(lively electronic music)
(machines clamoring)
(all yelling)
(champagne popping)
- I'm not there yet, but fizz--
(laughter)
- This the Billy's?
- It's Thousand Thousand.
Do you want a free bottle of champagne
at ten o'clock in the morning?
Yes. It's a great idea.
Oh my god we've hit a million subscribers.
Congratulations everyone - Cheers, cheers.
- Cheers lads.
- Cheers guys.
- It's unbelievable news,
and I just want to think about this, okay, right?
A million, right? That's a lot of people.
If we said hello to each one of those million subscribers
- Boring video
- It would be a boring video and it would take a year.
- A year?
- If you just kept saying hello.
Hello, hello. - Hello, Hello.
- That's a lot of people.
- That's mental. - Unreal.
- It's a great opportunity to look back
at what the journey was to get to a million subscribers.
- Yeah lets go down memory lane, eh?
All the way back to the beginning to see
what we've been up to.
- Oh, not the beginning.
- We have to - the very beginning.
- Welcome to the Dirt Shed!
- Show!
(loud bang)
- Oh, sorry about that.
- Friday, it's...
- The Dirt Shed Show!
- It's the Dirt Shed Show!
(clap)
- F***
- We'll bake you. Bake you? - I don't mind being baked.
(laughter)
- He's got a knife.
- But we can't forget all our beautiful partners
that took, ya know, helped us get through all this.
- That's a god point mate. There's a lot of them.
- There's a lot, I'm gonna read them out.
We got Scott Canyon, GT, Nukeproof, Crankbrothers,
Continental, Smith, 661, Puck, Ergon, North Wave,
FSA, DT Swiss, Pog Tools, and Topy.
So that'll be 40 chain reactions, camelback, and douche bags
- All four douche bags.
- Alright this is also our moment,
and this is probably the most important bit,
to thank all the people you don't see, behind the camera.
So, thanks to Tom, and thanks to Jack,
and thanks to Connor, and thanks to Matt,
and thanks to Mike, and thanks to Si, and to Phil.
Oh my god there's so many people.
I'm terrified I've missed one.
Dan Johnson, oh my god!
There's so many people. - Nick. You guy.
I can't tell you how hard these guys work behind the scenes
to make all this stuff happen.
Tom and Claudio and Charles over on the social.
All these guys they work so hard
and really, we just get to do the silly bit.
They actually do the hard work.
So, thank you to you boys.
This is your million as much as ours
- Cheers.
- But like Neil said let's take a look at some...
Can I start? Can I go first?
Right, I've had some amazing moments on GNBM.
It's been a big part of my comeback to riding actually.
So it's really got a special place in my heart,
so there was the back on track video,
and we've done down and out
where we went and hit Fort William,
and then there's been stuff where I've kinda like
focused on Trials bikes which I've really loved.
Getting that detail of mountain biking into the public eye,
and also, kinda projects like my mountain trike.
I've absolutely loved being able to do stuff like that.
And of course, we went to Whistler, which was my dream.
I'm hoping I'm gonna get to do it again.
But here's some of my highlights.
(chill music)
- Time to talk wheel size.
Really bird? Really?
(bird chirping)
Bird? Can you?
Would you just? Could you just?
Would you mind just? (bird chirp)
Could you just?
(bird chirp)
I'm looking at you.
(bird chirp) St....!
Could you just give it a rest?
Thank you.
(bird chirp)
Okay let's play shut up. You go first.
- Some of my favorite times on GMBN
are doing things I would never
have thought of doing before.
Like even the simple thing like Are Fat Bikes Fun?
Before GMBN I think I was too serious.
I would never have done that.
I actually really like that it's opened my mind.
But also, we're lucky enough to travel quite a lot,
and actually meet some of you lovely viewers.
And it's always really cool.
It's always really natural, never awkward.
'Cause it feels like you know us
and I think you actually do.
You are inspirational and it's a great crew.
