This is the first time I'm seeing this and kinda shock. If I was driving around and see a guy grabbing my car, I would be kinda shock. I may grab my gun and say WTF are you doing?!! Now I know it's ok if a biker does this. Thanks man and be safe.
This is GOLDEN content. You ride just like myself man. The way you analyze everything is exactly how I do it. I wish one day to ride with you! Ride hard! Don't stop! Love the videos!
Thanks for all your content man, really appreciate it... Do you have any video with tips about skitching? I'm looking for something like this cuz weeks ago I tried to skitch on a bus and I almost died basically hahahaha I felt totally stupid right after cuz the circunstances was obviously not appropriated... some guidance would be very useful, for example: what is the best hand position on the bike to stay stable, what are the risks, how to avoid a fall, which place on the vehicle is safier to catch, etc... Thank you again for the great content, hugs from Brazil o/
I do have a ton of questions like this about skitching and promise you I’m going to do a video covering everything. And yeah, I’ve gotten some fucked up embarrassing skitches
Basically you want you hand the closest to the stem, and do not pedal, calculate the speed before the grab, and maybe lean a little bit to the vehicle.
I agree... When I was knee-high to a grasshopper, I skitched a friend's car down a smooth 2-mile road with no intersections... He got up a bit past 65... (I was hanging on the open drivers side window and was closely watching the early 80s Pontiac Lemans speedometer)... When I finally let go, it was like the brakes went on. I almost wiped out... I was on a first generation mountain bike (maybe 1985) so that may have something to do with the windy braking effect. I told this story to my dad one day, he said, "Crap! I did the same thing at the same speed back in the late 40's", when I was still bouncin' on my mama's lap... "When I finally let go, I thought the bike blew up"... "I woke up 10 minutes latter in a grassy ditch." A big thanks for the newer, lighter, aerodynamic bikes they make these days. (And Cameras!)
@@toby4050 Srry for ignoring 2nd part, here are the general numbers from skitching thousands of cars around the world, 90% of drivers don't notice, of the 10% that do, most cautiously ok with it, some are totally stoked, and very few get mad about it. Those are worldwide statistics. There are exceptions such as Miami where many more drivers are actually aware here because people communicate here a lot more on the roads than most other places, and pretty much every driver is psyched, on the other extreme, if you go to a sleepy suburb of NY, they'll get pissed 90% of the time. In Central America and Indonesia drivers are super psyched and actually want you to grab on and they'll speed up hellz yeah
ThePurpleWhale a guy did that on back of my rig in nyc I didn’t even know the bicycle was there cop pulled me over and I received a moving violation ticket had to go to court pay all kinds of fees. So for now on when someone does this I usually stop my truck don’t need the problem with the police or if someone gets killed seen it many a time in the city. Stay safe riding out there
Dude I'm new to riding, I bought my first bike since being a teen a month ago... And that took some massive balls, damn. Lol I can't even imagine doing that 😅😂
First of all, when you let go at that speed, you feel like you’re flying, no longer being attached to a car and gliding at 60MPH is a whole different feel, the bike is lighter and you’re forced to lean instead of steering the bike. Two hands on the bars at that speed is Fun. All senses are on super alert, absolute focus. As for safety there’s not much concern because you’re already exposed to the wind so it’s not like drafting at 60MPH and then exiting that where the wind feels like a brick wall and it’s scary
Crazy thing about skitching, it actually started when I was young, in the 80s in NYC and Miami it was safer to skitch than to have cars bombing by me on my BMX bike, no bike lanes, cameras, or safety back then, outright contempt and confrontation just for riding on some streets. But yeah, I turned the skitch into high speed open road vs. inner city survival
... im not even sure what to say. I guess if you grabbed my truck I'd be cool with it but I may shit my pants in the side mirror if I seen ya there doing 60
I'm from Chicago, been in Miami for two and a half years now... Normal US laws are usually applied in serious situations only, "usually" not the petty stuff... Cuban rules and regulations prevail in much of the small stuff... I love it, too! Bike and scooter delivery routinely park up on the sidewalks in Miami, try that in Boston, New York, Chicago or LA!!! Your worst enemies are the Valet folks, not the cops! You should've tried to skitch that "super cool" Cop's SUV... Just kidding, don't push the envelope.

