Hey brotha, thank you for the message you put out prior to the video. It takes a different type of person to go through those types of hardships and still have a positive outlook on life. Your a class act and may God bless you and your family. Much respect. 👍🇺🇲
Thanks brotha 🤘 I appreciate it, I try to learn from my mistakes not dwell on them. I don't like to talk about my past but I feel like there's so much tension going on right now against the police that it was important to speak my truth and hope that people understand that the majority of police are good people and we can't let the act of a few police officers ruin and tarnish the the reputation of the majority of the good police officers who risk their lives to protect and serve our communities.
@@TommyHuynh I agree with you 100% and hope that more people would have that same mindset. Hopefully people realize that before more hate crimes committed towards police officers. Because honestly who do we call when shit hits the fan? The police and I believe alot of the time its taken for granted. But again thank you that message alot of people dont speak up for what's right due to pressure and so forth, when they should should say something. On another topic do you have a paypal or venmo I want one of your shirts. I haven't ridden in about a year and really want to get back on the saddle. I live next to Greer. Maybe when I get back into shape I'll hit you up and we can ride and bbq at my house after. Take it easy brotha.👍🇺🇲
Dope video Tommy! Your restaurant is literally around the corner from where I live, definitely looking forward to checking it out sometime! Quick question, what is the trail you take to get to the playground at Oaks? Thanks for the great content!
Life is like mtbiking; you fall and get up. Thank you for sharing a little bit of your life with us, believe it or not It could change someone's life. Sick videos man.......ohh shit! 😁 🤟🏼
Thanks brotha 🤘 I was unsure if I would edit it out or not but I'm glad I kept it in. I had to speak my truth, there's too much tension right now for me to be silent
Been following for a while now...love your channel and rides, but massive respect for feeding your local law enforcement! I'm in Santa Rosa and share your views on understanding the anger but not the hate and destruction and have worried for our first responders. Solid message, solid dude!
Thanks brotha 🤘 I just want people to understand that we can stand behind the protesters and the police. We don't have to pick a side. The majority of police officers are good people and want all 4 of those police officers that killed George Floyd prosecuted. We all want peace, we are all on the same team.
Much respect, Tommy. There are a lot of folks, myself included, that come from questionable backgrounds and choose to create a better life. I see your hard work and wish you all the success you deserve.
About time someone got it correct 👏. 4 officers dont define all peace officers. Just like vandals and looters dont define all protesters. Every race and gender has their dip shits dont let them define your perception. Dont be a sheep think for yourself. Great message and thanks for sharing your stories and experiences keep doing what your doing Tommy 🤘.
Sad to hear about your past life story but really happy for your wellbeing decisions man. I totally agree with your points about putting everyone in bobble for the cause is not a solution.
Thanks brotha 🤘 its life, I don't dwell on it, my past has made me a better person, I just do my best to learn from my mistakes and keep pushing forward. Always embrace the grind 💪
Yelling oh shit will decrease chances of injury and bike damage by 60%. Your crashing advice really did lighten up my day! Mountain bike you tubers that censor their channels drives me nuts. I can't think of one ride with my bros that was ever censored...
Hahahaha I know most RUclipsrs censor, it's not that they don't cuss it's just that they want to make their videos more appropriate for kids. I love kids watching my channel and would never want to teach them bad language but I know that they have heard the word "shit" before and it's really up to the parents to keep them from repeating it. I know that my kids never cuss around me but I'm realistic and I'm sure they have said bad words at school around their friends.
Great speech Tommy I wish other people heard you. Don't lump all officers into what 4 officers did wrong it not fair. You said the true Tommy your a great person and I hope your followers listen to you.
Enjoyed the vid tommy, yes it is fkd up with what’s going on with the looting, at the same time it’s also wrong to go protesting during a pandemic how many lives are at risk with all these people gathering ?
Tommy! Much Respect for opening up about your private life. We all learn our own way. You've made a great example of hitting rock bottom and pulling yourself up as well as your brother! Question, what is your breaking pattern going down those rock gardens. I usually do not use any front break, but seems like I should at some point. Great video with Mo and Hannah!!! stay safe all!
luke 6 v37 " forgive and ye shall be forgiven " tough when people kill your loved ones but still safer to forgive. Bless you Tommy man for bringing up/talking about important stuff that's going on at the moment.
@@TommyHuynh i am bit of a sticker for helmets after road debris cause me to fall of my cx bike with 35mm nobbys on it. Thankfully, I had my helmet on & since then never done a ride without it on. Even if it's for 2 blocks.
I totally agree with you on the opening comments.I have lived in Saint Paul for 24years.I speak on my experience here, the problems plaguing this state are systematic racist policies.So the police involved is just a by product of the deep seeded generational Cultural Elitism That plagues this state.So the issues are wide and complex.Thanks for the distraction.I think I will go for a ride.Peace
Tommy I too have a messed up past but I look at it like this if I wasn't doing the dumb things I was doing I wouldn't have been in the situations I've been in with law enforcement.not justifying any of the horrible actions that have taken place
Thank you for the Support Tommy!
💯 thanks for your hard work
Thanks for sharing your personal experiences with us Tommy.
I don't like to talk about my past because I don't want to be judged but I just felt this was the time to speak up
TH footage great as usual. 👏 But really like your monologue. Fact you’ve been there gets full respect for your opinion. Thanks for sharing Brotha 🙏
Thanks brotha 🤘
Your a good man brotha! God be with you and the family. 🙏
Thanks brotha 🤘
Great words man! Would love to tell you mine. Just not on a public forum. Coming from the other side. Maybe one day in Simi or Thousandoaks
🤘🤘🤘

