You have one significant quality to your videos that I really like and appreciate...it's your adding the tidbits of area or trail background and history to your rides. Not only does this set you apart from the others, but it's just great content. Now you've opened the door to some more new and original content by creating a trail builder series (not really a series), but your trail rides could include trail builder history supplemented by riding with the builders themselves. I love to hear how the trails, features and names came about...I especially like understanding the origin of trail names. This is a wonderfully original idea for some differentiating content.

I rode this trail and the whole Enchilada because of your great influence, thanks so much for leading the way and thanks for building such an epic trail guys. I will be back for sure …

GREAT VIDEO!! Thank you for introducing us to Tyson, and for highlighting Captain Ahab, one of my all time favorite trails as well! I am the FAST (Friends of Arkansas Single Track) trail adoption coordinator here in Northwest Arkansas, and I LOVE to hear stories about advocacy and volunteerism. We're up to 119 people who have adopted a 2 mile section of trail here locally, with some sections having more than one. It's just like virtually every other organization. It follows the 80/20 rule. The trick is identifying the 20% who are willing to help, and then incentivizing them, appreciating them, rewarding them, and retaining them. If you lose 5% of them, there's not another 5% waiting in line to take their spot. Those are the "I barely have time to ride," people who aren't willing to sacrifice ONE ride a month to get out and help. I don't understand that mentality, but it is what it is, and the only way around it is to get more people involved, and make volunteering as fun as it can possibly be. Thanks again to Ibis and you for making this video!! More trail means more maintenance, and more volunteers. That's just how it works! If the people watching this video aren't helping with your local trail advocacy group....look them up, and go meet some cool folks, and lend a hand! They're working to make YOUR riding experience better, so chip in!

Tyson is a truly kind, humble, stoked rider and gifted trail builder. He came out to help Team Dirt with rock features and placement on Whistlepunk at Alsea Falls in 2015. Really inspiring to work with him then and to see him still at it now. Thanks for posting this, Brian!

You can tell he’s passionate because EVERY TRAIL has a story!

A HUGE thank you to Tyson and his brethren for their hard work. I've been enjoying Moab's trails for 30 years and look forward to hitting the new stuff I haven't yet. Moab is responsible for my undying love for the desert southwest. What a magical place! But we need to expand access so we don't love the great spots to death! Or better yet, let's make so many great spots, we CAN'T love them to death! Public access to state and national park lands is a national treasure we cannot let slip through our fingers. Keep supporting the public trust so we and future generations can enjoy our country's bounty!

Man, I have watched every single one of your videos over the years (except the sprinkler ones...), and while they always get my hype I really appreciated this one in a whole new way. I really love you taking the time to share the spirit and history of this amazing trail. I would love to see more of these "iconic" trails narrated by those who had a hand in their creation.

It’s super awesome how you are able to ride with the trail builders so often for your videos. Part of what makes your efforts unique from the other you tubers.

The best way to do sponsored content, doing actual interesting content and not just a voiceover over some b-roll footage of trail builders. Thanks Brian for this video. Tyson and other trail builders, you guys are amazing doing such amazing work. Thank you.

TY so much for the inside information on the community. I wish we had such a strong and efficient community back here in Germany...

Fantastic vid and BIG thanks to all the trail builders out there--and the landowners/managers who see the benefits/opportunities that MTB can bring for health, happiness and local communities. Roll on!

Thank you for supporting trails.

Trail builders are rock stars. Treat them like one

I picked up a Ripmo AF this past fall and absolutely love it! Love your videos! Thanks for the work Tyson!

So many people just doing ride videos...and many of them are doing it really well...but adding the story behind the trails and other local info really distinguishes your videos...makes them more personal and interesting when we go ride the places you feature. When I see that giant boulder that looks 2 days to move on Ahab it'll mean a lot more. Keep it going bro.

