Welcome to the Gateway to the @OzTrailsNWA . The top of All American Trail sets the stage for an incredible mountain bike experience. Join special guest @bkxc and I as we roll through and break down this rad section of trail!
Want to see more of these trail overviews? Well, please let us know in the comments.
Follow along behind the scenes on Instagram for even more insight to the OZ Trails: therichdrew...

Accessed just north of Lawrence Plaza, this section of All American is rideable for almost any skill level. You'll encounter a few rock berms early on and exercising a bit of caution on those will keep that smile on your face. Although All American extends all the way into Slaughter Pen Phase I, this particular section is roughly a mile and serves as a microcosm of what's to come!
From fast, rolling flow, to rock and wood "skinnies," All American gives riders a great taste of the type of features they'll experience all over the land of OZ.
Although rideable the majority of the time, be prepared to bypass some or all of this one after a heavy rain and be prepared for the tight switchbacks towards the end. Once you reach this point, there's a good chance you'll notice a solid group of people "sessiong" the last set of features. This is one of my favorite places to spend time! It's just so cool to see the different levels of riders and to watch as the progression happens right before your eyes! Be sure to stay clear of the paved trail and keep your eyes up for approaching riders.
Special thanks to Brian Kennedy for hanging out and giving his insight into what being the MTB Capital of the World is all about. Stay tuned for more OZ Trail overviews coming soon!

This came out great! This trail deserves all the hype. Fun for the whole family!
Thanks for guest starring fella!! Sorry it took two days to shoot, you're just too darn popular ;)
You do the wing man thing well .
Brian Kennedy. Come home Brian . 🇮🇪
Hopefully you got some subscribers! 😂
The BKXC intro was hilarious. Great walk through of All American...makes me want to get back there soon. I'll have to try the BBQ there, but there's nothing better than brisket from Hutchins here in DFW; so if it is better...I will be moving to Bentonville :D.
Haha, Hutchins certainly is good. Wrights is legit though.
Cool trail . Thank for teaching
Glad you enjoyed it
This trailer is 🔥🔥🔥
Heck yeah, been waiting on this one! Love this trail as it's the first trail I take my friends too when they visit from out of town. Such an iconic trail! Great tour as usual Rich!
It really is such an awesome trail to take visitors on! I love it when people are just blown away by how rad it is and in your mind you’re thinking “oh just wait “
Thanks, Rich - I really appreciate the play-by-play of All American. I'm an intermediate rider from east coast getting to B-ville a few months from now for 2-night, 1-day stop, to experience the myriad of trails to best of my ability and soak up the vibe. As I've only got one day, i'm searching for how to map out the best experience. I'll have to rent gear as well and will be solo and with so many choices of rental shops, bikes to choose (should i try e-bike for first time?), etc. I want to have at least half a plan so as not to miss the must do trails, bbq, burger, or pedaler's wood-fire pizza. I hope to get coaching to increase skills to at least be able to make small gaps and drops over 2 feet - i don't have that confidence yet.
Love All American! And I love Wright's too 😂 great video Rich! & it's been cool seeing Brian enjoying the trails so much.
Such a great trail! So cool to see so many different types of riders hitting it! He’s been having fun!
There are a few channels that need extra subscribe buttons.... this is one of those channels!
That’s a really cool thing to say Tanner!! Thanks man 👊🏻
I just visited Bentonville in late March and....wow it was awesome to see all the different level of riders sharing this trail and all having a great time!
It's one of the coolest spots around!
Quality content, great review, awesome hosts, awesome editing.
Thanks Albert!! I appreciate that 👊🏻
Hey Rich, Bentonville looks so cool. Great chemistry between you and BKXC... it was a very entertaining watch. Keep up the good work.
Appreciate it! So fun to work with him!
Awesome video! Both of you riding together gets us beautiful images!! Thank you!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Rich, coolest dude out in Arkansas
Haha, thanks Milo 👊🏻
Hey Rich, good call on Wright's BBQ. That brisket was some of the best I have had.
My 13 year old daughter and I ran into you a few times today near All American and Choo Choo. She just started riding a bike 4 months and loves rolling over bigger jumps. She tried to show off in front of you and fell over on the first jump on Choo Choo. She was so embarrassed it was hilarious.
Next time we're in town I think we'll be getting some lessons or joining a clinic if one is going on.
Love the videos
Hey Mike! How did I miss her falling over?! I hope she was ok. Looking forward to seeing you both in a clinic soon.
@@richdrewtherideseries yeah she was alright. She just misjudged how much speed she needed to get over the first jump. Kinda lost her balance and slowly rolled off the side. She was just embarrassed, she'll be glad to know you didn't see 🤙🏻
Rich, these videos with BKXC and you should earn both of you the "2021 UA-camr Collaboration Of The Year Award". ONLY thing better was if your brother Rob was in them too! Great work.
Thank you!! Trying to get Rob more involved, stay tuned
The Rich/Brian collaborations have been great. Nice work mixing in the riding tips into the trail overviews. I hope other towns will follow the Bentonville lead.
I hope so too!
T minus 1 week to I will be on this trail and many more! Thanks for all the videos, it has help us plan our trip!!
Great to hear! Hope to run into you on the trails!
