Absolutely love seeing a biker who will take care of the trail and leave it better than it was found. If more bikers would act like you we would have much nicer trails for everyone. Stoked for the increase in uploads!

One of the things I really enjoy about Alex's footage is that he goes down trails just like the rest of us muppets, "Don't die, don't die, don't die... ok that was pretty fun!"

The sampler coming with the back to back to back releases after a long lay off!!! One of the best MTB channels out there. Been patiently waiting your return! So stoked!!

my dad recently passed and he has been a subscriber of yours for a while. He always said he admired your positivity and gratefulness to ride as much as you do. wish you all the best :)

THE BEST. Classic Alex for the longtime supporters. And everyone, for that matter. Thank you, kind sir.

I envy people living close to trails like those, you're very very lucky people. Thanks for letting us enjoy it with you

Alex, THANK YOU for the PSA about leave no trace! Those signs went up about 3 years ago and it has only gotten worse with the pandemic/added traffic. It’s a never ending battle to keep mass amounts of garbage off the forest roads. Thank u my friend! I hope to meet u in person and thank u one day!

I am recovering from on-duty TBI. One of my recovery goals is to be able to ride a bike and get started in Mountain Biking as I have meant to for the last four years. Your recent experiences and heart-felt posts have been more helpful than you may know. They truly speak to a special segment who benefit from relating to your honest struggles and your contagious personality and enthusiasm!!! Thanks so much man, please keep it up!!

Love to see you having fun at work!

Love the positive message on mindfulness and mountain biking 💜

What!? The old Sampler is BACK!!! MY MAN!! Missed you! Always loved your POV ride-along style! Keep'em coming!

There's nothing like Avery....such a great trail...the first time I rode it was in late fall a few years ago...and the leaves were all showing off...my sons and I stopped for a moment just after dropping in...and between the quiet of the back country and the unbelievable colors it felt like we were in Rivendell. Just magical.

I've always loved your conservation and land ethic, Alex. We all need to practice no-trace and preservation habits, now more than ever.

Love seeing all these old style sampler videos coming out so frequently!

Thank you for caring for our public land!

It's nice to see you go out and just have fun again, the videos don't all have to be sophisticated productions.

OUR OLD LOVELY BROTHER ALEX IS BACK FINALLY !!!! LOVE THESE VIDEOS , MORE ADDICTICE THAN COCAINE ❤️

Ima 66 yr old mtbr and have watched you for several years. Keep it up. I always enjoy your videos! ❤ It’s getting to where I don’t mtb as much as I used to but I have a few other bikes I use on greenways and gravel and easier mtb trails. I’ll never stop riding. Thanks, Alex. ❤

Ride smart to sample every day..... pre-ride, re-ride, free ride ... and trust your pride ride! Great video. Thanks for sharing.

A classic Sampler riding POV, feels like 2018 again :D awesome vid man

I missed these 1st person pov videos of yours. Thumbs up!

Alex, that was one of my favorite videos of yours. I was feeling your vibe. Out by yourself enjoying the creation and riding a great trail.

I would pay if you set up a "Sample Pisgah with the Sampler" ride. Thank you Alex for showing us the trails!!

All these North Carolina trials look so fun

We're going to be there in mid October and I'm pretty sure we're doing this trail! Thanks, Alex!

This video is a great example of Pisgah! Long climbs, great downhills, and jang! The "wildness" of the area makes the ride. I feel like after every ride in pisgah, I have pushed my limits, gotten dirty, gotten lost, maybe rained on, and leave with the feeling of adventure. Good times!

The return of the stoke is palpable. Love seeing you so happy bro.

Grateful that the Sampler is back on the grind!

This is the Sampler we all missed! Loving the videos!

Thanks for doing more singletrack. Love to see it. Not everyone rides bikeparks. Pain and pleasure.

Love seeing you back on that grind! These are my favorite type of videos. Missed you brother, keep up the great work!

The Single Track Sampler Trail Steward! I love it and do the same thing! Thanks for showing off this Pisgah gem!

Glad to see you back making videos again always awesome videos Thanks Man 👍😎🤘

You have no idea how happy I am to be watching your videos again....thank you! I appreciate your attitude and love of the sport...keep it up man!

So happy you're making more videos! I can't get out and ride much (caring for my new baby) but watching you get out and have fun on the bike helps fill the void. Thanks for sharing your rides with us!

Love to see you riding and sharing again.

It is a pleasure to have you back posting videos only you can do. Thank you for taking us along on the adventure.

Dude, that’s my favorite overall Pisgah trail. The best blend of chunk, tech, speed, “flow”…

Love all the content lately. Glad you're feeling better! Keep shredding

Another great video, Alex! Keep them coming. That trail looks fun and chunky.

Glad you're back at it Alex!

Alex, nice to see you back out having fun.

Hell yes! Stoked to get back to back videos!! Hear are the videos we so greatly missed! You the bike and the trail! Absolutely love these videos!

Definitely happy to have you back. You always help me stay motivated to get out and ride🤘🏻🤘🏻

You are definitely one of the best mountain biking channels out there. Even though I am a much more cross country rider, rubber side down, I love watching your videos. The long delay is definitely worth it. Love you ❤

Stoked to see your vid back with more regularity!!! Love me some TSS!!!

