that lil thing needs regearing; my 65cc moped goth through half of same obstacle with maybe 4 or 5 bhp (but to be fair it has 18" wheels and working suspension ;) ) . that aside, this "monkey" is actually quite good for "adventure" (albeit short one) riding, and with few mods (not sure about legality, but 212 daytona engine has around 30ish bhp on crank ;) ) and it would be an awesome trail/street mini bike :)
Wow that must been a heck of a work out. The things we all have done we regret doing lol. But, least you had it on video and can look back and laugh. Thanks for sharing and your got me on the frostbite at first. Glad to see was joke. But, now I wonder how well it would do with tires meant for snow and mud.
It's the bridge to nowhere in the San Gabriel mountains. Every dumbass new RU-vid uses this as clickbait. Just an unfinished road. Nothing to do a nuclear escape tunnel
You're full of crap! Think about it, it makes no sense. This scenario can only of been made up by someone who doesn't know life without television, cellphones and the internet. I grew up in the area, and that story didn't exist till the 2000s
There was a tunnel in Eaton Canyon, it was small though. You had to crouch down. You would see a dot of light at the end, but when you got there it was really pretty area. Before you got there you had to climb A rickety ladder up a cliff. Someone fell and they took the ladder down. I think they blocked that tunnel too.
eaton canyon had a fence across it for many years-so many people kept tearing it down they finally gave up fixing it--got cited by police in 1970 for being past the fence--there was probably 50 people back there
@@lotstodo yes==eaton canyon was,is a watershed for pasadena--i think they share with surrounding area--they did not want people polluting their water supply even though they let it seep in the ground below eaton canyon and pump it out as needed--the ladder was for water employees but guessing used almost never--people fall off the cliffs all the time in eaton canyon--sierra madre search /rescue pulled my friend and i in the early 60ties when we go stuck on cliff in sierra madre canyon
@mtsky-tc6uw I saw in the paper one time that a kid fell. Oddly, I knew the hikers who found him, they were in the picture. I think he lived. It was a scary climb.
Pretty sure those tunnels were suppose to be California first scenic route…. There is also a bridge near by where you can bungie jump off of. These tunnels are near Azusa.
I’m just curious about this dumb ass saying in the whole videos, (never mention the location or name of the tunnels) a Retard I know exactly where this tunnel is at It’s in Angeles national Forest Angeles Crest Hwy if you’re not from Los Angeles just shut up you’re going to message on the video & say something stupid like in the (whole video never mentioned the location or name of the tunnel) LOL I know exactly where it is at the question is do you know where it is? Do you know the location? No you don’t. So just do yourself a favor & be quiet. you sound like a Rookie. LOL what are you a cop or something? Or do you own Angeles national Forest? 🌳NoOo you don’t. If anyone wants the location or wants to know exactly where it is just message me & I will tell you exactly where the location is at
I know exactly where the location is at this guy in the video, never mention the location or name of the tunnel what are you the police of Angeles national Forest? or Angeles Crest Hwy
I was alive back then, and no one paid much attention to the thought of a nuclear war. The politicians ranted about it to get votes, but the average person never gave nuclear war much thought. The vast majority just went about their normal lives.
@@timthompson8297 i was 10 in Socal and knew very well the threat-i was the big kid always suppose to close the blinds during drills--i had zero fear then and still don't even though we could be miliseconds from nuke war today
Very, very nice video. This bike is incredibly entertaining to ride and very capable on the dirt. I own a 2022 model and, honestly, I will not take it away from the streets of Madrid or good condition roads. I value this little gem a lot like if it was a collection bike that I have to keep forever. By the way, you are a brave and skillful driver.
4:40 I put Maxxis 6024 nobby tires on my 2020 Monkey almost 4 years ago and they made a world of difference off-road. Swapping out the front sprocket with one that has one less tooth helped to hold more speed going uphill as well. Though, I must admit that the best upgrade by far that I could do for my Monkey is to lose at least 50 pounds. 😂
It ain't even just big bumps, we took a Monkey and Dax to some uneven roads and they still didn't like it one bit. Now I see why people are so quick to replace the shocks.
