I've missed this channel so much. I started mountain biking last year and binged this channel to make it through the winter season. Honestly, the best mtb channel out there.
Im reminded again why I'm so blessed to live in Cape Town and call this beautiful part of the world home. We really do have some fantastic world class trails. Thank you Eric and Yuka for visiting and showcasing our proud heritage. You make us all proud.
Hello everyone! Thanks for coming to watch the video! It defnitely took some time to put it together!

Your videos are so underrated- you should have 4.31 million subs not 431k. Thank you for taking me to another place again and sharing that beautiful moment with those kids and their smiling faces. Blessings to you and Yuka!
Being injured at the moment, I’m watching a lot of UA-cam. Having a BCPOV + a Yuka video on the same day is a perfect way to start a playlist😂 Your videos are next level for content/image quality/editing etc. Just the best
@@SgtDPickle I have an herniated lumbar disc. Couldn’t ride all summer , had to cancel a father and son bike trip in Arizona and might get surgery (3+ months recovery)… Healing vibe to you.
Great content. When I watched Yuka's video, I did wonder at the privilege aspect of riding in vineyards. Glad you saw it too and investigated the flip side of the divide in S.A. and found the ray of hope. That is some fantastic storytelling!
I was waiting for sooo long for a new video, I looked on youtube everyday to see if you posted a video :) You are like the most underrated mtb channel, you would deserve like a million subsriber ! Anyways, love your videos ;)
I always come to your channel expecting beautiful footage and entertaining commentary, but didn't expect to get emotional the way I did watching you ride with those kids. Immediate donation from me :) This one was really special - amazing work as always, Eric and Yuka. Sending love from Abbotsford!
This is one of your best videos, I showed this to some of my friends and family, they started to understand why I love mountain biking so much. Thank you.
Don’t know how long Yuka has been riding for since her accident from all of us here in the UK glad she’s back riding And just seeing Those kids happy smiling and shredding and you guys hitting the road gap is worth 3 month wait for this video
Wow Eric, this video really moved me. I travelled to South Africa back in 2005 and have been wanting to go back ever since. Your storytelling gets better every time. Great work!
Amazing video Eric. You guys having the opportunity to contribute to the joy of the children in the Songo program was spectacular. Thanks for sharing this video with all our MTB community.
BCpov, you have, without even knowing it, inspired me and many others with your videos.. Around 5 years ago was the first time I stumbled onto one of your videos. I was just scrolling through UA-cam knowing nothing about mountain biking and a video of you popped up, this was from back in your days of Half Nelson in Squamish and early Whistler stuff. I remember watching you weave through the trees incredibly fast, just having fun and being you. Little did I know the journey this would start for me. Watching your videos led to buying a bike (literally from Walmart) and start my riding experience. Fast forward 5 years and I'm working at a bike shop, riding a bike that's worth more than my car, and traveling the world having the absolute time of my life... All because of you. You are the channel that started it all for me, and because of this I will be forever indebted to you. I will support you and Yuka as long as I can because you are the ones who started it all for me. Thank you Eric. Your videos truly change lives. I would never have discovered this happiness and my inner peace if it were not for you, your videos, and your amazing wife Yuka. Thank you. I can only hope and dream to be able to ride with you all one day. Please keep making videos, at your own pace, as long as it makes you happy. They definitely make many of us happy. I hope I can inspire people the way you have inspired me.
Thanks for the great video! It's cool to see you and Yuka's journeys to different places and enjoy the riding and atmosphere of your destination. And showing the otherside of such a great area was a class act. It was good to see you interacting with the kids at the bike park. That gave me some incentive to look into getting some buddies together and give it a try. Thanks again and i'm looking forward to the next video..
Thanks BCpov. I've missed you guys. Great edit!!!! Bonding with those kids was very genuine. That's why you're my favorite UA-camr... South Africa, such a beautiful place.
Haven't watched your vids for about 6 months (no reason other than I've not been online much) I have to say, editing etc is improved, along with both yourself and yuka's riding. I know you tend to be hard on yourself,but I'm impressed bud. You deserve all the success and happiness man. You two make a great team,(I'm glad Yuka started her own channel,it has a completely different feel to yours,yet equally as entertaining) and come across as the most genuine, down to earth couple in UA-cam MTB. That road gap looks tiny on GoPro, once you see a separate angle, that's when you get a more realistic idea of size, and it's definitely a decent size!! Congrats Eric and Yuka, brilliant video, and what an amazing trip!
The thimbnail with the Bantam got my attention. Zooming in nd seeing the CEM reg number made me really want to watch this video. And hearing a foreigner using the local word for a pick up, made my heart happy
The shot with Yuka in the bed of the truck looked like an ad for either the truck or the trail park (if it's a park)🤣. I have to say, BMX kept me out of trouble I probably would have gotten into at that age. I hope it works well for this town also.🤙🏽
who knew there was mountain biking in South Africa! What a generous company to treat you to this vacation. This looks like a wonderful place to go visit.
Such a rad video! My local trails - I have a video on my first Banhoek mission on my channel as well, next time we go, the river gap is on the cards! I also hit DH on Jonkers for the first time a few weeks ago. My next video will be about Jonkershoek! Thanks for doing our lovely country justice!
What a great video you guys. WOW just awesome filming, stories and editing. Thanks. We haven't seen one of you videos in a while and glad to see this one today.. Love you and Yuka.
I've been waiting for another Eric and Yuka mtb adventure video and you guys as always did not disappoint!! Such a beautiful place to ride. Well done on the road gap and truck jumping 👏 🤙
I absolutely love the cross reference of vids.... I follow you both, and watch both vids....but what a great idea to increase audience for each of you!!!
We loved having you guys in Stellenbosch! Never a dull moment with you two. Thanks for the amazing videos and good times!
Thanks for having us!
@@BCpov Never expected you 2 to come to my home country, it was an awesome video!
I've missed this channel so much. I started mountain biking last year and binged this channel to make it through the winter season. Honestly, the best mtb channel out there.
YES!
Great video that made me do a small donation to Songo. Happy holidays to all!
No way, this morning I woke up and was like, when was BCpov's last video, its been a while. And here we are!

