  • @crazyskier537 It is about Chicago!!! Nothing ever looks as steep on camera. As a skier you should know this. I love Muir, bur Palos is great as well. You should change your name to stupidskier000.

  • @VoodooPolitico Umm, John Muir is in the "chicago area", and yes you mentioned chicago.

  • @crazyskier537 Its about CHICAGO. C H I C A G O. Get it? This is all there is to offer in CHICAGO. This segement is about riding in CHICAGO. Did I say CHICAGO? They are talking about the CHICAGO area. The show is called CHICAGO Tonight. About a book called MOUNTIAN BIKING IN CHICAGO. You know? CHICAGO. You make do with what you have. They have flat. Its geography. It cant be helped or changed. Did I say this is in CHICAGO? You know...CHICAGO.

  • "doesn't look that steep, but wait, look this way" i still don't see anything steep about that. This is a complete disgrace to real mtbing... how about showing some john muir at the minimum, or show a segment of real mountain biking from moab or north carolina... It's called MOUNTAIN biking for a reason...

  • for the longboarders

  • Paving? Are you nuts..?

  • how about pavin that biatch

    atleast the steep parts

  • why no mention of CAMBr? chicago area mountain bikers are the organization that take care and maintain these trails.

  • This guy is telling people to use both brakes . Especially the rear. This is advise on how to skid your bike and degrade the trails. Just like a car or motorcycle, the front is the main stopper and accounts for 60-70% of braking force. Also, going too slow down hill reduces the forward inertia of the bike so much that the bike starts getting knocked sideways by rocks instead of rolling straight over them. Enjoy the trails. Palos rocks!

  • ...funny
