    LOCAL FLAVOR | Mountain Biking Bernina to Pontresina, Switzerland



    After our descent on the Bernina Express mountain bike trail we had a bite to eat at a Poschiavo restaurant called Hostaria del Borgo that does almost ALL local faire. Local meats, local potatoes, local salad, local wine… you get the point!

    We took the train from Poschiavo up to Ospizio Bernina and followed the Bernina Express route #673 NORTH back to Pontresina.

    If you look at this map we started near Lago Blanco / Ospizio Bernina and headed north: https://www.mtbproject.com/trail/7021579

      Dude, simply put that was an amazing series of videos! Got me inspired to go do my own (although a little smaller) and im heading out to Colorado this fall to go ride for a few days!! Thanks for the inspiration Brian. Keep up the good work!

      I just watched GMBN's video "The Best Kind Of Mountain Biking? Bike Park Vs Natural"
      My answer, watch BKXC! Natural is better. The view / scenery is breathless! m/

      Another great ride 👍😉😎. Oh I have some good news I graduated from a hardtail to a full suspension. The Good Lord blessed me with a 2018 giant stance 1. Be blessed

      HI Brian, I have a question if I let the commercials play and don't skip does that work out better for you, meaning you get more money, I will stop skipping them if so. Thanks

      So cool Brian. Been subscribed for a while but first time I've commented. Really like all of your videos but I think this one touched me the the most. Super sick scenery. I did a backpacking trip in all of those countries in back in 95. I can only imagine how cool it would have been to Mtb there. Thanks for putting me on the trail in virtual reality through your eyes. You're a down to earth, likable dude. Your communication skills are solid. That is part of why you have an advantage on your fellow YouTube comp, IMO. I know this sounds gay, but I feel a natural kinship to you in that we are approximately the same age, ability level as well as physical build. I guess I live vicariously through you in these videos haha. I live within 10 miles of Worldwide Cyclery and have been giving them business because of your relationship with them. Never really considered them due to their obscure location and other good bike shops I had relationships with. I have to say though that they are above and beyond the best MTB bike shop I've dealt with. They are a great bunch of guys who know their stuff.
      Keep being yourself and stay healthy! I know that you, like me, appreciate every ride that we can pull off without injury.

      I think of all the places you've been that I have seen this is place I'd pick to go. Just amazing! Do you have a favorite of all the places you've been?

      Brain thanks for the amazing trip through Italy, France and Switzerland. My two passions coming together trains and bikes lol. Been great rides and fantastic trails.

      Also the American Pia reference to name the ibis epic.

      Great adventures and great riding Brian! I just took a Mach 5.5, and a 6 to demo and def. going to try to find an Ibis shop here in NC (3 hrs from Pisgah) to demo an HD4.

      I know you rode the YT Capra out in Reno but would you consider these two (HD4/Capra) in the same/similar category to the Pivots? I'd love to get to ride an 18' Canyon Strive as well just gotta find "the one" that fits best overall before I break my piggy bank open.
