It's so cool to see all those sights in the old city. I used to travel there a lot, but haven't been there in 15 years. I'm excited because I am heading back in September and can't wait! I hope I get the opportunity to do some riding while I'm there, too!
I would love to go there. Just the amount of history packed in that area is mind boggling. I work with a guy from Saudia Arabia and he said it would be fun to go there with him. I don't fully understand how everything works there, but he mentioned it may be easier for him to get into certain areas of the city if I was with him, with my passport. Plus, it would be safer for me to be with him in other areas. Like I said, I don't know much about the logistics of it all, just that I would like to see all the sites with my own eyes.
4 thousand miles of fertile land strech from the arctic south. These fertile lands end up turning into deserts closer to the sahara and Arabia. Jerusalem sits right at the end of the 4 thousand mile strech of fertile lands. Literally on one side of jerusalem are forests and on the other side is the drop to the dead sea and the judean desert. That is what's so cool about israel. You can find snow capped mountains, forests, rolling hills and green valleys, mediterranean coast and the red sea coast, sandy deserts, mountainous deserts... and all in a country the size of new jersey.
Israel is an interesting place. The area is misunderstood by the typical westerner. It is absolutely worth a long visit. Tours are great. People are great.
@@bode0153 you can krep saying it for years, it will never be palestine. It was and will be Israel for jewish and christians. People can live together in Israel if they choose peace, but in palestine there will be etnic cleanse as you always says israel “doing”
Thanks for the fantastic content. I'm an Israeli and for some reason I've been focusing on mountain biking in the north of the country. After watching that, I'll definitly will pay much more attention to the south. Thanx again! Hope you'll come back some day to cover the rest of the country.
We should have mined some copper to make a limited edition Trail 1 components package! Copper cranks, stem, and valve caps! darn...we'll have to go back :)
8:00 most people out there are on enduro ebikes here in Spain. I ride my S.Enduro all winter with ebikes and enduro racers. There is a huge trend and I think most enduro bikes would be mostly for people racing only in a few years. In USA,many rides are close loops and trails are longer,not just pieces of downhill between fire roads, maybe that´s why it is being a little slow the adoption of ebikes there and so much hate. I love my Enduro and doing hard laps,no motor no battery is the way to me. Go to the Alps to enjoy some bike park time,it is epic!
Hey man im happy to see that you visit our lovely Israel . Next time ask Tal to take you to the trail "Park Ayalon" Canada single . Very interested in your impression about this trail.
Has anyone ever done a mash-up of Brian's endless, halfhearted ha-has, hoo-hoos, whoa-Os, and the like? It'd make a great loop for enhanced interrogations or morning alarm clocks.
LOL! I enjoy watching some of these videos from time to time. When I do, I have to either use headphones or alone, cause my wife cannot stand listening to him for the same reason.
Love the bike design ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L and functionality. It is hard to align the front tired to center the disk brakes. The brake wheel touches the stationery side of the brake caliper and pad. I aired the tire up to 40 psi as the markings say 40-60psi. Left the house for a few hours and came back to an exploded innertube.All in all it seems to be a good bike. Have not ridden it yet though so that's the max of my knowledge. Update, put a new innertube made sure the tire was set properly and it did the same thing in under 20 minutes as second pic shows.
Are you still sporting the 7 IDP Sam Hill knee pads? Looked like in your last trip you may have switched up to the 7 IDP Project knee pads...is that the case? which do you prefer?
Newbie question here! For the types of rides/trails like in this video, would you guys say that tubeless tires are a must-go? They seem to be significantly more expensive and require more maintenance than traditional tires with tubes, and I'm on a somewhat tight budget looking to purchase my first mountain bike, but everybody I've talked to at shops recommend them quite passionately.
Yeah, most of us ride with tubeless tire setups at tubes are a lot less rugged for hardcore riding. You can get away with running tubes for quite a while but you'll probably get more flats.
@@bkxc Really appreciate your two cents my good sir, as well as the quick response! I think for the sake of my budget I’ll settle with tubes, but as my skills progress and I tackle more technical trails I’ll look to upgrade to tubeless.
Are you riding an eBike? I keep hearing a whining noise coming from your bike....as the weather warms, I hope to see you back at your Mountain Place Everstoke!
@16:50 Last time I've heard someone say their but was feeling good but needed to get 'calloused up' was the Folsom Street Fair (Brian will know what I'm talking about being from the Bay Area).
Amed this was always Israel and also there wasn’t a palastinian movement before our county’s independence from the British mandate not an imaginary palastini one. Also there is a truth that almost all arabs neglect to mention. Which is that Arabs here have more freedom and feel more protected living in Israel then in the rest of the Arab country’s like Sudan and such. Btw there is a war going down there between themselves
To my understanding, there has actually never been a nation/country called Palestine. After the Jews revolted against the Romans in this area (don't remember the year, but it was B.C. time), the Romans renamed the area Palestine as an insult to the Jews. It was just a territory of the Roman Empire, something like, 1K years before the Islamic religion existed. Jewish temple (Temple Mount), was destroyed.
@@chameleonpogono hey there you are 100% right about this . Plus the modern “Palestinians” Are just Arab proxy’s managed by the various terror organizations outside Israel. We Jews were here long before the supposed Palestinian Territory . They really just want to kick us out of here, They claim that they live under an apartheid rule. Which is blatantly false. Arabs here are the free-est they have even been, Muslim women can go outside without covering their hair like the rest of woman under Arab authority. Our economy is way stronger and more stable then our close Arab neighbors. One last thing that bothers me is that the Palestinian delegation to the UN (which doesn’t represent any country) gets to have their own special Holliday called the “nakba” (in simple Hebrew to english translation. ) which represents the worst “nightmare” day for the which is exactly the day our country declared its independence. How is that allowed to happen on the global stage ?
imagine i i say i was in donbas city in russia wha the ukrainan people gonna feel i stole their land the same thing you did to palestine people i was fan for your chanel but
Imagine if I say someone should (probably, just probably) learn something about international boarders in terms of the international law prior to making a faulty comparison.
@@yuval__lili when russia invaded ukrain they shoot missile to russia the same thing hamas did when the israeli regime invaded palestin they shot back same thing in ukrain situation
What a cool environment. While I live in the southwest, this seems like a special case of absolutely no water and just rock :) Thanks for sharing!
I’m glad you didn’t have to dodge any missles!!!😂
The landscape there is nothing short of amazing
It's a wasteland, compared to peru it's meh. No place remarkable same stuff over and over again. Just sand and rocks plus the trails are boring
so glad you're back to doing these international trips.
That is a great amount of smiles per miles. Super fun looking trail.
Hi Brain love the videos and glad you came שמחים שבאת ותודה :)👍
Landmark/Life changing vids out of Israel. That's why you are my go-to Dude!😊
If I were to imagine riding a trail on Mars that's what it would look like. Maximum flow!

