Manley Gap indeed, Clint. It was even tough on my ebike - hats off to you and Dawson for riding it on regular bikes!
Hey Clint, curious how you rode this. Did you go up Stanley Gap, do Flat Creek as a loop then back down Stanley? I'm up here now and planning to ride it soon, so any help you can provide would be appreciated.
Yeah, for that one I think we started at the dirt road and went up to flat creek, did a loop and then back down to where we started.
@@ClintGibbs Thanks Clint - looking forward to it.
When was this footage recorded?
Saturday
@@ClintGibbs funny, what month?
@@ANDRES112581 Saturday as in 3 days ago... November 13
@@ClintGibbs thanks
Did you go up and back on Stanley Gap?
I go from one parking lot up, down to the other parking lot, turn around and then go back. I usually start on the Blue ridge side. Then I do flat Creek after that. Sometimes go to Green Mountain and do that trail.
I rode this trail with my father. . . We both didn't "make it:" the whole way up. That bomb into Aska was SOOOOOOOOOO worth it, though. . . .
I really like POV Trail biking, please keep it up!! Really cool video
Looks a lot like North Carolina
I appreciate your videos. So light hearted and fun to watch!
That is very cool to be able to ride with your son!
Fall is a glorious time to ride.
Yeah dude. Great raw videos!
Is this ride doable without a suspension bike? Assuming you're riding full sus? Got an old school mtb with no suspension. I'm a big fan of the master artist as well :)
Yes. You'll need to take it slower on the rockier sections and be deliberate about your line, but definitely doable.
All the hype about going to Mars and beyond yet we got it all on this planet. Great forest.
Speak for yourself....I wanna mountain bike on Mars.
I live in the north Atlanta area and I love your videos from the last three days in North Georgia.
👍
Doesn't get much better than appl mtns in the fall. Great video!
Clint, great video with your son. Does the enduro bike have better traction b/c of the wider, knobbier tires, or b/c it’s heavier?
Wider tires and more suspension travel. Also the slacker angles make it more stable when conditions get a bit sketchy.
What is the best trail in Georgia?
This one is near the top. I would say Pinhoti 1, 2 and 3
@@ClintGibbs What would be your top five trails then?
@@JulianoGSF Pretty much all the ones we hit on this trip, to include blankets creek which I'll upload that video next week. The ones we didn't film were Bear Creek and Pinhoti 1, 2 and 3
I would like to check out FATS, heard good things about it.
Nice, Clint! One of my all-time favorite N. GA trails. It looks as fun as ever.
This is a wonderful place to live.
Beautiful trail clint..ill have to take a ride over there
Sharing an interest you are passionate about with your child is awesome. And for your son to have one on one time with his father on this MTB adventure will be memories he'll cherish for a lifetime. Good stuff!
Helmets off to The Artist, indeed! Great seeing you have fun with your son out on the trails!!
That was awsome indeed... Beautiful landscape...😀👍🚲🌲🍁
Great video.....If you make it up to Chattanooga, Tennessee you should check out Enterprise South Nature Park; great trails, really well maintained and easy to find right off of I-75 next to the Volkswagen vehicle plant.
Yep, I've ridden there before. Fun trail.
Wow that is so awesome great video 👍😊🙏🚵♀️
Awesome video man! The fall foliage was at peak. Im sure the Bear creek and P1 ride was sweet as well.
that is so awesome and just hours away. So great to see some great stuff so close.
Keep these videos with your boy coming brother! Continues to inspire me to keep getting out there with my 10yo. Such a great time.
What speeds are you getting to? Way to fast for me. I guess my brain doesn't take it in that quickly.
Fritz Kocher looks faster on here
is this with built in stabilization ? or gimble?
Built-in stabilization of the Hero 8
That is pretty good.
My goodness! I was wincing the whole time!! George if the jungle, watch out for that........ tree! Cool video! GB , Z
Stunning. Fabulous colors! I hope i'll get to enjoy a similar days this week.
Jesus Christ is the "artist" !!! Great vid man👍😎

I think the award went to God.
Amazing how better a 29er is at stabilizing itself, compared to a 26, when you have a slip, slide or knock your bars. Feels like the rotational weight just about rights the bike by itself. Looks like your guardian angel was floating just ahead of you gong down flat creek.
This bike is super stable as a 29er but the Geo makes it very maneuverable. Super impressed with this bike.
I have a 2014 Transition Bandit 29er. They do make great bikes. We usually take 100mm travel bikes up there. Better climbing but some of the downhill chunk is too much for them.
Very pretty! Squirrels very active around those parts this time of year. Amazing how much they rattle me, darting around the trail. You get a little more warm up before hitting the massive, steep climbs, if you park at the northern trailhead.
