    "I get up in the morning and ride my bike because that's what I fucking do."
    Put that on my resume.

    Nice trail. I like that Kurt is bring-back-to-life old trails. Not only are they great, interesting & challenging. But it is like bring back a little piece of history too. Good stuff, Brian ! Thank you for getting video of this type of work from Kurt & friends.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому

      Yeah man, he's doing some awesome work!

    Nice work Brian! So much history in the gold country and most of it is just left out there forgotten. I totally agree with Kurt when he says that Strava, trail forks ect has killed the adventurous spirit of MTB. Plenty of awesome trails off the beaten path, just takes some effort and grit. Oh and Weir is a fucking badass, awesome guy to hang with.

      Trail Peek Ditto. Really enjoyed this video. If Brian could manage to meet up with people working in the industry to do more of these, that would be sweet!

    always think how great it must be to know a trail so well that you know the trail's turns, trees and bushes.... much respect for those who maintain the trails and angry singlespeeder.

      Yeah man, once you ride something a few times you learn it!

    Great video! - and Kurt is right...getting social instead of getting online can do so much more... and the whole story about the area you rode was cool! Thanks for sharing and have a nice day :)

    Fantastic rides with friends. Nice to see the older forgotten trails coming back to life. It's always fun to find new gems and past forgotten ones to boot.

    That's very cool, great way to get in touch with nature and a little history along the way. The heart of what mountain biking is about in my opinion. Trails like these are all we really have around where I grew up. Very cool, thanks Brian.

    • @bkxc

    Amazing trail. Kurt is doing the good work and it's awesome. Old trails have some nice flow and soul to them. Even back then, you could see the imagination and planning to make it efficient and fun. Great video.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому

      Yeah, it's pretty dang cool to bring something like that back to life!

      Haha yeah! Another commenter pointed that out!

  • @CabinetOfCuriosity
    @CabinetOfCuriosity 7 років тому

    Love the trail history and reclamation. The ore rail, footbridge that had been hidden before the landslide. Taking something that existed and bringing it back to life. Also liked your use of captioning for the harder to hear sections.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому

      Thanks Jim! So glad I could salvage those bits of dialogue, they were too good.

  • @neildonovan735

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому

      Thanks man, I'll try to tell more stories like this!

  • @DarrenJamesNI
    @DarrenJamesNI 7 років тому +22

    Caught this last night over on Patreon - Great trail. Was thinking, I know its not always possible and, only adds additional work for you come editing, but the addition of a helmet cam would be good for times that your taking in the scenery. There was a few times in this particular video that you were looking at stuff pointed out by Mr. Angry but, which we didnt get to see it for obvious reasons.. Would add another element to what is already cracking videos and help up really take in all that your seeing.

    • @SGMTB
      @SGMTB 7 років тому

      I completely agree. I'd even prefer just helmet cam. It's mountain biking, it shouldn't feel smooth!

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому +1

      Yeah, I just gotta get the shots! Never going for the helmet cam, don't need a hunk of metal going through my head when I need it most.

    @nofrontbrakes 7 років тому

    Those history tidbits made the video! I like that even though the trail seemed nice and loose, it didn't look like there was any sketchy off-camber parts to go sliding down the mountain on.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому +1

      Very cool to have such a history buff/weather man along for the ride!

    Another great video Brian, I listened to the podcast with Kurt concerning the Downieville trail rehabilitation. I used to do the same type of thing in NV on motos, the interview and your video is inspiring me to start again on MTBs! Thanks again for another great NorCal video!

    Holy Smokes!!!! Dude that trail is sick and to be able to ride with one of the OGs of MTBing. Man you just made my week!!! What you able to do, trails to ride and people to ride with this pass year has been pretty RAD!! You are a defiant inspiration and someone who should have a lot more followers here. I truly appreciate all the content you have put out since I started following when you were at 3K (IBIS Ripley Video). Congrats on making it work, some day I'll catch you on a trail or plan something when I go back CA (My Real Home) and visit. Keep pushing and bring the awesome content to life!! And of course LIVE-LIFE-LOUD!!!!

      Yeah, I don't get many rides anymore where I can JUST ride naked!

    @radek5690 7 років тому

    Wow! What a ride. I think Mark Weir won a race in Downieville. He came in 15th at the top and blazed down the hill to take the win. That dude is BA! Thanks for the video. Keep it up.

