The best part about the 50 State Shred is FINALLY getting to some of the places that I have heard SO MUCH about but haven't made time to go ride. Brown County has been hyped up by you guys from the very start of my channel. It's hard to believe, but this place completely lived up to the hype.

Pro tip...When you hear a strange hissing coming from a cave, you leave the area as quick as possible...It could be a ton of things and most of them bite... ;)
Sounded like a skunk to me. Which, really, is worse.
Very scary riding alone in the jungle like that
To me, you're known as "that guy" that kept us engrossed in a year-long adventure during Covid. Thanks for taking us on your amazing adventure. I don't know if you realize what you have done for people. God Bless.
I don't bike (not yet, anyway) but I love watching these!
I just started MTB as a corona-hobby. This channel has been a lot of fun while i'm cooped up.
@@shelleyswan104 I'm getting one because of him. I love this channel.
We are bummed that you had to skip Griffin Bike Park because of the rain but glad you got to check out Brown County.
Sure hope he comes back for Griffin. It’s amazing.
dude ive only been there once i really only went for the pump track and the slalom but ima hit the jump lines next time i go there
Coming down this weekend to GBP. Bringing a friend. Can't wait.
Griffin is nothing compared to Brown County. Griffin is over hyped, wouldn't travel more than an hour for that place. It's only saving grace is it's skill park for those who enjoy that stuff, which I don't. As a local trail system, overall it's great, but it's really not a travel destination of any real distance.
Great hide

@BKXC A couple of things: first, thank you for riding our trails! Our state is blessed to have an amazing network, which you only scratched the surface of, by the way. There’s SO MUCH MORE you didn’t ride! Come back soon!
Second, about that gate/off road fee…those fees don’t go to us. These trails are built and maintained by Hoosier Mountain Bike Association. Volunteers do much of this work!
And a bonus number three…you met Steve Miller! (the guy on the Chromag). He is somewhat infamous in these parts for so many reasons LOL come back soon, my friend.
Man, I went there in July, I tried doing schooner and heard the exact same sound from that same cave. I got it on video and looking back at the video it was a skunk. Scared the crap out of me. It was a damp day and between that animal and the crazy rocks right before I said screw it and turned around and just went and did the other trails (it was the first trail of the day for me).
Also, they were collecting the gate fee and you had to go to the main office and pay an additional $5 to ride the non beginner trails. I asked and the $5 goes to the local trail build association who maintains the trails.
Might be buzzards. We have a bunch of rocks that fell off the cliff that formed a "cave" and for 10 years buzzards (vultures) have been raising their young in there. They make a horrible hissing noise when you get close.
@@Cliftyman maybe for Brian, but when I was there I got got it on video. It was clearly a black with white striped mammal. Most likely a skunk, but could have been a badger.
We are excited for you to come visit Griffin Bike Park the next time you come through Indiana!
Could swing through Kickapoo State Park trails after that!!
Griffin is definitely an excellent place to ride, up there with BC.
There are some really good trails up here in Tippecanoe County.
I fell down one of those ravines last time I was there!
Awesome to finally see Indiana featured. As someone from the northeastern part of the state who doesn't even ride mountain bikes (but loves watching your amazing videos), you've definitely inspired me to not only make the trip to check out Brown County but also give mountain biking a shot. Thanks, man! Can't wait for more great content!
What part are you from? I am riding out of South Bend.
@@MichianaMadman Fort Wayne. I'm just a roadie right now but am looking into trying some mountain biking. I'm not really sure of good places to go around here, though.
Franke Park has some trails. Winona Lake in Warsaw has a some good trails too.
Your video motivated me to take my own adventure at Brown County! Man what a great time! Thanks for the videos and keep up the great work!
Next time you swing by Indiana check out O'Bannon Woods and the Adventure Hiking Trail. Someone described It as Schooner Trace & Bobcat had a baby for 26 miles. The rest of the trail system is old school roots and chunk with a little flow/jump. to reward you with the chunk.
I came here to say the same thing! Love O'Bannon!
Will you eat that popcorn already.....been in the van for months.
