Yeah Delaware! Thanks for visiting the First State (and the civics lesson) BKXC, next time you are here you'll have to check out Middle Run and White Clay Creek parks with miles of fun flowy trails.
Seriously man im not fluent at english (not my national language) but i realize video after video u talk about history of that state u visit? Its really cool its more than ride a bike. U just made excelent content. For me its very interisting keep inspiring love from indonesia
that cam of yours is incredibly still and clear! I run these same trails, builds incredible dexterity and foot work some of the cyclists get a little peeved, but i always yield to them summer time equals a lot of bugs and oppressive humidity. white clay creek in Newark is getting better, try that. thanks for visiting!
Brian the silver foil side out is to reflect the heat Black side out is to absorb the heat. In the summer you want silverside out to reject the heat outside of the van
White Clay is great and noticed a lot of jumps being built recently. Good for beginners but fun for all, and no better groomed trails that I know of within 100 miles.
@@ale_gaming4531 I love it, more technical trails and it links up with white clay as well. I like how it does not have gravel trails like white clay does. Along with that there are some unique trails such as the corkscrew like section and towards the bottom of the creek there is a nice stretch of trail built on rocks
Thank you Brian. Your channel and videos rock! Complementing the MTB trial rides with your personal perspective of history behind the places you visit and the logistics of your van, gear, etc make your stories some much more appealing than other channels. If I may suggest, adding the route using any app (strava, or Relive or Komoot or whatever) would further complement your videos (it is also good marketing for the locals!). See you on the trail!!
Well done Brian, keep your flowing commentary going. State's history of your 50 state shred is a integral part of your rides. Your ability to comment while riding and make sense is at a genius level, well done. NOW, yeah.... just an observation because you are doing something that makes sense to me. Physical fitness. 1st. was your cross training 2nd. High altitude riding and 3rd. humidity training... yup, high humidity is a butt kicker.... It became clear to me watching this video.
Really curious what trails you're hitting in PA. Would be happy to show you all the local lines in Wissahickon Park- 25 miles of proper single track gnar within the city limits of a major city. And then you can pop over to Belmont, for tight, twisty turn single track, all in one ride.
Newer subscriber here, your thumbnails and an interest in mtn biking made me click, but your sweet videos got me to sub. One request, when you go with other people, it would be cool to really quickly see what bikes they're riding and get their pros/cons on them. Always curious why people get the bikes they do and what they think, especially when you can see the trails you guys are taking them on...good luck getting the rest of the 50!
BKXC i like your mtb video since 2-3 years but this year wowww history, the community and the ride with the local awesone! Hope you comeback at Quebec City soon!
Brian, Another great ride, how sweet is that. Man you are just seeing epic trail after trail. How great would it be, to be you. DW was pretty good, there was some possible finger crunching to be done. Be safe, have fun & have a great week.
Don’t forget. All the kids who are trying to get a nice mountain bike. Working at a bike shop is a great way. Not only will you learn how to fix and maintain a bike but you will also get some great deals. That’s exactly what I did and got my dream bike this year.
He didn’t have much of a chat about these trails. I don’t think he enjoyed them. Could have been the heat but I think I know why. These trails are 20 min from me and I rarely ride them. There are just too many other great places in the area. He figured it out halfway through his first ride. These trails are steep up and then right back down. He says it at 11:35ish. The descents are fun with lots of ways to play around but they’re over really quick. No gradual climbs back up. ...and BTW I like technical climbs. The rock gardens here aren’t fun to me, lots of sharp or square edge hits. I just feel like they’re ruining my machine. If I want technical and fun I go to Wissahickon. If I want flow I go to White Clay, DE or Fair Hill, MD. Brandywine can be fun if you know it really well but I don’t think it’s a good place if you’re just visiting for a day.
Yeah as a Nor cal rider, I was watching wondering how so many people would request him to ride trails that look like they are in someones backyard lol, looks like some 20 sec descents. My local trails are way better than this, and offer many more types of riding, this place looks flat and rocky, or quick up or down.
White clay or Fair hill if you don't like jumping logs, riding through rock gardens, and technical climbing. BW is certainly not for the faint of heart.
This looks like the trails here in Wisconsin..perhaps a few more rocks...trees,rocks, and tree’s so close to both sides of the path you occasionally need to turn/twist your handlebars back and forth to get through the path. Nice trail-
Lots of ways to make money as a kid. I mowed lawns, raked leaves, shoveled driveways, had 3 paper routes but kids today just ask Mommy and Daddy; that's much easier. Sad to see where things are headed but it's nice to see a young person with some drive for a change. Well done to this young man!
You make it look easy. If your still looking for some good trail riding in Indiana. Brown County State Park will have you covered. Plenty of good ups and downs flow and good technical stuff if your interested.
Im A Fan of Yours i love how you ride jorney sorry for grammar im from Philippines So I Have Learned A Little Bit English So Yeah! Im Supporter From Philippines !!
Wow - great to see the trails I’ve ridden (exclusively) for the past several years showing so great in this video. Good technical climbs/descents. Come back to Delaware and hit White Clay Creek Park next time!
If you’re driving on I-95 just on the Delaware side of the MD-DE border like 1 mile off the 95 exit is Iron Hill. It’s an old Revolutionary War era surface mine. If like whoops stop there- it is super fun. The Iron Hill Loop trail is fun too, but it’s the number of steep fast whoops here that make the place special.
BKXC, I've been really enjoying the content! Thank you! Michaux State Forest has miles and miles of great trails in Pennsylvania, pretty close the Harrisburg, PA.
Nice! Thanks for going to DE (I live in the Philly area and ride at Brandywine) and not just states like CO, UT, VT. Hit up White Clay Creek as well...its just next door. Also hit Raystown in central PA while you are "in the area."
I work in a theatre and we use spray bottles filled with potato vodka to quickly de-funk costumes. It kills the bacteria which eliminates odors, and potto vodka has no odor so your clothes will not smell like alcohol.
