spill but a great follow up!!
Honda R, thanks! And nice trike.
How you brushed that crash off and then went for it was amazing. I would have taken that as an omen and said forget it, lol.
Trailsage, That was going through my head but glad I decided to take the leap!
@@keystonemtb9925 So glad you did. Super impressive brotha!
Killed it bra
Thanks Steve!
In 4 years of riding I've seen one pair of unicyclists at Lake Nockamixon - I thought those guys were pretty badass, I couldn't even begin to imagine riding Sedona on one wheel.
Badass for sure! I passed a group of at least 10 on unicycle riders who seemed to enjoy the high exposure. Awesome people there!
Where's that alafaya trail you mentioned ?
Alafia is a state park in Lithia, Florida with some awesome riding!
And gators lol
That's quite the program for 3 days! Good choice and mix of trails I think, and you're right there's so much to choose from.
3 days was great but also a teaser. Can't wait to get back for more!
@@keystonemtb9925 Truth. Sedona takes months to fully explore.
@@BlackBikes I hope to make enough time one day to explore all of Sedona's best trails
I keep wondering who are these people travelling for fun in a pandemic.
Okay doomer... I'll continue to live life how I please. If you don't like what you see, move along.
Very nice trail! ride safe...
thanks bro!
Another great edit brotha. AZ looks like so much fun. These trails still look so technical with the GoPro which means they must be insane in real life. Also Unicycles! Seriously? So impressive!
Thanks man! Sedona is an amazing place with something for everyone, especially mountain bikers. Yes some of these trails have highly technical sections and can have steep consequences at points. We will definitely be going back for more!
hears gun shots riding through the woods *vietnam flashbacks starts kicking in* 😳🤯🤣
I started pedaling faster!
Yeewh! Send it! Gnarly ride 🔝👊🏻
The trails in Sedona are so fun!
@@keystonemtb9925 for sure, we don’t have those kind of trails on the east coast
Man did you pick the right time to head out to AZ. Trails look flowy delicious. Meanwhile back in pa.... wamp wamp.
Sedona was incredible. I'd like to go back every winter!
Nice build bro! ride safe. done sub...
Thanks! Just as fun to build as it is to ride!

I need to come check this out. Need some trails to explore for a day. Gotta break in the new wheels
Awesome place, cannot wait for the snow to melt!
Had no idea lived in this area.Gonna get a mountain bike.
Good stuff there, enjoy!
I've lived 15 minutes away from Markham for several years but this week I finally bought a mountain bike! I'll let you know what hospital room they put me in.
Something for everyone there! Enjoy your new bike!
