Riding Iron Horses to Philly’s Inner City Stables

[@wowIloveusernames]

I thought I subbed to a motorcycle channel, but in reality, I subbed to a channel that is sharing the stories of people and places of this nation. You guys really go above and beyond to showcase the people who want to make a change for the better. Seriously, thank you.

[@samedoi]

Well said!

[@2LaneLife]

Thanks so much for the kind words and your SUPPORT. Seriously. It's all about shaking hands with America and when we cross paths with positive stories like these, we feel it's important to share them. We appreciate that you and many others enjoy tuning in!! See you down the road...

Awesome guys. Production is through the roof Josh.

[@2LaneLife]

Thanks Matt!! Not bad for a 3 hour shoot and 2 day edit. The stories told make the video

[@erikwhitley413]

What an incredible episode! ❤ Those folks touched on some beautiful topics but what stood out the most to me was the community space where kids can hang out and learn to better themselves. This is seriously lacking in so many places.and I must admit, everything El Dog said he felt when he was on a horse is identical to how many of us feel on our bikes. Beautifully done!

[@2LaneLife]

Agreed!! There are definitely many parallels between horses and our bikes and we agreed with everything El Dog and the rest of the Fletcher Street Family said. We're glad you enjoyed this one as much as we did. Thanks for the support!

[@seanboyle7851]

Powerful stuff guys , nice and simple to show how tough it must be live Philly , but we can all help to make life better for everyone if we try ❤ thankyou for this one 👏

As a guy that grew up in a family of horse trainers this was a great video.

[@2LaneLife]

Agreed!! They are doing good things. Thanks for tuning in 🙌

[@flyonawall6521]

4:49 Such a negative comment on such a great opportunity / benefit for everyone in the community. 8:45 A wonderful description on how valuable this organization is! This was a great video, I hope to see more "down the road" 👍 And as always....great editing!

[@78cberne]

@flyonawall6521 "negative" comments sometimes also contain raw truths. When the lot was donated to the club, it was full of garbage. That is not a judgement call, that is fact. What they did with it was incredible. That's the positive, and the point of that "comment". Cherry-picking plus lack of context = not helpful.

[@flyonawall6521]

@@78cberne The garbage part wasn't the part I was talking about. Out of respect to the 2Lane Life crew and this organization I will refrain from commenting any further.

[@2LaneLife]

Thanks for tuning in! Sometimes things are left in as they are a part of the story from the storyteller's perspective. The input is always appreciated

[@kevkent35]

Thank you! After watching this, I feel like the future has a chance and that there are good people in this world, especially the youth. Thank you so much for making the effort to bringing this story to all of us. This is the greatest country, thank you for sharing!

[@glennboulden1649]

Wow. That was powerful. I’ve lived in south jersey my whole life. I’m 20 min from where you were. I would have never gone in that area. God bless you guys for doing that and bringing awareness.

[@davidbunting6582]

Same. A wise man once said, a man has to know his limits. I worked in prison for 28 years, and I met plenty of ppl who said don't come over to our hood. I've seen some scary things just going from the parking to the jail doors, shooting in the streets, coworkers assaulted on a bus getting a broken orbital socket,... Then you see this, makes you hold out for the hope some children's lives will be saved.

[@2LaneLife]

@@davidbunting6582 Well said. It really is incredible what these guys are doing and it gives us hope for the future generations that they are paving the way for. Thanks for tuning in!

[@2LaneLife]

It was an incredible experience to say the least. They welcomed everyone with open arms and we just hung out like old friends. Getting to see their words reflect in the children's respect and words gave us chills. They were all so passionate, thoughtful, and respectful and it's no wonder the club has lasted so long and changed so many life paths. Thanks fr tuning in, Glenn

[@Rad_Rider]

I deliver chlorine to all the Philly neighborhood pools every summer. This really hits home for me. I have heard and wondered about Fletcher St! Thank you fellas!!

[@RaymondSmith-c3y]

I am so honored and humbled that you were able to expose America to this great idea! Today's youth have so many things they could be doing. However, these youth chose horses instead of malicious choices. I wonder if the same could be done with iron horses? Thanks again for such a great video! See ya down the road!

[@samedoi]

You guys really live your motto, "Shaking hands with America" ❤❤

[@2LaneLife]

It sure feels like it. Thank you!! 🙏 🇺🇸

[@davidbunting6582]

I gotta agree, one of your best doc videos. I worked in PHL for 12 yrs. It's a great place, but it is tough too. They are doing God's work for sure. Kids need positive mentoring all the time to keep from making bad decisions that will affect their lives and the lives of others around them. Sorry I missed meeting you guys, but them the breaks. Ride on and stay safe!

[@2LaneLife]

Great but tough. They are definitely doing amazing things over there and paving the way for the bright futures of many of those kids and volunteers. Thanks for the support, David! We'll see you down the road 👍

[@ellisferrell5793]

One thing we didn't do is get you guys on a horse so if you are ever here again you have got to stop by and ride a horse ❤

[@2LaneLife]

That will be our goal next time! We should have ridden. Thanks a ton for the incredible hospitality and for sharing your story. We appreciate you 🤝🇺🇸

[@cathycomenas5011]

This is great! I use to live in Philadelphia. The first time I saw these folks riding horses in traffic I was like what the heck? I had the biggest smile and thought I was dreaming. Being from California I missed the whole western horse culture. The Fletcher Street Urban Riding Club is so great! Being a cowgirl and a biker most of my life you guys going there is so awesome. I am back in California, Chatsworth, now. At 64 I am on my sixth Harley, a Forty Eight and just acquired a 2001 custom Vicla Yamaha 1600,,,yeah a Yamaha. It was cheap and couldn't afford another Harley. Have to say I am loving the Yamaha. Oh well. Thanks for going out to Philadelphia and hanging with this awesome group of folks.

[@2LaneLife]

It was definitely an incredible mix of cultures seeing the horses out in the city! We're grateful for the experience and relationships forged out there. A truly memorable experience. Sounds like you're enjoying the ride! That's what we like to hear. You'll have to swing by our shop sometime. We're right by the Canoga x Nordhoff intersection

[@AlexielRaziel]

What you're seeing is the effects of redlining, which was legal segregation through neighborhood zoning and the deliberate defunding/underfunding of black/brown neighborhoods. That meant less resources and money for housing/business development, schools, community spaces, etc. Often, the only people that can afford to purchase homes in a lot of these areas are developers.. many who do not live in those neighborhoods, and often get tax breaks, so the money never goes back into that community. And sometimes, tax payer money from these neighborhoods is taken to subsidized schools and development in wealthier neighborhoods. There's a great book called "The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America" by Richard Rothstein which explains redlining. This was 100 years in the making- and it's not confined to Philly alone. But we can undo it if we join as a community and put pressure on lawmakers. ❤️✊🏽
