Can’t stand him. Not funny at all but tries so hard. Rad rider though, can’t take that away.

I couldn't f*cking believe what you wrote. Just checked one up's site and I still can't fathom it. Bacon?????! Serously? Like a piece of scrap rubber or cloth couldn't do the job. I know ya'll are meat eaters anyway but supporting the murder of animals to make goddamn tire plugs is close to the pinnacle of human stupidity. Good thing Yoann is vegan too.

@nhlevi: This is satire, right? I can't tell anymore.

@f*ckingsteve: No you're just another f*cking steve who doesn't get it.

@nhlevi: Google is your friend. Maybe you should take a quick gander on the old interweb before making a jack a$$ out of yourself. Just sayin

Jody is awesome. He halted up about 20 + bags of concrete to fill in a hole in the rock face. He puts his signature 3 jumps in almost every trail he has built. Rode this trail at least 10 years ago. He is awesome. Great work Jody. If you’re in the sea to sky corridor and you need some electrical work done, look him up. Better electrician then a trail builder.

Concrete ain't cool though:/

He was more excited about that skinny that he's been on some massive drops in other videos.

I was almost dissapointed but luckily you said tak tak tak at the last minute on your first section. it's not an ITG description without tak tak tak!

Don't forget chook chook chook!

13:15 “and here we see the Barelli in it’s natural habitat “

If I were to guess the french word for plank, it would have been planche.. I'm surprised Yoann wasn't able to reverse engineer that one.

nsteele (Jul 17, 2020 at 10:05)

Maybe start carrying a folding Silky saw in your pack? Very helpful in clearing small blowdowns.

shredddr (Jul 17, 2020 at 10:43)

Jody's an electrician now i think - be cool to hear from him here or elsewhere. He should go ride it with Yoann...

Trudeez (Jul 17, 2020 at 17:07)

I had two thoughts initially:

1. Holy crap Yoann sounds so much like Hank Azaria's scuba character from "Along Came Polly."

2. Holy crap that's so much wood. That landing has to be the biggest wood feature ever.

unfknblvbl (Jul 17, 2020 at 20:40)

As sad as it is to see him leave racing, I am absolutely pumped to see more of this kind of riding from him. Always having fun and it's contagious. The trail riding version of Ratboy

Sshredder (Jul 19, 2020 at 9:38)

I've rode plenty of janky loose woodwork. Worse thing to do is walk on it and jump up and down. The structure will hold the weight of rolling tires no problem. This is a sport based on risk right? You don't like the jank ? Leave it alone go ride some place else. Keep it gnarly dude.

loamaddict (Jul 17, 2020 at 10:09)

You nailed it Yo! you almost ate shit on this step up ahahah

Elbeciko (Jul 17, 2020 at 16:03)

Probably cuz it was make for 26 wheels...

soldenreturn (Jul 17, 2020 at 21:48)

This guy is the Steve Irwin of mountain biking!! Cheers Yoann I just broke my collar bone, it’s good to see I can come back from injury even stronger!!

RayDolor (Jul 17, 2020 at 10:18)

As Usual my favorite PB performer, Yoan!!!!

Davetheripper (Jul 18, 2020 at 15:32)

“I’m going to fix it with my dick”. Typical Frenchman

Jolinwood (Jul 18, 2020 at 3:29)

I dont even know what to say! I feel fear and happiness at the same time watching this, and even after watching it, stay well dude!! Thank you!

Kramz (Jul 18, 2020 at 13:55)

"It was super safe hahahahahahahah!"

LMAO. I don't know how he stays so positive. What a guy! I could learn from him.

Kramz (Jul 18, 2020 at 14:26)

Yoann Barelli's nickname, is, "Too French, too strong". LMAO.

kingbike2 (Jul 17, 2020 at 15:24)

That was a lot of fun to watch! Incredible woodwork and your enjoyment is palpable!

themegawatt (Jul 18, 2020 at 8:16)

Rode this trail about 5 years ago, it was super sketchy then too. It's a work of art.

thegeologist (Sep 14, 2020 at 17:05)

@yoannbarelli you are a huge inspiration your riding and attitude always put a smile on my face!

MrBaker87 (Jul 17, 2020 at 10:48)

OH MYGAWWD YOANN told the world about a SECRET TRAIL. Such a loamer. OUTRAGE!

MrBaker87 (Jul 17, 2020 at 12:16)

This was intended on a being a joke. Yoann seems like a rad dude and that trail has obviously been abandoned by the original builder for many years. Looks good to go and he gave no indication of where it was. Good work Yoann! Look forward to seeing the rehab on the trail as well as future videos!

barbarosza (Jul 17, 2020 at 19:30)

Yoann why do you refer to yourself in third person ?

)))

etan (Jul 17, 2020 at 21:34)

Yoann ‘Into the wild gnar’ McCandless....

danielstutt (Jul 19, 2020 at 4:04)

Yoann single handedly keeping real MTBing alive.

PaulieAU (Jul 19, 2020 at 4:09)

Awesome track and riding.

Pcurt27 (Jul 19, 2020 at 15:48)

If I eat those same berries will I be able to ride like him?

concretesystem (Jul 19, 2020 at 21:31)

Who ever built that trail wow that's alot of work. Skilz

nickmalysh (Sep 16, 2020 at 15:22)

Best thing on Pinkbike so far

Jacquers (Jul 17, 2020 at 23:53)

Much more guts and skills than me. I just hope I don't open the PB website one day to read that Yoann seriously injured or killed himself.

slowtime (Jul 18, 2020 at 22:43)

Great riding. Too much talk and trying to be funny.

docnik (Jul 18, 2020 at 16:56)

Be better for the kiddos without all the swearing. Nice riding.

Captain65 (Jul 19, 2020 at 1:17)

It’s not swearing if it’s your second language

docnik (Jul 20, 2020 at 10:48)

@Captain65: Let him have a sit down with Scott Morrison and say "what the blo@dy hell, you are an old f*cking b!tch a@@ c#nt, you stupid mother f@cker, and your wife is a fat retarded tw@t". Then he can explain to him that it's not really swearing cause it's his second language and so he should take no offense.

docnik (Jul 20, 2020 at 10:52)

@Captain65: besides moron, he already said in his video "sorry for all the swearing". Looks like he realizes it, and needs to tone it down.
