In this video I do something a little different than what you guys are used to. I go for a ride to get some food and have a little rant about some of the stuff that's been going on in my life. Life is not easy and it sucks to lose a friend.

Take it to the track guys…Be aware of your surroundings & PAY ATTENTION. Stay safe out here this season my people. Cars don’t look for us, & not everybody’s out here to see us have “fun”. We’re all in this game with the same end mission..& that’s to make it back home to our loved ones who are expecting our safe return.🙏🏽
-Much Love✌🏽
#FastLaneGang🏁
This is essentially exactly what I was trying to say in this video! I just was all over the place mentally…thank you Tay. Ride safe brotha 🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁
@@FastLaneD Yessir.🤝🏽 & I already know man, making videos like this is never what anyone wants to do, & it’s such a shame the motorcycle community lost yet another fellow rider enjoy what they loved to do.😔🙏🏽 You stay safe as well my man, keep killing it!
#OnTheRoadTo1Mil🙌🏽
I've gotten to the point that I'm just numb to it these days. A lot of bikers ride like idiots, youtubers included.
The wrong example is often being set, and the hypocrisy is high.
I 💯 agree with you. I have a HD Nightster to commute with and be comfortable, and I have my CBR650R for track and canyon carving. I used to track 9 times a year now I'm lucky to go twice #familyfirst. Take it to the track.
Been here 10 years and I see how they ride and lane splitting. Cars don’t see you when your doing 100+ or splitting
I def understand D, losing folks is never easy. Take your time…everyone grieves differently. My heart goes out to you, the FLG, and the family of the rider who is no longer with us. Ride safe gang.
Thank you brotha…please ride safe out there 🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁
I’m 69 years old and I have had motorcycles since I was a teenager. I raced dirt bikes, I’ve had many rice rockets and now I have a Harley. It was safer years ago,now people are not paying attention and not looking for motorcycles. I use to have fun riding my bikes now I ride defensively not because I want to but because if I don’t it would end badly.
Sorry to hear about this subject and I enjoy the out cruising video your narration is great but the performance stuff still works! Where is that food truck?
Rice rockets 😂
When my mother died of a terminal illness after suffering for a long time, an interesting difference in my mindset is that my fear of getting killed while riding basically disappeared. Not coming home from a ride is preferred to what that poor woman went through (and what awaits most of us if we live long enough!).
Lost my mom last year man. I know this feeling 100%. Even before she passed watching her suffer was a main reason I got the bike in the first place. Going to try to do everything I want to do in my life before my time comes
@@adammark6233 I'd made excuses why I didn't get a Panigale until 2018, immediately after her first major surgery. Given my family history it will be me getting half of my liver chopped out next time. may as well enjoy life while you can.
God bless them when I was young a very very long time ago and lived home my mother's bedroom light never went out till she heard the bike return. I told her not to stay up but that's how mother's are. ❤❤❤
How is not coming home from a ride preferred? It’s definitely preferable to return home after a ride and not get scraped up off the road.
@@Fomogarage If you ever been around dying people you might question if holding on for another day/week/month is worth it.
My home girl passed on her gsxr 600 it put me in a weird mental spot for about 3 weeks so I feel you
D, ride in their honor dude. Keep educating the people using your socials and spread the message and love man. Don't quit!
My Dad and his Brother were motorcycle riders, yet my Dad died 2 months after turning 60, his brother sadly died young due to a bicycle accident (a minibis taxi took him out on the side of a highway whilst cycling with other people).
I have only just taken up lessons a month ago, but I won't let my age nor anything else like the fear of the accidents stop me.
Crazy that you bring up the risks of intersections and some random red car goes flying past you.
You can diet, workout, never party and we all die.
Just know the limits and where you can push it within reasonable safety.