Thanks for the video. It has been fun to see you alongside BKXC the past few weeks. We were up there a couple weeks ago and will be back end of the month for my son's birthday. Can't wait to do some more sessioning on All American!
You are very welcome! It's been so fun riding with him these past few weeks. Hope to see you on the trails when you get back!
You went next level with the color coordination
Oh yeah! Purely accidental
Loved the outro- made me laugh!😆
Me too!
I rode the s out of those trails on my gravel bike all January. I never made a clean turn on those rock berms, but started to really nail the lower flow down. Thanks for showing us how it's done!
you're a madman Tim!! Slaying it on the gravel bike is next level!
Hello again Mr. Rich! I’m going to ride with you on next friday!!! Yes it is still the same person who was going to ride with you a couple weeks ago.
Great vid as always. June trip can't get here fast enough.
can't wait Harry!! Gonna be so fun!
Amazing video as usual!!!
Thanks dude!!
Tried getting the family to move, I am out numbered...:( Nice vid man...and BKXC
Keep working on them!!
Cool video
Thanks Liam 👊🏻
Rich I just arrived Sunday and all the trails are amazing. I saw your Van parked down by Master Piece. The snow yesterday put a damper on things though. Great videos!!!
Hope you've been having a blast Jamie!
I hope I can visit all American trails this coming end of the month
That would be awesome!
Gotta admit, watching your video's, and Brian's video's the past month, have convinced me that Bentonville needs to be my MTB destination trip this year. It was going to be Asheville, but I need to get tires on the ground down there. It's a long drive from PA and I need to somehow convince my girlfriend that she'll have fun in Arkansas, even though she really won't be there to ride...lol
She will LOVE AR, guaranteed! It's a super cool place, even if you don't ride. Although, I think she'd get into it pretty quickly.
Funny, I actually used that exact tool stand to straighten my bars when I was there in January
That is funny! It’s a great spot for one. Hope you had a great trip 👊🏻
We met you the day you were there and I later that day broke my ankle 🙄
That's a bummer Sebastien. Heal up!
That’s was nice BKXC Brian is on OZ trails, he always has bike vlog here in the bayarea 👍🚵🏻♂️
Oh yeah! So cool to have him here!
“Maybe we can get you some followers” lol
Brian proceeds to have 10 times as many subs😂
Pretty sure that was said with a 😉
@@okayatbikes1909 Yep, I was laughing at the joke, not the literal comment :)
it really sounded like he really didn't know
Great video! It made me look twice at first, since you guys were dressed alike. I thought your were riding with yourself!
haha, I didn't even realize it until I watched the video
Moving there missed 2 places by a day. I will find one soon I am sure
Heck yeah. That’s awesome! You’re gonna love it here!
Nothing like watching other people ride bikes!
It’s pretty cool I guess 😉
Hey rich! You should do a tour of your van that would be dope!
I could certainly do that, but there isn’t much to show 🤷🏻♂️. It isn’t built out inside, just a simple deck to hold some bikes.
Just down there a few weeks ago on Easter break. Second time in the last 2 years. I'm up near St.Louis and will be coming down at least one more time this summer. You need to go do a video on Shepard Mountain in Ironton MO.
I've heard Shepard is legit, hope to get there soon.
Best BBQ is from KC, broseph!
Y’all do have some dang good BBQ up there!!
@@richdrewtherideseries as a Kansas Citian? I love BBQ and am proud of what we have to offer. But, I ate some brisket at Wrights a couple of weeks ago and was VERY impressed! Thanks, Rich for all you do!
Nice brothers
Thank you!
Just visited the last couple days! Saw you ride by with a class you were sesh’n the jump spot by crystal bridges.. think u got me sold! Lookin to move from Texas in the next couple months
Keep up the content!
DO IT!!!
Great video. drop your exposure on your camera, one or two notches, to get better contrast on the trails
Thanks for the tip
From the last time I visited I'm starting to agree with the "MTB Capital of the World" thing a bit more. NONE of the trails in Bentonville are even close to the best trails in the world, but the shear number of amazing trails can't be beat (well, OK. BC is still better). As far as towns with trails built INTO the town, it's the best place I've been to.
I’d agree with you!
I think that's completely fair to say. "Hey, what do you guys have that's like The Whole Enchilada in Moab? Uhh...nothing. But I will say, I got a sneak peek ride in at the brand new trails in Devil's Den State Park last weekend that haven't opened yet, and there is some rock work there that is second to no one. I'm saying right now, it's world class, and it will leave a lasting impression.
The collective offerings we have, is starting to rival a lot of the most well known spots. Single trails...nope, and that will likely never happen, because of the elevation situation. But...you can drive a long way from here, and not get the variety and overall experience that you will get here in Northwest Arkansas.
Get Bkxc some "subscribers" lmfao this dude has em all
You never know Tristan...I may have gotten him a couple ;)
@@richdrewtherideseries 😁 good man💪💪😁
This was a joke right.. like he didn't know who Brian was. 😂
But the way Brian is smiling maybe he doesn't. 😂😂😂😂
It was a joke
How are you liking the Fezzari Delano Peak?
LOVING it!! Rad bike for sure!
I’m going to be in Bentonville riding for 6 wks. Who wants to ride??!
Remember that time you tried to pretend Texas had better barbecue than Kansas City?!
I did no such thing ;)
