Today I'm going on a ride with Eric of BCPOV
We're gonna ride on Cypress Mountain which is one of the North Shore mountains in Vancouver, BC
This is only my second time riding Cypress Mountain
But it's got some really great trails that are definitely worth returning for
As you can see I am riding my Norco truax today
There were some things that I'm working on with my Wilson. So unfortunately I couldn't take it out
There's a lot to talk about, so I'm just gonna make another video later on
Detailing all that's been going on with this bike, but don't worry, it's getting pimped out. It's gonna be super mint when springtime comes
So another interesting thing is that YI, sent me their 4K+ action camera
So I intend on making more of a review video of it later on
but right now I'll have it as my helmet camera angle, so we can see how it performs
Alright my first ride with BC POV. Yeah this bump
And then meat sweats, whatever yeah go for it, yeah
All right or seasick oh yes
Now I love this trail
Oh
Sure they missed that thing oh
Man well gnarly oh
Okay
All right, that was so sweet
Yeah, I love that trail that was so good oh man oh
My gosh, I forgot to tighten my gimbal it fell down like this
Yeah see this
Like that's the kind of stuff. I was riding uh first day. I went to Cypress and I was just like in love
That's where my bike shines a little bit better
Huh, what's that hat?
Look sorry was this still Jersey Shore oh
Yeah, I remember this
Yeah, but that stuff is so fun
Oh am I good, but then there's like some like big boulders where you're like okay, can't quite plow through them
Yeah, I think you remember this part was pretty fun fast sure
All right oh
Maybe that wasn't so good ouch
Getting a little little out of hand
Yeah
My left calf hurts I
Just like went straight over I just had to jump off. I just like jump through this
And I realize I can't turn right that fast
Okay, yeah, my left calf like good head to here like the only thing that hurts yeah
I think it's just because I must have like hit on one of these logs I
just like I basically jumped off to the left and
Mostly tried to protect my camera and gimbal ah it turns out I actually hit my leg really hard
So this is a picture of the bruising and swelling I had to live with for the next two to three weeks
Definitely worse than I thought it was I don't even remember hitting my leg on anything just that it hurt a lot
Yeah, good to go
I'll just go first. I just won't go as crazy. Yeah
I wasn't gonna let that stop me from having great day riding, so we still ended up doing one more run after this one. Oh
Dick there's a dump there
All right, yes, that is so sick
Okay now my freakin fingers are tired you know and I'll back in the river there yeah
That was so sweet. Oh my goodness, I cannot wait to ride that on my Wilson like seriously
The city
Yeah, yeah, what's a boogie?
Yeah, okay first his mom
There you go, oh here we go meat sweats
Oh
Sweetie breaks
After my ass still there oh
Yeah, yeah
That's a good jump. Have you done it No? Oh, it's pretty doable
All right after my crash
My calf is a little sore oh boy. I'm not quite riding the same right now
Yeah, that's a fun trail. I like that yeah, it's it's so organic though. Yeah, it's so soft. Which is pretty fun actually
Yeah, yeah, yeah
All right, yeah, this is fun. I really enjoyed this
So sketchy
My finger just get tired from breaking. Oh, yeah, sometimes all just switch to middle fingers
Seeing self a lot actually yeah, you're kind of grabby, but they have a lot more power
That's what you got I got Shimano XT viewers
Yeah, I think I'll do it I want to go faster though, I want to go fast in last time
I kind of case it last a little why did you want to do it? Oh?
I'll still let you go in front after that
We're gonna hit this jump whoo oh yeah there we go
Where is he
Did you do it
Yeah, it was actually easy to clear you just kind of you don't even need that much speed
You just need to like bunnyhop a little
There you let me go first down yeah
Not crashed this time
This was a really fun day
beautiful views
The fog over the cityscape was absolutely amazing and I cannot wait to ride these trails again with my DaVinci Wilson
It'll be a much better fit than with mine or court Rex
So make sure you guys check out BC POVs perspective of our ride go check out his channel
He makes lots of really great mountain bike videos riding all sorts of awesome trails around BC
He rides a whole lot of really cool trails that I definitely hope to join him on more this year
So you can expect a lot more collabs with us in the future since we don't live far away at all
So I'm really looking forward to what this year has to offer especially with my new bike
And I'm just gonna go riding a whole lot more
I'm gonna be working really hard on making videos for you guys, so I'm really stoked so stay tuned
