Hey Seth! I love down in Key Biscayne and am taking a trip this weekend to Markham this Sunday. In Key Biscayne there is a local trailhead. I've seen that you have gone to Amelia and other trails and hope that sometime you could head down and try the different trails. Hope to see you there sometime!!!
I've been to Virginia Key plenty of times, but obviously not as much as the others since Biscane is a little further. That trail has some really fun sections, and even a few obstacles that top the others. I'll be down there again for sure!
Love riding at Markham. Thanks for the tacos tip. The red tacos sign on SR-84 can be found next to Road Hawgs bar, near Dunkin Donuts between 136th and Flamingo. It's called Agave Azul. We now "go there every single time," too.
Great video and all.. Like I´m super jealous about those trails... But for some reason 3:23 was the highlight for me, that coke looks so freakin´ refreshing haha :D
What sets Seth apart from other bikers on youtube is, it's not about the upgrade for Seth, it's about his skills. Give Seth a Diamond back or some other Walmart bike with 30mm steel stanchions and coil spring and he would ride it like it's a million dollar bike while other UA-camrs are all about, get this Yeti, or this Santa Cruz for a billion dollars with all the horns and whistles or the latest Pike fork and that's exactly what's going to transform your riding. And "If you ain't got all these expensive stuff, you are a nobody!", that's their logic. Seth would load a wet sand in a cheap bike to make it as heavy as possible and bunnyhop that son m bitch like a 10k carbon bike while other UA-camrs make riding only imaginable for some fat nerdy silicon valley IT specialist with a 6 figure salary who only poses with his shiny machine he can't even ride for shit. He just rolls it around to show hey! "I earn 200k a year, and I can afford all these. Ride on Seth, don't you dare change.
It's funny looking back at Seth, pre diamondback, pre so many things. Here in 2024 it's odd seeing him with no kids, no grey hair, and no full custom ti mountain bike...
Got to ride this place because my folks live in Sunrise, never imagined having that much fun on trails in South Florida and Bikebox has some awesome bikes to rent.
And for all this shit we talk about conservatives bikes and old school geometry... you would take that bike down whistler's a line five years ago happily
Not sure if it was open when you rode it but Gun Range loop is freaky, not least because of the noise from the gun range right next to it. It's hard enough to ride a black diamond loop without having to worry about some gun nut going postal and blasting in all directions
Shadowarz Good point, I had it up there but ended up taking it down in favor of posting tightly edited videos. Here ua-cam.com/video/f44bouaieuY/v-deo.html is a link to a video on my other channel from the same day. Glad you enjoy it!
Pretty cool to see that place...I use to ride Markham many-many years ago. It looks to have improved tremendously, considering how poorly maintained it was (18 years ago-lol). Thanks for sharing!
I see that you never reviewed the Amelia MTB trails. I think you should come back to Miami and ride that trail once you get better. It has changed alot, and has been maintained well.
I've ridden there. I spent a week in fort Lauderdale for work and Markham park is nice. you do need some riding experience as some of the sections I was hesitant to ride on. fort Lauderdale beach is a nice place to cruise around on your mountain bike also.
Nice video but please be sure to mention that the trails are 100% volunteer built and that all are welcome to volunteer. If you like the trials, be part of them.
Michael Todd DeLoach Thanks, I may do a bike check video one of these days. It's actually a pretty ordinary bike, but with all different parts than it came with. It's a Trek 4-Series frame with 26" wheels. I have a Race Face single chainring, Race Face cranks, and Forté Terramax wheels wrapped in Maxxis Holy Rollers. I also run a DNM Dropper seat post to change the height on the fly, and a RockShox Recon suspension fork. You may laugh when I tell you I'm running a Shimano Altus Derailleur with a 7-Speed cassette, both under $20. To keep the chain from popping off when things get hairy, I run a Bionicon C-Guide Eco chain guide. Bars are Ritchey, with lock-on grips by Origin8.

Apparently we have cottonmouths, rattlesnakes, copperheads, never seen one and probably never will. But critters can spawn and spread quickly here so next few years maybe different. IMO, when biking at markham or any dense trail the biggest threat is mosquitoes. Never take a break for more than a minute on a trail. And spider webs spawn over night so don't be the first to ride through one.
Cottonmouths... that was the one I was trying to think of. Those are pretty bad. I'm from Mn. originally, so I understand mosquitos. It was our state bird. lol
So this is how awkward Seth sounds like😂
He’s improved majorly over the years
100mm stem and 550mm bars that is the old seth
Lol was a good laugh to come back and watch this 5 years later.
You should stick some wider bars on that Trek!
Nathandabest08 check out Markham park mountain bike fall 2017🤓
Ya it looks like a road bike
😂
And a short stem
You should head over to Markham park, this is how my morning started.
*crashes
Lol
just went to Markham for the first time and ive lived 15 min away for 16 years. Been binge watching MTB vids and getting into the hobby. Thanks Seth!
Remembering the old seth
Before the wonderful Gimbal
Oh how we’ve grown 😂
You’ve got to be honest most of the people watching this is from like 2018-2020
Anyone watching 2019???
Λαμπρος Ταμβακης going for the first time today!
Rockie lol. He's tight now though, the boy put in some real work, Damn !
Λαμπρος Ταμβακης nah 2020
Εννοειτε και 2020 καραντινα
2020. I love Seth in miami 😂not really a mtb fan but he did soo much different stuff on bikes in miami.