Plus one on enjoying the brief history lesson for each state. Really awesome touch. Love the videos, hope to see what you think of the Pittsburgh trail scene (and history). Lots of options, but Frick is the highlight.
Come up to Minnesota and check out Cuyuna State Park. Or stay in the metro area and hit up some of our single track trails like Theodore Wirth, Lebanon Hills and Elm Creek and more... all within 20 minutes of each other.
As a Kiwi, I enjoyed the brief mention of Rotorua (though it would have been nice to get more details about what, specifically, about this place reminded him of Rotorua)
@@TheSVERguy although we dont have marked trails per se but to get to the ones that are the best and the best well known you would have to drive (from where i live) almost half across the country (20-ish kms)
@@timfry5861 No, it was modeled on The Declaration of Arbroath. 1 in 3 of the signatories of The Declaration of Independence were Scottish or of Scottish descentance
Brian, just a thought, but for the hotter places, have you considered a pack hammock to sleep in? Sure proly not in a Wal Mart marking lot, but just about anywhere else, and they feel much cooler than a bed in those situations. Can get mosquito nets for them. Great vid btw, and I enjoy your history lessons. Keep it up.
When you come to Mass ride Lynn Woods (massive area with tons of technical jank), wompatuck state forest (bunch of hidden fun features), Vietnam (probably the jankiest trails around) or, if you’re feeling a bike park, Thunder Mountain!
If you ever find yourself back in Delaware, check out White Clay/Middle Run State Park. Best flow trails in the area hands down, plus they have a huge skills park section. I drive myself over an hour from South Jersey to ride them lol
Good video, Brian. We missed ya here in Roanoke, but you did us right with the Carvins Cove visit and video. I get my workout pretty regularly on Hi-de-Ho: it is a witch of a climb (but that is why I do it!). I loved the quasi-philosophical mid-ride mini-dialogue. I do the same thing in my mind. I figure all sorts of stuff out and then forget it all by the end!!!
Dude you need a bucket or pail, so many uses. Trail I invited you to ride is very familiar to this video minus the rock and little less green but just as dense.
Funny because the trails that I ride when I'm at this park we're not even touched on in this video. This park is absolutely gigantic If you really know it you go through so many different farms and fields and You in a winery at one point.
Ive been marathoning your videos for a week now. Man, you are amazing! I idolize you. Hoping for a bike giveaway eyy. Much love from the Philippines!!!
Awesome ride! Would be nice to say a few words about your bike and your guests’ bikes before these rides. Always interested in hearing peoples testimonials on their equipment. Cheers!
Could you install a roof AC unit and use it in campgrounds with electric. Stay hydrated. Put a few pieces of clothes behind the grill and do the 60 mph dry thing. Microwave drying? The bachelor way? Good luck.
should have hit up white clay creek. 30+ miles of trails with a skills trail and pump track. The downhills are great and they climbs can be brutal but tons of different features.
Entertainment and education all in one. Great video as always, looking forward to the next one. Hopefully you can get somewhere where it's not so hot at night. I'm in NC, so I know the feeling of breathing in all that thick air.
Loving your videos, Brian! This might be a stupid question, but why are you riding the most humid regions in the dead of summer, instead of hitting up the higher elevation rides in the west ? I guess you gotta make it to all 50, but man, that humidity is no joke! I grew up in Chicago, so I know how gross it feels In the summer months... Which is why I moved to Breckenridge, then Bend.
I’m loving this series, but my takeaway is this: if you can, fly and stay in hotels, then shred of you want to get any kind of sleep. The hipstervan is definitely losing stock, but I still want one haha 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Please keep doing the thinking while riding. I (and many other people no doubt) have the same thoughts about politics and dubious rights (and wrongs) but hearing you say it makes me feel good and not alone in my opinion.
I was riding Santa Cruz flow trail recently and heard a guy near me listening to a political podcast on his phone. To each their own, but I like to ride in the woods to get away from that shit being crammed down our throats constantly. 😆
I love Brandywine! But it's a little haul coming from NJ. When you come to NJ you gotta hit out Sourlands Mountain Preserve for some boulders tech downhill ;-)
Idk if you’ve been to Georgia for your 50 state tour but out in Woodstock Georgia there’s a place called blankets creek one of my favorite places to ride when I lived there or mulberry gap out in Elijay Georgia where the down hill tech is amazing
It’s probably too late but if you drive through Philadelphia make a stop at Bicycle Therapy on South Street . I live in Phoenix by I’m from the Philadelphia area . Bicycle Therapy is my favorite bike shop because of the owner Lee .
Also hopefully you can make it to the Pocono Mountain area .for a ride . Kim Thorpe is a good place . Peterson’s Ski & Cycle in Blakeslee , Pa is a good shop to stop in if you need anything. Well Brian wherever you go I hope you enjoy your visit to Pennsylvania.
You’re getting closer to PA, I’m hoping you go to Walking Purchase Park (Sals)! Very similar style to this. I’m bias but I think Sals would be more fun for you
Seems like that would be a huge pain going state to state with every state having different laws about it. I believe that NJ, NH, and VT don’t allow it at all.
Hoping to see you in the Connecticut trails some Connecticut chunk do enjoy seeing the USA what is actually out there hopefully give people an eye opening how no one is stuck where they are
BKXC are you only using the karma grip on the stuntman chest now? no more Evo ss gimbal? judging from the chest adapter setup from last couple of videos. I still use the SS because the 8 black hypersmooth 2.0 still isnt enough, lots of quality loss around the image, it still needs to be mechanically stabilized for proper quality. Although my SS fell once at speed and is now slower to return to center on 2 axis, having a gimbal is still kind of annoying wish digital stabilization was lossless or a product would somehow have it integrated into only a camera box to ride purely chest/camera. Love seeing the jank tech riding!
That kid Oneal was ripping. Love all the green. Keep rocking the 50 state tour.
Hats off to the kid starting his own business at 16, all the best to him.
And riding that Pivot! ooo!
Yup, hard to find kids motivated the way he is.
That kid can shred too!
George Gibson wow! That’s awesome!
George Gibson 700 per lawn! Ooft!😱
Yeah Delaware! Thanks for visiting the First State (and the civics lesson) BKXC, next time you are here you'll have to check out Middle Run and White Clay Creek parks with miles of fun flowy trails.
As a Delaware native, glad you stopped by and enjoyed our trails. If you find yourself back out here, check out White Clay Creek in Newark, DE.

