You guys might remember Drew.
A few months ago I held a video contest where two of you would win bikes. Drew entered on behalf of someone else—a teenager at his local trails.
Drew’s contest video was not only popular in the comments, but also successful in the cold unforgiving land of YouTube.
Although great riding, videography, editing, and planning worked in his favor, Drew just barely missed the cut for winning a bike…or did he?
The two contest winners won Release 3’s but Diamondback decided to supply one more bike for Drew. This one is a Release 2. It’s basically the same bike with different components.
For instance, instead of a Sram X1 derailleur, it comes with Sram GX. Not bad.
As promised, Drew got the bike dialed, tested it to make extra sure, and then found the surprise recipient. As you can see, Matt has been riding an entry level XC bike at the dirt jumps.
So Drew’s story panned out after all, and now Matt has a new story of his own. We’ll check on our other finalists later this summer, but for now that concludes this contest.
If you want to see an extended cut of Drew’s reveal, click the link in the description to head over to his channel. Finally, thanks to Diamondback for making this contest possible. Their bikes run the full gamut, from entry level hardtails to bikes like mine that can handle anything. So consider supporting a company that supports riders like Matt. Thanks for riding with me today and I’ll see you next time.