“The van is full tourists and i dont want their attention.” Proceeds to skitch the truck in front of them.
This guy is just a legend, “yeah I just grabbed onto this truck and he’s going a (little) fast for me”
Proceeded to go 60mph
I have that exact truck. He ain't racing anyone. Lol
How often do people realize you're skitchin with their help? Lol
The truck is "waiting for the POS", who's a driver doing the right thing, waiting for pedestrians in a crosswalk, as you have to do per the law.
youre not from miami, you dont get it
Fernando Cordal No but I do and I still agree with the original comment here everybody in Miami drives like assholes
Wyd if you’re driving freeway speeds and a dude on a bicycle passes you up 😂😂
🏴🦄🏴
60mph is not freeways speeds.
This is the first time I'm seeing this and kinda shock. If I was driving around and see a guy grabbing my car, I would be kinda shock. I may grab my gun and say WTF are you doing?!! Now I know it's ok if a biker does this. Thanks man and be safe.
0:55 did you see that plane?🧐😂
That's trippy how it just disappears
That's cool
bro when i realize where he was my face lit up i ride through there all the time thats in miami going to south beach
Yep and I WILL be back soon
Great use of the hand signal on that flat. Very quick response.
why wouldn't he just give a turn signal?
Was the Mercedes horn or the cops? Love how you analyze driver and car before you go for the skitch , a true professional.
It was the horn from the cops, I'm 98% of the time correct about how the driver/passengers will behave
Lucas Brunelle ever had anything go wrong while Skitching?
No way would I put my trust in random drivers you must have a few cogs loose! 🤯🤪
Mercedes would play some Wagner tune.
"I LOVE this Place"
Happiness with where you are is the KEY to LIFE. Ride Faster Die NEVER...
It really is, what a tricky balance

Calculating risk has saved my life and made for some Rad shots

Nice man. If that was in Melbourne Australia, it would have been authoritarian carnage.
Doing this where I'm from wouldn't end well
Where's that 😃

0:52 waiting for that POS to get out of the way - pretty accurate. Loved that cops were cool, don't always see that happen here.
You not ride tubeless, mate? I switched a while back and not going back
I do off road, I may try it
Dangerous move brother, I wouldn't try it to often!
What are you riding on?
Cinelli Superstar with 23 width tires, 54x11 max
where is that?
MacArthur causeway into Miami-Fuckn-Beach
@@lucasbrunelle that's what I fuckn thought, fukn florida, crazy place. I was raised in this swamp of a state
wow that cop was chill. Tampa PD would probably stop you and "chat".
Yeah... ruclips.net/video/iHb1Zm-i9kY/видео.html
Big disrespect to touch someone's car without asking.. 🖕BING BONG!
Do the car doors ever open when you pull on them? Must be awkward if it does lol
Yeah... it has, I try and avoid that
@@lucasbrunelle 🤣🤣 nice one.
The cop didn’t want you to die 😂
I held on to 65mph when I was wee nipper but wouldn’t do it now.
Although you did save a lot of time!

A big thanks for the newer, lighter, aerodynamic bikes they make these days. (And Cameras!)
I remember how much more difficult and unstable it was to skitch in those days
You sound Scottish lol
@@lucasbrunelle Due to structural integrity of the bikes / machines at the time?
Can someone explain why you would do this/how the driver doesn't react?
1) for the love of speed, 2) save my legs when riding to a race, 3) get somewhere faster than any car or bike
@@lucasbrunelle ah but do the drivers generally not mind?

Lucas, you live the man's bike life, it's ill shit.
Absolute speed demon🔥
What bike and tire size are you running man? This is crazy
57 frame, 23 tires
Did you ask the jogger girl out later on?
Always 🙂
Dude I'm new to riding, I bought my first bike since being a teen a month ago... And that took some massive balls, damn. Lol I can't even imagine doing that 😅😂
Congratulations Man - ride like hell then
Now I like bikes again
THAT'S why I do this 🎥
So wild to hold onto the bike with only 1 hand that fast!!
My left arm is actually stronger than my right arm because of how often I skitch
Do people just not look in their mirrors?!
90% of the time nope
What would happen if you let go of the truck at 60 mph?
First of all, when you let go at that speed, you feel like you’re flying, no longer being attached to a car and gliding at 60MPH is a whole different feel, the bike is lighter and you’re forced to lean instead of steering the bike.

Lucas Brunelle Aha! Thank you for answering! I would have thought that you’d potentially lose control when letting go of the car at that speed.
@@Joelalfred Less control happens when you're forced to exit a draft at 60+ MPH wind speed (not ground speed)
This is so bad ass , but seriously a bad idea . Any sudden brake or swerve maneuver from a driver could kill you
They've done it, character judgment is very important

Have you ever had a serious accident while skitching, Lucas? That shit is crazy to watch...
Not yet, one must be super aware with great equipment to go at these speeds and even then I say my hail marys
... im not even sure what to say. I guess if you grabbed my truck I'd be cool with it but I may shit my pants in the side mirror if I seen ya there doing 60
Hey Brother You Should Get A Quad Lock Case And Mount.🤙🏽
That rubber mount is flexible which is easier on the phone
I love Florida 😆🚴🏾♂️🤪
i dont think that cop could have caught you even if he tried...
You should have switched lanes and grabbed the cops car.
I've done that, I'll post it in the future
where is this just okay? I would be furious if someone tried to do that with my car
It's ok in places where people are cool 'n happy
cool

Are you ukranian?:) because of the flag
Yes I am
Saw that too!!!

Maybe just buy a motorcycle
You have no idea - I did this in high school and got chased by police, went 150+ MPH all of the time, and yeah, fuck that
Nice Ukrainian flag man! Слава!
The real question is, did you get any KOM's on STRAVA? warning, incoming butt hurt strava fanatic replies.
Hellz yeah, that's my favorite part instagram.com/p/CClziH4DoBD/
