Blake is one of THE best presenters there is.
I can’t think of anyone else, in any sport, news or YouTube place I would prefer to listen to.

Blake needs a YouTube award. Pure positivity.

Hey Gmbn Blake! Mega thanks for sending it on the fatbike! Yes to the mega fatalanche! Also please if you can do a Nukeproof Scout and Canyon Dude vid! It would be mega interesting to see slo-mo of both tire types side by side taking the same line through various rocky sections! Blake is the man to bring it to us! Ride ride ride!

Thank you, Blake for sharing the fat love. Fatties rule! It’s the most fun bike I’ve ever owned.

Love Blake's ride videos. I have that exact bike, so I can imagine how sketchy this must have been. That being said, the Dude is a great all around bike if you ride a lot of blues and greens. It's a 68.5° head tube, so it's not set up for mach chicken, but that's what makes it nice for livening up some of the otherwise less engaging trails. And like he said, the extra tire volume really makes it a fair bit more comfortable than your average XC hardtail.

Listening to Blake trying to not drop the F bomb was brilliant. Fair Play to Blake, Rich and Neil for trying different challenges on the Fort Bill WC track 👍

[gregm]

Gee is made of different stuff to us mere mortals! Get well soon Gee. Back stronger than ever! 💪

[erikanzenmtb]

As soon as I saw the title I knew it would be Blake

[stuartmcnamara]

Awesome! Proper honest fun day out with Blake. Don't we all need a friend like him?

[mgirard]

Man, like they say, ride it like you steal it! But, the best fat bike experience is riding it in our beautiful Canadian winter ❄️ with studded tires. Blake my man, you should put this on your “to do” liste. Keep on riding!

Does the wallride
😀🔥🤘

Riding fat tires has broadened our horizons here. It’s opened up so much more riding in the desert southwest for us. Areas that were not accessible via the old skinnier tires we had been riding for decades. Sand dunes and sandy washes with islands of prestine singletrack are now fun to ride and easy to get to. Truly the go anywhere all terrain, all season bikes. Everyone should have at least one nice fat bike in their quiver. So much fun💥💥💥

Fantastic Blake, you've just convinced me to click "Buy Now" on a pair of Minions for my Trek Farley.
I'd love to see you ride the MegaAvalanche on a Fattie!

HOLY CRAP DUDE!! That was intense! Dam nice job surviving to the bottom - there looked to be some hairy moments in there but f*-me you were pinning it! Top draw.

[skooterbrah]

Of course we are going to say "yes" to you doing the Mega Avalanche on a fat bike!
