Facebook and Instagram down but Terry B up with the 5k JRA

[@TerryB]

Shot on the Hero 10 full review coming soon. Make sure to hit 5k res!

[@Acque__Minerali]

Beautiful low/yellow autumn light. These kind of rides are breathtaking. Thank you

[@AdvancedLiving]

Back in 90-91 I lived on Fulton between Franklin & Gough in a 1 bedroom apartment. My rent was $600 a month before skyrocketing to $635 a month.

[@FreedomOfSport]

This color grading or whatever it's called is 👌.

[@TerryB]

thank you. it's GoPro's new Neutral color profile

[@krisjaynav]

oh goodness...the TL, where I can get foie gras, crack cocaine, banh mi, and a used cell phone charger all on the same block

[@juanbonilla2793]

Another great video terry, I used to live on Jones between eddy and Ellis right when you were talking about drugs and people losing their minds, used to visit Chico’s pizza at least twice a week, not the best but in the hood. Every street you rode brings back nostalgia, I’ll probably never set foot in San Francisco again tho. Ride safe bro!

[@usernamecannotbeblank]

Neat ride. Surprised by two things - how flat much of this route was, and how some of those roads seemed in rough shape compared to BK. The footage on the 10 looks nice, colours are lush. Seems like a larger dynamic range, or maybe it is just better at autoexposure - more detail in the bright sky, less blown out highlights, if any.

[@jppilotadventurez5251]

Welcome to California! I live here and wouldn’t wanna ride in that city. Might get a fly in your mouth that just left a pile of human 💩 in the streets…. It’s a shame because SF once was a beautiful city 🏙

[@lukehendrickson3669]

@@jppilotadventurez5251 It's much cleaner than it was when I moved here in 2008. Have you visited in that time?

[@lukehendrickson3669]

Dude. The roads here are awful. I love whipping around on smaller knobbies (700x38) mostly for comfort/safety. I rode bikes with road slicks for years here and idk how tf I did it.

[@SultanMenzuma]

Jaylan Pittmon SF has always had rough areas, it just didn’t have enough rich people to loudly complain about it

[@heroinbath1877]

Try coming to Pittsburgh and riding. Just as rough and just as hilly. San Francisco always reminded me of home when I was there.

[@OutNAbout415]

Damn I remember growing up going to Market Street it was full of shops and stores. Now it looks barren and all closed up.

[@jucutan]

What's strange is that you'll miss the Tenderloin when your far away, when your there you can't wait to leave!!!

[@SouthLondonCyclist]

nice, always feeling these chilled area tours you do. watching in London

[@punchnazis3498]

"we actually have some new york-like traffic here" the tenderloin has a similar population density to parts of Manhattan. And then you also have traffic headed towards union square/the financial district. So it makes sense I guess.

[@arlosmith2784]

I live there. The bike lanes just put in on Turk and Golden Gate past two years.

[@Intensecure]

Nice mellow ride. Couldn't quite see the tyres, what are they?

[@TerryB]

Challenger Chicanes

[@Intensecure]

@@TerryB Appreciate it. 👍🏻

[@km_loop]

ayyyyy I lived in that apartment building on the left at 0:57

[@earlj.d.6285]

That place always had bed bugs. Hope you didn’t get it. Strip club across the street used to film porn in the upstairs loft back in the 80s. Miss that neighborhood

[@lukedavies9549]

love that everyhthıng has been thought out like the bike pump remaining flush and practical. very cool city bike

[@GeorgeVreelandHill]

San Francisco is not the SF of the 1960s. But nice ride. The Tenderloin is pretty safe, but you have to be careful because it can change from block to block.

[@mysteryY2K]

you know the color grading is good when you dont even recognize your own city for a sec

[@Factor.y776]

you 're a humble guy ! politely letting people through

[@lukehendrickson3669]

Man. That build is SICK with all the Paul and I dig the cross tires on there. Rad vid, too.

[@NoReply0971]

Nice ride, nice vid and awesome San Fran. Was there 2 years ago and it was amazing. Greetings from Europe

[@babeeteeeth8648]

5:26 Backyard Party Kings reminding you to get Twitchy with it 😎

[@lukedavies9549]

Talking about TL, think i've neutered myself riding a bike so much, should probably get that checked out lol

[@crunchyslime2011]

You were in my city! How cool! Hope you had a fun trip back here

[@carlberto7214]

Blinded by the hotline revved up like a deuce

[@drftkng.]

Love the chill ride. The lighting and colors are beautiful.

[@TerryB]

Thanks for watching

[@Alistair_Spence]

Those are some nice tires. Way too nice for skidding so I'm glad you had brakes. Edit: Now that I've watched more of the video I realize that you have a freewheel hub, so I guess brakes are a good idea... ;-)

[@Nobreakmedia]

TERRRYYYY WHEN DO HOTLINE STUCKER GET SHIPPED

[@racvv]

I'll go to SF in some weeks. How common is getting ticked if you don't obey red lights/ stops signs?

