both great vids. Thanks for sharing. I definitely didn't know about these.

Good looking update to the site by the way.

Great riding footage! Just finished all of the top one. Bravo.

You know I love the bottom vid. Old schoolers and then Steve Waters bringing in the credits...

Guy in the top vid's just showing off, taking a lot of unneccessary risks, spending most of his time going the wrong way on one ways for no reason. That's the type of thing the looks cool but doesn't save you any time, at least not in this city. It just amps the possibility of getting killed.

Bottom video captures it. This explains why I love this job and why it's the best thing I've ever done.

Both vids are damned cool to watch. Thanks for posting. Peace, bro.

Hi Julio, this is 6689. Touching write-up about the cab incident.

Dispatchers, as you know, are the satellites of this industry - always hovering around but never really tangible to people on the streets save as a voice on the radio.

With that in mind it is very odd to read your reflections here. Keep it chuggin'.

thanks for the good words everyone...i realize that unnecessary risks are being taken in the top vid but its probably done on purpose for video sake. also, sometimes going down one-ways does save time...sometimes. that being said...i never want any of my messengers to risk their life for a package...ride safe everyone...peace.