(laughter)
- And Andes Pacifico, again, one of my favorite trips.
Actually loved getting out there and racing.
Iceland with Grandy. Some amazing, amazing trips.
- Absolutely. Should we take a look?
(chill music)
- Yeah, so a little bit different for me.
So, I've kinda worked with all of you guys before
in one capacity or another.
So I reckon Whistler, actually,
was probably my favorite thing.
I haven't been here that long.
And that was pretty amazing.
Bit of an emotional rollercoaster,
and a hell of a lot of fun. (laughter)
Right, you, scaring the crap out of all of us, all the time.
- And myself.
- But not actually, ya know, done a lot of great trips.
Alicante with you was a fantastic trip.
- Yes that was an amazing time.
- But actually more on a tech side of things.
No surprise, you know, we had all this GMBN tech this year.
Quite a successful channel starting up.
- Already over 100,000 subscribers.
- So I mean I've done loads of great trips.
Did Seal to Anneal. That was awesome.
So much cool stuff we got to do over there.
And then seeing so many actually World Cups actually.
I think that was really the highlight of my last year.
It was fantastic. I think next year is gonna be huge in 2019
- Oh yeah, let's have a look.
Let's have a look at some of Doddy's best bits
cause there's a lot of them.
- For the Australian racer Sam Gaze.
(electronic music)
Whoa!
(laughter)
- Blake, how long have you been here?
- Two years. Half the time that GMBN's been going for.
- Yeah, but you have made some amazing videos.
- It's been a hell of a lot of fun.
Doesn't even feel like two years.
The first one, is when I went to...
Was with you and Scotty Laughland,
and I did it. I was amazing.
It was my fist sunshine shoot. Did that.
I've been all over the world.
Never expected to go anywhere else,
but you know, everywhere.
It's some cool stuff.
I did some bike packing with Neil.
Opened my mind with that.
Martin, we went... Whistler, can't forget that.
That is there for sure.
- That gets us all in the... - It does
- Gets ya in the feels.
- Gets me in the ankle cause I was laying in hospital.
- You were, yeah.
He hit a car.
And I got to hit the biggest jumps of my life. Huge.
Like hit 14 miles an hour into like 90 foot plus, jumps.
Darkfest, and then Audi nines competing.
I've done Whistler. I've done, I've done so much.
There's so much to go on about.
- You've ridden down a hill with Sam Hill.
- I've ridden...
He told me to do the inside turn.
- He sure did, and you still didn't learn it.
- Nope
(laughter)
- Anyway, lets look at some of your best bits.
(electronic music)
- But we can't forget these beautiful people
that did give us a little bit of a hand.
Marc Beaumont, the slug.
- Everyone at GMBN,
I just want to say a massive congratulations
on reaching one million subscribers, truly awesome.
I look forward to more great content on the channel
and best wishes for Christmas.

- Congratulations on hitting one million subscribers.
That is absolutely awesome, what a milestone.
Thank you for letting me be a part of the journey
and I can't wait to see ya out on the trails.
- Who else have we got in there helping us?
- Jessica Strange
- Jessica Strange, yes!
And what about Rob Warner? He was there right from the start
we had to ban him 'cause he's too rude,
but other than that, he comes back every Christmas.
Thanks you guys... - Cheers guys.
- Once a year's enough. - Go on, look at it.
It changes color if move - It's blue.
- A one million t-shirt.
- One milliom t-shirt
(whistle)
- Does it cost one million?
- Wait, wait, cause it's limited edition Doddy.
It changes color as you move.
It's like eight pack paint, its incredible.
It looks like some kind of like supped...
- you don't have an 8-pack up hot rod.
- I've got a keg.
- I've got a 1-pack, but I'm working on it.
Come on 2019.
Yes.
Don't forget, you've got your chance to head into
the GMBN shop and get your limited edition
one million subscribers t-shirt

get given one - I didn't even get the memo
