"You can ride whatever you want as long as you're stoked on life."
words to live by
Legend
Nah but you need a good bike to have fun so what is he Sam saying.
@@MrCadburyG when i was a kid i used to get broken bikes of the side of the road and build em up with parts off other broken bikes and those things were the most fun haha
Cool
Yep, let's see more of these two together.
im sorry i liked this comment, it was on 69 likes, but i just had to like it
Agree! Awesome duo
I agree.😁 I don't think people realize how good these pair really are! Lol! There like the Dynamic Duo, but they're both Robin.
My 2 favourites on youtube!!
Two favorite maniacs on the bike - That was just Christmas again.
Two of the coolest guys together.
You think a middle aged man pulling daft faces & throwing shapes with his hands is cool! Cool, not!
@@stevesproul1627 Yeah yeah i do think its cool. I like watching people that enjoy life with inspiring enthusiasm and skill on the bike. He didnt get where he is today from being a sensible everyday joe. The guy is going flips on cheap second hand bikes! What do you honestly expect him to be like?
Pilgrim is a twat
Steve sproul I bet your a roady twat 😂😂
@@ianholmquist8492 mate your a twat going round Every comment and slating sam. Infact your a boring twat if you have nothing better to do
Sam with the wise words. Aslong as your stoked on life it does not matter what bike you ride.
Great combo - Sam adds value to everything he touches. Love Blake too btw. 100% enthusiasm and zero % ego.
In that case, he should touch his hillbilly chester the molester grin.
Pilgrim is more like 30% enthusiasm, 600% ego.
@@ianholmquist8492 , opinions are like arseholes, everybody's got one.
You're entitled to yours.
@@neilblundz807 thank you
@@neilblundz807 couldn't agree more mate, I've never thought of Sam Pilgrim as having a massive ego
My favourite GMBN episode ever!
Two mates having a laugh with no fancy gear.
Pinkbike: *dOeS a 5o0$ bIkE rIdE oN dIrT?*
Victor Daraban yes
Anyone else find the American accents they put on when they say “Droppin’ ” hilarious? Also, where’s the cheap bike 100$ upgrade challenge??????
Yes. upgrade challenge! But must be new parts from a GMBN sponsor's catalog.
lol is that what it was
Agreed! But they should spice it up and say it with an RP accent some time.
That's the bike that Blake bought for more than 100, he bought it for 130... 😂
Almost as hilarious as Ollie's Southern/Texas/Minnesota accent.
I like that the Marin still has the wheel reflectors on. Appropriate.
So nice to see two people who are clearly masters of what they're showing us just having a good time. No egos, no chest-pounding. Well done lads.
Sam's free bike is more expensive than my bike🙄
Brexon K it looks like it cost a fortune while it was new and modern.
Lol same
wth them forks and brakes 🤑
@@dooleh84 it's because he put fox 40's on it lol
J C he literally put stupidly expensive marzoochi forks on it lol
Sam is the champion of the FREE BIKE CHALLENGE! Those who watch his channel will know that that bike has been through a lot. Tacoed wheels, bent cranks, lots of stairs and big hits.
Woaaaahhhh! This is my local trails! So sick to see Blake ride here!
Haydnbrook03 _ where are the trails bud
lee nelson Danbury Common, Essex. In Chelmsford! 🤘🏼
Same
Haydnbrook03 _ Chelmsford in Essex
same!
Sick. This is gonna be a good watch. Blake and pilgs always kill it. If I done a collab with these 2 I would end up rolling round on the floor laughing all day. Good chemistry, sick video🤟🏻
Pilgrim looks so relaxed
Best video I've seen in ages, you two are legends!!
These two together always ends with a great video
That was a ton of fun, love seeing Blake & Sam play off of each other so easily, everything just seems to flow.
That Marin was the thing we used to ogle in the bike shop in about 1998
Cornwall's Answer that’s true, although I bought one and still have it in the garage today!
