New York City with no people

[antiaverage1]

Really, this highlights for me the ridiculousness of rush hour. Everyone being required or thinking they should get in at the same time instead of staggering it causes a huge mess. Then again, staggered arrivals at the office would reduce co-working time. Our current method for getting stuff done is a mess.

Eerie, yet peaceful; serene even.

This has to be a weekend. That part is pretty dead at 7am on a Saturday.

Must be weird living in a city of millions, and then just a short bike ride early in the morning shows it being well, mostly abandoned.. Reminds me of the film I am Legend though, must have been quite a ride! thanks for sharing!

[AdrianAwesome69]

Wow.

[SilverGunZoO]

and people say earth is overpopulated xP

[M1ST3RHYDE]

This Is really cool,. It reminded me of The last time I was in N.Y. (too long ago)~:

I would love to get up At 6 just to walk around to feel like I was in A Scary Movie But I was never so Lucky as you to have it that Dead. My only wish was that I saw the need for thaking Video let alone Pictures.

Thanks for the cool Video, I needed A good memory spark.

Lol, people don't understand you or look weird to you if you don't have got a bike, here in the Netherlands.

[Lahirien]

Awesome! If you had had a steadicam and had done some tracking shots, this video would not have looked out of place in a movie.

[DWTDmitri]

@Lahirien: The Sony HDR-SR11E and HDR-XE*** have got a very good stabilization and are full-HD. But the mine is defect, so I don't know how te stabilization is when it works correctly...

A steadycam is not as cheap as you think maybe...

[drtyse4]

Beautiful video!!!!

[paullongball]

Felt just like flying, thanks for the ride! ;D

[Drarky]

Amazing and inspiring :)

[rattletree]

This is great. I wonder what was going through the mind of that lone car you passed. I'm actually surprised there weren't many many bike riders out there enjoying it. Was there a gathering of riders somewhere else and you opted for the lone ride?

[nwagoner]

Beautiful. Makes me homesick.

[michaelkearney]

beautiful.

[Flashing blue and red lights]

Sir may I see your license please? Are you aware you went through a red light back there? :-)

Seriously though, great vid. Makes me want to buy a bike. Sure beats the treadmill at the gym, doesn't it?

[fatfeistyfemme]

Love it. It's vaguely creepy. I keep expecting to see a zombie when you pan to the right or left.

[dereksivers]

Not a helmet cam, I actually held my video camera in my left hand and steered with my right. :-)

(And yeah that's the Chrysler building in the opening photo.)

[debisavannah2]

must have been a Sunday... cause weekdays have traffic in NYC at 7am

[daryleackerman]

Is that the Chrysler building on the opening shot? I've never seen it from that angle before. Looks neat.

[phylobeans]

What a lovely ride, thanks for sharing this, Derek. Was that a helmet cam?

[Scottjames79]

Very cool.