Josh Taylor I’ve noticed that to 😂
lol
Super cool to see a rider like you on my home trails! Glad to know I'm not the only one that thinks Bobcat is a deadly sleeper :)
Glad you finally made it! That’s my favorite solo road trip destination. 👏
You've got to get back here and shred with us again!! ❤️
so happy to finally see BCSP on here!! such a gem of a trail system!
21:19 the best. People recognizing you and are so happy they meet you on the trail :)
You should do a tier list of all the trail systems you are doing on the 50 state shred!
This is my local riding, it's so cool how a big UA-camr came and rode their.
I’m at school but this is more entertaining.🙌
I'm at work....Facts!
My parents are Asian and Im doing distant learning🙁
Glad you made it to the best trails in my home state!! Hope you had a chance to check out nearby town of Nashville. Quaint town with eclectic/artsy shops and a cyclers cafe. (And nearby Bloomington is great as well) Good luck with the rest of the 50SS! Go Hoosiers!!
Boiler Up!
Thanks, Brian. I'm having a really tough one today and your videos help me escape and be okay. Thank you.
The bobcat cave is definitely a double-black feature. First time I've seen that haha
That shit got me good on my first time on that trail!
It is actually a vulture
@@invaderzimrocksify you sure? Sounds like something hissing in there
@@motoace2007 someone posted a picture of it and said it hissed at them. Vultures do hiss. 😳
Kentucky and get indiana trails have flow and tech, and challenges. So glad BKXC came out to enjoy it.
Love the Onyx hub. Silent cruising lets you hear so much, including your voice and narration! Great call, man.
Spandex ahead and walking. LOL Quote of the day.
22:13 That is a very satisfying sound. That trail definitely had some scary sections, but looked really fun.
It's a very easy trail, but Green Valley is a blast to ride with some great flow spots. Nothing technical, just fun fast flow.
Great you got to ride our hype trails! I tried the old drop in to Schooner like 10 years ago when it was first built and it was limestone armor with a terribly placed tree... Decided after 4 failed attempts and scratching my fork that it was too rich for me. I'll have to go back and redeem myself now!
No way he finally made it to brown county I’ve been waiting for this for so long. Love the videos keep up the good work!!
Hey! Brown County is awesome! Glad you got to check it out.
Those are my home trails, love the vids man: great to see you have fun on my home trails!
Everytime I watch your videos I cannot wait for the weekend so I can bike again in the woods :) Super nice videos and project you have going on.
Finally at my home state. Sweet vid and sweet place. I have ridden here many times. Love it. Keep up the good works.
Same
i was happy that you didnt clear all of schooner trace.. that trail had more walking for me than any other trail i have been on! thanks for making me feel human again :D
Oh man, what a tough one!!
Nice one dude, I live in NC but was born in Indiana. It's great that you're showing everyone that there are great trails in every state!
So glad you came here and rode Schooner trace anybody can clean that got serious skills
Keep up the great work! This definitely helps inspire us beginners to get out there and ride as much as possible.
We gotta get out there every weekend!
@@Kowo-tb7rb even during the week
Brian, that bike park rocked, a lot of different types of trails, also extreme fun. I'm some happy
you made it back to do Indiana. Have a great week, I will be following you the rest of the way.
Be careful & be safe.
I live in NY and am an Indianapolis Colts fan. Now I have to make a trip to see the Colts and see this awesome trail system!
Well I glad I found this out. Never new, but I just started riding so that might be why
8:41 is where my wife clipped her left pedal and fell into that ravine. Was our first time ever mountain biking, had no idea how we got onto that trail
That is why you watch videos of the trail
Hey man great video! Check out Frisco 20 loop on Frisco, CO. 8.5 mile, 3400ft decent! There is also at least 800 miles of riding within 25 miles of Breckenridge. It exists!
I love Brown County in general.I can't wait to check these trails out this fall! Nice video buddy.
Awesome to see you riding my home state! I've been to Brown County a bunch of times, but never MTB'd there... Thanks for showing the trails, if I get better at MTB it would be awesome to try!
