Bike friendly architecture 🙏🏻‼️‼️

Superrrr underrated video whatttt

I took a bike with me on train. Was super cool to just ride off into downtown upon arrival.

It’s so obvious but it’s funny you never think of these big cities being peaceful and relatively quiet but that how it would be 6 in the morning 🙃 Great start and looking forward to following the journey!! 🚲💨

underrated short!

Steam deck gang 💪🏻

Biking straight out the airport thooooo 🔥🔥🔥

Damnnn this is amazing!! Also can you grab me one too, thanks 🙃

Watched it all, good video. Surprised to only see 1k views. Keep it up!

Uber eats is really underpaying their workers

This should have way more views!

Welcome back! I'll be honest, I found you last season right at the very end, but I did not have the time to rewatch the previous episodes... And my brain can only take in a limited amount of biking content, when there is other stuff that I also want to watch... So this time I guess, same goes to me: "Let's see how far I make it" I assume this is all prerecorded and the bike tour is already over, but I'm just gonna pretend that you started yesterday so: Have fun on your trip and have safe travels! Edit: 30:10 DITCH

That kinda looks like chicken minis from chick-fil-A

Thanks for sharing your epic trip. Always amazed how you find those little lanes to get through towns.

Been a pleasure watching your journey, it's made me feel like I was part of the trip. Sure gonna miss waiting for a next episode to drop. Thanks and greetings from Slovakia!

what bike do you have and how much did it cost?

this is so soothing :) I would love to travel like this but on a motorcycle. I have semi-plans to go to Japan and I want to explore stuff by just walking around the city (e.g. Tokyo) and going inside random places on my own but since I don't know the language, I feel like it would be very difficult to do that without making it uncomfortable and awkward for me or other (japanese) people so that makes me lose confidence in me just being able to actually explore and experience without limits. I'd love to hear if you have thoughts on how I could handle this predicament - maybe you were in a similar situation as I am in right now? (don't know if you know japanese)

It’s wild that it looks so cool and familiar in ways

:)

You should do a collab with Tokyo Lens. I saw his newest video where he got exhausted from lowing the blinds on the windows of a tiny apartment. Dude needs to do more cardio.

great infrastructure but dang some of those cars are waaaay to big

cool video

Wow, perfect weather!

Really cool video! Time to start watching the previous parts... I somehow watched a lot of CDawgVAs charity cycling streams through japan, but these videos are a lot calmer and feel just satisfying to watch. Thank you for sharing your trip!

Cool!

I'm just curious, does your friend with the blue tires know that his saddle might be a little low? I don't know if you know about how saddle height affects your ride but if he raised his saddle he might be able to be more efficient and more power. Also having it too low can force your knees outwards and after a while it can make your knees sore. there should be good guides on youtube on saddle height.

are you a tourist or do you live in japan? loved the video btw

this poped in my tl, so cool videos.
