Hey everyone, I made a short video of me messing around on my bike tonight. I thought I would post it here. By the way, I completely understand that there are countless videos of people waaaay better than me. This video is just about me having fun on my bike. Nothing more, nothing less. Lemme know what you think.

it definately isn't anything "more".
What's the music? Sounds really familiar.
I liked your cat porn video too.

The song is Around the Horn by The Bronx. Cat porn is the best kind of porn.

You'd be happier if you raise your seat like an inch or so.

Really? I ride with it as low as it is only because I actually have pretty short legs for my height.

okay, you have to explain how to do the no hands-to-wheelie trick. That's awesome.
...and really well timed to the music too

Yeah, sorry to be a naysayer, but I could barely see what you were doing. My professional advice is to shoot during the day.

Yea thats under the BQE.
Yea edgetilldeath is funny, but the names I usually use were taken, and I never made my account with the intention of using it a lot. Not to mention, its the internet. Who cares, haha.
That other Fixie Fun video is cool, I had never seen it though.
Yea, I know its dark and blurry. When my friend and I went out it wasnt specifically to film stuff, we were just going out and practicing/riding around. We had the camera with us and decided to film some stuff for the hell of it. I put the film together more so to just show my friends and family back home what Ive been up to. Decided to put it up here though for the hell of it. It is a bike forum afterall. Id definitely like to film some nicer stuff in the future though.
The Bronx is awesome.
Being edge doesnt suck ass, Its just a different way of doing things. It shouldnt be a big deal.
Other than that, thanks for all the kind comments and constructive criticism.

Being "edge" is better than being the Edge. That guy really sucks.

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. I definitely wanna make another film thats better quality, more people than just me, and just nicer overall. This video was a kind of spur of the moment thing.

oh, if you must wear tight jeans, it is the forum rule to wear either vans slip ons or a studded belt.
xfrancox
05-25-07, 10:52 PM
Har Har.
For the record, I wear men's jeans, haha. I have slip ons but I dont think theres anything wrong with that. No studded belts here though, no white belts, no lip piercings, no girl hair, no myspace bathroom pictures, and no front brake. Thank you very much, haha.
