Get out there on an electric trike !! ( 3 wheelers ) they make many brands !! I'm 65 with bad knees and hip, looking to buy a JUICED RIP RACER. Gonna feel like a kid again !!👍🙂
Quick tip on breaking in the gloves I throw ours in the dryer then put them on and clinch fist helps form them I do that with all our moto gloves.. And you had mentioned a fender if you don't like the look of the big bulky one look into downhill mtd front fender their cheap and sleek hope these help love the content
This makes me appreciate my quiet life in the midwest, but we are getting folks that are trying to escape what you are driving through. That's fine, as long as you leave that stuff back there in LA. Thanks for the videos John, stay safe out there. Amitofo!
While I do agree. My state is being flooded with people trying to improve their life by moving but they buying the wrong land and having realtors and "business people" change things to fit the "new rich". Land that was untouched for years now destroyed and forced into unlovable HOA land
If you import it yourself (costs less than 4k total) it takes months lol like 2-3. If you buy from a retailer In your continent / country you can Either pick it up at a dealer like a regular dirtbike or you can get it in a couple weeks
PLEASE PLEASE do NOT do the ususal touristy crap, I am a North Long Beach Native and I watch your channel BECAUSE you do alleys, ghettos, etc - be nice if you hopped on the blue line, did Willow, Signal Hill area where I grew up - Locust Street south of the 405, LA river right there, Bixby knolls, etc its a great area
He will always keep going back to the hood so it doesn't matter if he goes to those places sometimes because a lot of us don't get to see those places and wanna see him go there.
Bro I’m digging what you’re doing!! For real!! I invite you to Baltimore and we can do another vid.. People respect e-bikes in the hood for sum reason. Actually safer that a huffy!😂 Holla back
One problem I left LA because of is that everyone is trying to be ahead of one and other and the problem with that city is just that. When people learn to hold each other up and not try to be ahead of one and other they will all succeed together.
Hello John, Ive recently subscribed, enjoy your videos. I always wanted to see LA. I use to drive 18wheels and of course couldnt see anything except from the highway. You bring it all in to view and I really appreciate it. STAY SAFE!! I would like to see the Tar Pit area if you ever have a chance, or already have an older video of it.
I like your video it reminds me of the time that I rode my bike from Riverside to highway 18 waterman avenue that leads to Big Bear. I rode up through old waterman and then rode back down. The ride consists of going through San bernardino. I realized that it was more dangerous to drive through San Bernardino than to Coast down the mountain. Lol San Bernardino reminded me a little of home though. I grew up in Santa Ana.
Go Chiefs - Christian Okoye is my niece's uncle so I have been a fan of the Chiefs for awhile now, thanks for another great ride, peace ✌ out my friend
It would be so cool if you showed a quick Google map screen shot at the beginning w where you at in LA for ur ride…. If it’s not too hard to do? I love ur channel and used to run around in those streets some when I was younger so I feel ya about having to always be on alert and head on a swivel. You never know what’s gonna come at u in LA! Wild! Used to live in SF and Oakland too-gotta stay alert! But it’s exciting fer sure!!!
No amount of government funding can defeat this level of disgust. If the local people don't care about their environment and just litter and trash the place, then it's their choice to live in a squalor. You cannot help those that refuse to help themselves.
Videos are dope love to check em out... deff need to see way more wheelies... but still interesting. Haha but anyway I wanted to give ya some info if ya didnt know already but you were sayin about feeling like you were not digging some of the spots and you'll get out of there bc you feel uneasy, and you might already know this stuff but Imma tell ya anyway that way you have the info to keep ya self out of harms way, but around 27:39 if you look to the right of you on the wall in that sketchy alley you didnt feel right in, you can see theres a tag from a well known La gang called the 18 Street Gang... and Ive seen some other tags from other gangs like Barriox13, Surenos, MS13 all through some of the areas your in when your feeling uneasy and thats probably why haha so be careful out there man.. ya deff dont want to wonder into a bad situation. But love the vids keep up the good work and stay safe out there man!!!
Diggin' the videos, but seriously dude - you need fender(s), thorn resistant tubes and some street bike boots to help protect your calves from dogs. Have a great week!
I got lost in Crenshaw area once. It was pretty scary. Couldnt find the damn freeway. Finally found it after a few miles. I couldnt wait to get out of that area. I used Sofi as a landmark to redirect myself. Im from San Diego and I went to school in Long Beach and Im familiar with that area but definitely dont want to be in that area ever again.
hey man mad love from Italy. Been following you for over a year now. I know you be reading comments here and there. Just asking for a shout out. It would make my day. Big fan of yours. Keep the good work up. havent missed a single upload.
john, love from detroit. when we ride we always carry a small pocket 12v pump with a 12v cigarette lighter battery pack in the backpack. it's saved me on 3 occasions riding through brightmoor and the eastside. glass all over the roads here and its sometimes unavoidable. the pump was like 60.00 and the battery pack was around 100.00. just a thought.
