Video Summary

Introduction to the trail

• Soldiers Memorial Park mountain bike trail has two different tracks.
• The narrator previously did the super easy track with their multijoy bike, which only had 30 miles on it.
• This time, the narrator wants to try the harder track with their bike that has a thousand miles on it.

“They have two different tracks and the one I did over there was like a super easy one and I did that with my multi joy because only had like 30 miles on it…we’re gonna hit the harder track and see how that goes.”

Experimenting with different bikes

• The narrator enjoys trying different bikes to push them to their limits.
• They believe that either their body or the bike will fail at some point.
• They acknowledge that the advanced trail is an option but prefer to stick with the beginner trail to test their bike’s capabilities.

“I feel like I’m constantly making these bikes do things they’re not supposed to do just to try them out… they do have an advanced trail and they have a beginner trail, I’m obviously doing the beginner trail because I am not a mountain bike rider.”

Familiarity with the course

• The narrator realizes that the trail they previously did with their Multijoy bike leads into the trail they are doing now.
• This gives them some familiarity with the course, making them more confident in tackling it.

“I just figured out that that trail over there actually leads into the trail that I did with my multi droid before so at least I know the course a little bit.”

Riding the black diamond

• The narrator decides to challenge themselves and ride the black diamond trail.
• They feel more comfortable on their current bike, which has a more suitable build for this type of trail.
• However, they mention that they’re not attempting any big jumps, only small ones.

“I didn’t hit the black diamond this time…but this time I think I will…I feel a lot more comfortable on this bike, the throttle’s kicking it…I mean this thing is just kind of like built for this except I’m just not doing any jumps…I mean little jumps baby jumps not big jumps so let’s see what…the black diamond has in store.”

Excitement and completion of the trail

• The narrator expresses excitement and enjoyment after completing the trail.
• They were more aggressive on this trail due to their familiarity with the bike and the modifications they made.
• The narrator appreciates the bike’s features, such as the hydraulic brakes and the absence of pedal strikes.

“That was fun…I was also more aggressive with this trail because I know this bike…with that shorter crank that I put on it, there were no pedal strikes and that’s amazing…this bike is awesome…I think it’s not made for this but it is handling it fine.”
