Thanks for showing me around, Evan! We actually got to hang out a few more times during my visit, and today our kids even got to ride balance bikes together. That was cool! See you again the next time I’m in Bentonville.
This is legit why I keep watching UA-cam. The community outshines the platform everyday! 2 buds riding bikes and loving it. This was some wholesome stuff to watch lol
I haven't seen Seth look so natural or friendly forever. Usually in his videos he just has been kind of douchy lately which is sad because I still love to watch him when he was more humble. It's good to see him looking like a human being again
Very happy for you! I remember the first time you talked about meeting him a few years ago.. I've been following you since abt 2k subs and uhh, fair to say that you've developed a lot! Good on you Evan!
Dang dude, congrats. That’s a big bucket list item unlocked for you✅. This vid has it all, awesome trails, good peeps, soul ride, and some linkin park sprinkled in.
I have been watching this channel for a while now, I think since the vintage full suspention series, and I absolutely knew you were going somewhere with your youtube channel. I knew that one day you would be working with these lovely people. I know you have put so much work into this channel. So proud of you man!
Thanks man! Funny enough on that vintage full sus series is when I truly figured out how to make these videos. I tell people those were the videos where it happened. And in that series, I learned to create a story and use music to portray emotion. I appreciate you being around so long!
Great job and congrats on your continued success and perks like getting to ride with Seth. I’m a big fan of his since his very first video. My Navy buddies and I were just in B-ville for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We hit many of the trails you rode in this video. Very cool area!👍😉
Great video Evan. Seth is a very unselfish person. He obviously likes to help use his own high status and influence to support the mountain bike community as much as he can. You are one of the lucky beneficiaries on this occasion. Keep up the good work on this channel. Best wishes from a member of the UK MTB community.
The fact you did that trail on a hardtail really inspires me. I’m a road bike cyclist. But I just bought my first hardtail and is getting ready to start a UA-cam channel. I live in Greensboro nc so berm park will be in my future. You guys killed it.
Dude you were keeping up with Seth on a hardtail, like no big deal. Seth seems like a great guy. Really nice shots and video editing...and great riding!
Thanks for the video. I'm in Missouri and would love to have a wahoo PDF map to ride what you did on this video. It's so hard to find a good ride for a day. Especially if you don't know the trails and are wore out from climbing. Thanks again
It’s cool to see a more candid side of seth. Looks like you guys had tons of fun! More so i think seth enjoyed the ride without having to film where he could just enjoy the ride!
So happy for you Evan. I remember that goal you made for yourselve when you bought Seth's old bike. You rose up so fast. Now we need the guys over at gmbn to know who you are.
Haha I met a few of them here! I don't think any other channel can help views for me. Just gotta stay the course and make as good of a video as possible
First mountain bike video that I've heard a song by Madonna in? Nice to see you guys together. My next door neighbor I from nearby there. He is teaching here at the University about mushrooms. He is not into biking but is into fishing which is what I mostly do
Dude, I just got back to Dallas from a three day trip to Bentonville - the weather was great, my dad and I had a blast. Coler was fun, but I really liked the north end of the razorback trail, popping in and out of trail on the side. Again, great weather Nov 13-16. We packed tons of cold weather gear expecting overcast but it broke perfectly! We stayed at a Vrbo house like RIGHT by Coler (3rd and NW K st, called KOM house of anyone is looking for a good short term rental out there)
Heck yeah man I'm glad you had fun. By this time last year, we had snow twice in November and the trails were super wet. Very mild, nice weather right now! Glad you liked it!
@EvansMTBSaga Yeah, we left at 9:30 am this morning when it was all overcast, hit a light drizzle south of Fayetteville. We definitely got the best days of the week. And bonus - not to plug that Vrbo rental more - it's only $90/ night on weekdays versus the insane weekend rate. It's getting late in the season, but I highly recommend a visit to Bentonville for riders of all styles. It's more bike friendly than Eugene, OR was when I left in 2005, and that's the bike friendliest town I knew until now. 😀
Seth is right, your riding doesn’t translate to the camera. After riding with Seth, seeing how fast he is. You kept up the whole time! Much respect! Also so glad you guys got to collaborate! Edit: awesome music on this video, linkin park and never ending story soundtrack!
