If you only have time to do one ride in Arkansas, this is it. Mt. Nebo is the TOTAL PACKAGE of amazing views, tough tech, big features, amazing flow and everything else we love about mountain biking.

This will always be a memorable ride. Had such a good time riding with you & Sarah.
Kinda sus
I think he meant "with you and Sarah" LMFAO, you better come back and edit this Terry
I new I wasn’t the only one thinking that 😂
lmaooo
😂😂
This looks like a truly epic trail system. Hats off to Arkansas on embracing MTB!
Wow. I'm clenching my desk chair thinking about those ledges and drop offs. Great video. Glad you finally did Mt Nebo!
Arkansas Native here. Mt. Nebo and Northwoods Trails are definitely my favorite.love the videos.
I am 10 minutes in and this ride is terrifying to me.
Thank you for these videos. Your willingness to tell us you aren't comfortable with a certain situation you ride into is an inspiration. It would be easy to edit those parts out but you push through and speak the truth. Definitely helps me get back into some some sense of normal riding after a serious health issue. Keep being you and keep posting the videos.
So glad Arkansas is getting attention for all the beautiful trails we have here!! I’ve lived here all my life and the trails really are amazing
Terry’s riding is always strong and smooth, doesn’t matter whether it’s MTB in Oz, or a track bike in Brooklyn!
People you HAVE to check out Terry B's channel. He rides ALL the bikes and rides them well! Nice video Brian.
I'm from Russellville (now live in NWA) and I didn't know Mt Nebo had such awesome trails. Also la Plaza Mexicana is my grandparents store, so it was a nice surprise to see it on here. I'll share with them and let them know you liked the food! Love your channel by the way!
There are somewhat new Ivan, i believe the Monument Trails at Mt. Nebo were initiated in early 2019, i forget the name of the Company that built them.
@@charliebowden6779 yeah, I had never heard of them until recently. Thanks for the info. I'll definitely have to check them out soon
@@ivangomez4339 hope your Grands store gets lots of traffic from mtn. bikers. I am local and while i was up there riding i have met other bike riders from several states who came here just to ride the Nebo trails.
You're makin' my hands sweaty with all that exposure! Fantastic riding.
Never considered Arkansas as a vacation destination but it's on the list now... Fun
Every video of you in Arkansas makes me drop my jaw. Those trails they all look amazing and fun and deserve to be ridden
Man. You gotta love when a city understands what building trails can do for the local economy and community! Love it.
This is about 100 miles from Bentonville. It's the "state" getting onboard. But did start in NWA.
There is much more to come. :-)
@@timm6876 That's AMAZING! Love it!
@@CaliradoKid Living here, I know enough people that are plugged in enough that I get a bit of info here and there, and what I have been told is a level up. Now does that actually happen??? And when???
Yeah, now trying to envision such a piece of art being constructed in CA? I can only wish.
@@wg2060 Oh man. I'm lobbying for Brian to get Seth involved. Would be SUPER SICK if Seth's next bike park was in our backyard. If they could go in on an airbnb and make a park close by that would be something to behold.
dude you ride with a playful confidence that can only be achieved by years of riding. some of the best videos I've seen. thank you for showing us trails like this.
That's got to be one of the sickest trails I've seen! Damn, talk about tech with exposure, you all did a great job riding!
So glad you were tempted to go to Nebo. This is my favorite place to camp with my kids and ride. There’s a lot of diversity and enough trails for most levels of rider to keep everyone smiling.
Man I hope it’s not a pain in the butt for you to do these audio connected videos. They’re so good! It’s so nice to hear the other riders!
Two things from me....1. So cool to see you taking more chances and hitting some of the jumps...2. it is amazing the difference with the 2nd mic...it just so much better. I expect more channels to start going this lol.
Finish on a downhill has been my philosophy/strategy for 40 years of mtbing!
Meeting husband down there in 5 days....can't wait!
That’s the first trail that I have seen that makes me want to ride Arkansas
I live about an hour from Nebo and in my opinion its the best trail system in AR. It has nice cabins, camp grounds, miles of hiking trail. I have several videos on my channel.
I just moved to Petit Jean mountain from Houston, TX. Someone in Conway suggested I check out Mount Nebo and that’s how I found this awesome video. Now I’m heading up with my bike!
Great video. Great chemistry with Terry. I’m really enjoying this Arkansas residency. Keep up the great video and storytelling
I'm just starting with MTB and it's amazing to see you having so much fun on the Trail. Kinda of scary when you meet walkers onit though. You really have an amazing outdoor in the US
Lots of man screams on this ride. Super impressed with the trails in Arkansas.
It feels like twenty minutes of odd laughter
What a trail system! Watched from beginning to end. 🤌
ShEeSh
Come on down! Oz would love to host you and your family!
