True story: I’m riding the chairlift with Josh and Nick (VanCan) at Whistler. Josh sees a guy dropping in on A-Line on a hardtail. He yells to the guy “Hard tail, hard life!” The guy replies “Hard tail, hard dick!”
That Jung dude that Josh passed @ the end is an absolutely homie. He helped me out when I fractured my shoulder during the pinnacle of covid even though I was a stranger.
That race was a riot and you most definitely added to the fun factor out there! Was awesome meeting and racing with you. Hope to ride together again sometime!👊
Taco time!! We have a similar Mexican restaurant in our town that my wife and I would go to when we were dating 23 years ago and we still go on dates there today! I'll have to visit El Rinconcito when we're in Bellingham. 🌮
It is a niche market but the camaraderie is incredible. I was so excited watching you have fun doing something you love. Say hi to Jamie and Reuben and, yes, support your local Mexican restaurant. 😣🤙
This is really cool. I've never ridden one and even a "cheep" e bike is far out of my range. I have a basic peddle mtn bike now but it's hard for me to get around on due to medical issues. Especially for everyday transportation 🤦
Yep...we have our own crop of over-confident "Enduro bro's" in New England as well 🤦🏾 ** this is near and dear to my heart as I try to frequent as many of my local Mexicano restaurants I can ✊🏾
Hello sir I saw your video where u had all the ebikes given to u , I'm 40 and on disability I cannot afford a car or a ebike but I need a part time job just to get by with how expensive things have gotten I receive 1000 a month 8 goes to rent and then prescription and gas money, I was wondering of u could donate one to me I would be forever grateful, it would allow me to get a job a live a little better I would appreciate any help u could give thanks
I thoroughly disagree with your opinions. competitiveness is human nature, it's completley normal and natural for guys to all want to be the best. competition is healthy in sport. if everyone's "just there to have fun" the sport doesn't really evolve. also being competitive is fun, if you're making up excuses to not be competitive anymore it's because *you quit*. there is nothing wrong with biking casually, or even casually racing. just don't make comments about how "everyone just wants to be the best" because that's completley normal and healthy. also, you're wrong about the slim chances to make money riding bikes. define wealth. if you have enough money to eat and ride a bike without any other jobs, then congratulations you're making money as an athlete. embrace minimalism. if you put in serious work with your cameras and editing skills you will grow. if you put in serious work with your training you will eventually find a solution to your money problems. I'm starting a community youth athletics program to help kids safely get into action sports. because I want to make money as an athlete. (and only 40% of children are considered "fit", we need to teach the kids how to be healthy,) anyways, let's end negative thought patterns and create a better world, you certainly can be one of the top performing athletes if you so choose. you can certainly make money as an athlete, if you choose to do it full time for barely any pay in the beginning. you can't just have a full time career job and "practice after work and on the weekends" I train 8 hours a day and I've only gotten one sponsorship for an unrelated sport. but, I only need food money, other than that I'm out training. if you're lucky you can doordash on a bike for training and make money. just give up your life and personal possessions. you don't need them. (if you started a family, that's on you broski, you got responsibility to take care of them now.) I threw away everything I owned, except my sports equipment. the way I see it: if I can't put it in a backpack and travel the world I don't need to own it I literally only wear gym clothes at this point shredding is all I want and anyone can do it
"Hard Tail, Hard Life, Hard Shell" Awesome!

I've been noticing a lot of MTB UA-cam has been getting a bit (too) serious from time to time; this is a great reminder. Love it
enduro racing is NOT endurance racing. Endurance racing is just xc but longer
That was adorable! Loved the combo of advocation for local eating, and shredding sick trails🤘🤘
That race was a riot and you most definitely added to the fun factor out there! Was awesome meeting and racing with you. Hope to ride together again sometime!👊
That's awesome. You did great. Where does one find a taco costume? Now you need to start an all taco band 🤪. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Dude you are a shredder my amigo 🤘
Taco time!! We have a similar Mexican restaurant in our town that my wife and I would go to when we were dating 23 years ago and we still go on dates there today! I'll have to visit El Rinconcito when we're in Bellingham. 🌮
When are we getting an update on your Sept. 2 video? Been following along and it looks like good things are happening!