I used to ride here when I lived in Miami 95'-97'. Still own the GT Zaskar I used.
That ending was adorable. You put a lot of time into this, thank you!

hahaha i love the awkward Seth voice and the fact that he mentions Jedi Pod Racing!
THAT STEM IS SO LONG OMG
My chain dropped at 1:37, sliced up my knee on the front sprocket.
Great video and all.. Like I´m super jealous about those trails... But for some reason 3:23 was the highlight for me, that coke looks so freakin´ refreshing haha :D
I just rode at Markham park for the first time and ate at the same place. Thanks Seth!
That trail looks awesome!
Seth sounds so depressed. lol
Crazy how far he got with the channel now in 2024
Happy new day eve anyone still see his old video
And you

2019 anyone
2020 btw
@@bluky0190 2020 but in the time that all the parks are closed btw
Hi Seth, I am watching every vid oldest to newest. Also liking every video
Bro this taco place is sooooo gooood
That Taco place was heaven. Rode Markham all day yesterday then wen there to crush food. Good recommendation 🙌🏽🙌🏽
That camera angle is killing me. Please tilt it up by a lot. Otherwise its a legit review. Best park I've been to in Florida so far.
Not a bad looking park, but thank God you moved to Asheville.
Nice video. Where is the rest? Didn't see it on your channel.

Thanks. Nice channel btw. Great editing and funny commentary.
Seth with a 90 mm stem 650 mm bars and 100% cynicism is hilarious.
markham park mountain bike trails, I was wondering if they do MTB RENTALS. looking to go with some friends today, thanks
Pretty cool to see that place...I use to ride Markham many-many years ago. It looks to have improved tremendously, considering how poorly maintained it was (18 years ago-lol). Thanks for sharing!
Santos in Ocala and San felasco in Gainesville are awesome trails.
Just curious, what happened on that jump to cause you to wreck? Nice video.
I see that you never reviewed the Amelia MTB trails. I think you should come back to Miami and ride that trail once you get better. It has changed alot, and has been maintained well.
do some more videos like this
it's awesome!!!!!!
Don`t look at my bad english :-)
you're one of my favourite youtubers and one of the best mtbers
That was pretty fun to watch again and know what you are doing now! You are killing it now even more!!! Live-Life-Loud, Bro.
I've ridden there. I spent a week in fort Lauderdale for work and Markham park is nice. you do need some riding experience as some of the sections I was hesitant to ride on. fort Lauderdale beach is a nice place to cruise around on your mountain bike also.

I never knew there were such good trails and good places to eat. keep it up!
Seth Needs to come down a do an update of the review!!!
Oi oi oi that stem makes me cringe 🤣 2020
i know this is your old trek. but your stem is huge and your bars are tiny!
Are there any bike rentals near Markham Part with decent MTB ???
nice... what bike do you ride? specs?

haha sucker i live so close to markham i can walk to it
you didn't sound as happy as you do in other vids is it because of the crash
hey seth do you have a front brake?? although you have a nc bike
Why is there no front brake?
3:13 asmr ?
Those bars are scary narrow.
This is VERY special... "special"
First Steady Spin reference!
I'll gonna miss California's trails
Ugh long stems make me cringe
Who else hates seeing the long stem
That was awesome!! I am very new to mountain biking and have only done city streets so far in north Florida. That looks like lots of fun tho.
Oh wow, you actually have a lot of really good trails up there. People keep telling me to check out Ocala.
Jim knight I've ridden Mala compra and Graham swamp up there. Both were pretty challenging for an intermediate like myself.
wiped out at the same place in the begging
The length of that head tube 😭
William the butchers son productions you mean stem?
@@mtbtuber754 He definitely does.
Classic blink and you miss it humor
Seth bring back the trek for a video
I just rode markham today so fun
please ride graham swamp trail!
Oh lord this is different
before the gray hair..
I miss you in fl bro
Go to Canada
so its free?
You must pay an anually fee for about $25 and you must pay for park entry, but during quarantine the park entry is free
Nice review. Are there alligators to look out for?
I live in Colorado and we have to be aware of rattlesnakes. Seems like each area has their own wild animal to avoid.
I think running into a snake would be more likely and dangerous than an alligator in markham.
What kind of snakes do you need to watch for?
Apparently we have cottonmouths, rattlesnakes, copperheads, never seen one and probably never will. But critters can spawn and spread quickly here so next few years maybe different. IMO, when biking at markham or any dense trail the biggest threat is mosquitoes. Never take a break for more than a minute on a trail.

Wow your vids have come a long way Seth!
