    I’ve watched this video three times now. Thanks for the video. I live in Utah and so I need to plan to ride Thunder Mountain Trail. Hopefully late Spring or Summer. It doesn’t look too technical, but of course Yuka flows over the technical challenges, making them look easier than they really are.

    I love this video. I watched it five times. Beautiful location. We named our son Bryce because of the beauty of the area. Also your videos are fun and I love how nice you treat your wife. You make it apparent that you are best friends and enjoy the journey together. Keep up the good work.

    Eric dude! C'mon!! it's amazing how you generate the atmosphere that you want in the video, just with the musical selection, the quote of "Red Dead Redemption" and that song with the Old Wild West style!! That is the best quality of your videos and what i enjoy most!! Chapó!! Greatings from Chile!!

    One of my favorite trails. Last time was all fun till we found a German biker coming down the trail with broken ankle, and foot just hanging from the tendons. 90’f and I rushed 4-5 miles to parking lot, grabbed my cell and called ambulance while my wife watched and care for this fellow biker in so much pain!

I live 4 hours from this trail and my friends and I will drive down in the morning, ride the trail, and then drive home in the same day! It's fun to have those adventures. Next time you are in Utah and you want a trail off the beaten path, ride The Wedge trail in the San Rafael Swell. It's about 1.5 hours outside of Moab.