[@enoshalcairo3897]

Not common just watch out for the motorcycle cops on market street they will ticket you for biking through the crosswalk if there are peds

[@earlj.d.6285]

Thanks for this. Lived there for 11 years (Oahu now for the past 2 years) right on O’Farrell between Leavenworth and Jones. As grimey as it was at times, the folks were all just trying to scrape by and were mad chill. Next move is back to Astoria where I grew up

[@jaylucas8352]

I lived on 601 ofarrell , Leavenworth. 99-2001. Loved that city

[@retrovelcro]

Wow, makes me miss SF

[@krisjaynav]

same

[@earlj.d.6285]

Same! I lived right on O’Farrell between Jones and Leavenworth for the past 11 years

[@bike_holiday_live]

Super clear voice sound, how do you do that

[@MrStoudemire11]

Beautiful city do not be ashamed

[@conrad6226]

The weather is amazing, but that road surface.

[@ziggypi4813]

love all that middle of the road lane splitting...tiggght

[@ritsmonsaint1258]

whats that thing underneath the top tube? sorry for asking. bye

[@wr1then]

It's a pump bro

[@matthewalderink126]

Tenderloin is such a classic ghetto

[@kylehagertybanana]

man I need to bike there it looks chill

[@TerryB]

v chill

[@MrPhotodoc]

With Insta-Face-App down what else is there to do? Take a tour of San Fran.

[@didiMao]

my old hood 😢

[@Professor5180]

I'm confused. How does he just ride through the red street lights?

[@elsofaraway]

I work in this area and bike commute. It’s easy to run reds because pedestrians don’t care and constantly cross on red stopping traffic and giving cyclist time to get through. I’d be more worried about a person jaywalking infront of you then the traffic going up the streets.

[@SultanMenzuma]

In some/most parts of the video, the lights are red for both the perpendicular street and the street he’s facing. This is usually done to let pedestrians walk on all sides. So you just have to look out for pedestrians.

[@bikepackingadventure7913]

No messengers doing vlogs these days? Is it me but there appears to be a lot less cycling culture vlogs coming out of NYC, and other areas? 🤔🤔

[@FelipeLuizDickmann]

I noticed that too. Empty streets everywhere

[@JTMAR379]

There are no messenger vids comming out of san fran? but there are alot out of nyc

[@paowu6581]

From france, one rides on his bike like this guy goes to jail quickly but nice morning ride

[@pantwone8469]

thank you for the bike check... more please

[@pantwone8469]

quick one like this at start of videos

[@danielhernandezarmstrong8715]

I remember running out of the tenderloin after one too many unsavoury characters were getting right up in my face. It was a bit too much for this European lad 😂

[@TerryB]

It's different there

[@heroinbath1877]

10 years ago it was just an open air drug market

[@punchnazis3498]

@@heroinbath1877 still is lol

[@punchnazis3498]

The reason people say that the tenderloin is "sketchy," is because it is. Clearly it has a a lot of poverty, homeless people, drug use, but there's also a lot of people selling drugs, there's a high robbery rate, and no shortage of violence (often connected to the drug trade or gangs or whatever), including regular shootings. Not everyone is "harmless" as you put it lol. It definitely qualifies as sketchy, by American standards. The Tenderloin is unique compared to many other sketchy areas in other places, in that it's downtown and surrounded by wealthier areas and the city's financial/shopping/main tourist district, so in addition to the sketchy shit, there's also lots of people simply passing through the area, or going to a trendy restaurant, or their cheap hotel, or riding their bike through and making youtube videos.

[@nonameking4874]

As someone born and raised in the bay area, this is one of the best comment I've seen. You nailed it.

[@90sbaby1]

um how is that "unique"? That's what a downtown area IS.

[@lenas4881]

Come see what they've done to the arc of triumph in my last video

[@TheRunner72]

Love the vid

[@DavidChurcheese]

I feel like the main issue with this new bike lane is that people are fucking stupid. In 5 minutes, you can see a car riding backwards on the bike lane, cars parked on the bike lane pretty much every 20 meters, a bike take the lane in the wrong direction, pedestrians walking on it, and even a fucking police car parked there. Keep riding in the trafic, you're way safer there.

[@xjuanx92]

I love how you ride like a New Yorker in SF. Native from Brooklyn I do the same, but usually get stink eyed, or verbally assaulted by the biking police on red lights and being too close to cars. I usually laugh out loud back.

[@bike_holiday_live]

Good rear hub sound )

[@posadskiy_cog]

48/17 is my fav 👌

i concur...bout dat 17t life

[@dennisduran8500]

Single speed in SF. No thanks

[@doskraut]

So much trash everywhere, what happen to SF.

[@90sbaby1]

you biking between cars is freaking scary, stop that

[@thedaresmith]

Dude you started off in the taxi lane I can’t watch this your not supposed to be riding in the taxi lane your not being a good example 🤥 Btw that ladybug 🐞 it stocking And like that 21 minutes 💨 Thx Terry B ,for 21 minutes nothing else existed 😂
