This one is for the All-Mountain guys.
Strahan Loken rides the Rocky Mountain Altitude 90 equipped with 2011 Race Face carbon all mountain SIXC components. Filmed and edited on Vancouver Island, BC by Aaron LaRocque.
Great Colours, Great Quality, Great Scenery, and a Great Video overall, what more could you ask for in a VOD? Nothing else!
love it!!! that´s why i love mtb we can ride 365 days. Shimano will be jealous just because of combining bikes and fishing lol
Yeah you can but i hate the salt on the streets in the Winter.
This video makes a good feeling while watching. Riding, fishing, chillingen in the nature..what more?

I believe this is VOD because its very, very different. Very rarely do videos get VOD that show a journey or travel, it's more about downhilling or street, or dirt jumps.
Another reason why it's awesome is because there are so little all mountain movies around, especially ones that get VOD.
Aaron, this is awesome!
Why some people always call cross country to all mountain?? I never saw XC racers doing that kind of jumps and riding with that flow! Nice VOD !
haha i find this funny dont get the wrong image tho
he has a tube for a mud guard and hes has all 2011 gear on his bike damn thats priceless!
sick vid love larock edits!
i bet if all the xc racers werent tired as hell when riding they would be a lot more flowy. also there seats are too damn high. these both hold true to me anyway
Too bad XC rider's have a lot more stamina then most of us here. Enjoy the video boys, don't be hating it.
All mountain! that exactly what i ride!
Say what you want, but earning your turns is worth it and feels better, no doubt.
great vod
wtf did i get neg propped? i dont care about props, but is this untrue? i never said this was xc did i? a was talking about xc dumbasses. wats funny is that this is gonna get neg propped too. and there will probably not a reasonable explaination either.
Excellent video, captures what mountain biking is really all about. Getting out side and enjoying all the outdoor elements. Not all of us have a downhill mountain to shred on, so we make the best of what nature has to offer us in our own area, and that's what so many of us can relate to. Would love to see more videos like this, very inspiring.
This mountain and trail is in danger of being opened to OHVs (quads, MX and 4X4).

These are the Buzz shorts from the spring summer 2010 collection. They'll be in online/in stores as of March next year.
This is so great. All the reason to bike. I enjoy the colors, fresh air, fishing and camping with the best part exploring on the Mtb in the GREAT OUTDOORS!
Look at the dudes G-ride, black on black. I want a 4x4
How could there be anything better? I want to go right now. I am excited. Roll it till da wheels fall off! 4evr

This was so beautiful ... great relaxing song, great camera, skilled rider, wild nature and that fire making and salmon fishing scene, it really impressed me, i was just staring with opened mouth.
Huge respect to you man, first time in long term i saw something unique and different!
Thanks
Best VOD in a long time.
rare to see nice "trail" riding in the VODs cause all ths kids want is DJ, and DH.
love it MORE PLEASE.

Well I thought All mountain is about riding in the mountains (preferably high ones) and this looks quite flat as for AM, especialy on a an XC marathon bike with custom wide bars. So please stop categorizing, it's just a release of AM group set. This is a one great piece of riding in superb scenery, and the video is just amazing! Makes me want to ride.
woOO,,,that is one amazing ride! like what we should all do in our life time! going fast is great but this one just shove the spirit of mountain biking out... mountain, nature, autumn, and a mountain bike!!! totally amazing!!!
I like jumps and extreme riding, but this story of all mountain rider and fisherman in one person is awesome. Good scenes, good music, good story ..... The art of MountainBiking was born.
Awesome! Fall, beautiful all mtn riding, and fishing! Another great northwest video that reminds me why its so awesome up here! VOD!
I'm not saying this because I now finally own a Rocky Mountain, but when it comes to all the bike brands out there, Rocky Mountain is definitely the coolest and most respected brand in mountain biking.
i find that this is one of the best videos ever made, the only thing i can say is vod, also what is the name of the song???
cheers men!!!
cheers men!!!
What are the specs on the rack build? It looks like a great, simple design. Spread the word (or get a manufacturer to produce it commercially).
commercial or not, im glad you dug out this vid, my favourite two hobbies in one vid , Faved this vid!