Its rad seeing trails that I have not ridden in close to two decades still riding awesome.
Also that kid rips, get that kid more camera time!
Your guide on this is a ripper, knows all the fun lines.
that cam of yours is incredibly still and clear!

White Clay and Fair Hill way better by far.

White clay or Fair hill if you don't like jumping logs, riding through rock gardens, and technical climbing. BW is certainly not for the faint of heart.

Cool. I think it's been at least 20 years since the last time I rode at Brandywine. Looks like I definitely need to go back.
I swear I pass my history class with BKXC at the start of the videos. Great Video as Always!

Great video of our local Brandywine Mtb single track. Thanks Bkxc!
you left out some of the ups you must of done,
All that chunky rock looked like a pretty fun place to ride. Sorta reminded me of Angwin with the short climbs and descents.
Really hope you ride Wiss (Wissahickon Valley Park) in Philly and throw in Belmont for the full experience!!

Hoping to see you in the Connecticut trails some Connecticut chunk do enjoy seeing the USA what is actually out there hopefully give people an eye opening how no one is stuck where they are
The birds chirping in the intro sound just like my alarm clock. i had to check my phone after like 30 seconds LOL
There are always room for what if questions.
BKXC are you only using the karma grip on the stuntman chest now? no more Evo ss gimbal? judging from the chest adapter setup from last couple of videos.
I still use the SS because the 8 black hypersmooth 2.0 still isnt enough, lots of quality loss around the image, it still needs to be mechanically stabilized for proper quality.
Although my SS fell once at speed and is now slower to return to center on 2 axis, having a gimbal is still kind of annoying wish digital stabilization was lossless or a product would somehow have it integrated into only a camera box to ride purely chest/camera.
Love seeing the jank tech riding!
Awesome video as usual. Looks amazing there.
When you’re in Pennsylvania you gotta hit spring mountain. It’s an abandoned bike park but all the features are still intact!
