So many complain about the weather and how they can’t ride in it. I’ll ride in any weather. Cold and wet or a bunch of snow at 10 below. It’s in the mindset. I ride for fun and to keep my mental health in check. Stay positive and keep smiling no matter what the weather or life throws at you
It’s not being a bit cold and wet that’s the problem it’s the constant bike maintenance and coming home with your clothes and bike covered in shit every single time you go out. If you ride a few times a week it gets old fast.
@ I get that. We now have snow here so we’ve got the fat bikes out now. Yesterday was a wet sloppy ride. By the time your done cleaning the bike shower and change, it’s like 40 minutes extra after you get done riding. I still do it but I can understand the extra work and maintenance on the bike being a reason not to
Dude, it's REALLY easy to have an awesome time even on bad conditions, the singular most enjoyable trail ride i've had was from one day when i couldn't sleep, and at 7 AM mid rain i gave up and began prepping to go ride. I simply rode to the trail and despite being alone it was awesome. Ever since then i look for chances to ride in adverse conditions for fun
I ride in any weather, but I will admit, I really don't like riding on leaves because they obscure rocks and roots, and they're slick. I do a lot of braking around corners when there are leaves on the ground.
really cold weather is easy and way more comfortable to bike in, just wear the appropriate gear that's not too hot and not way too under dressed and you are good. dry crunchy snow is sticky and provides great traction on pavement as long as it's not super deep. slush is the worst stuff to bike in though, it's like the worst mud but also ice.
Well i have been out in the winter and had the rain hit me that water was flowing out of my boots and the cold really did kick in. I could not open the door handle turn the key to open as my hands had been that wet and cold.
I live and ride in rural, southern central France and summers are getting hotter and drier. My summer riding time is reducing. I’m 64 and have only one kidney making hydration more important. I look forward to late autumn, winter and early spring. It’s my prime time riding. One tip: I use a dry finish lubricant all year round. But you may want to think of one for winter.
Great advice. The one extra item I use is something I made out of soft shell fabric that resembles a lobster bib - it really helps keep my chest warm on the downhills without overheating my core on my climbs. Yesterday’s ride was probably my last of the season as I’m lucky enough to live next to a ski hill that opens this week. Time to transition to a different downhill thrill 🏂
We ride every Wednesday night and some of our best rides have been when the weather has been truly grim. Our local pub is super bike friendly even when we are super wet and muddy which is why we always end the ride with a pint by the fire!
Unfortunately, when it gets wet where I live, riding on dirt is not an option. Doing so, just means more work from our trail work volunteers repairing the damage. But when(if) we have frozen ground or snow pack, then we get to come out and play in the winter. You all should do a video about riding in winter where conditions are a bit (lot) colder.
You just gotta get out there. Even if it sucks at first. Every ride I've started that I really did not want to do, I was happy as a dog rolling in shit after an hour.
If your regular winter temperatures hover at 0 Celsius and below, a hardtail is a must, air suspension hates the cold, not to mention mud and snow is hard on linkages. Ideally a Hardtail with a decent coil fork is perfect, and luckily a RS 35 silver coil shock is relatively cheap and comes on alot of entry level hardtails. Save your Air suspension for warmer weather.
I use a heated Tactical Jacket when the weather is bad It works great. Pro tip, Wax your frame ( carefully) less will stick to it and washing will be quick and easy.
I ride my Fat Bike & Plus Bike in the winter time & give my full suspension a break & get back on that in the spring. If it above 25 degrees, I ride all year round
Full-length fenders on MTB seem to be a taboo, but ever since fitting a pair on my trail bike they've been amazing. Not getting soaked in dirt means more riding and more fun. No real downsides other than a few hundred grams in weight.
One the hardest thing with normal mtb is controlling temperature. If i am on ebike i normally don't focus too much on what i'm wearing as long as its warm. Normal bike I always end up to hot more than to cold! Gillets are my staple with a fox polar top.
Usually have a few layers with waterproof outer weathers that interchangeable in uk, definitely winter gloves or hands will freeze 🧤🥶 usually stick to either regular trail parks or places that don’t turn into big swamp in winter, great episode thanks for sharing gmbn! 😁🤙
The trails near me are closed when muddy, which is most of the winter. I do like riding when they're frozen solid, though. Other than that, I ride street and work on skills .
Recently went for a rainy day ride, a couple of takeaways for me were: Pack a Rain/spray jacket, and make sure it does keep water off your clothes. Wear proper riding pants, anything else gets soaked in water Properly scout out the trails before riding, I had a massive puddle after a jump and I got completely soaked. And finally, wear eye protection. It is important with mud to not get it in your eyes and if you wear goggles makes sure that you have some sort of fog protection on them
After having the wrong mindset I was convinced by a Champion to love the mud and rain. Nothing is more psychologically empowering in a race than looking into the faces of 90% of your competitors and see the dread loathing and fear they have for the cold wet and muddy conditions. Make atrocious conditions your best friend, love them. There is nothing more devastating to the enemy than them seeing you smile under the mud and grit. You know what compensates you for worn components, Podium goodies. Even if you not a racer, the sisyphus effect also has huge advantages for when the weather gets better, everything is so much easier.
Where I live the temperature is currently around zero celsius with a constant drizzle. In a couple of weeks the sun will set at 4pm. Around December it usually starts snowing and municipality pours a mixture of sand and salt on roads and side walks to keep them from forming a layer of ice. Cycling through winter will be a challenge.
It's been in the negatives here -2 or -3c 23-24f with snow, I'll ride through the snow, but not on the trails, super muddy and slippery, ends up caked in the hard to clean bits on the bike. Plus not riding the wet trails means they are easier to maintain