I don't know if there's a name it's just the main fire road. I know you can also get there from Barham Ridge
@@TommyHuynh appreciate it!

Thanks brotha 🤘 I appreciate it. Trust me I will always keep it real 💯
Amazing! Thank you for your hard work anh

Respect for sharing your past to past is your past as long as you learn from it and grow up I feel as though that is part of being an adult.

Rode there today. Don't know why, but I kept saying oh shit. Haha
Hahahaha 🤘
Sick drop in the beginning of the ride. 🤙
Thanks 🤘
Dude - 100% with you brother! Thanks for sharing. United we stand, divided we WILL fall.
Yes 💯

can you change the screenshot of this video? locals don't the attention as a jump spot
I am pretty sure nobody's gonna come ride Santiago Oaks for the jumps 🤣
@@TommyHuynh would like to keep it that way

Thank you, I don't like to talk about my past but I felt I had to speak up because theres way too much tension and division right now.
I've never realized you really do yell oh shit before every big crash....
Hahahaha I do 😂
Enjoyed the vid tommy, yes it is fkd up with what’s going on with the looting, at the same time it’s also wrong to go protesting during a pandemic how many lives are at risk with all these people gathering ?

Thanks brotha 🤘 yes I use front and rear brakes, I normally like to control my speed before rock gardens and then let go over rock gardens
Well said tommy!
Thank you 🤘
Big fan of the channel. Great riding and a solid statement at the beginning of the video.
Thanks brotha 🤘 I appreciate it 🙏
Always Keeping it 💯 MB 🤘🏼 We learn from our pass life... So we don’t relive it in our future life 🙏🏼
Yes 💯 and we make sure we teach our kids from our mistakes 👌
Tommy, what happen to Chris? Haven’t seen him in awhile?
Chris is riding that gnarly shit while Tommy heals up
I have been taking it easy riding some chill trails. I actually just rode with Chris yesterday, the video will be posted Monday 🤘

Thank you brotha 🤘 yes forgiveness is 💯 the most important thing.
Awesome video 👍😎🚵♀️

Hahahaha thanks 🤘
Cant agree with your message more man. Thanks for sayin that.
Thanks brotha 🤘

Thanks brotha 🤘 yes we have a long way to go, I really hope that this is the beginning of some real change in this country
☮️🚵😎
I deleted my other comment! 🤦 I don't know why! Hope it's hopping at the restaurant. 🍜
Tommy I too have a messed up past but I look at it like this if I wasn't doing the dumb things I was doing I wouldn't have been in the situations I've been in with law enforcement.not justifying any of the horrible actions that have taken place
But there are people pulled over and harassed for no reason all the time.
@@TommyHuynh I agree with that also. Irritating how there are bad everywhere and the good pay the price.
Sick vid.
Thanks brotha 🤘
yeap! yell "oh shingles" before it happens - hahahahaha! thanks!
Hahahaha 🤘
👍