Heck yeah man thanks for the props! He was sending it for being a visitor here. Glad you liked the music, I had to pay like $100 to use those tracks haha
I was in town earlier this week and just randomly ran into Seth at the Masterpiece. Later that day I hit Drop the Hammer for the first time which is nearly twice the size of my previous biggest drop! It was an epic day for sure! 🤘
Funny you say "you've gotta run clipless racing BMX". I recall around 1998 when that was considered insanity, Brian Lopes really started the trend, Christophe LeVeque. I remember that year distinctly. The summer between 7th and eight grade, I gained 20 pounds, switched to clipless from crupi cages and shaved six seconds of my lap time on the local track. When you're 100 lbs on a 15 lb bike, the increase in power and control was like using a cheat code against people that were afraid of them.
Christophe - the king of 44 16 haha. I started racing in 1997 and didn't run clips until I had been racing for 5 years. BMX these days is so much different. The tracks are as smooth as glass. Tires are basically slicks. Every kid from 5 y/o inter has a trainer. No need to put your foot down in turns.
@EvansMTBSaga - my dad and I are gonna be in Bentonville next week. He's got the lungs and the legs, me... not as much but have technical skills. Any recommended loops, paths, trails you'd recommend for "blue trail riders"? I'll be riding my 2008 specialized epic, he's on a Santa Cruz Tall Boy from 2017? So we've each got at least 100 mm of squish on both ends. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated, but if you're busy - maybe we'll see you out there next week. 😉
When I come to Bentonville and we ride together you BETTER have a clip of you saying "The Calirado Kid is one of the best mountain bike creators and maybe one day I'll ride with him" or I'll be PISSED! 😂
Seeing well groomed trails looks so alien to me. In the UK I'm just riding bridleways that are overgrown, unpredictable and have been beaten down by cattle, horses and farm vehicles...
Thanks for showing me around, Evan! We actually got to hang out a few more times during my visit, and today our kids even got to ride balance bikes together. That was cool! See you again the next time I’m in Bentonville.
Congratulations on the newborn, Seth!
Glad we got to ride together! Such an amazing town! Thanks for the Collab!
So cool seeing you guys ride, been waiting for this one!!
you and even should do more collabs
While watching this vid i watched this comment get pinned
Props for shouting out small youtubers, Evan!
Oh yeah bro, Seth’s UA-cam channel is very small
I laughed so hard I threw coffee at my tv 12 feet away.
Thanks dude 😂
@@KyleSantisiwoooosh
Seth must've been star struck the whole time! 🤣
hahahhaahahah
Seth is such a good dude… so happy for you being able to ride with him!!!
Nice!! I watch Seth all the time and this is such a good colab!
Nice job Evan! Your videos and editing have improved so much lately!!!
Thanks dude!
This is legit why I keep watching UA-cam.
The community outshines the platform everyday!
2 buds riding bikes and loving it.
This was some wholesome stuff to watch lol
Thanks for the nice comment man!
I love how Evan had some moments of being Star Struck. I would be too of course, but it's awesome how humble Evan is. Never change man!
Thanks dude!
This must've been a dream come true, to meet your role model! So happy for you Evan!
I haven't seen Seth look so natural or friendly forever. Usually in his videos he just has been kind of douchy lately which is sad because I still love to watch him when he was more humble. It's good to see him looking like a human being again
Wow, so nice to see my favorite youtubers making a video and having a good time. That trails looks great. I am glad for both of you.
Very happy for you! I remember the first time you talked about meeting him a few years ago.. I've been following you since abt 2k subs and uhh, fair to say that you've developed a lot! Good on you Evan!
