Ty, for all of the great scenery, awesome trails and bike parks, and all the great riders you get to spend time with is totally wicked...and in closing, your unbridled energy toward something you love to do, in work and in play, is something that a lot of people can't say they get to do. And that goes to all the Tube MTN Bike Channels. Take a bow gentlemen...and, the ladies, that ride where most wouldn't hike...Thank you.

You are a real inspiration Mark! I sadly couldn't meet you in person when you were in Quebec at Sentier Du Moulin..! But I want to say that you really inspire me with all your trails building videos! It made me start trail building and after 3 years of hard work I now had the chance to build and entire trail at my local bike center!

The last trail you rode is my favorite there too. Love that big sweeping berm leading into the steep drop. Was neat to see the big Sharknado jump in person.

The new trail is looking sick 🤟 If you haven't tried one, pick up a McLeod fire rake for roughing in trails... it'll change your life 🙌

@ChristopherBloom 7 ай бұрын

I worked wildland fires for a few summers and spent hundreds of hours on a McLeod. We used it to scratch out fire breaks fast and it'd be perfect for these kinds of trails! Fun fact for anyone learning this the first time: it's pronounced "Mac-cloud" not "mac-lee-ode". I got funny looks the first time I tried to pronounce it out on the fire line.

Hey Mark, in Germany it's very difficult to build wild illegal trails. How do the authorities see it on VI? And I'm planning to fly to VI next year and have read a lot about the bears there. Don't you have any problems with them or are you not afraid? how do you deal with them, especially when you're up to your knees in the wild? Thank you for the great content over all the years 🙏🏼

@MarkMatthewsMTB 7 ай бұрын

Mostly forestry land here with land use agreements, it’s a whole different world here compared to Europe and building bike trails is an easy thing to do. The bears are super chill, the cougars scare me more but they are quite elusive and scared of people too.

Thanks me too! A special spot. And the dumping is so frustrating. I stopped someone earlier this year from dumping old computer equipment out of their car on that road too. So ridiculous people behave that way.

Amazing video, if I don't have a private forest how can I build legally trails?

@MarkMatthewsMTB 7 ай бұрын

You can’t really go free reign like this unless it’s private property so I recommend connecting with your local trail organization

Will the trail be open to the public when it’s finished?

@MarkMatthewsMTB 7 ай бұрын

It’s in a private zone, no trail forks, no strava, no dif no ride. Vancouver island’s worst kept secret. 😉 anyone who finds it and thinks they can ride it are welcome to give it a go 🙂🤟
