    Goddamn! I’ve known for quite some time that I’m too old and scared to ride like this. But now I suspect I may be too old and scared to even WATCH it! 😄
    Nice riding, my man.

    Riding indy has such a different vibe than NYC, I couldn't survive there. Good job keeping rubber side down, some real sketchy moments there.

    so cool, scary at times... but cool, you are a brave man! do you really get this little attention from the boys and girls in blue??? a split view recording would be cool (front and back) ... but that's probably a lot more boring post-processing work... this look at your profession is an eye opener!

    • @Fixedgearr

    Not for nothing but are you riding this reckless for RUclips views? I ride fixed and I ride responsibly. Front brake, stopping at lights, using the bike lane. Watching this video made me realize why drivers hate cyclists. You almost even hit some pedestrians. Don’t be the reason for someone or even your catastrophic injury or worse.

      @jayceinfinitealgharhythmns9814 I just ride like that because to me it’s fun. I don’t mind staying in the bike lane and stopping at lights but to me that defeats the purpose of delivering on a bike.

      I alway thought that the point was to arrive alive and not put yourself and others in harms way unnecessarily. Your reasoning is literally self serving narcissistic apathy that’s quite dangerous to society as a whole. “I’ll have fun, no matter what the cost to others”. I ride with the awareness that it’s not just me on the road. I know this chat won’t fundamentally change anything but I do hope I never read or see something terrible that’s happened as a result of you “having fun”!

      Disregard the comments. The RUclipsr literally said he likes putting innocent people at risk because... *Checks notes* ..... Food delivery.
      I'm all for having fun, but reckless is reckless. It's for the views. He's an Aldi version of Terry B imposter. Terry and crew is bad also, and promotes foolishness as well.

    Do you see any actual growth from this type of job? As fun and cool as it looks, seems like it would deadend extremely fast. People say it’s about the personal freedom but I still see them tied to apps running another person’s maze.

    • @Fixedgearr
      @Fixedgearr  6 месяцев назад

      Besides this job growing my entire RUclips channel, it helps me to be a better cyclist daily. If you deliver for a company there’s no real “advancement” to be made. Others own their own delivery company’s and are making a killing. I’ll take the freedom this job gives over standing in line for next years promotion