Winter is when I really hone my bike control skills. I ride Detroit Michigan winters on the roads (where I could) and sidewalks on my mountain bike using Continental Race King tires, and needless to say it was an experience and a half. They of course don't have bigger knobs, so the grip wasn't there at all. I'm wondering how well my Maxxis Aggressor and (when it arrives) Minion DHF will do.
I don't care how breathable they say waterproof jackets are. When you work hard they all turn into bin bags. Just get a cheap one that keeps the wind out. Merino jumper is great as a base layer as they are not itchy and keep you warm when you get wet from the sweat (you should be generating) I have a light fleecy trek top with a windproof panel on the front that I've had for about 30 years now, that goes in between the jacket and the jumper. I can ride in anything with that gear, was out on Saturday when we had the 'windy day' here in UK. Storm Darragh or something like that lol. As for cold days, you feel fine after 10 minutes. Just get on with it!
I don't ride when it's below 50F or raining as I hate the cold and our trails get destroyed if ridden wet. Luckily I live in central Texas so it's rare there is a day I can't ride since it rarely rains for more than a day or two at a time and hardly ever snows. January high temps are usually in the mid 60s. I know a lot of folks hate the summer heat but I still ride after work when it's 100+ in August. Just need to drink a ton of water. I was up in Duluth, Minnesota(beautiful place!) riding Spirit Mountain last August and they were having a "major heat wave" at 75 degrees. I went out riding at 2pm and everyone else was leaving the trails saying it was too hot to ride. Of course those folks ride in weather where I would freeze instantly and die so it's all about what you're acclimated to.
really like how MTBers dress. I like to use similar clothes, sporty but not necessarily lycra and stuff, whether I use my MTB, my hybrid fitness bike or a road bike. Btw, flat pedals are fine, gotta agree on that
Where I live, that clothing advice is suitable only for first autumn months. Shame that cycling clothing brands don’t really cover those harsh winter weather in terms of bib tights. All of them are good for temperature aroud 0 Celcius but that’s about it.
I’ve had for more than a few years, a wind blocker pull over vest undergarment. It’s got a “Gortex” front with a cotton/poly body. Also what I finally got commuting by bike, look at what the cyclocross people are wearing. I finally figured out that in 2 miles you are just getting warmed up. And that’s all I had to ride to the train and off, the same 2 miles to work. 14 years later the new job was 5 1/2 from the train. You could not dress for a 2 mile ride. You would be a sweaty, clammy cold mess. PS What the heck is with you guys that refuse to use a back fender. I don’t care how waterproof I am, I don’t need to be splashed up the backside to my neck in grime. The road shit is even worse.
…and I totally forgot about e-bikes. My only ride in 3 years. If you feel ok a few blocks in, you’re fine. Just saying, it’s much easier to dress for an e-bike.
Instead of expensive winter riding shoes, use a slightly larger shoe that will accommodate a slightly thicker wool sock and covered with gortex socks. And chose a show with leather uppers and little or no venting.
For f%$k’s sake. I always were gloves. Your first line of protection. You are falling, you put your hands out. And I hate cold hands riding ! Cheap insulated gloves, not too thick are fine, at least for the time being.
It's hard to ride in rain and snow where I am because the second you hit a wet trail you just sink an inch into super sticky mud, and it just becomes a painfully slippery slog with a long bike cleaning after
Where you ride is so important, it's worth looking to see if there are any other trails even slightly further out, the mud could be completely different! 🤘
Man, I would love to have one of the bikes that you guys have if only I could afford one, I love biking, but I wish I could go on more trails that I can’t do on my current situation, I just dropped quite a bit of savings on a fox float X2 and got scammed, as a 14-year-old I don’t think I can make enough money to replace it
make sure you prelubed your bike the night before clean your bike after you are done and then relube once you it's dry. just be sure to not really care so much about being wet because no matter how well protected you might think you are, you are still gonna be soaked. the only important part is really staying warm and staying comfortable(even while wet), everything else is gravy.
So wht length fender are u showing and wonder if they make one for the manitou mastadon suspension fork tht are on my Norco Bigfoot 1 and which pink mid layer jersey are u showing and is it available in your store??
Hi 👋 The fender/mudguard you can see in the video is the RRP Proguard which we don't sell in our store. We no longer sell the pink jersey but this one is made from the same material so will be great for keeping you warm on those cold days! 👉 gmbn.eu/MidJersey
Winter riding has always been a double edged sword. Sure, proper clothing is key but its also important to understand that its not the best idea to continue to ride as often as you do in warmer weather and think there are no consequences. There are winter days and there are winter days if you catch my meaning and winter clothing can only do as much. 😉
I think it's also important for people to remember how winter riding can absolutely mash some trails. Often it's best to reduce the rides and reconsider where one rides in winter not just for ourselves and our kit but also to ensure we've got somewhere to shred come summer.
I once met a mechanic working on a full sus bike in shop he owned. I asked him if he rode bikes like that in the UK winter. His reply, “Are you kidding! With all these moving parts. What fool would do that?”
If the floor has patched ice you'll need to treat the patches the same as wet polished roots (avoid if possible). Some tyre companies will have ice specific tyres which are great for ice riding, not so good for anything else! 🤘
Main reason I love winter seasons, THE REAL RIDERS ARE OUT. And in my area, there’s not many. Having fun clear trails is my favorite. No need to worry about new riders, out of shape folk or even hikers.
Just got back from Windhill. Cold, wet and tired, couldn't be any better. With decent gear, a few good mates and a post ride bevvy there's no such thing as a bad day to ride.