I collect a rebuild them, they're still incredible bikes
20:21
Sam: What gear are you in?
Blake: no
Correction Sam said nah not no
Great fun watching you two clowns tearing it up!
6:15 the most nervous 'drop in' I've ever heard
17:24 When he picks up the crumb hahahahha
X-D
..that energy was the defining moment Pilgrim held and was awarded as Alpha. I cringed
Nick A oh boy you have to learn a lot about real self confidence and what self irony is.
Maybe then you’ll discover that „Alpha“ is something else then pilgrims behavior in this video..
Name a more iconic duo
I’ll wait
Laughing all the way through this, need to see more of you two together, love it.
Yes! Would love to see more Blake and Sam collabs! Can we get Tom Cardy involved too? That could be it's own separate channel. You three could be the Clarkson Hammond and May of the mtb world!
Sams bike isnt cheap anymore i wished ohad those suspension and brakes
Still free to him though haha
It's free to him since all the parts that are on the bike came from the old free bike which those parts were laying around in his garage.
To be fair Sam is sponsored so it would all be free to him
Most excellent collab!
Love these low budget (bikes and environment), high talent vids! Keep 'em coming lads, we love it!
Blake and Sam always make the sickest videos
Blake rocks but any video with SP is gonna be a winner!
Blake is great but somebody please kill Pilgrim i can stand him
I saw your other comments above, get a life bro! No-one here likes the negativity!
@@ianholmquist8492 you must have a sad life, how long did it take you to go through the comments to write bad stuff about sam
@@ianholmquist8492 fucking hell, he really does trigger you doesn't he.
They are both so good and they seem to genuinely enjoy challenging each other. I think Blake showed incredible agility on a couple occasions: like when he was unable to complete the second 360 and landed on his feet. Nice! Thanks guys!!!
The best crossover episode ever...
Change my mind
What a great laugh. Was grinning all the way through. Those two have great chemistry too. Very entertaining.
10:43
“Knucks... potato”
“Aw”
We need more of Sam and Blake
Now you've got me seeing helicopters......hahahaha
Blake:"Hey how are the brakes on this one?", Sam:"Oh they are perfect for mannys because when you pull them they dont work". Hahahahahahah, that made my day. These two need to do more bikechallenges please!!!
“It was so scary I had to table it..” 😂😂
These two together is absolute gold! 🤙
The Sam and Blake videos are the best!!!
+1 like for BLAKE.. He never gives up 👍
"FRS" Free ride session! Hahaha 🤣
I could watch these 2 ride together all day. So enjoyable to watch, awesome!
What a dynamic duo! Your both legends
ill sub to you if you sub to me
I think Sam might have missed out a couple of his sponsors, best make another video
I'm pretty sure they're on there somewhere - the bigger the sponsor the smaller the sticker, right? RIGHT?!
Where is this filmed?
@@zeusdreadbeard8990 in the woods
@@zeusdreadbeard8990 a year later. Danbury common
Great vid! Loved the banter and some amazing skills too
Ahh two of my favourite channels all mixed in one.... SICK and gotta love watching pros push cheap bike to the limits and sometimes beyond 👍🏻
what about this: next time road bikes and be clipped in and then jump XD!
My two favourite mountain bikers 😁!!!!!
v
Absolutely Loved It!! I laughed sooo Hard I blurred my vision. Had to replay
I can see these two running around on a battlefield with swords slaying people left and right laughing whilst completely oblivious anything else.
Nice Video but sam had a better bike !
Yea it's not really 'cheap' anymore, he's swapped out the forks, rear shock, wheelset, brakes, bars...
True
But I think Blake's bike got better geometry. The wheel base on Sam's bike is super short.
@@s14tat -.-
@@AlonsitisDuff all you need to do is put shorter stem and longer bars and the head tube angle and wheel base is more modern vs sams bike. Sams bike stock had quill stem and the geo actually really wonky. The double crown fork actually slacked the bike out big time.
