looks sick! i wanna ride there
agreed!
this is your best one yet nathan....great vid, editing and great music...well done
I removed the name, but I don't think it would have done any harm.
That's an ignorant statement to make. I have never given directions to anyone about where a trail is. I get tons of emails from random people asking where the trails shown in the videos.Either way. People are still going to PM you and you're going to tell them where it is, etc.
But, I'll look on the bright side. I think I won the pool in when the FRS kidz were going to blab it on the internet.
I always respond the same way:
super nice trail, good film as well.
OK...... I'm tired of seeing you damn kids riding like I wish I could. I'm OLD....DAMMIT. Tyler rocks..DAMMIT!! But he wasn't wearing overtones of Orange, so I think that violates his contract with the SMURFS.
Oh man...... There taking over the world. I'm going to start the Gargamel Race Team...... GRT. Its for old guys who can't catch SMURFS.
good thing i dont have ANY white, blue OR orange involved with my riding ish
you guys are hilarious
Eren, what are you wearing?
Whos going to SST tomorrow? Neal the shipping guy from Transition and his g/f are supposed to be there. (its nice to have friends, wish I had more).....LOL
I'm gonna put this out there and probably take some grief for it. I'm not averse to posting vids up of places but leaving out the names is a rule. I've done this myself before and got burned in the past. I'm good friends with the guys/gals who put alot of sweat into that trail over the past year and I'm sure they'd appreciate if it wasn't named. Also, all I ever hear is how the Sammamish kids aren't giving back. Meaning all the trail builders around here know you guys and have never seen a shovel in your hands. I know most of you and always stick up for you guys cuz I think you're nice gents and get a bum rap. Anyways, next time you guys see someone working on the trails you frequent, stop and lend a hand for a half an hour or whatever. Posting vids brings more traffic to the trails and alittle digging goes a long way. Simple as that. Peace out, and nice riding Tyler!
No grief from this kid. If you're going to take alot from a trail, it's only wise/respectful to give something back. If more people were this way, every trail would be constantly dialed and we'd all sing happy songs as we danced around the maypole.
we've all broke our backs building and maintaining on the exits. anyways. loving the split shots like the ones from the ladder drop and ladder gap.
i've personally seen these kids with shovels in their hands digging away, giving back. These kids do a lot more for the sport than any of you whining, selfish, complaining fools. btw, keep posting the vids, it gives us something good to watch every once and awhile.
Keep bringin the videos man...they are sick. we all know you guys do some shovelin'....so keep entertaining us with the vids
They've helped out at SST and they were also very busy on Motoguzzi at PA as I recall.
I think what largeextracheese was trying to say is that unless you're Cam McCaul, don't disclose the location of a trial you are not responsible for. Maybe not.
btw - my computer sucks balls and doesn't play the videos on that site. I guess I'll have to check it when I go to work...and I'm on lunch (in case Ted reads this - HI TED!!!).

No harm done boys. The record is now straight. Next vid I wanna see Tyler with a shovel strapped to his m3. Remember it wasn't me saying it. I don't wanna get beat down next time I'm in Sammamish by an enraged group of highschoolers (college now?) with shovels worn from days of digging! 
I'm going put training wheels on my bike so I can go ride with those guys.
I'm in!
didn't they clear around all the stunts up at the top? For some reason I think the majority of the trail is still there.I can't wait for that trail to keep going; super fun place to session
nice vid.
yeah, on r-line. from what i know about what's going on up there (and this isn't very much..all 2nd hand) the trail - r-line - is going to be taken out only when it has to be..until then, it stays put. I also heard that s-line will (may) see the same fate but in the future, not at the same time.
of course, I haven't been out to the trails in a month or so now, so it all could be completely different from then, but from the step-up/down on r-line, all the way to the bottom of blue bucket was still there. from above said step-up/down was clearcut but the trail was still there. The last time I was on s-line, the whole thing was fully intact
sweet video as for that place geting too big dosen't matter a ton, it will all be torn down soon enough. Everything is getting cut down for more building.
god i hate progress
Should have filmed the gully jump from down bellow it would have looked WAY bigger. Those trails are fun but super short.
It's a matter of time before Alpental becomes a mega-mall or the like. I think this is why I'm on the fence between trails that are legit and those that are not. Even the most legit trail is not a sure thing - it can be gone tomorrow for no reason.
Who asked for all of this "progress" anyway?!?

Anyone know how long this trail will last? Are we talking a matter of days?
I've never ridden the trails before, and I'd like to before they go away for good. I'd offer to pick up a shovel in return, but it sounds like there's no point anymore since it's getting torn out. I'm not asking for directions here, just looking for someone to ask "offline". I'm more than happy to help build at the longer-term trails in return.

R Line (which has the clearcut up top now) is on borrowed time. They were told not to touch the trail until at least houses were up - that's what a worker there told me the day they were cutting the trees down. S Line I'm not as sure about. Blue Bucket will eventually be a retention pond and likely the first of the trails to succumb to "PROGRESS".Anyone know how long this trail will last? Are we talking a matter of days?

Thanks man! I'll email Matt and see about helping out. It'll be nice to have some places locally to ride besides SST. My wallet is getting thin from always having to go to Whistler to get my fix. Maybe I'll see you out there, blue yakuza and blue helmet. Say hi if you see me.