Israel is an interesting place. The area is misunderstood by the typical westerner. It is absolutely worth a long visit. Tours are great. People are great.
Is it really? In the comment section people are obsessed about the name israel/palestine. That alone tells you something.
palestine

@@wonderwatch2239 even me i will accept the state of donbass an i don't care about ukrain
Looks amazing
Very cool video. Fun to see places like this. Never would have thought of mountain biking in Israel, looks like a neat trip!
fantastic trail, very interesting for sure.
Dude I leave an hour drive from your location and I never knew it's a awesome place to ride
Amazing ride
Great Video - will be my next ride!
So good view
Thanks for the fantastic content.
I'm an Israeli and for some reason I've been focusing on mountain biking in the north of the country.
After watching that, I'll definitly will pay much more attention to the south.
Thanx again! Hope you'll come back some day to cover the rest of the country.

This is Pretty cool! What GP settings do you use? I assume you use a lens/filter?
Honestly should have just titled the video "Mountain biking ON MARS!" to get the clickbait, yet its pretty true anyway
In the Trek or Specilized series…what’s the best all around full suspension bike? Thank you in advance.
"Can't be riding in the Rain..."
Say what now??
Outside of that nonsense - great video!
Come back again and ride in the rain (try Kibbutz Ha-Zore'a)
are you running the new sram transmission. If so how are you liking it vs AXS ?
Are you still sporting the 7 IDP Sam Hill knee pads? Looked like in your last trip you may have switched up to the 7 IDP Project knee pads...is that the case? which do you prefer?
What where you planing in the north? Misgav and the carmel?
THAT'S MY DREAM BIKE SAD TO SAY IT'S JUST A DREAM 🥲
What gimbal are you using?
@bkxc is there any way I can talk to you regarding trail 1 handle bars?
you should go mtb in the Himalayas!

In the israeli desert you have to have tubeless otherwise you will 100 percent flat

I'm guessing the whining noise is the rear hub. Noise stops when he pedals. I "think" he is riding a Ripmo?
How do you organize these trips?
cool 💖👌
Would you mind dropping the name and/or link to the trail? ..
