I was riding on a customized TNGNT Ski Bike. Used their frame kit and added my mountain biking parts to it.
Far removed from the desert southwest, I now live where we get a lot of snow. But there is something magical about snow up in the pine of New Mexico. The last time I was able to make it out that way was over a decade ago. On the last day there while looking out a big window at the capitan mountains out in the distance, I quietly wept (but no one was around to see me so it was ok🤣) I dont understand how time goes by so fast! May God bless you and yours.
Looks like a great time! I need to try it. Another great video Dave!!
You would be hooked bro! You can rent it on base!
A fantastic video Dave, great shots and an adventure with the Skibike, that's what I like. I will definitely do another round with the Skibike this year. Great riding and the food at the end looked really tasty. Ride on and have a great Sunday mate🤙
Ski biking is addicting. I was stoked when it started snowing up in the mountains especially in New Mexico where it’s rare. Looking forward to your ski biking vid! Thanks for the comment.
This is dope sir!!!
Yeah man ❤
Finally it snowed here in New Mexico lol
I saw you man e and my buddy were yelling on the chair lift
You look so comfortable. Well done as usual on the edits. Always a great story teller. Happy Holidays.
Probably because it was on a beginners slope ☺️ but I appreciate it! Hope you have a great and relaxing holiday. Thank you brother!
Hi Dave ! Nice to see that you didn't give up on ski biking. Bet that its not allowed at White Sands. Been cold here in the Springs, hardly any snow. I know your enjoying those southern NM temps ! Nice day at Ski Apache Right On Man !!!
Hey Bruce! I was hooked on ski biking last year and still hooked this year. Unfortunately I’ve been very busy working so my biking trips this year were very limited. Wish I can go out more. Just snowed yesterday so I might be going back again this weekend. Good to hear from you!
what brand is your ski bike? i really like the snogo ones but they’re really expensive
It’s TNGNT brand. The snogo are easier to ride. I heard good things about them.
Haha gotta get the tickets in town at the ski shop. Way quicker and easier than waiting in that god awful line at the bottom of the lift
I wish bro! They were only selling tickets at the ski resort. Eventually they will start selling online too 🤞🏼
@@DavePFilms Lol they've been saying that for years. At least since 2017 when I first went. They sell tickets at their Ski Apache ski shop on Mechem down in town, locals tip!
@@8rett I appreciate that intel. I need to get it through them next time. Thanks!
Hi Dave, fantastic video!!! Do you know until when the resort is open? I´m planning a trip in a couple of weeks but not sure if at the end of this month it will be open and also not sure if this month is a good time to go. One of my dreams is to see the snow!! Do they rent all the equipment or should I buy something? Thank you so much!
Sorry for the really late reply. They usually close around March -April timeframe.
They have snowboards and skis to rent. No ski bikes tho.
What is the bike ?
TNGNT bike carve. I just bought the frame with skis then added my own mtb parts.