I raced motocross as a kid and young adult and then rode street bikes for years after that. It's been a handful of years since but I've thought about/wanted to ride again but there's SO MANY MORE distractions nowadays, everyone is on their phone then mix it with way more ppl on the road to begin with, more and more young drivers. There's just a lot more dangers on the road than used to be
I’ve been riding since the 90s and every single time it happens you feel this way.. it never stops … the thought process … good video!!! Head always on a swivel and ride your own ride … never try to keep up with what u can’t handle… stay safe everyone
100% 🙌
I myself had a life changing crash , wasn't even on my motorcycle. Went off a 80 ft cliff on my mtb and broke my back, pelvis, collapsed my left lung and was so grateful for riding with buddies and wore all my gear, definitely saved my life. After that crash I ride my motorcycle with caution. And now living in Charlotte the drivers here in general in the south are not good drivers at all. Just be safe out there!
i always covered my brake lever in cities, and usually always when cruising. saved me multiple times.
One of the main problems over there in the US letting fearless kids on high powered machines that need respecting even from a very experienced rider, and these youngsters usually have had very little if any training. You watch a rideout on UA-cam from the US, expect to see at least one crash, it just rarely happens over here.
Facts, the US doesn't prioritize motorcycle safety at all, they see it has a hobby. If it was a more viable form of transport for the masses they'd invest in better safety regs
I don’t trust people in general driving anything . Especially sports bikes . Too fast before people start crashing .
rain in the rain. I loved to see rain out today❤
Gearing up fully makes a difference. Invest in an airbag vest
“Some of them ride stupid all the time” cough (gixxer brah) cough cough 😂😂😂
Gixer brah may be lucky to ever have a get a license again once Colorado is through with him. Not that it would stop him.
he rides about 1/3rd as crazy as some florida people do, and hes still very methodical and been riding for 15 years too...lotta guys try to be him the first year they have a bike. He has vids explaining how he rides so fast and why he backs down from like 170 to 140 and such while lane splitting ec
Gixxerbruh isn't human. He isn't your average rider. 😊
Was there a 40 years ago still kind of there but not as fast eyes and reaction time are down
Had the same first thought😂😂😂
Just gotta remember man we all go one day and imo better to go doing something you love rather than just fading away in a life with no passions. I know any ride can be my last but i love motorcycle's and its a risk im willing to take.
Thanks for sharing. Whenever I watch the news, I see accidents involving motorcycles, and it does make me hesitate to get on my bike and ride sometimes because when I am riding, I see drivers not paying attention to road, and it ANGERS me! Be safe out there 🙏🏿 🙏🏿🙏🏿
I stick to sport tourers for this exact reason. Ergos are good, edgy enough to be pissed off in slow traffic, but to cruise on the interstate. VFR 1200 is my baby. Had a friend pass away in Indy this last weekend, sad but he would be mad at us if we didn't celebrate with a burnout.
As a midwest rider I envy those ocean drives. Looks amazing man.
Riding in Florida sucks IMO. Rains a little almost every day, city traffic is terrible, and straight flat roads outside the cities.
very apt vlog man. Reached out to an old mate yesterday only to realize that he had passed away after a MC accident. I always ride "with my head on a swivel" and fingers on the front brake - they never leave, EVER, no matter what. It's just a routine and hopefully it makes that split second difference when it matters. Every car/vehicle/animal in sight/vicinity is an active threat to be addressed - constantly. Riding is mentally draining and stimulating at the same time. I love it and will keep riding for as long as possible.
Sorry for your loss man. Hopefully the family and friends can get through this. My prayers are going to you and them
Apprecaiate you touching on this subject, and I wish you could do some sort of collab next time your in Cali with MotoJitsu. I think every rider and everyone one of your viewers should too. You and him have the same general messaging! Hey, get out on the street and have fun, but be smart and never stop learning and critiquing your skills as a rider. Very powerful.
