All about trails in and around San Antonio Texas. Learning and experiencing the mtb life in my 50s.
First Crash at Spider Mountain!
We've been to SM lots of times and this is my first crash. Thankfully no injuries and more importantly, the bike is good! Tired body leads to sloppy riding....

Fun ride out with a few friends that are just getting into the sport. Showing them the cool features of the LCG trails from Fox to 1604 and down to Bamberger. Had a great time!

First ride on my new Propain Hugene! Bought this frame on an awesome sale Propain was having. It even came with a Pike 140mm fork. I upgraded to a RS Super Deluxe Ultimate so I had some dialing in to do. I'll post review of the bike on my next video!

Dano finally getting to dial in the Bold! Plus our buddy Edgar's first ride out at Fox on his Diamondback. Fun easy ride. Hit a new drop section on Log Roll.

Back out at Spider! Definitly need another battery. I was only able to record a few runs in the morning. But this video includes the Dano Cam, Dano's new Insta360. Still tweaking it but pretty sweet video!

Badass man. I need to get up there once my skills improve.
Looks like a Bamburger blue trail or the trail undeneath Parkwoord. I look forward riding it.
Yep. It’s technical but not to hard. 👍🏻
Where do you guys usually launch from at Mac?
Typically Optimist Pavilion (Pavilion 3). Start there take a left onto the blue loop and go around MAC counter clockwise
@@eztrailinglife8074 thanks. We were all over the place last and this weekend. Tons of things to do and see
I'm having a bike porn moment. I see the Propain, Polygon, and Kona. But what's the 4th bike -- the one with the Ohlins fork? Please provide specs.
Thinking about building up a Hugene 2
Sweet! You’ll love it!
@ I actually did build the frame up four days ago. Need a few more rides to dial-in the shock.
I was there today, watched your vid now wanna go back. Seems I missed some features.
Same here bro. I’m gonna ride for 30 mins to 1 hr. Next thing you know 3 hrs later
womp womp... that choice of steed. Dano has "taste". propain crew represent, fooh!
Yeah! It was because of his Spindrift that I bought my Hugene. Really cool bikes!
Waaaa yeaaaaa aaaaa hhhahahaaa! Love it
Looks fun as hell! Can’t wait to go
Definitely worth the drive!
Those jumps look a lot bigger in person
Might have to check this trail out
I want one
Does your Super Deluxe Ultimate have hydraulic bottom out (HBO)?
It does but it’s fixed on the SADU. Check out SRAM website: www.sram.com/en/rockshox/rockshox-technology/hydraulic-bottom-out I have the Vivid and it has adjustable HBO. Both are pretty awesome shocks
Good looking bike.
Thanks!
I just ordered my Hugene 2 weeks ago. What are you general impressions of the bike? I was hesitant to drop as much money as I did on something I couldn't ride first, so I'm curious to think what others think. It's also not a common bike in my area... In fact, there aren't ANY in my area.
My buddy has the Spindrift and he loves it! He’s a bike nerd so he did tons of research on it. Apparently Propain bikes have one of the best pedaling platforms out there because of their linkage set up. I rode his SD a few times and yeah it’s awesome bike. He told me I wouldn’t be disappointed with the Hugene. It won trail bike of the year a few years ago. 22-23 I think. I want to ride it a few more times before I do a review on it but my initial thoughts are that I’m really gonna like it. I was talking to my buddy after our ride and I told him it kinda gave me the feel of a smaller bike. I loved my 27.5 bikes because of their nimble feeling. That’s kind of what I felt with the Hugene. Fast, nimble and playful in the air. I bought the frame and fork and put my own parts on it. Let me know when you get your bike and what you think! I’ll have review video in a few weeks. 👊🏼
@@eztrailinglife8074 It also scored really good in this years MTB-News trailbike test and got "best value". That said - I dont care much about tests... I absolutely love mine! Between my higher travel E-Bike, my Gravel and my commuter bike, this one would absolutely be my choice if I could only keep one.
@@eztrailinglife8074 if I get a chance to ride it before the snow sets in, I'll let you know what I think! I look forward to your review.
Did you sell her yet?
I did! Sold quick!
@ that’s awesome
Just getting back into it after a long while. Killed my diamond back on a mini jump. Dusted off and repaired my GT
Nice. Was just there on Sunday. Haven't done Parkwood. Still building up the nerve.
Cool! There’s some small stuff up there. Even just riding it down without the jumps is fun. 👍🏻😎
Good job man keep up the good work you just earned a subscriber
Appreciate that, man! 😎
Since you're selling the DB, what is your other bike?
I recommend after Log Roll and coming up the other end, make left, cross the paved trail (the bridge will be to your left), and follow the trail. Look for a trail on your left just as soon as you cross the paved trail. It goes into another Log Roll-like trail. Starts pretty steep and fast.
Have you ever gone down the drop right before entering Log Roll? At 1:59, you tried to go up a drop. But the drop I'm talking about is between the one you attempted to ride up and where Log Roll begins. It's wide. I don't know how else to explain it. Either way, I finally did it -- I rolled down it. Was scary at first, but in my mind I like to play these mental games. In this case, I pretended Jason Vorhees was chasing me through the trails and so get away from him, I had to go down this drop. ha ha. I know... I'm cheesy.
I think I know what you’re taking about. I’ll check it out next time and post the video. 😎
Maybe we can get Jason to chase you
How to I get to this location?