Yeah Bro this is actually really interesting to see. Way different to Australia Gold Coast. Be sick if you could scope out some cool graffiti. Anyways keep hoppin. 🙌
Being from Chicago, the people that say: "You're paranoid." never lived in a bad area. And all you were trying to do was get by without dying by someone else's stupidity and recklessness or even get robbed and his bike is the perfect candidate. I can't stand people that know NOTHING about the streets! But yet comment ignorant things like that. You are not being paranoid by the slightest!
Love your videos I live out east in Philly and seeing all the palm trees, grass and sunny weather in the city is crazy too me and it makes it look deceivingly nice.
3 people that's all.get a fender. Kool video. The Chicken crossed the road to prove to the squirrels and the rabbits and the rest of the animals that, Hey it really can be done .🐓😂😂😂
Hey!! So that storm ⛈️ that you were not worried about turned out to be a doozy!! Maybe you can ride around and give us some scoop on the areas that are still doing ok in this flooding? Don’t go to any dangerous areas please. Stay safe out there!! 🙏🙏🙏
Does Surron only make one model or is there others that are a lil cheaper in price .. I went on the website and seen the one that goes for 4,000$ is this the one you have ??
Been chased by a pitbull, i was on foot, so i stood my ground and punched it in the eye socket when it got close enough... broke 2 fingers 🤣 didnt get bit though 🤷♂️ haha
Ayeee excited to start watching this rn I love these types of videos man they be the fucking best also good choice not wearing that hoodie at that corner 😂👌
Idk if you talked about it before or if you don't wanna talk about, but what happened to your other friends that used to be in your vids? I remember you guys rode together almost all the time. I was just curious what happened or where they went
That chopper bike is a 2003-04 Schwinn XL not many around, I have one like that but it is a spoiler springer 24 front and fat 20 in the back turned into a 60mph 72v e-bike.
im the same way. back in ky used live in east end. by the name you should know. this was gang haven, every time i go there, or out valley 247 checking my back.
Your videos are awesome and just a lot of fun to watchn But, please do yourself a favor and use FlatOut in your tires. I have an ebike with a couple thousand miles and not one flat. Same with another friend as well with even more mileage.
lol, getting better at making really enticing intros. Is that because it's getting weirder in LA, or you're just finding more stuff in the vids when you're editing?
Thank you for your videos, so exciting to show California. I love California! I've been several times, by far, one of my favorite states. The whole atmosphere is edgy! Please be safe❤🙏
Bro I hope you cleaned your bike when you got home! That Canal Town the overrated Surron dipped through was probably worse than the stagnant water. 😂😂 Respect bro! Love watching your content
Hoover and 82nd, we're deep right now...!!! Dude, I went to Bret Harte JHS in the mid 60's. It was not a good time. PS This is NOT Compton, not even close. It's South central LA.
That electric bike is sick…. You’re not being paranoid, you’re being situationally aware… which almost nobody is today. It’s being smart. You’re breaking the many “rules of stupid” 1. Don’t go stupid places 2. At stupid times 3. With stupid people 4. Doing stupid things But since it’s for my entertainment I’ll give you a pass. Be safe bro. New subscriber.
Long time subscriber but not seen you in ages. So you're on an e-bike now! When I used to watch it was a BMX. I like that the e-bike covers more ground but the noise is kinda annoying. Visited the US in December and went to Vegas, New Orleans and New York. It's great to watch your content and see what America is like in day to day life.
yeah i get paranoid usually thats called living in reality though most people live in fake realities acting like theres only a little bit of dark stuff … really cool bike woww! anyways have a good day yalllll
Im from Michigan and we hear about how bad the homeless crisis is out there all the time... But to me when i think of the homeless i think of skidrow downtown LA and i think to myself the suburbs gotta be clean... Then i see videos like this and it really is that bad everywhere out there. Crazy.
I watch all of your videos they are awesome love them all but in your next video can you explain y some faces are blurd and some are not thank you love the video❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
LA is crazy...you ain't paranoid bro, you're normal for that part of Cali...lol IYKYK...had all I could handle of that place in the 90's. Never went back again and don't plan on it either. I'm in Alaska now and that Surron is tempting. It'd get me to and from work on a single charge and no more paying summertime gas prices...lol Stay safe and keep your melon on a swivel. 👍👍 Subscribed too!!!
