Yesterday was brutal...30 minute ride out of Manhattan in traffic felt like I was baking in my mesh jacket. Don't underestimate how quickly heat exhaustion can creep up on you.

Remember to stay hydrated. you easily lose focus on a bike if you don`t, drink before your tirsty or it might already be to late, then take breaks as you do.

The FDR in traffic was horrible during this heat wave, stay cool out there. Hydration pack is a good idea.

Add tapping the blinker cancel button to some other thing you do allot. Say something like (clutch in - shift gears - clutch out - cancel blinker)... Do that over an over even though your blinker is usually not on. Eventually it will feal weird if you don't tap it after shifting. Muscle memory.

Lane splitting/ filtering is for our safety as a rider you don’t wanna be sitting at the fbd if the line where any vehicle can possibly smash into you. Get to the front and always stop at an angle where you can ride between the cars if you do stop at the end of the line. Front wheel lined up with the space in front of you for a quick exit if needed

It's pretty bad here in Alabama too, 85 today with over 100 heat index and this has been a cool day, its been above 90 with above 105 heat index for weeks, worst I can remember this sunmer was I think 98 with 117 degree heat index. You just can't ride during the day, even with no gear you will get a heat stroke.

Could you tell me the deets of your insurance? Liability, uninsured, collision/comprehensive deductible. On your other video you mentioned you paid 1.1k or 1.2k a year I think. Here in NorCal for that exact bike I was quoted 2.2k, 2.6k, 3.6k, 3.8k and 5.5k. I'm 32 with a clean record. I wanna get that same bike so bad, but insurance kills me. Been watching all your vids, keep em coming brother!
@uncleskynyrd995328 күн бұрын
Try Getting a quote from Foremost Insurance for liability and theft only. They have good rates for Northern California. Comprehensive crash protection really drives the cost way up. If you have a drop you can fix it yourself usually. Good luck

How often do you wear your boots? I went to cyclegear and they highly recommend wearing boots. I work in the hospital too but don't got a locker for shoes for me to leave at. And I'd hate to carry covid shoes in my backpack. Our bikes don't really have great storage either 🙁

@@moto.nyc718 I was wondering what your speed setting was for the shift lamp. Mine was 10259 which I thought was high because I can be in 6gear only doing 35 mph. I read another person had theirs at 6000 when the shift gear illuminated