Thanks for riding with us!

Might be your best video to date, the amazing trails and riding combined with showing off the locals and kids was very entertaining and educating

Same here. 1 week after surgery to plate up proximal humerus fracture. Jealous of anyone riding.
the wait was worth it, what a video! Glad you could make it to Africa.

Wonderful video, riding with local kids made this extra special.
I was smiling for 26 minutes. That was your best video ever.
such a heartwarming video!
Awesome video. It’s great what they are doing for the children.

Yea!!! Finally a new video, I’m definitely gonna enjoy this video, and watch it 300 times like all videos! Thanks for sharing this adventure!!

Thanks for the heartfelt message Zack! UA-cam has been tough for us lately, so it's wonderful to hear that :)
I ready appreciate both of your videos on the same subject. Your differing perspectives are very informational and entertaining!
Thanks for the great video! It's cool to see you and Yuka's journeys to different places and enjoy the riding and atmosphere of your destination. And showing the otherside of such a great area was a class act. It was good to see you interacting with the kids at the bike park.

Thanks BCpov. I've missed you guys. Great edit!!!! Bonding with those kids was very genuine. That's why you're my favorite UA-camr... South Africa, such a beautiful place.
Good job, and great video...thank you for sharing your African adventure with us!
So glad you’re back! What a great day
I live in South africa and when i saw this video i was so excited , love u guys
Thats a really cool mtb place. Beauty of Nature is everywhere
This is so much more than just a Mountain biking video.
Loved it😊
Thanks Jaron 🙂
Great video Eric ! Hopefully you and Yuka will get more sponsors in other countries. Your adventures are like mini-documentaries!
It was cool seeing you interact with the kids❤

Congrats Eric and Yuka, brilliant video, and what an amazing trip!
Beautiful video Eric! Like always. Loved the part about the kids rocking these bikes!
i was worried you wouldn't mention the flip side after you visited to richer parts, until 6:10
Amazing content mate, always excited to see Yuka's courage and determination of course you as well ... keep coming! safe ride!
The thimbnail with the Bantam got my attention. Zooming in nd seeing the CEM reg number made me really want to watch this video. And hearing a foreigner using the local word for a pick up, made my heart happy

First time in your channel. The ride with the kids ❤️ keeping out of troubles.
Fantastic video.. Well done guys!
You gotta know it’s a good day when you get to watch good riding!
Awesome adventures and a touching story about the kids bike camp.
Dude! I love the "We should park your truck under the road gap because it'll make a good thumbnail" logic. It's sound! 😂
Haha! The UA-cam life! 😁
Всегда интересно посмотреть ваши ролики 👍
Great video! Thanks for taking us with you!
Great Video. I'm glad you guys enjoyed South Africa 🇿🇦 it would be great to have met you guys 🎉
who knew there was mountain biking in South Africa! What a generous company to treat you to this vacation. This looks like a wonderful place to go visit.
