Norco Factory XC Team at Canada Cup #1 - Bear Mountain: The race season started off early this year with a Canada Cup at Bear Mountain in March. With an international field, a technical course with lots of jumps, and over 150m per lap of climbing, it was a great way for the Norco Factory XC Team to test out the legs after training hard in the off-season.

The Adventure Dispatch - Ultra Romance: Deep in the remote wild of New England lies an enigmatic figure, with piercing eyes like the Night's King, to which many names are attributed. Boltar Benedict, Poppi, Juan Cool Romance, Turbo Romance—it's all really beside the point, as it's his message that's truly important. It's a tale told through unbridled, unpretentious adventure. No, he doesn't ride for Insta-likes, he's spearheading a movement of living simply and getting out in nature. And even if you're not daring enough to tromp through the bush to find him, you're still invited along for the ride.
Orange Bikes Segment - #Escapism: We all have days at our desk, when we're stuck in a rut. The best solution, get out on your bike and ride, clear your head, get the blood flowing and solve your problems. John Owen takes the new Orange Segment for a good old spin. #Escapism.
No Reception: A quick escape to our local backyard jaunts to do the things we’d be doing regardless: riding bikes, surfing, and camping. In the end, simply put, the trip was rad.
Tony Hawk & Jaws - Zero G: This looks like the best time ever.
Flashes of the Altai: Three childhood friends set out for the far western corner of Mongolia to combine mountain biking and packrafting in a self-supported adventure into the unknown. Never having attempted a mountain bike to packraft link-up, they decided it was a great idea to travel to one of the most remote and sparsely populated places in the world to try it out.
Flashes of Altai so thought provoking the contrast between our tech obsession and living in a yurt with camels and an eagle and all the beauty surrounding! I went from "I want zero g like Tony Hawk" to "I want mountains and a real hawk!"
I would like to see a "behind of scenes" of such an episode !!! because in the video they constantly are far away from any civilazation ... no electricity anywhere etc, while in the edit we see drone shots and gopros all the time.. did they have 50 new gopro batteries each ? Carrying all the necessary equipment looks complicated.. a jeep could follow them ? hard to believe they did this whole trip without external crew ?
Otherway, I absoluly LOVED it, I would like to do that, it looks so unreal... and who are these 3 dudes ? they dont look particulary famous ... are they fully sponsored or just rad mega rich talented kids who like travelling the world together?
@RedBurn: Agreed it wouldn't have happened without lightweight bikes, boats, tents, etc etc and we wouldn't have had the trip documented in this way without the tech so it is what it is
So far, I've watched two videos from Grand Canaria -- this one and Danny Macaskill's. The only conclusion I can draw from both is that it is a damn treacherous place to ride.