Been waiting on this for weeks. My home trail system. Proudly busted my ankle on hobbs this spring... or something like that. Not even on a jump, coming out of a berm a little too hot
New sub here. I look forward to checking more of your channel out. I don't have a bike yet but plan on treating myself to one in November for my 50th bday. Currently have a bowflex c6 to get in shape. Keep them vids coming!
So cool to see you riding a trail that i actually ride!
Great vid. Glad you finally made it to Indiana. Brown County SP is really a gem. Next time you're in the state you've got to ride Nebo Ridge!
Glad you came through!!! Brown County is where me and my dad bike all the time! Def the best in Indiana!
My state is getting the respect it deserves. People think it’s boring here because they don’t know about the hidden gems. (Brown County is definitely not hidden) :)
Thanks for visiting our area, we love riding those trails.
DUDE.... Thank you for you videos.... During this awful past year with not being able to get out and ride as much this has been fantastic for me. I love being able able to ride at 18mph with the entirety of all of your videos..
Great trails there! Thank you. Prayers for the Napa and Sonoma valleys. I know you’re from that area.
That cave is where the bobcat lives
What a beautiful (and unexpectedly terrifying) set of trails!
I’m glad you finally made it and enjoyed it. Now I have to go back soon. It’s an hour and a half from me.
5:18 = where I broke my knee cap... I didn't have my gloves with me, landed that jump, right hand slid off my grip when I landed, weight on the bike was completely off balance, crashed on the left side and smashed my knee into a huge rock on the trail. Wasn't wearing my knee pads either. The lesson is gloves are a hell of a lot more important than you might think lol also probably wear knee pads too
I just did Brown County for the first time this weekend. It was so much fun!
Tremendous trails at BC. We come from Palos to BC every October. And the newest weekend trip is Kickapoo State Park near Danville IL. Put that on your list next!!
@@nickanotheradventure Kickapoo is great! Been there twice. ua-cam.com/video/lsPq0_CYQrE/v-deo.html
Looking forward to going back and trying trail 10 soon.
I’ve been shredding Weedpatch, Hesitation Point, BobCat, NorthTower Loop since I was a kid on a $150 mountain bike and I never thought they were Black, or Blue rated 😳 this whole time I doubted myself and how good I could get at riding.0.0 that really puts a new perspective on how hard and how good I could be at riding. Thank you BC
BCSP is a huge favorite of mine, particularly Hobbs and Bobcat. And that weird sound? It was going on when I passed there too, and so eerie!!
Glad you made it there. It's truly a gem!
Awesome that you finally hit up Indiana!
I’m going there next weekend, this by far is the best video I’ve seen when it comes to planning out my ride and getting to know the trails for what to expect! Thank you for the upload🤙🏻🍻
I have been waiting so long for this one because I live in Indiana and I’m not surprised that was a bobcat.
Always an epic and informative ride! Love this channel
“Jubilee tinglers! “😍😂 I love it! Thanks for letting us share in your fun! 🚴🏻♀️
Man I miss home. Live in NY now, but my childhood was spent in Brown County and down the road in Yellowwood. Nice to see the vast trail network they have now.
His lil bit at like 12:15 about all the mellow trails with super high consequence turns and bits I think is just an Indiana staple cause I live in central Indiana and have been to 3 bike parks around here and they all had the “this is a green (or maybe blue) trail with a 40 foot cliff on each corner” kinda vibe so idk but it’s very exciting especially if you find yourself going faster than you wanted to
When I go back to visit mom and dad, I'm 25 minutes from Brown County. I live that distance from Cuyuna. Its a cross I have to bear...
Make sure to hit up Bemidji and Grand Rapids if you haven't already. Great stuff in the Iron Range too, but I rarely go that far unless I'm skiing.
@@jwj8201 I hit Bemdiji and Grand Rapids all the time.
Those contour lines took me back to geography classes at school... nice trail...
U HAVE to stop distracting me from my work LOL... keep em vids coming hombre!
Brian your jump game has improved dramatically! Way to go!
