    I appreciate people who live life on the edge like that. He's skilled and tries not to affect anyone else, that's cool in my book.

      Steel Rain to go nuts in the middle of traffic is what I call "tries not to affect anyone else" too! It's 100% cool in everyone's book!
      btw nice photo, man, you must be #1 hoolingan in your area, real baddie >:o

    I've seen people drive like this guy rides in London all the time. Difference is he's not angry and swearing at you because you've slowed him down. He just cycles around you, job done.
    And those who say 'if he crashes he deserves it' maybe but how many fatal we're caused by cars this year. A massive ton more.

    I'm 24, work as a full time engineer and still ride my bike everywhere. Best form of transport and believe me, it is much faster than any form of motorised vehicle during rush hour traffic. Plus a good workout too.

    Not sure why every video about messengers on YT has angry people being aggressively negative. If you hate people who ride fast so much, why even click on the video? What else could you possibly expect to find?

  • @EmoverePictures
    @EmoverePictures 11 лет назад +2

    You are 100% correct. I've been cycling, fixed gear, for about 5 years now and people think the aggressive way of riding is actually unsafe. Making judgement and riding that aggressive is actually safer than riding casually in a city setting. City drivers are aggressive as well so you need to make yourself seen. This is 100% correct riding and I love how he also has respect for drivers saying that he doesn't want to be a disruption or bother anyone. This rules.

      Did you even see the video? He doesnt care about anything or anyone in traffic. All avout the rush.

    • @ast3362
      @ast3362 4 года назад

      yep you can say that about all the messengers on youtube. I only find it refreshing that he's at least aware of his impact on traffic and somewhat tries to not cause heavy problems

    Adds colour to the city and as he said, if your not causing trouble then good luck to him. Is the fastest way to get important paperwork around town.

  • @dietmarhofer1651
    @dietmarhofer1651 9 лет назад +14

    To outsiders it does indeed look dangerous and probably ruthless.
    The secret is to not be seen by other people before it's basically too late for them to react. If you pay attention, you may notice that in the "dangerous" situations he either approaches other people from behind or passes by very quickly - out of the nowhere (from their perspective). Of course this requires massive experience.
    To get an idea about what distances messengers typically cover in few days, take a look at this nice time lapsed animation of GPS tracked rides: lab.bikecitizens.net/cycle-courier-rides/

    This is the same style and philosophy i have when it comes to bike riding in a city - cyclist find their way around 'objects', none moving and moving(humans are also objects for a cyclist). No one should care about the cyclist or move out of their way,that is unexpected move for us and actually makes everything harder.

    • @Aaosj
      @Aaosj Год назад

      Five years are gone but still... While I have the same goal and principles as you and this guy, I think one should care about pedestrian boundaries, is very natural to get freaked out/surprised/scared/annoyed if a guy pass just by your side/in front of you while you are walking on the crosswalk or the sidewalk, and whatever our skill level we are putting them in a non-asked, unnecesary and plain absurd dangerous situation while they are existing in a supposed shared safe area... there are enough 4ssh0l3s in cars sh1tt1ng on them already, let's be just little smarter and human than those. People are subjects, with their own inwardness, experiences, feelings etc, not objects.

    that's funny about the 3:00 p.m. deadline for court filing, because here on the other side of the world, we have same 3:00 p.m. deadline at some courts. they have a computer which generates your number to wait in line to get something filed. show up at 3:01 p.m., and you don't get no number, and can't file. you'd be a great court runner/process server lol

    A bit optimistic on the numbers there aren't we? In NYC the rate is $4-$5 max per delivery. In London, England the rate is 2 GBP max per delivery. There is not a delivery every 10 minutes, couriers can deliver as little as 10 packages as many as 40 in a day. What this works out to is that beginning couriers average $8-$12 per hour for the hours they work. Experienced couriers average $11-$15/hr. Then there are the "stars" that are capable of $15-$21/hr. For this last group there are very few.