I'm 57 and currently ride here in Austin Tx, I can't tell ya how many younger kids' get hyped when i'm out on my H2' and drive like complete squids around me - I can't say that I didn't have my moments in my 20's but I believe it's really the pull of social media to create content
I'm right there with you. It makes me so sad to see motorcycle riders having fatal accidents so frequently. It makes me not ride as much. I feel like I'm playing the odds.
“No dude is gonna wave at me like this” had me dying😂😂😂
everytime I see D Ima do "the wave" xD
Just look at it like this bro. Life is a balance. I stopped riding for 4 years bc of the same thing. So many deaths back to back. I’m coming back bc it’s just in me. All that time going by seeing bikes ride pass me. I drove me crazy bro fr fr. Just gotta take a different approach and know what comes wit this lifestyle. I been down many times. Have had multiple surgeries but It’s not just an addiction for me. It’s the closest thing to freedom to me. Peace n Happiness and if I go one day cuz of it. Least I’ll know I was doing something I love and around a lot of good ppl
Go fast, don't die. More of us, than not, feel you and understand what you're going through. We're there in spirit, take some comfort in that.
There’s a difference between communicating with people and then connecting with people. Thank you bro for connecting with me and many others with your platform. We all have to slow down especially in times like these, and make better choices while riding on our passions. There’s much work for you to do down here on earth FLD..and much more people for you to reach and connect with. So thank you for not just living and riding to exist, but living and riding to make an impact 💯
Thanks bro, this means a lot 🖤🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁
Big respect to you for this. I absolutely feel your thoughts man, it really sucks watching people you cared about and had literally spoken to and existed with just disappear like that. Keep pushing man, its just the name of the game at this point; it wasnt always, but it is now. Love you man, keep doing your thing.
I completely understand where yu coming from and thanks for shedding light on this topic. Im in san diego cali and i sweat at least once or twice a week its a motorcyclist involved in a bad crash or ends fatal. It does take a toll but at the end of the day got to know they in a better place and it was their time. God needed them more than we do. They died on two wheels doing what they loved. Take the time yu need to grieve brother im sorry for your loss. Will forever support you and the channel. Much love from the 619.
Fast lane D your such an inspiration for me. I love the tips you give while you’re riding on watching out for other drivers. I feel the same as you man on it being a bittersweet feeling of riding on twos
Ive lived in multiple different states in America, and I can say with 100% confidence that the driving in Florida is the worst. Even in a car your life is in danger everyday. I cant even imagine how manic it is on a bike.
Such a valid point 8 years ago i lost a friend of mine that i was next to, he came into a corner to hot and lost it and hit a guard rail, his bike almost took me out in the process as i entered the corner first and i can still hear the sickening crash. I think about him often, that was my final eye opener to start chillening out and picking my moments of full hoon and chilling like you said. Rip to my homie and all the homies that we lost doing what we love.
Its been really bad out here in texas too. This past week and the second big riding week of the summer were both horrible. I just hope it ends because there's been way too many tragedies this year.
One of my favorite videos by far.. I’m glad you’re one of them that cares bro.. ✊🏿
I feel ya dude. Both my best friends we’d also riders and passed in accidents. Ride in honor of them, they wouldn’t want us to stop. Ride safe and push the limits when/where it’s acceptable, no trophies at the end of the ride on the road. Keep posting so I can still enjoy Tampa riding from afar! 🤟
I learned to ride in Germany in 97. From 97 to present day I have lost friends and fellow bikers. It’s never easy but it’s reality! I’m retired (AD military for 20+ years) now. Stay safe my friend! Hopefully, I’ll see you at COTA next year! 👊🏾🙏🏾
I like this type of vid. Just cruising on the bike, enjoying the scenery, and talking about something that has value to you. Nice. I like taking the trip with you, hunting for the food spot. Then, finally, enjoying the meal. Would have liked to have seen more of the meal time and your review of the food. Give us more of these chill rides, dude!👍🏽
You are totally right D, Stay safe out there man
I got an alert from Dude Mungus, I think its the same person you are referring to, RIP to him (Ride in Paradise). I have been in an accident myself last March and since then I've been to six funerals. It does mess with your head, but all we can do is ride for them and represent them as we move on, and pray for their families. Practice safe riding and preach it to our newer riders. Keep up the awesome content, and keep ya head up.
