(P)The bicycle is the slow death of the planet. A cyclist is a disaster for the country's economy: cyclist does not buy cars and does not borrow money to buy. He does not pay for insurance policies. He does not buy fuel, does not pay for the necessary maintenance and repairs. He does not use paid parking. He does not cause serious accidents. He does not require multi-lane highways. He does not get fat. Healthy people are neither needed nor useful for the economy. They don't buy medicine. They do not go to hospitals or doctors. Nothing is added to the country's GDP (gross domestic product). On the contrary, every new McDonald's restaurant creates at least 30 jobs: 10 cardiologists, 10 dentists, 10 dietary experts and nutritionists, and obviously, people who work at the restaurant itself." Choose carefully: cyclist or McDonald's? It is worth considering. P.S. Walking is even worse. Pedestrians don't even buy bicycles.

I live in Car city USA and this video has inspired me to build up a new bike today and ride it to uni everyday from now on. Burn Fat Not Oil!

This is what i preach to people all the time , but no one listens , all they wanna do is sit in traffic in their expensive cars

Man, this is instant classic @durianrider! Wonderfully highlights all the benefits of the bike life. I think I will watch this enough times to learn it word for word :D

Great tour of the CBD. Sad really, Adelaide is not a big city and it's just choking in traffic. I swear it's jealousy of how much progress the cyclist makes in traffic that causes some of the aggression they have to towards us. Some guys reckon Grenfell/Currie is sketchy but as the video shows this is the best way to get across town on 2 wheels.

This is a sick idea! Peak hour footage, is this chest cam?

We have to wait another hour to charge the car, wait we’re on the bicycle let’s go👌🏼

hmm what would i rather do, ride my 2003 rim brake ultegra 3x9 trek 5200 and stay lean or sit in traffic and get fat!

Funny how they don't teach this in school, it's like they don't want you to know. That's why I enrolled in Durianrider University. IYKYK

Great vid Harley. a POV of how to navigate through the city on bike. Got a Trek Madone 4.5 with 105 for $700 and a Madone 4 series Frame for $450.

Durianrider you tell it exactly how it is - ride on bro.

Sadly often it’s healthier to drive a car because of all the toxic car-exhausts you have to inhale deeply as a cyclist. In the cars the polluters breahte filtered air.

In a city it's great, but when you live 80+km from work in the canadian winter it hard, will do a ride in the morning when spring is gonna be there enough. Thanks for the motivational video.

I love this! But I gotta ask. Full natty?

What's with riding through the red lights?

this was quite enjoyable

Should be required viewing. Says it all. Great vid

0:28 I would disagree partly, you know you are EXTRA lean when in the shadow, your arm looks like a twig and you cannot see any separation of muscles from wrist to shoulder. You're not truly lean unless your bicep is no bigger than the width of your forearm. Only PEAK performing runners and cyclists know the feeling

driving in the city is the absolute worst...

I stopped cycling after I fell and got a crack in my arm bone. I was being stressed by a fat foreigner in a car who was annoyed that someone was cycling, so he drove as close as he could. Now I walk or take the bus.

Nice Vid. You must get a lot of shit from car drivers, riding that close to their cars? Cracked me up.

@@Austin_Boath You are under the assumption people get all there electric from the grid. Your are discarding people that have self generated setups that don't use the grid. So in my case its 100% from the sun not the grid because I like FREE power. manufacturing is done outside of Austrralia and because I am Australian I don't' give a fuck about what other countries do only what this country does. The rest of the would could burn people to death for all I care as long as its not in Australia.

What about inhalling all those fumes during cycling? Arent you worried for your health?

Imagine sitting behind a car at ur lights then getting rear ended…happens too much! NEVER sit behind a car. Even in a car you are at risk but can’t do anything about it but pray someone has seen the red light or slowing of traffic.