This. You're only cold and wet for a few hours. Deal with it and have fun.
Right on!!

Winter is the only season I envy UK or Midwestern US weather, here in Canada it's really cold. Your winters are just autumns to me 😂

Nice dude, stoked you like the vid and great bit of extra advice. Happy skiing…. Not jealous at all
My winter months are in the low 50’s and highs in the lower 80’s. No rain! So I’m always in a good mood.
Let me guess California 🤔
@ no, Texas
You are very lucky.

I rate that in some ways. Sucks to be off the trails but it sucks harder when trails are ruined.
I ride the graveled logging roads - more xc than enduro - but still mtnBiking!!! @@andrewince8824
even more fun is make a rigid singlespeed for winter riding! abuse the hell out of it with virtually no maintenance and sharpens your skills
It's always fun, no matter the weather! 😝🤘
You just gotta get out there. Even if it sucks at first. Every ride I've started that I really did not want to do, I was happy as a dog rolling in shit after an hour.
Awesome attitude Rich !!! Just heading out on my hard tail now to have a greasy, mucky ride on the Canadian wet coast 🤙🏼🇨🇦
Have fun! 🌧️
All in one suit and just smash through everything bearings are cheap enough to replace and regular service on shock and forks
Enjoy it while u can

I do the same thing and I have Reynauds disease. I warm EVERYTHING up before I go out and I usually don't have any problems.
You forgot the strong hot Grog or mulled wine after the ride😊
I ride my Fat Bike & Plus Bike in the winter time & give my full suspension a break & get back on that in the spring. If it above 25 degrees, I ride all year round
Temperature is not a problem, even freezing... but mud... hell NO! Hate riding in mud.