Everyone at the race, "I don't know why, but we should get tacos after..."
Yes it's not about winning.
It's about being able to return safe. And have fun
This wasnt a bad idea, this was the correct idea.
every time the crowd cheered and you yelled its taco time i cracked up 😂 nice one man!!
Beautiful DH race, congrats bro and support
First?
Can't be to disappointed on placing on the podium. We'll done you crazy flying 🌮
It is a niche market but the camaraderie is incredible. I was so excited watching you have fun doing something you love. Say hi to Jamie and Reuben and, yes, support your local Mexican restaurant. 😣🤙
I hate edits. Why not show the whole race. "Here is the fun section I like" - EDIT.
This is really cool. I've never ridden one and even a "cheep" e bike is far out of my range. I have a basic peddle mtn bike now but it's hard for me to get around on due to medical issues. Especially for everyday transportation 🤦
That, Sir, is enduro done RIGHT! (Pity the race wasn't on a Tuesday.)
I wish you had some footage of you riding in the costume, would have been funny. Great job.
The crazy part is, you took 2nd on a hardtail, not some mega travel enduro weapon. I hope they still made some Pozole for you
Going to our local Mexican place manana but right this second I have a craving for Taco Time
It could have been even more epic you dressed as Deadpool with a chimichanga
Tacos and wheels...no bueno! Haha!
yeah tiger mountain!
whoohoo taco!
1:56 El Rinconcito is at Yew st. It doesnt get any more MTB than that.
My dog's name is Taco, lol
was the winner also rocking the hard tail? thats awesome
I WISH I could ride MTB daily!!!
The punch sound effect is so over done and lame time to get done with it
Bravo! Riding a hardcore hardtail also.
This was great 🤙🏾💯
Great riding what oil slick stem is that?
Taco man sending it
awesome video man
Great that you had a good time. Yeah 🌮!
Can I have one of your e bikes
Winning is fun also. 😁
This video made my day man. That was an awesome looking race. I've never leaned in my chair watching a video of a race until today.
Yep...we have our own crop of over-confident "Enduro bro's" in New England as well 🤦🏾
** this is near and dear to my heart as I try to frequent as many of my local Mexicano restaurants I can ✊🏾
We got it good here.
Right on man!
Jaime mentioned Pozole, love that stuff. Mtn biking and good Mexican food are great combos.
Congratulations on your 2nd place finish.
Taco time!
I wish more countries adopted things like Fiver's that NSMB puts on, it seems really fun without all the seriousness that encompasses enduro racing
I rode in the group that only did 3 of those stages on my FS bike and it was exhausting. I can’t imagine doing all 6 stages on a hardtail. Nice job!!!
Love the vids keep the hard work up as a UA-camr and a pastor
Next year my daughter and I hope to do this enduro race.
Great video!

anyways,
let's end negative thought patterns and create a better world,
you certainly can be one of the top performing athletes if you so choose.
you can certainly make money as an athlete, if you choose to do it full time for barely any pay in the beginning.
you can't just have a full time career job and "practice after work and on the weekends"
I train 8 hours a day and I've only gotten one sponsorship for an unrelated sport.
but, I only need food money, other than that I'm out training.
if you're lucky you can doordash on a bike for training and make money.
just give up your life and personal possessions. you don't need them. (if you started a family, that's on you broski, you got responsibility to take care of them now.)
I threw away everything I owned, except my sports equipment.
the way I see it: if I can't put it in a backpack and travel the world I don't need to own it
I literally only wear gym clothes at this point
shredding is all I want
and anyone can do it
How about enduro but using only Walmart bikes
Hey josh. I see you have the bomber z1on your hardtail.. are you enjoying it?
nice work out there :)
