Woaaaah guys, i was there, in Alicante (or Alacant -catalan) and i lived in San Vicente del Raspeig! So great to see that all..unfortunately i was there without bike and even didnt knew about this trails... Love Alicante, love his beach, love his port, love Spain and love you guys! Thanks for memories!
Love Alicante, you chose a great location. Next time you are in Spain ask tour agent about the Sierra Crevillente and Castell Vell and the area around Hondon de las Nieves OR how about the Sierra Espuna near Alhama de Murcia, the ´Thousand Curves´ route (Mil Curvas) might possibly make a great video next time you´re in Spain. Any cafe, any weekend, (not mid summer), in Hondon de las Nieves you can find loads of Spanish MTB and road groups to talk to and they all know some wonderful routes. Great routes, great food, beer and friendly company, AND just the right climate in spring and autumn. Come back soon lads and do some more. Adiós mis amigos.
Oh what fun. A little different from what I am used to from you folks but it was very cool. Doddy, what does it feel like to have that crazy man Blake pushing you from behind? Crazy.
As if, I’ve just been to Benidorm and after flying over the mountains of Alicante I put a photo from outside the plane window while in flight saying that I wish I had my bike with me and said that gmbn should make a video there and after watching gmbn this video has popped up although you done it a year before I said lol, now gonna watch this with a fat coffee, afore the show guys, on my day off if I’m not riding I’m tuning in 👊
Wowwww. Such a good video. Loving all the Spain videos so far. Arriba España 🇪🇸 🇪🇸🇪🇸. Great content,(I'm sure getting all these different angles and "from above" shots is much easier now that you got all the big trees outta the way 😂. Wonderful job. Keep the good stuff coming!!!!
Visit the mountains of Alcoy and Onil, beautiful paths for mtb, or the bike park of La Fenasosa in Bañeres de Mariola, all north of Alicante. Welcome to Spain! :)
Just watched the boys on their first EMBN well done 👍 congratulations the sheds a little to clean and where's the frosty frough on the beers 🍻 Cheers to you guys well done . You Yangs Australia 👀
+Nick Watkins Nice one Nick. Appreciate your support. The boys are doing a great job on EMBN. Exciting times. Look forward to reading more comments and feedback from you in the future.
Next time come and visit us. We are the epicenter of that riding paradise. We are based in the Marina Baixa, area of Altea, Benidorm and we ride all around Puig Campana, Aitana, Bernia and more. You won´t be disappointed. If you need anything get in contact. Great channel, great web, great work you do guys.
WOW that looked epic , would love to that trail but to costly from Australia , maybe some day I'll find a epic trail in Australia great 👍 video . You Yangs Australia 👀
+William Keys it's not an ad actually. It's only because some of our sponsors paid for the trip that we have to say it's an Ad on the thumbnail. We made the video we wanted to make, no sponsors have any input or see the film before we put it out. Daft really as it's not an ad 😂 anyway glad you enjoyed it 🤘
Noo way!! You guys I'm actually in alicante now and was looking at some of the trails thinking.... Dam I wish I had my bike! Cool video..are those your bikes or did you rent??
Great ride guys! I have a question for doddy, wouldn't all the rattling and vibrations that mtb involves mess up the movement in your timepiece? Is it better to ride with a quartz one? #askgmbn
what about mountain biking close to Alicante?How far away from city you need to ride to ride in terrain(not downhil just something easier) do you have some tracks maybe?
I was impressed to see you hicking your bikes up that hill, I thought you guys would ride it! Btw I live in zaragoza (Spain) and the terrain is very similar to that in Alicante, look cool right? :D
John Bicycle it's possible to damage a tire beyond just sealant.... I've seen a pic of a3 inch gash in a tire that was ziptied and reinforced with a glove and a tube stayed in it....haha.
If you come to Alicante write me and I will recommend routes that you can download in wikilooc. Not by the coast, by the interior, mountains of the north of Alicante (Sierra Mariola, Bizcoi, Benicadell, etc)
I once punctured right on the top of Geiser 3 and had to walk down. Sucked pretty bad but I wasn't sure what was easier, walking down or riding down??? Steep, loose and rockier than the rock himself!
I think a bike wash was mentioned as some of the facilities on hand? Washing a bike out there looked like it could mostly be done by giving the bike a quick dust off rather than the hour of "soap" and water its currently taking here in sunny Wiltshire!
While EMBN were over in Alicante, they went on an epic, too. Check out Neil & Steve's ride here: gmbn.eu/embnepicride
Global Mountain Bike Network That looks awesome
Global Mountain Bike Network I just finished riding in the snow
Just watched it!
@askgmbn question for Blake, in your opinion what GoPro do you find is the best
Global Mountain Bike Network could you do an action 4K camera review please from budget ones upto GoPro please @askgmbn
this channel is by far the most hard working channel love these videos. Who else likes before the video starts?
The 'ride' articles are always my favourites in bike mags. Love the video versions just as much 🖒
Thanks Jon - they're some of our favourites to make, so more coming up for sure.
Liking these new style of episodes. It’s not all about the tips and tricks! Big fan of guides on locations etc
Thank you gmbn for making videos all the time

Visit the mountains of Alcoy and Onil, beautiful paths for mtb, or the bike park of La Fenasosa in Bañeres de Mariola, all north of Alicante.
Welcome to Spain! :)
To go Cuenca!!!
Am I watching 'A Place In The Sun', with Doddy and Bing-Bong? It's beautiful.

