Badass Bike Messengers in New York

[Chucker69er]

Really cool video. Surprised at the amount of hostility some people feel towards all sorts of bicycle riders on this and several other sites though...

[DemonicDevilpain]

@GoingTerminal

What's the music?

[carsonsflyinghigh]

I would knock them over too..bunch of jerks!!!

[FR2T]

now do this on a fixie. It will start a new kind of messengers in NYC. The NYC Hipster Bike Messengers :)

[dtaylortf]

Great video, music ruins it tho

[Mauledbyjesus]

These kinds of riders are the reason drivers and pedestrians hate road cyclists.

[TaTTo4eK]

wow, crazy!

[gotjumpedyet]

at least you'll be remembered for being cool and a dick................... hopefully lol

[soberocsta]

that is nice

[badonkadonkj420]

its sick. but repost, full video search for: bike messengers are on crack

[TheFlipize]

RESPECT THE TRAFFIC!

[TheTwistedKIM]

If i where a pedestrian, and saw ppl on bikes racing towards me like that, ill push em off the bike, and call them all the bad words in the book.......After that, ill go home and see them on Youtube, thinking ..."Thees guys ROCKS, they are AMAZING"

Weird World....ehhy..?

[Fartmastergb]

@TheTwistedKIM ya dude dats cuz when u see them while ur walkin its just like FUK DOZ GUYZ FO HAVIN BIKES DIZ IS THE CITY!!!!!!!! ya know but then ya look at it from there perspective and its cool.. but at the same time there still annoying to see..... especially when they pay no mind to traffic at alllllllllll

@TheTwistedKIM

If you were a pedestrian... in the middle of a crowded NYC road?

[envoy3]

All those pedestrians look pissed off. Same with all the drivers. THERE'S MORE PEOPLE ON THE ROAD THEN YOU YEA KNOW. I don't see why it's so god damn hard for you guys to stop at red lights like you're supposed to. If I were driving in new york(Which I'd never do for obvious reasons) I'd deliberately hit any biker that cut in front of me at a red light.

[StrayCubone]

@envoy3 Damn youd murder someone with your car for running redlights? Smoke a joint a try and put that in perspective.

[envoy3]

@StrayCubone I wouldn't hit them to the degree of killing them. but if they are driving like that, then it seems highly likely that they have collisions with traffic due to their negligence and arrogance..

[MegaDyneSystemsExe]

@envoy3 "negligence and arrogance"?

The negligence and arrogance of people in vehicles far outweigh any I've ever seen from bike messengers and I've worked downtown in three major metropolitan cities; San Francisco, San Diego and L.A.

I'm pretty damn sure that anyone in the bike messenger business knows damn well the dangers that come with the territory and develop skills to avoid it so they don't end up in massive pain lying in a hospital bed... and they all know that bikes never win vs. cars.

[envoy3]

@MegaDyneSystemsExe I work as a courier and I see way more cyclist related infractions and ignorance then drivers. Look at this video.Those assholes are ripping through redlights,cutting off pedestrians,going in the wrong lane of traffic and if a driver complains they would probably rip their mirrors off. Do you see any cars ripping through pedestrian crosswalks while people are walking? Running redlights? Going in the wrong lane of traffic or deliberately hitting cyclists for avoiding the laws?

[MegaDyneSystemsExe]

@envoy3 I've never been to NY. I won't repeat my entire comment but I'll reiterate; the negligence and arrogance of people in vehicles far outweigh any I've ever seen from bike messengers in the cities I've lived in. Your observations comparing actions of the bicyclist against the driver are flawed. They both ride the streets and have to obey pretty much the same laws, however, it's 'apples and oranges'. It's like comparing a 'smart car' to an 18-wheeler. Seriously. I don't see those things you

[MegaDyneSystemsExe]

@envoy3 ...mentioned because 4-wheeled vehicles just can't feasibly get away with it without constantly and consistently maiming and killing people by the hundreds if not thousands. Yeah, I don't see cars ripping through pedestrian crosswalks while people are walking unless it's a senile old man/woman who shouldn't be driving anymore anyways. I mean, c'mon man, lol... get real. Were you even remotely serious with that question?

[MegaDyneSystemsExe]

@envoy3 Seriously tho', the "soccer mom" mentality has really infected the population of this country. That's on top of a regrettably obese population that have a raging, bitter attitude towards bicyclists probably because they hate seeing people do what they can't or won't do because they like expending the minimal amount of physical effort just to stay alive.

Also, were you serious about bike messengers ripping off car side mirrors if they hear a driver complain to them? That happens often?

[MegaDyneSystemsExe]

@StrayCubone this guy obviously has a personal issue with perspective. There was so much wrong with his retort to comment that I had to reply three freaking times and I still haven't done it justice.

And the 'joint' thing was good advice. Seriously.

[sum41Rck]

@envoy3 the job is all about seed, these guys stop at reds, they slow down their job becomes obsolete, might as well jsut send a package by car.

[hpdexter5]

That is crazy shit!
