  • That's how we do that in Poland! Enjoy!

    youtube.com/watch?v=KZnrulbmXl­w

  • @MegaBombel

    The guy from the movie is Polish :)

  • 3:05 sandwich man :( miss that!

  • @pyromaneak47 you can also let your feet hang behind the rotating pedals. I do that all the time going down hills. But don't do it without brakes and don't let the pedals hit your legs. :) I also have a low geared Redline Monocog MTB converted to fixed gear. Great fun offroad and much less problems with stuff getting into the drivetrain. It just goes on and on in all weather types.

  • @pyromaneak47 it's not true that you get absolutely no rest. You can just follow the pedals around with your legs, without applying force. This is called pseudo coasting. In fact, with a fixie you have a very precise control of how much energy you spend on pushing the bike forward (or slowing it down). This is one of the "hidden features" you become addicted to.

  • @xxappleeyesxx And you need a reality check. There is no better way to get paid for thrills than this. Twats like us keep society moving and we rarely cause accidents because we know what we are doing. All bigger companies and organizations use us. No one can do this faster and cheaper than us.

  • that song is cringy as fuck. horrible. sick riding though.

  • If I pay you10 quid to take a package somewhere, and your face gets splattered over a car radiator grill....

    ... do I get my money back?

  • Why don't most cyclists stop at lights and abide by the Highway Code? Are they all so fucking arrogant ????

  • thanks for making auto drivers hate us cyclists even more. way to go.

  • @tommyogtigern

    anytime mate

  • The guy with the camera was on a motor bike - I guess? - he seemed to be able to catch up lots of times quite easily.

  • @lsbrother nah when he's accelerating you can see the camera moving side to side - they're both just really good

  • @lsbrother nope i was on a brakless fixed wheel

  • haha mad song.

  • What is the first song used in this video?? As it isn't DMX - Stop Being Greedy as advertised above.

  • @natecarter71 MC Rush Hour - ridin fixie

  • @hbxr1 where can i get that track from? Not on Itunes!

  • @hbxr1 Where can i get that track from??

  • @rdmcg1 its custom

  • What is the first song used in this video?? As it isn't DMX - Stop Being Greedy as advertised above

  • FUuuuuuCKKK I need this crazy song !!!

  • I would like to go there to do this from June till September..now I work as a messenger in Prague. Is this company accepting new applicants? How good do you have to know London?

  • 7:31 what is this song ? ???

  • the guy is in the zone

    thats fast. not how i rode at all..i rode real defensively back in the day. the camera guy ain't shabby either.

  • song sucks

  • wow, two nutcases.....pure awesomeness, which i could ride and navigate like that

  • I used to live in the area he's riding. He's running a lot of major roads' red lights. I wonder if he is alive today?

  • @scuba453 alive and well...still running reds ;)

  • @itsdayv are u still alive and well? i wanted to check since ur message 3weeks old.

  • @eaglefly1k yep still here still running reds :)

  • @itsdayv

    And giving other cyclists a bad name while you're at it. One of these days you're going to get an education in pain, arsehole!

  • @GhibliFan1 nevermind, you see, other cyclists already have a very bad name. Non messengers are the most moronic cyclists. You won't believe the shit I see every day. Women cyclists with a kid on the back, none of them wearing helmets, she has two filled plastic bags hanging on each bar and she's texting on the phone... But let's pick on the bike messengers, the most alert cyclists on the street. Fucking moron.

  • @nilo2209

    Yeah, OK...nothing about the fact their pay structure and bullish competition is making them jump reds left, right and centre - not to mention riding down the wrong side of the road and the rest of it. I like the way you hold up an extremely bad example of 'normal' cyclist to justify the shear stupidity of messengers. I don't care how alert they fancy themselves, they break the laws I go out of my way to observe for a living. Fucking pleb!

  • @GhibliFan1 all kinds of cyclists break the law here. Not to justify anything, that's just the way it is. I'm just saying: We're better at doing it. The pay structure is what makes the job fun. I do what I want and pay when I get busted. But actually I behave a lot. You can get another job if you have a problem doing what you do, I don't care.

  • @scuba453 . if there was better bicycle infrastructure he wont have to run red lights.

  • @bettytoo2

    he doesn't have to!

  • @lsbrother yes i do

  • lol tosser, since when did it become cool to be irresponsible? this is about as cool as drunk driving, get a job

  • @ixppxi in 06' a london bike messenger could earn about £1200 a month :)

  • @ixppxi hahahhahah running reds is my job you nobba

  • @itsdayv  hahaha love it mate

  • @ixppxi mine also, whats your job? bet you work in an office, and then some dude comes in, and brings you your new gay bussines cards and and you watch enviously as he strolls out and rides on bathed in sunlight singing, 'fuck you ixppxi'

  • @ixppxi no no no drunk driving is stupid because theres no rush no fun doing 70 miles an hour downhill on a longboard with the cops trying too bust you now thats a fucking rush don't bash it till you try it mate.

  • so whats the name of that frist song?? because i love it

  • great camera man. lol

  • whats your ratio? nice vid!