Some fine saturday Sampler weekend warrior inspiration. Thanx Alex!

Long time subscriber here. Best news of the late summer is the return of regular Singletrack Sampler vids. And thanks for the Leave No Trace mention. I've seen similar scenes in National Forests in VA, WV, and PA. Forest Service will only deal with this for so long before they start closing places.

Always giving me inspiration to go back to Pisgah, such great trails!

Heck yeah I'll be here watching you sample a new singletrack!

Sampler Sense is tingling... Nice to see you back on your bike!

I'm so stoked the vlogs are back!!! Loving the videos 🤘🤘

Love the videos love it when people take care of the trails we need more riders like that. get stoked too !

At 54, I am not a Black Diamond rider. I'm not even a Blue trail guy. Heck, I'm not too keen on anything downhill style. But I love the dirt! I enjoy your videos because you LOVE the ride, too. Your recent leg fracture recovery gave me hope because I had a wrist fracture (which I'm still recovering from) that kept me of my brand new Trek hardtail for over a month. I'm back in the saddle but still going easy. LF,RH,GS!!!

Awesome video. Love watching your stuff

What a great run! And good call taking it easy on some of those bigger drops with your recovering knee. No sense in pushing it so hard. Wait till you are more rehabbed up and you got a trail buddy with you

It is great to see you are putting out more videos. Love the content.

Glad to see more content from the sampler!

Great video. Love the trail maintenance along the way. Also, thanks for the trail directions as you came upon them. This really helps anyone who isn't familiar with Pisgah's layout. Kudos on not hitting the large gap jump by yourself. If the gap jump doesn't work out, you are a long ways from the parking lot or anyone that could help.

I love these videos! Keep them coming. Especially since they are just up the road from me in SC! Pisgah and Western NC is just a beautiful area.

I didn’t know how much I missed theses weekly vids till you started posting them again but I will still watch ur vids no matter how often you post them because they always make my day

Welcome back my man. Great stuff this past couple weeks! As the kids say "this was lit AF"

thank you for being an awesome trail steward!!!!

"Climbing is like a Zen thing for me." Absolutely agree with your attitude about paying your dues with the climb. I enjoy it also. I've climbed that exact Avery Creek Road many times...being introspective before Club Gap and the Avery Creek or Buckwheat/Bennet Gap descend. Enjoy.

That is a great trail. My profile picture is from Avery Creek. It is so nice when most people want machine made trails but Pisgah has so many of the natural trails it’s really fun. It has everything.

Nice to see you were back in Pisgah. I love going to brevard so much fun. Good ride. 🤙🏻

Awesome to see a flood of videos! Felt like I was binge watching as I woke up today! Take care man!

So stoked you’re banging the videos out again. You just make me wanna ride all the damn time!!

Dude so glad to see you out riding again

damn you're riding is on point! smashing whats thrown at you, love your videos Alex!!

Keep up the good work. Stoked

Pisgah! I love it!

Keep the videos rollin!!

Smart decisions dude! ❤ it!! The Safer Singletrack Sampler.

Great to see the Stoke Guru in fine forms. Thanks, Mark Western Australia

Best MTB and Vanlife content on the tube, keep at it Alex, long time fan now!

You are killing it lately, keep it up!!!

Keep it up bro good to see you back in the saddle 🤘🏼

Great video! Loving the new uploads!

Really enjoy the older style ride videos man. Good job on getting back to getting out the frequent videos. And as a bonus, I caught a glimpse of one of my stickers on the orange toolbox.

Incredible trail. That’s exactly the kind of stuff I live to ride. Cool you fixed the sign and removed debris off too. After watching this I’m getting the bike out for check over and get the gear ready for a early morning hit out . Thanks for doing you man ❤️🤘

You are awesome dude! 🤘🏼

Bravo, love the sample of Avery it’s such a fun trail! Cheers 🍻

Definitely my all time favorite trail! 🤘

I want to get back down there, thanks for the preview

Glad to see the raw footage again. Keep up the stoke🤘🏼

My wife and I did that trail about 2 years ago. The top was definitely super chunky, but it was such a fun ride. Can't wait to get back out that way for some more riding.

You're on a roll with the vids! Love it!

Great looking trail!

I need to ride that soon, maybe this weekend 🤔. Thanks for another stoke vid!

I’ve ridden a lot of places in the east and west this is by far my favorite trail and especially spices it up when you ride it at night

Pisgah does not disappoint, great video, enjoying the regular content

Super awesome trail, I definitely have to plan a trip to this place

Met you out at Bent creek this past weekend when you were getting ready to ride. Nice to have met you. Love your channel. Stay stoked!! 🤙

Loved the video it you inspire me to go faster and ride everyday.

Glad to see a bunch of videos lately man, stay on the trails! Get stocked!

That's a really beautiful trail.

Awesome trail 🤘👍❤❤❤

Good to see you shredding again brother keep up the hype

Yeah, back to sampling Singletrack!