Thanks Wilmer! You're a true OG!
This was a fun video to watch, Evan. You really captured the excitement 🤙🏻 put together really well and great music, too. I really enjoyed it
Thanks Chris!

Such a great video 🤠 and Seth is a great advocate for biking. Cool that you got to do a soul ride with him 👍
Love the music in this one dude. You guys got all the fun stuff.
So good to see the collaboration between both of you, hope to see more similar videos and action next time 👍🏻👍🏻
Super cool of Seth to reach out to you and you did an excellent job on the collab!
Great job and congrats on your continued success and perks like getting to ride with Seth. I’m a big fan of his since his very first video. My Navy buddies and I were just in B-ville for the first time a couple of weeks ago. We hit many of the trails you rode in this video. Very cool area!👍😉
The collab in Bentonville we've been waiting for 🙌🏼
Congrats, Evan! It's been cool to see your channel's success grow from humble beginnings to riding with Seth!
Great video Evan. Seth is a very unselfish person. He obviously likes to help use his own high status and influence to support the mountain bike community as much as he can. You are one of the lucky beneficiaries on this occasion. Keep up the good work on this channel. Best wishes from a member of the UK MTB community.
I ran into you and Seth while you were filming a video! You guys were really nice! Thank you for the UA-cam tips!
Heck yeah on dragon scales right?
@@EvansMTBSaga Yeah!
Great video and that Revel Ranger Seth was riding is a sweet bike.
Genuinely happy for you Even! Great work, keep it up.
Seth! 👍👍 Those Bentonville trails look amazing. I’ll make it there one day.
It’s so nice to see cooperation between UA-camrs! It makes me happy and excited , almost sentimental
Great Collab - 😆- Spot on job on capturing what it's really all about - smiles all the way and just getting out and having a good time !
Congrats on your success so far! Love the content. Keep the vids flowing! Very happy you finally got to ride with Seth.
The fact you did that trail on a hardtail really inspires me. I’m a road bike cyclist. But I just bought my first hardtail and is getting ready to start a UA-cam channel. I live in Greensboro nc so berm park will be in my future. You guys killed it.
Heck yeah man. You gonna make videos on the account you're commenting from now? I'll check out your stuff
@@EvansMTBSaga yes but the name will be different
Nice to see you and Bmx racer as well and an nag.champion. Awesome.
Awesome music!
Thanks for the video Evan, so proud of you 👍
I like the trail preview drone footage, looks nice
Dream come true!🤘🏻
You're killing me with the bromance music 😂😂😂 my two favorite channels ❤
Seeing you guys having fun is what it's all about! Definitely need to have Seth show you around!
exactyl what i was hoping to see during the bike fest! Solid colab! Soul ride!
Dude you were keeping up with Seth on a hardtail, like no big deal.
Seth seems like a great guy. Really nice shots and video editing...and great riding!
Thanks Robert! I have that local advantage haha. Hes fearless I tell you. I appreciate the props on the edit and music
2 incredible creators coming together! How has UA-cam not imploded yet?! HA! Great video!
That was enjoyable, the over the top builds are also fun but that's the well edited content that's just fun to watch... 😊
I immediately clicked! So exited to see you both together finally.
I hope to see you there later this week out on the trails or maybe in town
Thanks for the video. I'm in Missouri and would love to have a wahoo PDF map to ride what you did on this video. It's so hard to find a good ride for a day. Especially if you don't know the trails and are wore out from climbing. Thanks again

Agreed!
Great vid Evan! Glad you got to ride with Seth too.
Fun vid. Enjoyed watching you guys ripping those trails!
Congratulations 🎉
Thanks man! Appreciate you supporting me from the start
WOW riding with Seth. Your so lucky!!! Looked so much fun🤟🏻
'Why would I crash, I'm not gonna do that" Sounds a bit like foreshadowing. I'm writing this having paused the video not seeing it all yet.