  • this kinda riding gives me a hardon.! thats probably why I do the same shit every day. :)

  • this kid means business, riding through red lights with traffic like that, you are lucky to be alive!!

    but what the hell man what a great job - get to do that everyday.

  • enybody know a agency that hires bike messengers in london? a website or phone number?

  • DHL in background lol...

    U just get better by doin this job. Thats all.

    No mystery at all ^^

  • WHAT DOES A BIKE MESSENGER DO?

  • We use to deliver court documents, and contracts that were very time sensitive. White collar fat cats would spare no expense to ensure their docs made it to their destination on time! Million dollar deals use to hang in the balance and urban heros were born... However now, much of this is done over the internet, so the bike messenger has become nearly obsolete. Now they deliver sandwiches or whatever the secretary is too lazy to drop off on her lunch hour.

  • @bugs9410 messengeresses.

  • kool am starting out this bike messenger thing after losing my license am gonna do this for a while am gonna need practice i know but would also like help and soon you guys will see vids like this more

  • lol funny song "ill make ur window explode" ahhh thats great.

  • :-))))) JOKER

  • dream on lol

  • this is without doubt the best courier video on youtube. the guy is so fast and the cameraman following isn't bed either. more!

  • Anyone know how much money you can make as a bike messenger?

  • back in the day when I was doing it I was making $1500 AU a week

  • You're kidding! that's a lot of money. I ride a lot anyway, might aswell get paid for it.

  • It's in London: BT Tower. Congestion zone markings on the road. big red buses.

  • look closer my friend, i was replying to the event that "dicko6ft7" was advertising, he didnt put the name of the city, so i did.....

  • this guy is nuts, skillful yes, but the problem with riding like this is you can never account for other crazies on the road just like yourself, if we all went round like this, well, the end wouldn't be good.

  • Sori to ask but can anyone tell what shoes and pedals he's using? cheers!

  • im not sure about the shoes, but the pedals look like eggbeaters or ATACs

  • time atacs

  • 48:15? So unnecessary....

  • Ridin fixie song is gay but nice vid.

  • how sad

  • where did u get that song from ?

    fixie for life

  • wat bag r u using? need 1 4 courierin any advice pls

  • It's called "Messenger Bag", sling model bag.

  • first song is too jokes.

  • BIG VID

  • All looks like too much like hard work to me. Nice to see the video finishes just as they pass my local the Shakespeares Head. After a ride like that a few pints of ale wouldn't go amiss.

  • the first song is the one i need

  • where can i get that song? i need it for a ride

  • i always have admiration for the camera man in these vids. Got to say id never ride in that traffic brakeless. You carry your balls in a wheelbarrow. fuck that.

  • dude

    nice ride

  • hahah thats kinda gay... the song. but i like it :D hahah.

    nice. :]

    i wanna be a messanger!!!!

  • lol at this song

  • How have I not heard this song before? This is special...

  • what does a messenger do. just ride around?

  • pick up and drop off packages/envelopes.

    and ride around.

  • 1st pick up at conway st,w1 then 2nd at marylebone rd,nw1 then 3rd pob at 10 cavendish pl (clarins?),w1...

  • And people wonder why cyclists get such bad rep, might be something to do with shooting across red-lights, not showing respect for other road users, riding on pavements.

    Don't get me wrong I ride a bike to, I aint no messenger boy, but even so I don't treat the road like I'm some sort of urban cowboy, cause you know what happens to cowboys . . the y get dead at some point, good luck with ya riding, but seriously think about others and not yaself when ya riding

  • paid per job mate...you gotta be fast! the lights were not red they were all green!

  • What about the first one?

  • im colour blind

  • shut up

  • lol

  • strawberry-green

  • haha

  • no im not

  • they need to get from A to B delivering package as quick as possible, so jumping red light is almost mandatory.

  • Is this a UK thing where bikes can't ride through reds. In New York it is completely meaningless.

  • no, you can ride through reds. but some people choose not to 'cause it's dangerous

  • of course you're not allowed to ride a bicycle through a red light. Who on EARTH told you otherwise? Also, you're not allowed to ride on the pavement.

  • well i know you're not, but the police don't chase people down for it, do they?

  • Of course they do. If a police car sees a bicyclist riding through a red light, that's an offense. It's against the law and they crack down on it now moreso than ever.

  • well as a cyclist and police officer, i know which of the two gets the benefit.

    i know it's against the law, but police don't try to catch any of the cyclists because in the busy streets of london a cyclist can get anywhere whereas the police (usually in a car) cannot

  • You get an on the spot fine now if an officer catches you on the pavement where I'm from, and there's no way you could get away with going through a red...

  • Where is that then? In London the proper police do not give a shit. Sometimes they will put cycle cops on busy junctions for that specific purpose, otherwise they don't care - they have proper criminals to catch. I have been pulled over once, but that was a bike cop. If I see a police car I won't run the red, but I have done it lots of times and then noticed a cop car after and they never chase.

  • yer but they dont seem to c that 1 of the reasons why ya go through red lights is to get a head start on the traffic behind ya so ya dont get moed down by that dick head in a taxi

    ha n just watch them try n catch ya.