    Very cool video you gimbal dork!🤣
    Back when I was riding Massachusetts in the late 80s we had a bunch of trails that were old horse paths, railroad grades and dried up streams that we rode, and took care of. The local towns all started spending tax dollars to build paved bike paths, but they were boring and controversial... we stuck to the old trails and had a great time. This video really brought back those days.

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому

    If I went to the trouble of building trails ! I'd expect every one to ride them and wouldn't think that I have exclusive rights to anything on public land . The adventure now starts with technology, then follows the discovery. My moto is the Trail is Hidden until Ridden !!! No one has to miss out on the best journey thanks to Strava Trail Forks !

    Long time Brian! I love this video format with the text overlay and mixing in videolog style format with trail riding. Very interesting and entertaining beyond just your standard trail video. Besides that, it's so cool that Kurt has uncovered a lost trail in those hills. Downieville and the surrounding old gold hills must be crisscrossed with them. Have you ridden the Big Boulder trail yet in D'ville? That's one epic ride, including the long fire road climbs and epic views at the top before you descend! Keep up the great work Brian! 🤘

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому +1

    Another day, another BKXC video.
    4:28 - Your idea of XC is the same as mine. I'm beginning to think that you and I are the same person, Brian. 😂
    6:08 - Yeah, now THAT'S the way to finish off a climb!
    11:50 - Now THAT'S a TREE!
    11:58 - Yup, it's that time of year. The rain stops and the dirt dries up. No more hero dirt for you!
    I learned a new term, today. "Gimbal Dork". Looking forward to being one myself.
    I love the idea of going out to discover new trails. I really need to do that. I've been riding trails that have been well used. Time to go out and find some of my own. Thanks for this lesson, Brian! Stay upright and keep the rubber side down.

    Brian - Great video! Makes me want to get the heck out of Houston and find a mountain to find some new (old) trails. The dude on the steel hardtail was cool, old school mountain biking. I ride a hardtail, becuase thats all you need here, but to see that guy doing it there... skills have to be sharp. Props.

  • @PHAM_mtb
    @PHAM_mtb 7 років тому +2

    Is that still -0.5 exposure compensation? It looks more like -1.5 or even less. Are you changing that during the riding dependant on how light it is?

    • @tp81801
      @tp81801 7 років тому

      I think he uses protune

    • @TrailPeek
      @TrailPeek 7 років тому

      Protune is like RAW photo file for GoPro video. It leaves all the footage as shot and applies no filters or color correction, which you can do on the computer later. Makes for much higher quality footage in the end.

    • @tp81801
      @tp81801 7 років тому

      Ah thanks I guess I misunderstood what protune was then. I might have to try using it now haha

    • @bkxc

      -1 exposure compensation at the moment

    • @bbarker5766
      @bbarker5766 7 років тому

      This is something I need to learn. I was a semi-pro photographer but never made the jump to video. Still love shooting races and sports but my son just got a camera that he is going to use for his rides and that got me looking into getting one myself. Can't we just ride?? Lol

    While I haven't watched all of your videos, this is the best to date. I have to say I do not agree with Kurt's feelings on Trailforks, MTBproject, and Strava (it has made it easier to travel and check out cool new spots on your schedule with the apps) I do really really admire his work on bringing trails back. Great episode!

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому

      Thanks so much man! I think there is definitely a balance with the modern tools, I love them. But I think there's stuff out there just waiting to be discovered and you need to poke around to find it.

    Also, glad to see I am not the not the only one who struggled on the fire road climb up Saddleback. That really is a brute of a climb: www.strava.com/segments/10951075

    Finally hung it up.
    Literally crashed and fractuted my neck and was almost paralyzed.
    Air lifted, 10 days in the hospital and two major and risky surgeries.
    Successful surgeries and I'm walking. But want to grow old w/o being in a wheelchair.
    Currently not working and recovering.

    The adventure rides are the best. Going somewhere you've never been, half fearful of what awaits down trail. I prefer earning those experience points in real life over the digital ones. 👍

    wow. so basically you rode to where the shuttle would have driven you? hardcore. I also noticed that you were there at the same time that another youtuber was there... Brad from TrailRecon. his was the gunmetal jeep parked at yuba expeditions. I met him there a couple of Friday's ago. I guess I missed you. I'll be there on the 15th again with some new friends. hooked on that place now!

    • @bkxc
      @bkxc  7 років тому

      A different part of the area from where the shuttle would drop us, but maybe the same amount of climbing! Oh wow, cool about TrailRecon!
