One durable person. One social graph. Many communities—and every way people speak, share, listen, write, gather and remember.
If there is one video you watch this weekend. I hope it will be this one. This stuff is amazing. To watch these bike messengers running through the streets of manhattan is amazing. But don't just take my word for it. Check it out for yourself.

ENJOY!!! :D
:OhMy: I give it an 8.5/10 on the cool-o-meter
Re: Bicycle drag race through Manhattan
Crazy video, there were a few close calls there. Bike messengers are some pretty crazy cats.
You got that right, Those guys are nuts. I think the 'welcome to the jungle' music fits perfectly with the video.
Those motherfuckers love to run red lights and yell at you when you're crossing the street. I've seen them run people over and just keep going...
Sorry, but as a regular Manhattan pedestrian they're more menace than mystique.
You think they're crazy? Come take a look at the students here...
Hombre !! claro que la gano Fidel !! si no fue el quien mas???
yao iz right ... i've been in Netherlands many times ... the bikers are mad over there!! :|
Hahaha..I'm one of them. Get angry car drivers shouting their horns at me all the time...put up the finger and continue pedalling!
Though watching the video gave me an adrenaline rush, too...man, that is really hellacool. Just go with the flow and leave your brains behind.
Hey Xestrella: No entiendo ni un karacho! No hablo Espagnol! But I have a lot of friends that speak Spanish and have been to Latin America...for periods of 6 months to a year. I'm the only geek focussing on Africa...but i'll be in Ghana from june till the end of december next year! YI HA!
My friend that has been in Cuba for 6 months taught me the Fidel expression.
man I've gotta try that someday... :) :D
It does kinda make me wanna get a bike when I move to NY.
I guess the netherlands are a pretty insane place too.
One of the countries with the highest bycicle density, and imagine all those druken students riding their wrecks on the road like maniacs or totally deranged looneyz... :mrgreen:
theyre crazy :lol: thanks for the link man
No problem guys. I had a buddie hook me up with it and thought you all would get a kick out of watching it.
