Hi Jeff. Glad to see you have a channel going. My kids and I caught your trials show here in Phx last year. They are both budding riders now. Keep up the great work.
I rode 32 miles in Brown County last month. Everything but Schooner (I'm not that good!). You should definitely check out Walnut if you go back. More technical stuff, with some flow mixed in. I grew up in Indianapolis, but only just recently got into MTB now living in Texas. Wish I had been into it growing up, because I would have driven down to Brown County every weekend!
Also, your comment about the dirt jump soil is turning out to be spot on. The new Hobb's hollow flow trail is opening soon and the early sections are fantastic and dry out really quick.
First time I ever rode this trail was the first day I ever clipped in. We rode all the way up to hesitation point. By the time we got up there I was already toast. It was the first major ride of the year for me and my knees were killing me from the new stress on them from clipping in... I had also fallen a million times lol. The trails were really dusty and that first turn going back downhill I slid out and cracked my knee on a rock and snapped my front shifter. I was stuck in the granny gear the whole way back. Literally worst riding experience of my entire life 😂
Jeff Lenosky I laid in bed at night for weeks thinking about my bitter defeat... 3 months later I went back solo. It was the hottest day in Indiana history I think. Something like 112 degrees. I rode all the way up victoriously. I knew I wouldn’t survive the ride back down with the heat so I took the road back to the parking lot.... Don’t do that... I had to be going 40-50 mph on my mtb. Most scared I have ever been on a bike 😂
As long as you dont step on top of them you’ll be fine. I’ve been to BC many times and camped there for 8 years and I’ve seen 1 live copperhead in all that
Awesome video! I'm gonna make it out there one of these days. Nice Anthem too by the way! Is that the 29 inch version? Also what stem length are you running? I'm still using the 100mm factory stem and I feel like I might benefit from a shorter one.
Jeff Lenosky Sweet. Yea I have the 27.5 version too and it's a blast. Think I might try a 70 or 80mm stem and see how that goes. Thanks for the insight!
Hey Jeff! You mentioned the dirt looks sweet for dirt jumps. Here's the best vid I've seen of Hobbs flow trail. Video was about 6 months after construction, so still getting dialed in this year. ua-cam.com/video/kFpvtlYtFxo/v-deo.html
Yeah, hobbs is badass. Brown county is one of those great unknown places for mountain bike. Fast & flowy pretty much describes all of brown county which is how I like it.
Hey, I was there riding with my son today! Wish we would've seen you! BC is such a great system--we are lucky to have it...thanks for coming!

I love walnut. If you’re ever back to BC make sure to hit gnawbone its insane maybe better than hobbs
Great video!
Yeah buddy!! I've been waiting for this since we ran into you in the parking lot!
Furao80 wait for Schooners!

Did you ride 'Bobcat'? Another awesome video as usual! Hope you made a video of 'Schooner Trace'....👍🏻
I just got done with a road trip and the first stop was brown county you should have tried bobcat it's so much fun

Dominic Flores ugh. Sounds like you need a do over.

Did you ride Hobbs Hollow?
Enjoy your videos. Might want to do something about the wind noise, though.
Mark Naughton on it!
You should go the other way. I climbed it 2 times yesterday.
Hi, Did you know there's copper heads and more snakes so you might wanna be careful out there
YIKES!

Natty Bumppo I'm using a 80mm stem on that bike and it's a 27.5 wheel.
Jeff Lenosky Sweet. Yea I have the 27.5 version too and it's a blast. Think I might try a 70 or 80mm stem and see how that goes. Thanks for the insight!
Natty Bumppo I'm sorry. I do have a 70!! Sorry about that!
Now you are going to have to ride the hobbs trail which the connector is at the top at hesitation point
JM Outdoors definitely!!
how do the x fusion forks compared to the other big brands?
Doghead 007 the rough cut HLR dampener works great and it's a real good value!
Fun Ride!!

Obvs, this isn't me
Why didn't you ride Schooner Trace!?!???!?!?
I which I could've ridden with you! Those are my local trails!
Mr.Moonboy that is going to be my next trail boss episode 😱😱😱 The follow along's I just edit myself
Jeff Lenosky ah. Can't wait for that! Wish I could have ridden with you and seen you clear some of the crazy features on Schooner!
HOBBS!!!!!!!!!!!! Video Please!!!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely loved riding Hobbs. We did it on our last day and we were all miserably sore, but it was so fun. The climb out sucks though. Lol.
I don't understand anyone who MTBs without gloves.
I wouldn't trust them!
Haha :D
