No mountain bike ride is complete without refreshment, a quick picnic is ideal before heading back onto North Shore skinnys - difficult to negotiate on a tandem!

Everybody needs friends like these two and the others that make this possible. Awesome video!
You cant imagine how much joy it is to those who know Martyn from the early days, to see him back on a bike. What a nut case, and all round amazing guy. Love Martyn 🤘
You can't keep a nut in it's case too long without it breaking free in a joyous nutty adventure. Here's to Martyn and our joy in watching him do crazy stuff on a bike again.
This makes me so happy. Blake is the perfect co-pilot ! Love the friendship!
The random tandem is my favorite segments on GMBN
I feel like Blake's confidence on the tandem improves every time you guys put up a video about it. Maybe you were just gloing slower this time, but it seens he's getting used to Martyn having the control!
GMBN Store needs a Random Tandem tee-shirt. Martyn could draw he and Blake on the bike. I believe it would sell well.
God bless you Blake...Heart the size of a soccer ball...and Martyn...what a great example and role model to us all for how to get through adversity with humour and a positive attitude. Thank you! 😊
Hoping Mr Ashton is getting better and is back soon, GMBN just isn't the same without you dude
Wut?
@@Leviathandk Take a minute and check out Martyn's instagram etc. You might learn something :)
@@thompsy2k6 thx. im not on insta so i guess i miss alot :p
@@thompsy2k6 adults don't play on Instagram etc. That's for the children
@@Leviathandk I believe he had some health issues connected with his wheelchair which has caused him a lot of pain and discomfort.
My favorite combination of GMBN presenters.
I can only imagine the stress and exhaustion a ride like that puts on you Blake. But seeing the enjoyment and smile on Martyn's face... you are a true hero in my book!
You two together make the best videos!! Your friendship really shines through when you two ride together. Well done!!!
Another truly staggering random tandem ride ! You two are cracking bonkers ! We like it! Well done lads.
No hands, arms out wide.
Like your style Blake.
M.A. as always all smiles, all class.
Thanks guys.
Watching you ride together brings tears of joy to my eyes.
#gmbn the bond Martyn and Blake have is something else it's like an actual brotherly bond they have. As mental as Blake is he seems to keep Martyn under control to an extent because I think if he didn't Martyn would be trying to ET it on the random tandom 😂😂 Martyn always makes me laugh with his typical trials brain of 'oooh that looks fun I'll think of the consequences afterwards' massive massive respect for both of yous.
Been missing Martyn on the Channel. Great to see you guys out getting lost on the Tandem!
We all need a friend like Blake Samson. Bloody legend.
Great video guys.
Hanging out with your mates in the woods....... on the random tandem 😃 what’s not to like 🤟🏻
I deeply admire GMBN, Blake and Martyn. A lesson for everyone.
Absolutely top notch! These "let's just go out into the woods and do some stupid stuff" is my favourite kind of GMBN content.
Great to see Martyn again, hope you heal soon. Love to see the relationship between you two
I'm absolutely loving GMBN and the UA-cam channel is just perfect, the bond between all of the riders is second 2 none
Love the random tandem. These videos always seem to give me perspective when i need it most. Cheers stay stoked.
oh man the skills to navigate lost lake on a LOONG bike. boss mode
It got a bit Titanic when Blake held out his arms 😂
As I can understand even with two pro riders this tandem bike is a real handfull !! Looks like challenge of momentum, finesse and precision!! I had a great time! Tks!😁
Love these vids. There's something super endearing about the utter stress on Blake's face 😅
'That's the most difficult thing I've done... Actually, it was quite a challenge, I enjoyed it!'
simply incredible!!!!!
Congratulations!!!!
that's true friendship!!!! 👌♥️
Absolutely quality content as always lads🤙🏻 very inspirational
Been on Pinocchio's Furniture, and I can't believe that that tandem rig made it down! Lots of gnarly narrows on that trail. Hats off to you both. An inspiration.
Martyn: "We're stuck."
Blake: "Hold my beer."
Your friendship puts a smile on my face. Thanks!
Yesterday: i give up
Now: i pick my mountain bike and stroll!
Your an inspiration guys! Thank you
I love it what you do for your Friend! Big LIKE 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
That grocery shop is great, holds everything!!!
Everyone should have a ZimBlake - does he wear a backpack to keep his wings out of the sun? Time for a Rohloff hub and a belt eh?
He really is one of the best humans.
Good inspiration! I have a little one with CP and I’ve been designing a 3wheel tandem with her low in front. This was great to watch.
'The Random Tandem' needs it's own channel, and more content.
Greasy hands Blake? No worries - that's what black riding shorts are all about!! 👍😁
IMHO, best of the Random Tandem vids as you guys took The Beast out of your comfort zone. As someone occasionally confined to a wheelchair I have to say that Martyn has some huge nuts to do this! You and Martyn are like little kids doing stuff you were told by your parents that you shouldn't. AWESOME!! Being disabled does not mean the end of fun and adventure! 👍😊
No hands ,no hands high five this guy love it .
Another great Martyn and Blake video ,such great buddies having fun.
Blake the machine getting them through those trails and awesome riding from Martyn through those techy tree parts
Great work #GMBN
Ah superb Blake n Martyn are the best, looks like a great day guys. Martyn didn't think I could respect ya any more than I already did. Then I went n seen your food choices on this one. Great stuff bro.
Blake really is a machine and I think that's so inspiring and fun to watch! Thanks guys, you create awesome content!