So far, you haven't seen the brand new stuff at Devil's Den state park that has some rock work and a ride around behind a waterfall, that is world class rock work. I'm REALLY hoping he got to go ride it while the dogwoods and redbuds were in bloom. You also haven't seen the Great Passion Play trails, and I'm hoping he got footage of that during the enduro race they had there. And...there's also Lake Leatherwood in Eureka Springs that is just 5 minutes from Great Passion Play.
And...that's not even taking into account the new Pinnacle Mountain trail system in Little Rock, which more than one Pro who has ridden just about everything in Arkansas, says is the best system in the state.
People laugh at Arkansas for a lot of things, which is fine and deserved on some level when you land in the bottom three in education perennially, but the people are extremely friendly, it's gorgeous here, and our State Parks are amazing! One thing is for sure, you cannot laugh at Arkansas for its mountain biking scene. It is BLOWING UP big time!!
Yeah very underrated state for it's natural beauty and recreational/fun offerings. But it is a damn shame the state is ruined by ignorance and trash people, truly one of the dumbest, most backasswards places in america
stop riding up the edge ya freakin me out man 😳😁 exposure to the edge was for sure scary looking.
i grew up on mt. Nebo and have lived all my 31 years here. been to over 40 states and always ready to get back home to my mountain.
That's so dope Terry B was able to join you! Getting some fresh air from the concrete jungle!
I like having the mic on your guide. It pulls me further into the journey you’re on. Thanks for your great work Brian!
Watching your videos give me mad confidence. I'm 6 months into having my Giant Talon 1 29" and I love it. I've been doing a lot of street riding with it but recently got onto some trails and let me tell you, it's fun but the inclines are kicking my butt. Hopefully I can manage those inclines soon.
What you do doesn't seem humbly possible. From someone who could never do it, its a pleasure to ride along.
Man that looked like a great ride! The scenery was epic! I can tell you love what you do by the bursts of laughter while you're shredding!!
I normally skip a minute or two, this one was so good I watched it twice! Amazing trails in Arkansas. Amazing video.
wow... can't say that i've ever ridden a trail that goes through a waterfall! #dope
I grew up on Mt. Nebo. Can't believe it is now covered with awesome mountain bike trails! I need to go visit home!
TERRY B!!! REPRESENTING ALL FIXED GEAR RIDERS OUT THERE ON THE TRAILS!!!
You can pretty much watch his videos 2x at least, first watching the trail ahead and enjoying the speed and technicals and second, just watching the view around 😃
terry looks like a kid in a candy store, trying random lines and powering up those climbs ahaha
Nice duster pic fam
I grew up 30 minutes from here. This was one of my favorite mountains to ride... caught my 2nd highest speed on a mountain bike there at 52mph.... we used to ride up from bottom of mountain to warm up
I love my NW Washington trails and dirt but, dang. Those trails look super sick. I love the rock trails there.
Love the series on the trails in Arkansas. That's my home and I am fairly new into MTB riding. Headed to Nebo this weekend!
That place is incredible. Didn't mind at all when the audio went out for a bit, the wind noise was ok for that part. 👍
Yeah I liked it
If you ever travel to Wisconsin go to Levis Trow Mound! I swear by it, it is the best to mountain bike on!
Nooo...Levis is terrible! We wouldn’t want to attract crowds of people there for nothing.
I love it there. But I also don't get to explore too many trails so I don't have too much to compare to.
@@ericasickinger1546 : i was just kidding-suggesting we should keep our local gem secret.
That was awesome! Thanks for taking us along!
Glad you like Hays Creek Run that is one of our favorite trail of all time. Actually rode it recently with a almost completely stock Walmart bike and hit almost every feature🤣. My forearms were done!
Great video Brian! Mount Nebo is some of the best MTB in the state! Simply incredible trails out there. The climbs are no joke though...
I m not good in commenting but what i know iam enjoying so much waching your ride,,,thanks for sharing, keep it up
A group of us from Bentonville rode Nebo about a month ago and used Sam’s Shuttle Service. Great guy and the quick rides back up the top allowed us to get in a ton of laps. Really cool, long downhill runs. Check this place out if you plan a visit to NWA.
Not sure what was more annoying, the audio snafu or Terry’s “cape” shirt! 😂 Those trails look incredible and you 3 were getting most all the goodies! Great job!!
this is such a good one, like the spirit of BKXC in one video!
Love me some Nebo!!! Can’t believe you climbed Sunrise Connector! Ouch! Ox pull is bad enough. Great vid!!!