Brian your videos are great and you are doing a great service by sharing your riding experiences. I now want to go back to Moab and ride Captain Ahab

Dam that poor ripmo that thing can really take the hits. Amazing video Brian

That is one of my favorite trails. This video is therapeutic: the sound of mountain bike tires with the, "thud, thud" on every rock hit might be the most soothing sound ever.

That soil thing been the first thing I got told when I was riding the first time in fruita/ grand junction. People are taking good care. That’s great to see

You just make the most kick ass videos out there! 🙏

One of your best videos. You even timed the ride with the sunset....mind blowing. Watching that guys lines was inspiring. You're living the dream and it's all due to your hardwork. Thank you and Merry Xmas!

Thanks Dude!! Your hard work, positivity and passion for bikes is a great service for the bike community!!!! Merry Christmas !!!!!

Hymas is my friends dad who was a huge freerider in the early 2000's red bull rampage sponsored by specialized truly a great family!

Keep on crushing it Brian! I’d love to see more videos with trail builders. It’s super cool to see the people behind these masterpieces.

So cool to hear the story behind the build. Makes me wish I was 20 again! This trail would slay me these days.

Thanks for the ecology lesson Tyson!! It's a great reminder to not just take care of the trails, but also to be good stewards of the surrounding land.

Great footage!!! I always enjoy watching your videos BKXC!

This is my favorite trail in Moab. I don’t really love climbing, and it’s a blast to climb! Thanks Tyson!

Probably my favorite trail I have ever ridden, thank you!

An amazing trail!!! Thanks for share!!!

Thanks for all the videos this year Brian so inspiring. I loved this video hearing and seeing how the trail was made yet to look at it it just looks so natural and untouched. Great way to showcase the work of the trail builder

It's always cool to see someone ride a trail that they know so well.

Amazing trail. Thx for the awesome work!!!

Some of my favorite vids from you are in Moab! Love all your stuff from 2019. Cheers to a great 2020!

Sick, love hearing about the building process and stories behind all of the segments. Hoping to get out there in the spring. Thanks for the lesson on the desert soil.

I just did this ride for the first time in November! So fun! This trail demands that you nut up and just go for it. If done at a cautious slow pace then you can't do half the features! I think I had just as much fun climbing on this trail and found a real joy in making it up certain routes... Awesome video - my favorite so far \m/

Amazing video, thanks Brian!!!!

Trails are like monuments that can outlive the people who make them and depending on the environment they can last thousands of years.

Brian, great video, great trail. Love the behind the scene stories and video of these great trails. Great stuff !

I am very happy that you ride flats I’m so proud of you! 👏🏻

Cool video nice to see the people behind great trails

Great video Brian, thanks. Merry Christmas Brian.

Thats really amazing, I hope the moab community gets it together and allows ebikes soon!

Nice work guys! Amazing!

4:28 that view is not too shabby. Amazing video, hearing from Tyson is very insightful. Glad he and his buddy had the vision.

Possibly my favorite BK video this year. More of these!

having ridden this trail, I have to say it is by far the most challenging, interesting and fun trail I have been on. Looking forward to getting back and trying again and again.

Love the video! And the automotive bottle jack was a great solution to make this trail possible. Thumbs up to Tyson. Also @8.5, I liked Tyson's bike with the section of tire zip-tied to the bottom to keep from banging the frame. Very creative and useful.

WoW! That’s an amazing work! Thx for showing and sharing 😎

I like how Tyson is hardly sweating while Brian is gassing ha.

Bkxc: it’s a wasteland Tyson:it’s definitely not a wasteland

Awesome Video. I love to hear the history of Moab and MTB.

Just rode this trail and I had an absolute blast. So much fun. Better than porcupine in my opinion. Awesome to learn the history and see the process.

Truly fantastic as always Brian.! Happy and safe holidays... I can't wait to see what 2020 brings..!!!

You are living the dream! Happy 2020!

So awesome to see the process and inside knowledge on a favorite trail. Tyson, you rock man! Ahab is such a blast!

Thanks for another great video. I can't wait for my 1st trip there in June 2020.

