Very nice!
I can’t click the link….
Just rode this today for the first time. Absolutely incredible.
Can’t wait to get back out there! Glad you loved it!
Watched this video a few times already, thank you for creating and sharing!
You’re welcome and thank you for watching!! Where you from?
nice riding! great scenery!
Thanks! I just wish the technical issues Would have left us alone, and we had gotten an hour worth of what we saw with our eyes! Have you ridden the 401?
@@affordabletrailsolutions No i have not
Definitely put CB on your list!! We should have a bike park video from there on here at some point!
It’s CR 108
What paved rode are you climbing up in beginning of video? Thanks- Eddy
I dig that hat dude!🤙🏼
Thanks man!
Just found your channel. Great videos and riding. If you don’t mind me asking where are y’all from. I live in south Georgia and y’all sound like you have a southern accent also. Pedal safe
Hey Gary, you pinned us😂😂. We are from Center Ridge Arkansas and Woolverton Mtn to be exact. Glad your here, hope you enjoy and if you ever get up this way, give us shout and we can show you around!
Thank you. I will
😎
🤙
Nice video, and perfect timing! We're headed to Moab next week and Mag 7 is on our list to ride. Thanks for posting!
That’s AWSOME!! Glad you got some value out of it! Not sure what else is on the list but, our crew loved to new Raptor Route also.
Awesome drone work Jeff!
Thank you Donny!
Wow that's cool
so fun!
SayIIIINg
Way to go bro! You’re putting out some great stuff!
Thanks man!
hi,Affordable. very super ! ))
Beautiful man, thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching. We will have several more drone videos coming soon. I’m hurt and couldn’t ride this trip….. hints the all drone videos 😂😂😂
Thanks for the video. Some folks recommend walking 10 feet away then standing next to a second tree and then looking back. Once you like the degrees, then you will put another flag up at a second (eye level) tree and continue on. Hiking Trails should be 2-8% grade. 10% tops.
That works also! The reason we try to as far as possible is, it gives you a longer line on grade. Then you can do the final alignment and know your average grade is on. Just remember if you have a maximum grade, make your average grade 3% less than your maximum !
And thank you! Glad you got some value from it! Thanks for watching!
Ouch! Is your bike ok?
Yeah, it’s will prolly be fine, I haven’t looked at it since I loaded it up though 🤦🏻♂️
Hope your bike is good . That was a stellar ride !
Stanchions are scratched up, that’s about it.
That’s rough dude, tight spot for sure!
Yeah for sure! Definitely humbled 🤦🏻♂️
This was such a good video! She had me crackin up with all that talkin lol.
She definitely likes to talk, although I did cut out everything but her talking. There’s a little difference in the original and the edit… but not much 😂😂😂
Your gonna have to get closer to the water so we can see where those crappie are piled up at 😜
I mean, for $25 , we can talk about a scouting mission !!!
Looks awesome. Thanks for sharing man!
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Her Poppie loves to hear her talk. That means I dont have to say a thing!!!
Ha! This is edited but, sometimes she does talk this much 😂😂
Looks amazing!
Thanks!!
Yes sir!!! Not sure this is a new thing, surly someone else is doing it this way but, we do it because of necessity , we have a small team! Works great and there is only one person to blame😂😂. I do see where 2 people could be beneficial.
What clinometer are you using?
Here you go….. cspforestry.com/products/haglof-c-i-clinometer-15-102-1012?currency=USD&variant=41418540908737&Google%20Shopping&gclid=Cj0KCQiA14WdBhD8ARIsANao07jMqn8QVrYabzDn6YmIP33ZrFoqWqwZNKWQH7cE8pVzrM-dK3Hw930aApNpEALw_wcB
Nice video. NMTA have always used a clinometer with two people, one as a reference point and the other to look thru the clinometer to take a reading. I never thought about using flagging tape as the fixed reference point! That would allow one person to measure grades and lay out the trail without any help. Great idea!
Adding this one to the list.
It was definitely worth the ride up the road. I would go up on trail again like we didn’t min the previous video.
Yeah buddy, nice trail and great ride. Have a nice week and ride on🤙
You too man!!
Wow, awesome buddy🙌
Thanks man!!!
So gorgeous
Can you talk about your bike a bit? is it an emtb?
That's the type of relaxed riding I like at my age. Where would you say is your favorite location for this type of riding?
Lots of places come to mind…. Where are you located? Dead Horse Point State Park in Moab( we have 2 recent videos from there , check them out ) Dino Flow at The Klondike Trail system in Moab. Lots of trails here in Arkansas like this without the big mountains though. We are working on one. Ow in central Arkansas that sound like it would be your jam! If you want to contact us by phone and get all of our opinions, we would be happy to chat!
@@affordabletrailsolutions thanks man! im in FL but plan to do some fishing in Arkansas next yea so maybe ill check it out!
Definitely bring you bike with you and give us a shout! I’m assuming you’re coming for the trout? Where you headed?
@@affordabletrailsolutions yea we enjoy fly fishing. We are thinking about hitting the White River and the Little Red Rivers. Are you familiar?
Oh yeah! I’m about 40 away from the Little Red and 1.5-2 from the White. Do skip out on the Norfork either!
Beautiful! If you're a mountain biker and don't want to go here after seeing this video, then you ain't right. It's been on my list for a while but it needs to get ratcheted up the list a notch or two. Really great video ATS.
It needs to go to the top, and pair it with the 401 which we didn’t have the time for this time but, will be back for it in the summer of 2023 😜. Thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed the content!
Wow, what a tour through this fantastic nature. Great shots and a great video🙌
Thanks! This place is so magical. We are going back this summer and hope to get several days of riding in! Now account for the GoPro effect , and imagine how the eye actually saw it, it was breathtaking.
💪🏼
🤛🏻
💪🏼
!
This makes me want to go back and ride!
We go every year, also going in April!
Great video! Watching, helped us decide to begin our day on this trail tomorrow. Question: are you guys using some kind of communication device to talk to each other while riding? Seems like we could hear her just as loud as you when she was riding up ahead of you. Thanks!!
That's awesome! Glad it helped you guys! Great question, we use a Rode Go Wireless 2 for this. Its has 2 wireless mic and receiver that connects to the GOPRO. We really like it and it tends to make POV video a tad less boring !
This looks super fun. I can’t wait to check it out with my kiddos!!❤
You will grin from ear to ear the whole time !
Beautiful countryside, nice video!
Yes sir it is! Thanks!
👍🏼
Thanks
💪🏼💪🏼
Thanks!
Subscribed 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Thanks man!!!
I’m getting sea sick just watching this ride. He is riding pretty fast and puffing. Sure is pretty back in there. Great job, Daryl.
Awesome job Darryl👍, thanks for caring about your community and the biking community
Sweet!!
Thanks!
Nice! I reckon we’ve got to go check out the Syllamo trails now. Those techy rock sections looked pretty fun actually. Appreciate the videos guys!
Y'all need to! There are other trails there that are like that rocky section in this video., Its a winter time trail though, speaking of that, be watching for a fall date for a trail party up there. Will be a great time to ride it all also!
A great video and a fantastic trail. You rode beautifully and cool shots. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work. Ride on and have a great Sunday🤙
Thanks, will do!
