I found Chuckwagon, Mescal, Canyon of Fools and Last Frontier to be super enjoyable to ride, with beautiful views and not boring at all. But we all have different opinions I guess and come from different perspectives.

My opinion, there isn't a bad ride in Sedona.

You slayed this trail Brian! While I may be able to ride it (mayyyyy) I still don't know if I'd love it - but as you said, different strokes for different folks! Cheers.

Great stuff, as always. I really appreciate your running commentary on all of your rides. Thanks

I've been following you for many years and I can say that this is one of the videos that characterizes you best! I actually enjoyed it!!! You are an inspiration!🤙

Sick riding dude!! Those trails look amazing!! And the trails look hard to! Really Love the content from Sedona!!

Now i know why you ride so professionally. The good burgers!

Great ride!! Looked tough. Love it. Leveled up in your zone brother

Sweet! This is the earliest I’ve been to watch a video!!

This video really shows the advances in video and stabilizer technologies. That trail is crazy rough and the camera is still super smooth. A few years ago a video on this trail would have made you sick to watch!

Brian give us a bike check on the new bike! I been dying to see how that bug zapper blue Ripmo looks fully assembled

That trail looks awesome to me! Good work Brian! 👍😎

Awesome! Definitely adding these to my list

Scorpion and Pyramid are 2 of my favorites out there. I take those to the Old Post/Carrol Canyon loop that has an AMAZING high speed technical descent when ridden counter clockwise. One of the few loops I will do laps on!

That's serious XC mountain biking right there. The ratings are all relative to the willingness-to-suffer factor. No e-bikes!!! Your vids are better than ever

Another awesome video!!!

You have some of the most beautiful videos on KZfaq. Should win awards.

Loved the wheelies at the end. 🤘

Good thing that plane didn't lose any parts !LOL!

Brewer trail is a good one in my book!

I was going to say it sounds like the Boy Scout trails near me, but then you said it yourself! 😂 You are a tech master! I need to build up my endurance!

I've done that warm up loop a few times, always liked it. I did half of Airport loop one time. Absolutely hated it. But I used to ride occasionally with a group of guys from Mountain Bike Heaven ( back in the late 90's ) who seemed to love it. I never could keep up with those dudes, in Sedona. Flagstaff riding is a better fit for my skills, or lack thereof.

Beautifull scenery. Got aches and pains just watching. Pretty entertaining though😄

Love your "Trail1 List" idea!

Man you make me want to be better at tech climbing. You look like you're having so much fun on those nightmare climbs!

I guess I am weird like you, my wife and I enjoyed the Airport Loop. Some people find it hard to keep up speed on the chunk but is crucial to the outcome. You did well on it! I also find the second time is so much easier. See you on the trails in Cumberland, BC again sometime!

Rode this loop with Nate Hils and Ritchie Rude but we did it reverse direction than you did it. We came down what you climbed. I thought it was fun..once you got off the transition trail the runs along the airport fence line.

When I was out there a few years ago I really enjoyed Slim Shady, Templeton, Easy Breezy, Little Horse.

I rode that trail a while back, and I did not have fun on it. The cleat on my clipless pedal was sticking, which made it terrifying for me. You did a fantastic job on it. I have to say it wasn't my favorite. I would ride Slim Shady/Templeton a hundred times over before heading back to that one.

All those cacti hanging over the edge of the trail are making my shins real nervous.

I like the airport loop, it's a fun challenge, sort of tech, but really a great example of the need for body/bike awareness. I really enjoyed riding from Oak Creek to do Hiline, crossing the creek at Baldwin Crossing, and up to airport loop via Ridge trail/Bandit...and then you are a stones throw from Oak Creek Brewery. It's a fun mix of flowy Hiline, some grunting up Ridge, and the tech pedaling of Airport. Butt after a beer in West Sedona, I am looking for a lift home ;). I'd also suggest Transept, off of the top of Hiline

Could definitely check out the western gateway next time you're out here

Here’s an idea of how to rate the best trails that u ridden. You should categorize it. Like these are the best shuttle rides. These are the best double black, flow etc.... cuz many of us don’t have that much time so we are looking for specific trails.

Thanks Brian :)

Looks fun! I'd be way too scared of going alone, though.

I'll stick to A-line, haha! Point taken though, you killed it!

Nice ride

I cannot more highly recommend riding Iceland. I booked with Icebike Adventures, and the riding is second to none. You'll never experience terrain like that anywhere on earth. You will absolutely love riding there.

Cyclopath. . . I like it!

I love airport... great early morning ride in town

I had same thoughts as yourself that everything was kind of lackluster after the handful of famous trails. Ended my trip last March on Grand Central & Herkenham -> Old Post... absolute riots of descents. Maybe just cause you could actually maintain speed & didn't have to worry about dying off a cliff lol.

Amazing!!!!!

this looks like a loop that Hardtail Party rides, though I can see why a full squish would be preferable on that chunk-fest!

10:44 realy strong climb! Rocky Ducky! :D

That looks like so much goddamn fun.

I would have landed on the cactus many times. Trail is not for me! Great Job BK....