Love it B. One of my favorite trails and a great video 😎

Great concept, more of these

Man I live in Moab and went to school with Tyson I love your content keep it up!

Nice one Brian and trail builder Tyson, after maybe two years I'm still liking and being motivated by your videos 👍💪😎

Wow what a beautiful place thanx for this video

Thanks for putting out content during Christmas week! Cheers and Merry Christmas Brian!

Watched few videos on Ahab, this one by far most enjoyable. The first trail I'm riding on my next Noah visit

Sweet vid, you rock Brian! Merry Christmas!

Thank you Brian, For all your videos and hard work putting out great content. Thoroughly enjoyed all of it and looking forward to next year's adventures. Happy Xmas from the uk

Tyson is a cool guy. I met him a view years ago when he was working on a trail in Cedar City.

So refreshing to follow someone down a beautiful trail WITH a story. So many MTB vloggers out there do only the down the trail part.

What an awesome ride and cool to have the builder there with you. Merry Christmas!!

Riding this in April 2020 for the 2nd time. Can’t wait! Tyson is a rockstar. Thanks for the awesome video. Happy Holidays and New Year Brian!

So awesome

Love this riding with the trail builder type video. Seeing the lines that are hidden in plain sight. 🤘😎

Nice video and SUPER RAD trail. Thanks

Man moving that rock that was epic goes to show what they do to link up the trails without it probably hike a bike great format Bryan hats off to the trail builder's 👍👍👍

Such a great video!

Love this trail...great job on the video...appreciated learning the trail nuggets!

That was fun...brought back memories of you and Alex riding these trails. VERY COOL...

I definitely agree that you should do more trails with the builders. That was pretty awesome

This was AMAZING to see this perspective, and hear from the legend who built Ahab! My FAVORITE loop in Moab 🤩.... Mainly because of all the bonus side jank 🤘🏼😂🤘🏼

Thanks for Brilliant Year of Videos .Have a Brilliant Christmas And next Year hope to see you on the Trails.

Another awesome video. Merry Christmas!

It's good to see your videos again, Brian. I have been having to skip a lot of the stuff you've been putting out because it's been so busy for me. I miss my usual commenting style, but I really just like to simply watch the videos and enjoy them. I really need to get out to Moab. I hope you have a great Christmas and New Year, Brian! Stay upright and keep the rubber side down! -Brian

Really cool with the storys. Merry Christmas.

Awesome video. Great to hear from an awesome builder.

Another awesome video Brian thanks for sharing. One of these days I will ride this trails. Liked and Shared as always.

Great video, and very interesting trail history...I love Captain Ahab! The Captain rules!!

Keep up the great work!

Wow nice trail. Need to get there

Great Content on this video, loved stories about how the trail came to be. I have have been watching videos for 2 years now, more recently have lost some interest in ride videos but this was great. Would love to see more videos in this format/direction.

Merry Christmass dude!! Great video.

Epic trail. On my list to go and visit Moab in 2020. Happy Holidays Brian!

Great video, definitely motivated me to go out and work on some local trail. Thank you guys,

Excellent production! Love that you ride and film at the golden hours. Quality ! I used to be so active with mountain biking like you are now. in 2011 I started building in Sedona and flagstaff because I was so happy about my Mojo HD that I wanted to match the capabilities of the HD to the trails I was riding. I went to Moab a few times. More tech please! I like to believe in myself that I influenced many at Ibis once they rode my handmade trails in SDA, like owner Scott. And like Dave who sold Ibis rigs for years there in Uptown. He was kind enough to ride with me. With a bit of sadness I gave up mountain biking in 2017. Poverty entered my life.

Wow really enjoyed hearing from the builder!

DEFINITELY NOT A WASTELAND. Thank you, Tyson!

Nice one Brian a dream location !

That was one of your better videos Brian! Really cool to get a tour with the actual trail builder.

Awesome awesome video, i can't wait to get to Moab!

way to go! just awesome!

Nice trail hope to ride there one day. Merry Christmas Brian and to all of us. Lets get it on.