Haha sorry to disappoint, no foreshadowing there. It was a funny line though
Fun video! Seth was sending the ranger!
Great video! Seth appears to be such a genuine great guy!
So happy for you Evan. I remember that goal you made for yourselve when you bought Seth's old bike. You rose up so fast. Now we need the guys over at gmbn to know who you are.
Haha I met a few of them here! I don't think any other channel can help views for me. Just gotta stay the course and make as good of a video as possible
SO happy for you Evan!!! That must have been awesome!!
Finally!!!! so happy for you dude!
Awesome Seth and Evan you rock!
Love Evans Highlander. We have the same ride, it's a good little SUV!
Love seeing 2 of my favorite UA-camrs in the same video. You guys make it look so easy. I'd be pushed to the borderline.
Nice pun! Thanks for the support my friend!
First mountain bike video that I've heard a song by Madonna in? Nice to see you guys together.
My next door neighbor I from nearby there. He is teaching here at the University about mushrooms. He is not into biking but is into fishing which is what I mostly do
Congratulations! Great ride
Incredible video and location! Congrats!
Awesome music selections
I know Seth has more subscribers than you but I see you two as equals. You are on your way to the top, Evan! Keep up the great work!
Ok but when the hell did Evan get 131k subs? Great to see how far he's come.
Great collaboration, Seth's a stand up guy what you see the videos is what you get in real life.
love you, your channel and seth! keep up the good work!
That old Seth clip was at Virginia key, Miami . Funny I was there today.🎉
Dude, I just got back to Dallas from a three day trip to Bentonville - the weather was great, my dad and I had a blast. Coler was fun, but I really liked the north end of the razorback trail, popping in and out of trail on the side.

🎵🎶Border line🎶🎵
Seth, your old work got a lot of us into this sport.
This is huge Evan, I remember watching the video when you bought Seth’s old parts. Could you do a dh build for shuttle laps/park stuff?
The MTB world is just too awesome, I keep meeting awesome people!
Finally!!! both of you in the same video!!!, nice
Great video guys!!!
That was cool. 💯👍
That's a cool video watched it in full some great trails there
Honestly proud of you Evan!
So cool to see you both collab 🙌
I want to ride with you Evan! A friend came to town a couple weeks ago and I showed them the exact same trails because they are my faves.
I was in town earlier this week and just randomly ran into Seth at the Masterpiece. Later that day I hit Drop the Hammer for the first time which is nearly twice the size of my previous biggest drop! It was an epic day for sure! 🤘
Heck yeah! Drop the hammer is amazing for unlocking confidence
congrats seth
Ang lupet ni Seth! When I heard Seth is in Bentonville, I just knew that you and him are gonna ride
Riding with Seth is how you know you made it big
Hell ya that was awesome and fun to watch. Also I just got my first full suspension. I got the Rocky Mountain Instinct and it’s pretty dang sweet.
yeahhh man, congratulations!!!
Fantastic video! I'm also sad enough to know that tune you used around 12m30! Good old Never Ending Story soundtrack! Lol
I’ve been trying to get out to Bentonville! Hopefully I’ll make it in ‘24
Seth on a Ranger, nice!
He was sending that thing. That poor sid rear shock 😂
"water treatment plant" is a nice way to describe that facility.
Haha we had to keep it PG. I call it the shit pond
@@EvansMTBSaga that's WAY more accurate. 🤣
Great video!

Awesome video!!
Hope to see Seth and you out there
Seeing well groomed trails looks so alien to me. In the UK I'm just riding bridleways that are overgrown, unpredictable and have been beaten down by cattle, horses and farm vehicles...
Love the music, thank you!
You really should come down to Hot Springs and ride Northwoods/ cedar glades. You'd love it if you have never been its well worth rhe drive.
The Dynamic Duo!!
Hope to see you team up again at Berm Peak.
