Thanks Richard! I’ll definitely be coming back. This place was unreal!

Hey man! Thanks for the kind words! My current bike is actually lowered 1 inch in the suspension. It sucks to lose the ground clearance but it helps me out when I’m in a tricky situation.

@@megs_braap How tall are you?

Thanks David!

A landholding company just bought all that land and they are now prosecuting trespassers unfortunately.

Thanks! I will check it out next time I’m in the area!

Haha totally! You’re especially right about the broken parts 😂.

@@megs_braap Hope you didn't break too many!

I’m filming in 1080p, 60 frames per second, on superview. KZfaq will allow you better quality uploads as you build a bigger following. Kind of silly but that’s what they do.

@@megs_braap I think the problem is that I am recording in 4k, and YT is compressing it to 1080p...

wow, i just reread that and oh my i should of proof read that! LOL Sorry bout that!

Hey! I film in 1080p at 60fps in superview on my hero 7. Then I export the video with the highest settings possible in an attempt to take less of a hit when KZfaq compresses it.

Awesome! Thanks so much for getting back to me!

@@IRAfallon No problem at all! Thanks for the kind words!

@@IRAfallon gopro 8 should be good on default settings, i would enable hypersmooth. aside from camera settings - youtube destroys picture quality when you upload. I recommend uploading at a resolution of at least 1440p. Even if you record on the gopro at 1080p, you should render / export it from video editing software at 1440p or higher. Then when youtube re-encodes it on their end it will look much better than something uploaded at 1080p. You'll mostly notice the difference during high speed motion/ lots of changing detail. race drone videos have to deal with this too! But if you're not going to render the video after recording it, then just record at 1440p or higher and then you can upload directly to youtube for good quality.

I’m not sure if I tried that hill climb or not. It sounds familiar but I think it’s just because my friends mentioned it.

Yeah there are tons of climbs just like this out there! Such a fun place to ride.

You can order them through your local shop. They are the Cycra Ultra Pro Bend with the bae mount clamps.

Yeah we had a couple of days where it was still frozen under a thing layer of mud and ooooh my was it ever brutal.

Yeah this was right before COVID hit so I was able to cross the border and drive across the country.

Yeah this was in March so the leaves hadn’t come in yet. We actually had one ride the week before where all the creeks and streams were frozen and the ground was ice underneath a thin layer of mud. What a nightmare that was 😬.

Normally all my riding and filming would happen on Sundays (my one day off a week) or if I took time off. I have recently quit my job to pursue my riding clinics full time though.

I was local 455 out of St. Paul, MN until I got into project management.

Cool. I was thinking there's no way all the leaves are down already. Looks like great riding.

😊🙏

You are the best😊🤘

I was definitely running a gummy tear tire here. They make life so much easier.

What bike is she riding?

This footage was taken in Ohio. I live in British Columbia. When I am home, I put in tons of time building, clearing, and maintaining my local trails. When I am travelling, I first of all do not carry shovels and picks and whatever else you'd use to fix up things like ruts and water damage on the trails. But second of all I am travelling to train, collect content, and teach clinics. Maintaining the areas that I visit for a day while I'm on the road doesn't make much sense to me. I do my part at home when I have the time and the means to do so.

Megs Braap well said. That reply just earned my sub(lol, really not that valuable). I get so tired of arm chair warriors. I'm past the point of doing what you do, but am enjoying your videos and riding skills. Thanks

@@megs_braap you shouldn’t post the location to trail areas that are already illegal to ride at; like Wellsville for example. Place is totally illegal riding area and you’ve just introduced a ton of people to it via KZfaq.

The comment was a general point for viewers. I know you're doing your part. Sorry Megs did not mean to offend. I love what you do.

Mike Barker Absolutely. Sometimes there’s a guy there that collects 20 dollars for the day fee but that’s it.

We used to go jeep riding there all the time 15 years ago. Heard it was all shut down and closed off. Is it still open???

FALSE. The area was recently purchased by a landholding/mineral/mining company and it is now off limits.

Haha fair enough. My idea of fun doesn’t line up with what most people consider to be fun 😆.

Most people wouldn’t think it’s fun be we are a bit sick in the dead 😂.

@@megs_braap Yeah , I suppose ya gotta be ready to rock if your gonna ride with Graham , Way past my level Juss Sayying but you, Different story. Thanks for showing us how its done. You probably have the best instructional channel on You Tube .

The point is to get better. Learning to find traction is the toughest places, learning to choose better lines, learning to power through exhaustion, etc. It’s not fun for everyone but I enjoy it.

Thats not creepy
