Carlmont in NorCal actually, the two spots are very similar though after having been to both...

As a kid who grew up in the Bay Area and always admired your films, I truly appreciate this comment and hold it in the highest regard. Thank you Theo!

Desmond Dekker ftw

Hey man, Sorry to grave dig a 5 year old comment but I just wanted to say that you make an extremely valid point. Going down memory lane and seeing your comment made me feel like an absolute dick for editing those clips that way. That being said, I started my first office job a couple months ago, and I’m pretty sure everyone in the office thinks I do what the XC guys do in that clip. There’s nothing wrong with that (in fact I think they’d consider firing me if they knew I liked to ride off shit to get an adrenaline rush) but let’s face it the general public holds mountain biking maybe, 1 or 2 notches above roller blading on the badass spectrum. That’s because the XC guys are what they think when they hear mountain biking. And after all that, no one working in my office or any other office will see those clips and think, “Woah these guys go a little harder than what I though mountain bikers do.” Therefore, you are right, xc to dh is a dick comparison, and I guess I’m a total chode for that one.
