  • “As soon as you come in contact with a Shit-ass driver….It’s made me kinder…”

    Awesome.

  • The chain on his bike with the messenger chain ring is a tad bit loose…

  • Is the main bike in this video a custom? Details, please.

  • Ditto. What kind of frame is that? The gunmetal looking one with the red Deep-Vs…

  • I don’t think he’s really ever had a non-bike orgasm. They’re pretty awesome.

    So I hear….

  • The bike is a Brooklyn Machine Works Gansta Track.

    Its as solid as they come.

    Wheels are b43s by velocity.

    Can anyone guess the crankset? haha

  • what a bunch of self absorbed wank

  • Man if that video would’ve went on any longer it might have cried.

  • Tell me that was a joke…?

    So, simply by riding a bike with no freewheel, this guy has become a cross between Super-Man (heightened awareness and “seeing things before they happen”) & Mother Theresa (kinder, empathetic, presumably nice to children and small animals)…

    “I feel there’s something missing in my life”.
    Like friends?
    Gainful employment?
    A sense of perspective?

    I’ve been riding, jumping and falling off bikes for 40 years and have never once called a bike “the machine”; This guy says it about 5 times.
    “WELCOME TO THE MACHINE!”

    The fixie jihadis. What a bunch of self-referential Muppets.

  • So,Loopy
    You have 40 years on a Bike and you have that much hate and bitterness just screaming to get out huh? What did you fall on?

    Gainful employment? WTF Dude.Lets all get in the rat race so we can serve Loopy his Beer,wash his SUV and thank him for his Zen-like wisdom of 40 year bike thing he did…

    Give up Bikes man,or stay on the sidewalk at least.
