Captain America from Aero

Man, the memories. I was a rookie messenger for Special T when this documentary came out, I was a long-haired young liberal messenger living in San Francisco. I look back on these days with a little fondness and a little craziness. I don’t live in San Francisco anymore and I do something entirely different, it’s really weird where life spits us out sometimes.

Love the animation! unfortunately my 24 trailblazer doesn’t do this it just shows Chevrolet and the gold bow tie wonder if there’s a way in settings

I wonder whatever happened to Molly Barker, the filmmaker. I remember her at Special T messenger service in 1993. I worked there, too. I was "26-Pete." Or, Ace Backwords, my street name... PS. Great job, Molly. You captured it.

Needs the check valve installed to dampen the closing of the flap. Too aggressive without it

what is the song called?

This is the year I was born. I have been doing food delivery on a bike for 4 yrs, did courier work for a bit during COVID delivering COVID samples between medical facilities

It teaches basic riding maneuvers

These guys blew mind when I was a kid in the 70's and 80's watching them through the traffic on Market St

That's wild dudes been doing this since 1958.

Dope

I recognize the dude with dreads ? is he from shotwell? (band) also , who did the music?

Bike messengers - best people in da universe

looks so dated pre digital, bizarre. Cabs cant get it there quicker unless they could fly, and cheaper so it is an attractive alternative. what do they do when it rains?

Great video shots, but stinky "music"!!!

Wild. I’m a courier in London, and other than the technological differences and the bikes shit ain’t changed lol

This is my old moms dad... I hope your okay my old moms dad :)

So you or anyone else does not bother to help her? She could have been murdered and you and the others at the scene would be held morally responsible for not helping. But that takes someone with a brain and a heart to do something human.

What year was this documentary made?

And of course "J Bone" . He has the mohawk and glasses. I didn't really get to know him but everybody loved him. Even if you didn't know him.

That's "Airplane" at 9:10. A good guy that was a martial arts bad ass. When you got a high five from the plane you felt for the next 5 mins

That's Bob at 7:00. He was was at Silver bullet in in 1988. I worked there for a stint. I don't know if any body is following this but I might be able to list those that were there. Dano or as Bob would say "Dainsy", Meech, Jeff or "Canucky" , JP , Rick B, Eric or "Airplane". Because I can't remember the names here are two others. "Yo" a girl messenger and one that I think of as the "Professor " because he reminded me so much of Laurent Fignon. If ya don't know who Laurent is that's what Googles for.

A friend sent this to me today, May 6, 2020. My big brother David Garrison is in it. I’ve never watched before and I actually didn’t know it existed. He passed away many years ago. I am at work;a corporate job which is something he was never interested in. It’s ironic. I sat at my desk and cried until mascara (and a little snot) ran down my face. Over the years I forgot what his face looked like. I have photos but they are blurry. I forgot what his voice sounded like. Now I will always be able to go back to this documentary and see and hear him.

Thx for video!! I went there today!

11:12 - yeh, "best parts about riding...getting out on these the hills..... see more of the City".15:57 - "in this little zone...." so true. Great to see this. Nick FiveFive (ex Special T).

Interesting to see the bike messenger perspectives and comments from 1987!!! Definitely worth a watch - Thanks - Davey

I found a "western messenger " jacket in sf on the street around 2002 still wearing it. It's blue with yellow embroidered logo . I am curious to the year it was made ?? Nothing cuts out wind like that jacket !

jdm turbo charged engine will beat the crap out of all that stupid muscle pussy cars

What is the song playing at the end?

They need to do a 'Where are they now'. I recognise a few faces.

IF YOU COULD PHUCKING AFFORD IT!!

thanks for posting Hiro! Barker and Nakashima really made a superb document• ary!

some dude says he's been doing since '58 ? (at around 17:00) .......

Curtis and I played music together in military school. He was my best friend back then. I only recently became aware of his passing. Goddamn that guy was funny and bold. Once, in the mess hall, I was fucking around with him and he poured an entire bowl of cereal in my lap. I couldn't believe it. He is missed, and has been for many years.

The easiest of the trails can be extremely difficult in snow or rain. We did USAL road and saw videos of it in the mud right after rain. Totally different trail . Dry vs Wet.. I can imagine how Corral Hollow must be in the snow. The view of the ski resort from the top must have been spectacular with the snow!!

We tried to do Corral Hollow from both ends last weekend, too much snow for my 2003 Xterra. Got stuck not too far in on the Cabbage Patch Road end. Have a winch and a HiLift now ;-)

holy cow. i been here. this place is in newark, ca. good class to take. but like a month after the class i crashed my 1500 vulcan on 580 and nearly lost half my right leg. thats the last cruiser ill ever buy. fuckin bikes dont stop, they skid till they hit somethin.

Three Honda(s) I love 2000 Accord coupe v6, prelude 5th generation & 1996 civc (:

What part of the park was it in the 1st video clip.

original music got taken off and replaced with non-copyright tune.. LOL.. I would go for Pearl White... and thats not just because I have one in that color.. LOL

Music sounds like something from the lion Man or something lol. I want to respray My lude not sure If white or Black though?

i like

Sorry, I had my microphone on my camera off.... oops!

This video of this Nissan Exterra makes one of the easiest trails I have been on look extremely difficult. Good camera work though

Frisco is the 2nd most densly populated city next to nyc...thats why it has that east coast city feeling

Mine is exactly like the one at 0:43 Except the mags

Very nice

I've been riding for years and slow Speed maneuvers are hard. The DMV test circle is 24ft across and the MSF course u-turn box is 20ft across. It us a tighter turn radius but this seems easier.

Why R U Driving Such A Strong New Truck Sooo Very Slow ? Is It Cause U Don't Want 2 Get The Fender Wells Dirty ? Or Is It Cause U Don't Want 2 Scratch The Paint ? I "Liked" The Trail.