Sam "my bike is fully free" *bike wearing a pair of pricey forks*
Me "free, huh?"
Awesome video. Two amazing characters in one video......EPIC. MORE PLEASE.
Definetly more of these two! Hilarious video!!!
Anyone else feel like Blake was at a disadvantage... for multiple reasons
The fork ,the brakes etc
Nope, as you can see, sam also using the other bike. He's just more skill and had more experience in DJ.
@@gjdlc too bad he's a jerk
Maybe a lil but sam was shredding blakes bike way harder than blake him self..but sam it so confortable on shitty bike bc of all free bike challanges he does and you cant hate him for been 1 step ahead
`Size?
such a good duo
Absolutely awesome. Top of the line skills and still just two mates having a laugh.
One of the best MTB videos I’ve watched. Droppin haha
Found myself laughing out loud watching these guys do stuff I can only dream of. Thanks for posting this. AND yes, please do more like it. Sam and Blake are simply fun to watch. I liked the Blake Danny Mac roll! But Sam is THE Man!
18:09 cheeky lewbo coming into shot there???
To the sky at the end had me in stitches 🤣 🤘🏻 that was well the best vid ever
Really enjoyed this video. So funny. Great stuff 😂👍
The first "Cheap bike challenge" was better, I only say that because the bikes were all cheap scrappers, as opposed to Sam being on what was once an expensive bike, ie DH bike with triple clamps etc, and Blake being on the equivalent to a Halfords Carrera (in terms of relative value) Still a good vid but both should've been on equal equipment, So I give this one to Blake ;¬)
sam put on the boxxer fork he had laying around it was a lot like blakes before
LostKeys "Was" being the key word here. That bike had Magura brakes, Hope wheelset, Chris King headset, Triple clamp fork, Newish stem and bars, shock, etc . Blake's bike was, and still is, low end
Sam locks his fork out
i got a $1200 race bike and that thing is lesser quality than my first gen Schwinn frontier from the 90s
ill sub to you if you sub to me
10,000 Subscribers without videos challenge Bro, the video says cheap, not free. You aren't buying a Chris King headset for the cost of Blake's entire bike (minus the pedals) I'm sure Blake being a sponsored rider would be able to make a "free bike" up as well, but, in essence that isn't the "cheap bike challenge" it's the "upgrade a beater with all your old sponsorship freebies you have lying around challenge"
We need a free bike world cup
One of the best videos! Keep up the good work
That was just beautiful! The first ten minutes especially took me straight back to my childhood!
Thoroughly humorous throughout! Two guys with world class skills, having a good time on cheap bikes in the woods! Yes, you have to do more! The chemistry between these two is so raw and natural. As much fun as it was, the skill it takes to pull off any of those tricks, is skill that I don't have, yet!
Get Neil involved as well!!!!!
This!
He'll be the guy in the helicopter :P
🤪
To counteract all the fun?
@@nicholasicke8642 he'd be better than pilgrim
That was awesome! Real funny and entertaining, keep Blake & Sam making these kind of vids GMBN! Great chemistry 🤜🤛
YEAH, I need more of this , great job guys. Felt like i was there except i don't know anyone that good
Sam should definitely be a new addition to the show
I ride those trails loads, sick to see you guys there
Where is it?
@@morganpicker9464 Danbury common
@@fraser7435 cheers mate
i enjoyed watching u guys clown around, had a similiar not long ago and this rly reminded me of some good times with it. keep it up
Loved this video it looks like so much fun. Thanks.
there is lewi pilgrim at 18:09
This is hands down the best gmbn video.
Not by any stretch of the imagination
yesss! best series, cant wait for next episode!
