Art of a Buenos Aires Bike Messenger

Filmed by O.B. 1, an ex Chicago bike messenger now takin it to the calles of Buenos Aires. All footage taken with my digital camera. Shakey at times due to riding with one hand. I´ve learned that if you can hustle Chicago, you can hustle BA tambien, a city with equivalent insanity to NYC.

First clips are my barrio (La Boca). Had to show the Boca Junior Stadium in the 1st clip, 2nd clip is more of my hood, and 3rd clip is the community center where I pass my days. The end is my obviously my apt and my adopted cat, little brando.

I made this for my dear friends and family back in Chicago so you all can see where I live. Hope you all enjoy this little flick.

Buen video, loco. la música no está mal; pero sí, hubiese estado lindo algún temita autóctono. Te comiste un par de puteadas por ahí, ¿no? (3:37 y 4:12) xD

So awesome man, I lived there for awhile and I was near the Boca stadium three days a week. I volunteered at a children's center called Club Acorn that is three blocks from the Stadium. Took the 10 there from Las Heras and Colonel Diaz all the time!

i am 100% impressed with your riding skills especially since you have a camera in one hand. excellent camera work and video too. you could be a professional film maker.

I thought I wasn't the only schmuck (no offence) filming from a bike in Buenos Aires! (I haven't posted any here) I even like singing Brazilian musica popular while I'm doing it AND you're wearing the same trousers/pants as me!

I liked it. (My stuff was often noticeably shakier -I read about these "saddlecam" things-beanbag-tripods-subsitu­tes that absorb virbations while you film.)

Thank you, saludos a Brando.