Love seeing Martyn on the bike what a legend. Blake seems so trusting of his ability to control that beast too
Great duo! I've always wondered how people tandem mountain bike, would be a great series even if he didn't have an injury, awesome series.
The ongoing saga of Martin, the GMBN crew and the Random Tandem is one of the best stories on the intergoogles. Keep 'em coming!
Can’t get enough of these with Blake and Martyn on their kick ass tandem!, please keep these coming!!!
I started watching thinking “well, they won’t be dumb enough to do Pinocchio’s furniture.” I was wrong.
There is "dumb" and then there is "adventure dumb". They went for "adventure dumb" and found the adventure with some dumb on the side. But hay, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
A great adition would be motorcycle ish kickstand that would deploy by the press pf a button, while the rear guy is of the bike, this way no one has to hold the bike up for martin not to crash.
Blake such a good sport very humble
You always get an extra 150watts with Whistler water Blake. Great ride love it!!!!
Great job 🤘 Guessing Leadville should be in Future!! Love the tandem videos
Blake... You are such a good guy, really, keep it up
Best one yet - looked like a really fun day out :)
Love these! Martyn + Blake = Win!
What a wonderful bromance you got going there.
Another beautiful film guys, excellent work all of you. We need more Martyn though, hope that he is back soon. Big love to you all. XXX
Your awesome friendship is the best thing about this video I think.
Fun ride and fun video :)
This needs to be a series. I think the tandem should be converted into an E-Bike with the controls on the front to let Martyn have more control.
That tandem is anything but random!
Blake you are an animal and Martyn you rock!!!!
You both together are the perfect Dreamteam! Always great and funny content, love it!
It's fun to see the Random Tandem in my "back yard". At 4:30 the boys ride by a geocache I hid a few years ago.
I LOVE these Random Tandem segments!! 8D
Love the video! I work for Blue Peter (the CBBC kids programme) and we would love to have Martyn on the show, if you could get in touch that would be amazing! More random tandem adventures...
What a sick tandem ride looks amazing
great seeing a video with Ashton, i know it's an older one but he's a great presenter! all the healing vibes 👍
Best of wishes to Martyn, hoping he gets better soon, GMBN just isn’t the same without him.
Martyn, not sure if you have many over there but the Whole Foods vegan chocolate chip cookies are fantastic.
Blake and Martyn really are a joy to watch, like two dudes you would love to have as riding partners. Good fun and the best attitudes, GMBN really is a great channel.
Tandem épico muy bonito el lugar donde estaban, creo que de los tandem que he visto este es mi favorito, muy divertido y entretenido, muy buen ambiente el que transmiten Mr. Ashton y Blake excelente vídeo!
Random tandem on 🔥 . Really funny and cool
How the hack do you manage to not crash!!??!! Those trails are already tight for regular bike lengths.
Ahh, as I write this, you get stuck on that bloody bridge! Congrats on those skillz 🙌🏽
Epic ride, epic friendship! Keep 'em comin' lads!
Lol, 9:58 "OH NO! WE'RE STUCK! IF ONLY THERE WERE SOMEONE THAT COULD HELP US!"
Camera men: 🎥👁👄👁
What an adventure . This requires more guts than a lot of free rides
I am a big fan of Blake his personality is really cool, he reminds me of Wren Weichman of Corridor Crew. Both talented and nice hoomans.
GMBN.....🤣🤣🤣🤪🤪🤪
You guys have me in stitches, so many characters 👊💪
That true friendship right there..Awsome ride. Love you guys. Hope your feeling better Martin cant wait till your back on GMBN 🤘👍
Totally awesome. It shows what great friends and cycling can do for you. Blake you are truly a legend.
i can't believe you are doing tight trails on the RT. brilliant
oh man that's an adventure
Blake is a real champ. What a blessing for Martyn to have a friend that goes to such lengths and labor to assist him outdoors.
Is the Random Tandem electric assist?
Yep, there's a motor with two big battery packs. GMBN has a playlist of the Random Tandem and one video is a tech walk-through explaining the bike.
Enjoyable video. Looking forward to more Random Tandem.
Another epic tandem video and I've not even watched it yet. Also bring back Martyn. Where's he been?
I'm watching this to see Martyn, get my fix hahaha... Get well soon boss!
Really inspiring video. Love to see Martyn on a bike, where he belongs.
Love your videos gmbn!!
absolutely loved this. very inspiring.
I like how the camera dude just filmed on the skinny instead of helping lol
You guys are legends! 🤙
Hello from the United States!
Yeah it’s Sunday and time for randoom tandem 😁💪
More stuck than lost, but still a brilliant video. The random tandem is my favourite content keep it up lads
Can't wait to see these two doing the Cape Epic.
Another great video - things were getting a bit mild and dreamy there at lunch and I was wondering if you were going to bring on the unicorns or something, hitting the gnarly stuff afterwards sure brought back the inspiration that only Martyn knows how to initiate. You guys sure are testing the limits of the Random Tandem. I wonder how far you will be able to go on RT-2. :)
Blake getting Martyn some V cookies was cute.
Cool upload dudes! Martyn: “Blake, I’ve decided, for our next Random Tandem adventure - an Everest ride!” “Blake? Where’re you running off to?” (An Everest ride: climbing the total equivalent number of feet as Everest in one riding session.)
Such an awesome bike!
Man, that is just the coolest fuckin' bike. Blows my mind every time i see it.
Love the look on Blakes face in the thumbnail lol
Love the vids guys, your the bike version of the chuckle brothers
“Why you wobbling?” 😂
