Hey man big thanks and glad you enjoyed it. Music has always been a big part of my life and people like you have provided the soundtrack to certain points of my life, stoked the fires of creativity and propelled me to push myself out on the trails and in life in general. Also, if you haven’t tried mountain biking and you have the opportunity/capability to do so give it a try. The juice is most definitely worth the squeeze.
@@MSHRadio-dj5zn Try it out man. I think you will enjoy it and the nice thing is some of your biking skills and endurance will be transferable to an extent. With Singletrack you get deep out in the woods, there’s challenge, there’s novelty as no 2 trails are alike, and you can definitely get some adrenaline too if you want it. I started 4 years ago with basically no biking experience (I was a skateboarder) and am now hooked. It has also pushed me to get out of state and travel across the country (even out of the country) to ride. Good times unless you break something.
You guys are right - carver is a great trail to take beginners and show them why mountain biking is fun, especially with that new skills area. It’s got good flow, some satisfying challenges, downhills that are fast but not too fast and lots of bailout points. It’s also my go to spot when I’m not feeling on my A game and just need to get out for a ride.
Agreed on all points there. They picked the perfect MORC trail for that skills park. Another nice thing now is that sunfish lake park is only like a 10min drive if you want to hit a second shorter, feature-laden trail system nearby. Or as a quick warm up before Battle Creek (although when I go to Battle I’m pretty thoroughly exhausted after those rides. No extracurricular needed 😩).
SireSingletrack if you want to go for a big loop, you can start at BC, ride half a lap, ride the road to Carver, ride a lap at carver, ride back to BC and finish your lap there.
This year has seen a substantial increase in new riders on all trails but after this ride CLP is undoubtedly gromm central. They’ll definitely be advancing quick in an environment like this.
You little show off. Love the showmanship. We the youtubez appreciate it! Definitely looks like a good place to introduce beginners and way to stick with those skinnies and get them nailed...er I should say that one skinny...the one two inches off the ground. You had no problem with elevated ones...go figure! Great video Sire!
I don’t know what was going on with my skinny skills that day. Seemed like the more difficult the skinny the easier it was with the opposite being true as well. The one footer was just some classic Sammy LacAskill. Happy to hear you enjoyed it man. Hope you have an opportunity to sneak some biking in this labor day weekend maybe. 🤘🏼
It is. Super fun little system that’s also right next to the new Sunfish Lake Park trails (11 min drive) and Battle Creek which is equally close I believe. Lots of options in this area.
"You don't want to go off of this edge" - right where I almost did exactly that last year. I caught my handlebar on something (on what? I dunno - there was nothing there) and went over the bars and right onto the edge. This spring there are even more gromms running around. It's great to see.
Hey we ride this trail a few times a month great place, I finally got a bike that was made after the internet came along. What tires do you prefer for this type of terrain?
Hey, Confreg here. I like how my track is used on this video. Thanks for giving credits and providing a link! You totally rock on that bike! Cheers.

@@ElTerrible2011 Yeah I need to try that. I do ride my bike daily but on paved roads.

@@KrisYahner Damn dude, how many miles does that end up being for you? 30-35 is where I max out and the ride turns into more of a chore than fun.
SireSingletrack under 30 I think. It’s been a while since I’ve done it.
Also it’s awesome seeing so many young ‘uns out growing the sport!

SireSingletrack I went out at 5am today before class and then I’m hopeful to get out once or twice this weekend
So cool to see all the young riders out there using the trails!
Absolutely. There are a ton of rippers on the rise as we speak. Gonna be hearing "ON YOUR LEFT!" A lot more in the years to come.
I love the sounds :3
Looks fun!

Oof. That would have sucked immensely. Glad to hear you didnt go over the edge.
Great vid man; It’s Interesting and hilarious. Ya just don’t know what’s coming next.
Had to retroactively outfit you with a helmet in certain parts for your safety. Hope you like the design. Fun times. Lets see that Duluth vid man!
SireSingletrack, thanks for the effort, fits well and has a designer look and feel.
@@Dialed1 LOL 😂

I'm not the best to ask about tires honestly. I'm rolling Maxxis Minion DHFs