Never foresaw this crossover, Terry's videos have been a (dangerous) inspiration since moving to the city where I'm on the road bike more lol
Watching your boy ride the whole time was so damn frustrating . . . I'm sitting here talking to the screen of my phone saying "shift . . . Shift . . . He's gonna hit you . . SHIFT! . . . " Ahahaha one of my pet peeves! Trail network looks fun as hell! You always hear about Bentonville when it comes to Arkansas this is my first time hearing about this place. They did a great job of mixing natural terrain and hand built fabricated trail together. That's honestly my favorite! Trails that are purely natural terrain like Backcountry stuff are fun, can be a little rough sometimes especially with the arm pump (ESPECIALLY on a stiff fork with little to no small bump compliance like mine . . . ***COUGH C-ÖHLINS COUGHCOUGH) and flow trails at bike parks that are fabricated from top to bottom are fun too but a healthy mixture of the two types is what makes the best trails in my opinion. I like how you never wonder how your chick's holding up, your just like alright let's shralp bro and she's back 1,000 feet lol. Good footage bro👍
Come to Two Rivers Bike Park just across the Missouri border and I'll show you around! It's a hidden gem. Only an hour or so away
Terry was a hoot. Super fun ride to watch. Thx to you all!
So ready for the enduro race there in a few weeks. Mt. Nebo is so fun
Thanks for your videos. They are so inspiring and endless motivation. I'll see you on the trail... greetings from Austria
My legs are burning just watching this video! You all must be in great shape!
Thank you for the recommendation. This trail ride was my Favorite!!
Small correction: Mt Nebo is not in the Ozark geographical region; it is Arkansas River Valley, which also includes Mt. Magazine and Petit Jean Mountain state parks.
This looks very cool. Lots of very neat scenery and technical riding. Cool elevation. Keeps your attention.
Omg the mountain bike god and fixed god has joined together that’s awesome
Great video. Mt. Nebo is technically still The Ouachita mountains
Thanks for shredding and shedding some light on the MTB scene here in the Natural State*.
*Arkansas became known as the Natural State in the 1980s.
You got through that rock garden like a boss
Man the depth of bench in that region is insane.
Nebo is awesome. It is one of my favorite trail systems. You should also check out the North Woods in Hot Springs.
I got myself into the super fun feeling trail riding watching you guys ride... Awesome vid BKXC & alas we gotta see Terry's behind haha..
This makes me proud of my home state. Fantastic stuff!
Dear lord the exposure to your left, on most of this footage, is epic and frightening! Well Done ride!!!
I think I prefer the audio better without the mics. I find it makes the riding footage more enjoyable.
Those Trails look so AMAZING!!! Sealed the deal, I’m going to R-Kansas 🤘
Have u visited till now after 1 year!!🤔🤔
Nice riding guys. Super knarly trails. Love that Terry joined you on this ride. I wish there were more footage of Sara shredding to instead of all Terry. Long live BKXC. Live to Ride, Ride to Live!
Glad you enjoyed Mount Nebo, my favorite trail in Arkansas and only an hour from my house
That waterfall trail looks sick af. Arkansas is beautiful
I was able to make it to Nebo on a short turnaround and was blown away by the trails even in less than ideal conditions.
Definitely on the list ! Just rode Bella Vista and Bentonville- amazing!
Damn looks awesome. I've been to Little Rock and certainly wouldn't expect anything like this to be in the state
Nebo is only about 1.5 hours West of Little Rock. Land topography starts to change fast when you head W/NW out of LR and start getting into the Ozarks.
Pinnacle Mountain State Park, right outside of Little Rock, has some legit trails now, too.
Love these videos, the Trailforks crew is definitely gonna hit this in summer!!!
That's so awesome mountain biking is starting to become more accepted. I live in San Diego and we've got a long way to go, but it's still nice to see.
Awesome video Brian!! Keep up the gods work!! Looks like fun!! 👍
Incredible trails and just good times with good friends, thanks Brian & Sarah. 🤙💯🤙
You should in addition to your chest mount gopro, wear a 360 camera on top of your helmet as a forward camera backup and so you can cut to someone (Sarah) riding behind you. Syncing everything up with the audio files. 😎
that trail system was awesome! just the rock work alone!
My anxiety and fear of heights was in full swing on this video, that was a heck of a trail!!
its the side drops that i find sketchy 😳
Dude .... that Super mega rock garden ! 😳
I just went and did the same climb on an e-bike. The last mile of that is like the Grand canyon switchbacks and all up. Great riding but I'd probably out to drive up next time
I mean wow what wicked trails. No wonder your bike gets a bit of a hammering.
Great video! The trails on Nebo are my local trails and I love them. Had a crash and tore my labrum on Hays Creek.
this is cool,, those bikes are super duty.. they took a pounding
First trails on that Arkansas trip that actually look very appealing. Despite them being purpose built and groomed like all the others in your recent videos, these here still have some natural touch. Nice!
I'm watching your nice videos. Greetings from Cali Colombia South America
superb, salute to the trail maker and you three rider
Amazing trails and also that the bikes can stand all the vibration. Great video!
Was not expecting Terry B! Great trails, great riding guys.
I have studied this video so much, Thanks for the great content! Heading to Hot Springs in a few weeks. We plan to stop at nebo for the last two days and take this route because it seems so epic!
watching for first time and just the way up I am thinking “what the heck is this place, it’s amazing.”
So glad you came back to AR this year for a long trip.
It must be a very enjoyable experience riding through exotic trails. Warm greetings from the Special Territory of Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