Found your channel and love it new to MTB world. Need to check out copper canyon in chihuahua Mexico

I would LOVE to ride this trail.... If there was WAY less spikey flora of doom on the side of it. LOL

Right there with ya… Fast flow with jumps and trees is NOT my jam… Give me chunk all day everyday 🤘🏽

wow that plane :O crazy

Was hoping to see u ride your new bike

As a mnt biker I've hiked that clockwise a few times and have no desire to ride it.

Brian, Jordan Boostmaster did a trip to Costa Rico a couple of years ago which looked amazing. You should check that one out. Was lots of techy super steep stuff

pyramid area is super fun!

Hey Brian thanks for great vids and trail sharing. As a NorAz, Sedona “local” wrenching, guiding since the ‘90’s I often roll my eyes and chuckle when KZfaqrs blow into town for a week and then are experts on were to go ride ! Sedona’s spider-web of trails offer invisible connectors and miles of secret options unknown unless you know... I highly recommend joining an actual local and offering props to those whom did the work that made this National treasure possible. Perhaps ride “Chuy’s line” on Hangover with Chuy or Ian’s trail (Rabbit Ears) with Ian...?!? If your down this spring I’d love to give you the local hook-up and help you with your tamale wrapper. 🔨🚲 Denis

Boy Scout trails near St. George are a hoot.

hey Brian have you been to Austraila, some great trails over here. You should check them out sometime

I met B1KER on airport loop! Edited: I actually met you right before riding airport and then meeting Robert

Super sick video Brian. you not only inspire me to get out and ride my bike even though it's a hardtail but you also inspire to one day be able to create video content. I'm planning on saving up for a go pro and a more capable bike to ride stuff techy stuff like you. Thanks Brian for the content and hopefully I'll see ya on a trail.✌️❤️

kinda surprised not having the "My Friends" intro! 😅 i thought the whole vid was an intro. some day sedona, some day.

I don't know who wouldn't like those trails? It could have used a few jumps, but those rocks made it worthy.

If the rocks and exposure don't get you, the plants certainly will ;) Nothing like risk vs. reward when hauling past massive patches of Prickly Pear. New Mexico is similar; I feel like all of the plants here just want to hurt you.

My kind of trail for sure.

i kind of liked the old angle of your camera haha. u know when u see the bar of the bike it feels more realistic and fun

Yo yo! Love all that you do man... so... the blog posts about your Trail One List... not everyone likes to read... we love to listen and or hear you describe it. Please consider reading or reciting on camera, all those blog posts... gotta give the people the content in their favorite form... video, audio and written as well... for me, I love riding the trails you suggest, but would not have the patience to read the description.... maybe a podcast is in order... less production effort, but gets the info across. Again, love all you do man.

If you like what 80%-90% of trailforks users think suck how much value will the Trail 1 list hold LOL. Airport loop perhaps not the best selling point. Great videos, love the content.

I don't think there's a hated trail in Sedona...hahah Kiddin ! I didn't really like the "Canyon of fools" but Mescal was one of my favorite tho ! The VIEWWW !!!

there are so so so so many good trails in Sedona your got to be kidding...

16:03 the view 👀

this trail is order of magnitude better than all of my local trails

21:18 No e-bikes!!! Ahhhhh.....

How do you like the med sized frame?? I’m barely 5’11 and got a large Ripmo at last year.. Iove it. Whips around easily and stable. But manuals seem like a huge effort(I also still suck at em.) and the bike feels way too long. Did you have any of that experience? Thanks, love the vids 🤘🏼🤙🏼💯

Dude! Try Transept, Brewer and Pyramid!!!

It's soul destroying to hear you being able to talk so easily while going UP trails that I'd struggle going down them 😉

Hey Brian - have you been clipped in while riding in Sedona? Curious to know your pedal recommendation for these trails.

I remember the outer limits trail wasn’t too bad. Nice views. Very wifable

Pretty cool you have your own Stem Cap made for you? Is there someone who does that?

Man, you should have checked in with Steve @HardtailParty. He could have given some recommendations for Sedona.

Ride with Steve from hardtail party!!!!

What precautions do you take on solo rides if you fall and get hurt and can't make it out under your own power?

Brewer!

No gloves? Nutty

5:22 I guess that's why it's called Airport Loop?

Yup. I hated that trail.

No gloves? Great scenery and riding as always.

The airport restaurant has a great breakfast if you have the time

I wonder if the local Sedona hospitals give their staff a pep talk before every Sedona Bike Festival?

Oaxaca es muy bueno

Slim Shady, Templeton and Little Horse dont do it for you?? Sheesh.

I think people that rate this trail low have fallen into the cacti and don't want to admit it lol

You need a 120mm bike to ride the other stuff in Sedona. No fun on a big, heavy Ripmo.

BCPOV went to Oaxaca

I’m good with all that but that exposure. Those drop offs to death are a nope

What tire pressure do you have? Sounds high.

Your a great rider and all B....but noticed no gloves on that ride? Only takes one slip of a front tire and your hands would have been littered with bb's (rocks)

I rode airport today and got rained on.. );

What kind of tires are you using here ?

Those cactus look too close for comfort!

Free Trail acupuncture 👍

At least the entire trail was lined with cactus, so if you do go down... 😳