+Matthew Bojarski thanks fella
WOW that looked epic , would love to that trail but to costly from Australia , maybe some day I'll find a epic trail in Australia great 👍 video . You Yangs Australia 👀
We definitely need to make it to Australia soon!
I know it's basically an ad, but I still enjoyed it. It worked, I want to go to Spain to ride bikes this winter.
+William Keys it's not an ad actually. It's only because some of our sponsors paid for the trip that we have to say it's an Ad on the thumbnail. We made the video we wanted to make, no sponsors have any input or see the film before we put it out. Daft really as it's not an ad 😂 anyway glad you enjoyed it 🤘
That's cool. I know that you guys have to pay the bills one way or another.
superb can you tell me that for how much did you buy those mountain bukes
the town its called San VICENTE del Raspeig, nice video ;)
If only I had the money to ride in Spain
At 03:20 you show a pdf with routes and trails. Where can we get this?
Pls do more Holyday reviews!!
Great video, I live locally and was wondering if you had a gps route for garmin i could follow? Thanks
1:13 beer in a backpack or on the bike ?
a lot of nice tracks? worth visiting? (comparing to BCN area or Finale Ligure :) )
Noo way!! You guys I'm actually in alicante now and was looking at some of the trails thinking.... Dam I wish I had my bike! Cool video..are those your bikes or did you rent??
Best mtb channel like if you agree
Great ride guys! I have a question for doddy, wouldn't all the rattling and vibrations that mtb involves mess up the movement in your timepiece? Is it better to ride with a quartz one? #askgmbn
My brother just retired to a place near Villa Martin, Alicante region, bike holiday I think
what about mountain biking close to Alicante?How far away from city you need to ride to ride in terrain(not downhil just something easier) do you have some tracks maybe?
Why does none of them have gloves? And great vid been waiting for this one🔥
I was impressed to see you hicking your bikes up that hill, I thought you guys would ride it! Btw I live in zaragoza (Spain) and the terrain is very similar to that in Alicante, look cool right? :D
Very cool. We love the riding!
Super sick video GMBN!!!!
Thanks Tomi!
Hey GMBN. Can you guys please make a video about how much travel you need for drops and jumps you can do. Thanks
ŁØÂFŸ 73 31 Depends on how big the drops are!
Nice
+Er Pol very Nice.
Yes
Was Blake on clips or flats?
should do a video about ways to carry your bike for hike-a-bike: cyclocross carry vs over the head like here.
So let's get this straight GMBN did 20 miles in the same place EMBN only managed 12, round one to true peddle power good vid lads.
*Disclaimer* Blake saying 'that was like 20 miles' might not mean that the distance was actually 20 miles 😂 😂 😂
Look at the Channel Free Rider ROD they are 2 german kids they are so sweet
Guys, any chance you could share with me this amazing route pls? Thx
Can u do dirt jumping with a xc bike?
I want to see more of the ride, not just a compilation of slo-mo shots.
I've never been this early
Crabiest_ Cream neither!!!
You recommend taking spare tubes. What about going tubeless?
John Bicycle it's possible to damage a tire beyond just sealant.... I've seen a pic of a3 inch gash in a tire that was ziptied and reinforced with a glove and a tube stayed in it....haha.
But I've never had the opportunity to ride on such jagged rock
We all ride tubeless round here and it’s usually fine.
What Framesize blake have?
Is the vitus sentier vrs 2017 a good bike?
My phone's volume buttons will wear off because of you guys...
guys i have a few mild scratches on the top of my fork in a line of a bout two inches, is this bad and if so what shall i do?
Cheeky beer. lol, doddy, oh you...
I like this type of video, gives you good for thought. Bike holidays coming up 😉
Thanks Trailrider! Enjoy the bike holiday.
Anyone know how to access the list of routes they show?
Are the trails signposted because I would like to go and ride in alicante some time in the year ?
If you come to Alicante write me and I will recommend routes that you can download in wikilooc. Not by the coast, by the interior, mountains of the north of Alicante (Sierra Mariola, Bizcoi, Benicadell, etc)
So what was the paid promotion? Mondraker? Tourspain? The Valencia region? 🤔
This one's in association with TourSpain, The Valencia Region and The Costa Blanca Tourist boards :)
Omg I was there like 2days a go and my hotel was right next to the mountain omg
In Alicate now and planning to do some riding. Would you be able to share your route with me in case you recorded it please? Thx a lot
Dusan Magula sorry I didn’t record any so sorry
doddy really likes that watch....
He rarely takes it off!
I once punctured right on the top of Geiser 3 and had to walk down. Sucked pretty bad but I wasn't sure what was easier, walking down or riding down??? Steep, loose and rockier than the rock himself!
Bungle2010 fixed it at the bottom with a mates inner tube, he went first and was at the bottom before I could shout stop!
Do you think I could ride Alicante on the 2018 canyon spectral 6.0?
"Doddy lead the way" then blake leads
What to do the camera people use? Dirtbikes? Are they just riding along in front of you?
Just standard bikes! No dirt bikes on these trips :)
Want to see some video of doddy on hi gravel bike 👍🏻
Gmbn can u make a how to back flip video
Alicante bike wash = feather duster?
Bike wash?
I think a bike wash was mentioned as some of the facilities on hand?
Washing a bike out there looked like it could mostly be done by giving the bike a quick dust off rather than the hour of "soap" and water its currently taking here in sunny Wiltshire!