Double awesome! A great video with 2 great guys but, the icing on the cake, I had to pause at 22:03 because the doorbell rang. It was the post with my million subscribers T-shirt and a GMBN sweatshirt : )))
I guess you could say it's a *FREEride* bike lmao
Lmao do you know me from Instagram? The dude that pranked you😂✌️
@@nilsdreher2285 lmao sup bro
@@jakebraun6376 funny that I saw you here in the comment section 😂😂
@@nilsdreher2285 lol I guess people all over the world watch GMBN, I was featured in a video a while back, idk if you knew me back then though lol
@@jakebraun6376 oh nice 🤘 yeah GMBN is one of the best MTB Chanel's.
Btw do you know Seth's bike hacks ?
When will Sam become a permanent member of the GMBN team. He really would make a massive difference.
Yes he would ruin it
@@ianholmquist8492 explain.... oh wait you cant
@@ianholmquist8492 You're jealousy is so obvious or you're some boomer that can't handle jokes.
They are so clearly having fun and Sam's personality is so easy-going and just generally positive...great fun with great friends.
Yes, more please!! We love the Chuckle Brother Cookie Challenges!
2:30 Just close your eyes and send it!
Blake's bike looks really scary. Like XC bike and enduro bike had ugly child.
How did you get a free bike that is full squish and has a double crown fork
And Magura MT 7 at the front and back
Sam had a bunch of parts lying around and got the frame for free. So...it's 'free'
He has cheated then.
Charles Stenner Chris King headset costs more than Blake's entire bike
@@charlesstenner7526 not really, considering he didn't pay for them.. Even when they were just laying around.. His first 'free bike' challenge bike was 100% free and he still shredded on it..
Amazing VIDEO. Laughed and enjoyed it so much. Thank you. 29th April 2021
Great to see two fun people showing some serious skills. Do it again boys
LMAO Sam with a legendary 'Part time mountainbiker'
More more more more more more
You guys are epic in combo vids. Not a dull moment at all
Loved it, would love to see more shenanigans with you pair!
Where can I get these free Magura MT7 Raceline ?
dope brakes for sure
Be Sam Pilgrim
Of the INTERNET bro
Sams isn’t free😂it has like £500 of upgrades on it and Blake’s was just over £100
it may be 500 of upgrades but the parts where laying around his shed and are parts that are years old minus the breaks
And were probably given to him in the first place as well. It is a bit miss leading acting like it's a cheap scrapper like Blake but I bet he's not lying when he says its totally free to him.
This video was great to watch and I'm sure it was great fun to do. Good old cheap bikes.
Blake that was killing me you coming down that hill rolling over time and time again LOL!!!!! literally laughed out loud..:D good video guys..
gotta do more with sam pilgrim
Kind of unfair seen as sams was upgraded
Free from sponsors tho. Still free lol
@@bikeswithmike9415 be better though if he had it completely stock rather then putting downhill forks on
Did you even watch the video? Sam still killed it on Blakes bike, y'all are ignorant, especially if you think this was supposed to be serious competition. It was just entertainment. So your point is not valid. Stop being a narcissistic clown and just enjoy something for once.
Heck yeah 100% want to see more of these match ups! Its actually more fun to watch free bike and cheap bike challenges than expensive bikes cuz all of us have been there. Riding bikes, brakes not working, chains falling off, wrong tires, this is too awesome! FREEBIT!!!
Sam Pilgrim "this is my free bike with a 1000 dollar DH fork, upgraded handle bars wheels and brakes"
Sam's spare parts on his free bike are prob worth more than my entire bike......
lol
Sam's fork is worth more than my entire bike, let alone the rest of it
Sam+Blake=$$$
This was awesome, you guys are F'ing nuts!!
Apart from when Martyn said "Look at that crazy boat!", which got me hooked on this show, this is by far the funniest episode I've ever seen. You could do a fundraiser offering people a chance to get Blake to roll that segment over and over by calling in and paying.
Good to see a couple of pros enjoying some cheap bikes.
I think Blake said it was 'way more fun on this cheap bike.'
