  • Today, we review Highland Mountain Bike Park in New Hampshire, a very unique facility which ONLY serves mountain bikers. With a ton of downhill trails, a jump park, and an indoor training facility, Highland certainly has a leg up on the competition. As usual, we'll rate the park in ten categories and add them up for a final score.

    I just gotta say it's great to see some subjective scores being applied appropriately. Reviews of more or less any product often lose meaning to me on the internet and it's so difficult to filter through bias and sponsorship based reviews for a nice detailed and balanced breakdown of something. 1-10 with 5 actually being treated as average means more to me than I could ever explain.

    Thanks for the review. Highland appears to be the very exact type of place I'm thinking would be a huge benefit to my community. My only trouble is that there isn't a place that I've found (so far) that's big enough to have all of the bike trails I'd like to incorporate. But Highland appears to be a good model for the park I envision. One day I hope to have one in my community here in southern Arizona.
    I am enjoying these park reviews so far. Keep up the good work!

Fall foliage, white snow, green trees, and blue lakes. It’s also cool to see people like you who live here as well on the internet because it’s such a small state.

    Please make more of these videos seth I love these bike park rating videos. I realize it will be hard now as winter is coming and most bike parks are closing. I'd also like if you just rated trails too, such as asheville alongside bike parks.

    Great stuff Seth. Just discovered your vid's. love'em. Your analysis and rating system are well thought out. There are a lot of people on UA-cam "reviewing" things (they are REALLY just "trying" to review things & gain views) --- from bourbon whiskey to ski's. Much of it is poorly thought out, poorly displayed in the vid, or their communication skills (in one way or another) are not up to snuff. Your video's incorporate none of these issues. Well done!
