    Bicycle drag race through Manhattan

    If there is one video you watch this weekend. I hope it will be this one. This stuff is amazing. To watch these bike messengers running through the streets of manhattan is amazing. But don't just take my word for it. Check it out for yourself.

    http://www.digave.com/videos/ is the actual site.

    http://www.digave.com/videos/red-web.mpg is the particular movie.

    ENJOY!!!

      Crazy video, there were a few close calls there. Bike messengers are some pretty crazy cats.

        You got that right, Those guys are nuts. I think the 'welcome to the jungle' music fits perfectly with the video.

          Those motherfuckers love to run red lights and yell at you when you're crossing the street. I've seen them run people over and just keep going...

          Sorry, but as a regular Manhattan pedestrian they're more menace than mystique.

                  Hahaha..I'm one of them. Get angry car drivers shouting their horns at me all the time...put up the finger and continue pedalling!

                  Though watching the video gave me an adrenaline rush, too...man, that is really hellacool. Just go with the flow and leave your brains behind.

                      It does kinda make me wanna get a bike when I move to NY.

                      I guess the netherlands are a pretty insane place too.
