looks like fun, until you got hit

 

[Skookum]

Yah no helmets it's all fun and games then your a vegetable. Plus shootin the gaps in pedestrian and auto traffic for kicks is lame. it brought back memories of how i used to ride when i was a dumb kid like them with couriers in Seattle years back. But from my eyes now i think it's pretty dumb and just not representing bicyclists well.

[aznfreerdr08]

That is seriously the best cycling video I've seen this year. Propers!

That is so crazy! i just watched it again. You know what freaks me out is watching the guy riding with his feet on his bars at the end.

He doesnt have any brakes and the only way to slow down are those cranks that are spinning out of control under him. CRAZY!!

Thats what riding a Fixie is all about ! , the real trick is getting your feet back on the spinning Cranks , Sounds a lot easier that it is .

There was some incredibly irresponsible behavior in that clip, in particular wedging into pedestrian traffic at speed, but it really makes me miss my Boston commuting days. I really want to ride Manhattan sometime.

[Yossarian]

that is insane

 

[Clark Kent]

Great Vid! Nice to see folks who aint scared to ride in traffic!

 

[GumbaFish]

Wow and I thought it was a little tense when I ride in moderate traffic and almost get hit about 3 times everytime i ride, and that is just for the sake of commuting. These people are doing this for fun, and in much worse conditions...insane

Priest? or was it Halford solo stuff?

That is what I am talking about. That is REALLY hard, especally when they are moving that fast!

That is crazy, and awsome, but it also has the sense of a bad impression for bikers.

Those guys are absolutely crazy, I pity their next of kin.