Love it Brian! I’m an Indiana native and went to school at Indiana University in Bloomington. Not far from brown county. So cool to see Indiana through your lens and glad you enjoyed it. I haven’t ridden those trails since the late 90’s when I was in school and need to get back up there. Have really enjoyed following along. Stay well.
Boulder Gulch in Silverton CO is roughly 4.5 miles of downhill with 3,500 feet of descent. Hiked it, not sure I could ride it but others do.
Sad to see that you skipped some of the blue and green trails because there really fun but glad you did a video. Thanks
Brian you are absolutely killing it!..Not even a pandemic can stop you mate. I've been following and watching your progress from afar since the beginning of your channel. Your hard work and persistence is inspirational, you are making your Uncle Dennis proud.
I'm pretty sure I ran into you this summer in Indiana. I love your videos, i just started biking recently and you are an inspiration. Thank you.
I love driving past Brown County to ride. Ive been there about 8 times at least.
Another great video! Thank you for this series.
You’re killing it bro. Sick video
This gives me a little hope that my Indiana trials I’m learning on may be a little difficult haha. As always love the video!
Of course you would run into Steve! That’s awesome, #canfieldbikes.
Surprised he didnt drop "F Bomb" on Brian LOL
Funny we both uploaded our Brown County videos on the same day with very similar experiences. Good to see your opinion is the same as ours!
Great video man! Great to see you riding my home trails!! Love love love Hobbs, Weedpatch, Bobcat! You've got to come back and shred again soon - I'll show you around - you bring your Ibis and I'll bring mine - and we'll kill these trails
16:00 the nervous energy in this scene 😂😂😂 i'm dying
Doctor Park has a super long downhill with only like a 5 min climb about 3/4 of the way down. Would highly recommend.
Also, the Pipeline descent near Pikes Peak is pretty epic, but does have some significant climbing and requires 4x4 shuttle vehicles.
After you're finished with 50SS I hope you put together some good weekend trips upper midwest, east coast, southeast, and so on plus a top 10 list. I've really enjoyed this I look forward to the next state
Living vicariously through these videos of yours during covid season. Thank you
Love brown county, and yes it’s the Hoosier state! Don’t ask us why
Last couple weeks, was at BCSP and I have never seen a State Park as busy.
Your channel keeps me motivated to ride, sir. Keep up the awesome work!
Also, at 15:25, that's sort of like what all the trails are like where I ride in St. John's, Newfoundland.
Loved the Mn video! Obviously you're barely scratching the surface much of each state in this tour, but we would really enjoy a proper trip on the entire Duluth traverse system! Love the trails there!
I live just a short drive north in Franklin, and have ridden 100s of miles in Brown County. Never get bored. Road Hobbs Hollow today till my chain broke. Pretty awesome, but not as much fun on an older cross country bike. My bike is not set up for jumping. LOL
I didn't realize how good I had it when I lived in Bloomington till I moved...
Spare Tube, I make a sleeve out of an old tube to slide my new tube into, it'll protect the tube hopefully for years in the pack..works for me, Happy Trails.. from DTE Trailworker..
Multiple mile DH: Oak Ridge OR. Ashland OR. And Downieville sister trail: Mt. Hough. Also Alsea Falls OR.
Hell yeah man wasn't sure about bringing my bike to my family's house but you just made me think twice! Love the videos and can't wait for the colorado video to come out! Would love to see what you hit out here and how ya like it!
I had been away from mountain biking for over 10 years when I decided to buy myself a Gary Fisher Marlin for my 50th birthday, in 2010. Rode BCSP a couple of weeks later, and did my first XC race there the next year (on that same 30.5 pound Marlin). Absolutely love that place! There are some other good trail systems in Indiana, but Brown County is the bomb-diggity!
Dude, those trails are awesome! Bobcat looks sketchy AF
Just road Bobcat. Sketchy is right. Walnut had moments too. Lovin’ the riding here. I’m from Michigan
Great video, as always
Thought you were going to get attacked by the bears, hearing the hissing out of the cave on the trails... Along with the extra tube, carry some bear spray... Awesome videos!!!!
Christmas Valley South Lake Tahoe... definitely a multi-mile downhill after a brutal climb and start up to round lake. Check it out!
