Mig muses on 2 wheels

It’s honestly difficult to overstate how important that little clip was. Also, I’m pretty sure that’s Jovontae Turner at :53. Never noticed that before.

I wound up watching most of the full video after seeing the clip. I’d not seen it before, when the whole fixie video thing was happening I didn’t find it too interesting. Watching it now it seems really charming and earnest, I mean corny as hell, but still fun to watch these postadolescent young men entertaining each other with their bicycle escapades

im not sure that i’ve seen that in 10 years, that’s a very well done and effective intro.

lol I remember seeing the intro my first year of college and watching the movie in 10 minute clips because youtube didn’t support videos longer than that back then and I didn’t have $40 for the DVD

I like the aqua - rose - purple bike, but then it looks like an amalgam of three of my bikes, so I would say that.