No real downsides other than a few hundred grams in weight.
Right on time...just raining SoCal yesterday
I enjoy a little slop every now and then. It changes things up and I find it enjoyable as long as I am wearing the right gear.

Nice Gaff Richy!!
I use my digits for work so motor bike gloves for me all year
really like how MTBers dress. I like to use similar clothes, sporty but not necessarily lycra and stuff, whether I use my MTB, my hybrid fitness bike or a road bike. Btw, flat pedals are fine, gotta agree on that
"something like this" might wanna name drop the jacket dang it lol
If it's propper cold, it's essential to have somthing to cover your ears- otherwise - instant headache.

My bikes go into hibernation in winter 😂
My only issue with the winter riding is cold wind on my eyeballs even with wearing glasses.
Enjoy any riding that doesn't involve heat stroke
I’ve had for more than a few years, a wind blocker pull over vest undergarment. It’s got a “Gortex” front with a cotton/poly body.

It’s been winter all year.
What brand rain jacket is that?
Can anyone recommend a really good base layer that wicks sweat. Once I sweat I'm cold and that's it!
Yes woollen base layer, like Mons Royal is perfect 👌
Pls what brand is the jacket?
It's a Dainese jacket!

What do you do with your jacket once you're ten minutes in and realised you've worn too many layers again?
If you're lapping we tend to wrap it on itself so the inside will stay dry and stash it somewhere you know you'll be able to find it again!
I dont ride much in winter cause I got nowhere to clean and dry my bike peacufully :(
Anyone know the brand of that waterproof jacket?
It's a Dainese jacket!
I once met a mechanic working on a full sus bike in shop he owned. I asked him if he rode bikes like that in the UK winter. His reply, “Are you kidding! With all these moving parts. What fool would do that?”
that's why Orange are so popular - one pivot, two bearings!
I often take my full sus out in the winter, if you avoid road salt it's a nothingburger.
I have a old piece of turd cyclocross bike for salty roads 😂
That's why you get a hardcore hardtail for winter
Lol. A “fool” who has skill.. sounds like a Mechanic to me, they usually lack skill.😂
@@Usual_Goonsame as me.winter?my hardcore hardtail is solution 🤘
Worst is having to lean bike after each ride
Is Rich the long lost son of Marv Merchants?😊
How do you ride on ice ?
If the floor has patched ice you'll need to treat the patches the same as wet polished roots (avoid if possible). Some tyre companies will have ice specific tyres which are great for ice riding, not so good for anything else! 🤘
well for me wet dry weather gravel/rb bike and in weaty weather mtb☕️
Any rides a good ride
Too right 🔥🤘
Personally i dont enjoy it, therefore i tend not to bother if its coming down in straight lines.
First again!

Buy a dj, go to an indoor skatepark.

What do you actually mean by "technical material" ? Seems like a marketing term that dosn't actually mean anything useful.
If you dont wear a helmet you only need to come off once to cabbage yourself
No
No to winter riding?
Commuting so no choice
It blows my mind what the English call "winter"
Pretty sure we all celebrate the time of winter at… the… same… time…😂😂😂
@SkarryTerry winter is snow, here in Canada if we don't get snow we all say that it is not winter
@@N1CKSOuk winter is much the same as UK summer only darker. Still muddy, sloppy and wet.

whos house is that then you posh twt

What happened to all the real men? Bit of rain or temps go down and your all whinging ..... some men to get a grip
Less of this guy please
Just got back from Windhill. Cold, wet and tired, couldn't be any better. With decent gear, a few good mates and a post ride bevvy there's no such thing as a bad day to ride.
We couldn't have said it any better! 🎉
These guys are running out of stuff to make videos about.
If you are so wise, can you give them ideas 💡🤷♂️
There are no waterproof jackets, none perform.