Biking and setting fires................just kididng, its fishing, cant beat nature!
lovin the catch and release trout,. lovin the bike, lovin the whole video! best vod in my eyes for a while
i think that one made everyone tear up a bit, that was just awesome, i love dh but rides like that are what mtn biking really is
Different to other VOD's but i loved it, a nice change, makes me want to ride now, Anyone know what the bike rack on the car was at the start? and also whats the song, thanks...
that has got to be the best quality VOD i have ever seen!!!
its good to see some all-mountain riding (and fishing lol) get some recognition...
WELL DONE!!!!

Well, it is raining outside and cold, do I sit indoors or get my bike out and ride it? Just watched this and I am getting the bike out. Amazing video, just love everything about it and the trail looked great.

This is what autumn riding is all about. Have a ride, make a fire, do some fishin' (if you have a lake with any fish in!) then just keep on ridin'. That's the life.
[Reply]
Better to cook it if you catch it, rathing that toying with someting just for fun. (And that looked like a tasty fish).
[Reply]
This is a Great VOD. Nice to see something other than DH or DJ or street. Only problem is it makes me want to move out to BC even more.
wow man i was watching this video and feels great! i wanna same life: to get out an afternoon and ride my bike bike in the forest. GREAT VIDEO!!
Best VOD ive seen in quite awhile!!
Awesome riding, awesome scenery, great music and you captured the "lifestyle" side perfectly!!

Ever time you make a video Larock...im just always amazed with what you come up with...and this is no exception...Amazing bro 
Excellent video! It really captures the beauty of the outdoors and makes me want to get out and enjoy it even more.
this entire vid is amazing, the song, riding, bike, scenery everything. some people forget how fun all mountain is anyway cuz all they see is tons of jumps and stuff
I sincerely didn't want that video to end. I just got back from a ride very much like that but minus the fishing. Autumn, for the win.

Hi everyone- just to clarify- the rack is designed, manufactured and PATENTED by NORTH SHORE RACKS INC.- check out www.northshoreracks.com.
The rack built and used in the video by Strahan Loken is a copy of the North Shore Rack design, which is patent infringement.
North Shore Racks is a family-owned business located in North Vancouver, BC. The racks are manufactured locally, not overseas. The demand for our racks has grown exponentially therefore predictions of sales are hard to determine until they start flying off the shelves. We take pride in our product and hope that fellow mountain bikers will appreciate the blood, sweat and tears that have gone in to our awesome racks.

I thought that to constitute a patent infringement the rack, which is modeled around the design of the North Shore racks but not a direct copy, it needs to be commercially sold or used.
The rack is nothing more than someone building something cool at home and using it for personal use.
Sure, some credit is due to North Shore racks, but not in this video. The video was about Race Face and Rocky Mountain Bikes, not bike racks.
Hi again,
The definition of "Infringement" under the Canadian Intellectual Patent Office is as follows:
"Patent infringement happens if someone makes, uses, or sells your patented item without your permission in a country that has granted you a patent, during the term of the patent."
Basically what this means that in order to make something which is patented you must have prior permission, even if it is for personal use. There is no need to profit from or to use commercially to infringe upon a Patent.
See link: www.cipo.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/cipointernet-internetopic.nsf/eng/wr01091.html#sec21
The rack made and used in the video did not receive any such permission and is a clear infringement of our Patent.
While you are right about this amazingly fantastic video being about Race Face and Rocky Mountain Bikes, there are a lot of comments and misinformation above about the bike rack in the video, prompting my response.

Hi there, our company has patented posting in internet forums on topics relating to patents. We'll kindly ask that you remove your post and infringing material. Thank you.

you know hes a good filmer and editer when he turns a less interesting part of the sport into a very entertaining movie
I ride DH, XC and Dirt and love them all as much as each other. XC/AM is very sociable and when going up you appreciate the scenery. Well most of us do.
Sorry - we should clarify - SIXC is technically a 2011 OEM product, but is a 2010 product for retailers.
