ARE OLD SCHOOL TRAILS STILL GNARLY? | Riding the classic Gargamel and the new Zanarchy trails

Guillaume and I head out and ride the new Zanarchy trail which then flows into the classic Gargamel trail. Gargamel is a classic trail featured in a lot of old mountain biking videos. It's listed as a double black on trailforks but there is a sign at the top of Zanarchy saying its triple black!

Heading up there in 2 weeks. Is it well marked to find those two trails? Trailforks? Cheers!

Gargamel is on trailforks, but Zanarchy isn't quite on the map yet. I've received some feedback from the local community to not give directions to Zanarchy just yet. For those reading, if you do consider riding Gargamel, yes, it's very full on and it's important to ride within your abilities.

Thanks, I know some local boys that'll show me the way. Great vid btw

love it, this is what mtb single track must look like. Its a shame that WA state latest new trails are so polished and smooth-puke, but those "old school" ones build for 26" and 150mm forks still gnarly on another level. This went to my wish list for next BC visit....Stay safe, cheers!

Hey, really awesome video dude and super awesome riding! The quality of the video is actually insane and the color is quite incredible, best ive seen! I do have to add though it seemed as though this was shot at a really low fps and at some points, the footage seemed quite lumpy I just wonder why that is? apart frome that aswome keep it up!

@BCpov 7 жыл бұрын

interesting feedback. I record at 24fps, which is relatively low, but I haven't noticed any play black issues. What kind of device are you watching on?

Did you do anything different with the color correction? I think it looks great. I prefer this look to the washed out look of some of the other stuff. Great riding either way and nice video as always.

Colour really sets this channel apart; it does the scenery justice. The creaking kept this video from perfection, though. Once I heard it, I couldn't unhear it!

love your videos man !! being from the east coast of Canada iam jealous as heck of the trails you ride ! , but while i was watching this video , the whole time i kept thinking to my self i wonder how often you have seen or have ever seen a grizzly or cougar ? in all your BC trail travels and if so what did you do ?

@BCpov 7 жыл бұрын

Actually a friend and I almost hit a Grizzly in the chilcotins. We came around a blind corner and there was a griz standing on the trail. I think it was as surprised as we were, it bolted straight away. I've never seen a cougar, but I'm sure they've seen me. Sneaky those things are.

With so light of air pressure, (18 and 22 psi.), do you ever burp your tires on square edged hits? I run a maxxis minion dhr up front, and an aggressor out back, and run about 36 psi. in both.

@BCpov 7 жыл бұрын

With the tire and rim combo (nobl, magic mary super gravity and dhr double down), it works pretty good. I do ping the front from time to time as you can hear on the first trail. I'm quite light though at 155 lbs.