Dude is fine bra
Florida has next level cagers…..lol. I live and ride in S. Florida and it’s no joke here, worst drivers ever! Not to mention soooo many riders here in Florida don’t wear any gear, not even a helmet 🤯
Side note, I was laughing so hard when you were at the light following that car and said, “What are you doing dude, Bro WTF is going on”?? 🤣🤣🤣 That is literally me when I’m out riding, I’m always mumbling to myself with these cagers out here…..Lmaoooooo!
Ride safe 🔥
Currently in Florida on vacation and holy crap no one wears ANY gear down here, especially the Harley guys…..flip flops t shirt no helmet….wild. Wanted to trailer my bike down here and glad I didn’t the traffic and drivers are HORRENDOUS! Where I’m from in the DMV area you’ll get a talking to for wearing a helmet gloves boots but no jacket, down here guys are wearing bathing suits 😂
This was exactly why I sold my R1 and bought a Harley bagger. It forces you to ride slower and just enjoy the ride instead of doing triple digits and trying to drag knees.
True and why i got a hayabusa. You can still go fast but cruise on it also.
I'm guessing you wanted a Harley Bagger, which is something more comfortable or a different look. You can always cruise on a sportbike if you can handle the ergonomics. Sometimes I take mine out for an easy cruise through the backroads and sometimes I ride as hard as my skill level allows.
If I had a big touring bike I might be MORE likely to crash it as wrangling that big bus around corners would be a different experience for sure.
@@brandonjohnson5205 😂 Busa the new sport tourer
This is why I have an MT-10. I can cruise and enjoy the low RPMs like his R1s sound, but can also go fast
My little brother passed away in a motorcycle accident in January this year due to this elderly lady illegally crossing the highway she stopped right in front of him. Its been hard to continue to ride since then. I used to have a Hayabusa but sold it cause im tbh scared to crash or get hit again.
I understand completely I’m a new rider in fl and I’m in some of those groups and after a few days of not riding and seeing those I almost need to hype myself back up lol but I always miss the ride too much lol
We need more big time content creators like you to promote safer riding and promote wearing gear. It always warms my heart how you promote wearing gear. I don't care how hot it is, I'm always wearing my black riding jacket, helmet, gloves, boots, and pants. The biking community and especially the sport bike community needs to hear this I believe right now. All the tiktoks and Instagram reels I see of riders pinning the throttle going as fast as they can on open roads is ridiculous. I get the fact that life is hard but doing that on an open public road is incredibly stupid. Keep up the good work and ride safe O7!
I always cover my brakes and clutch when inside a town or city. So many drivers have no observational skills or situational awareness.
Ride safe, guys 💪
True true, I been riding since I was 25 back in 2004 and I got rear ended by a drunk driver on interstate 95 and then hit head on by a handicap elder man on a side street. I did get hurt in my first wreck but I’m back riding
Seeing your garage….I need to figure out how to step my game up lol madness bro!! 🙏🏽 good motivation!
FastLaneD always keeping it real!! We love you and the content, keep your head high and 2 wheels down🙌🏼 Rain looking nice😮💨☔️
Of all the motovlogs I've seen. Youre the realest. Honestly glad I got the chance to check out your videos.
IMO, he enjoys riding and is trying to make a go of doing it for a living. Like his stuff more now than earlier ones where he rode like a maniac.
All your bikes sounds sick!! But that R1 tho........ ha haa! I'm up in Toronto Canada and we are kind of "The Melting Pot" of driving and riding. Toronto is the most multi cultural city in Canada. With that being said we have many different driving habits and riding. Almost every day of the week during the summer we either lose someone or they went down. The motorcycle community in Toronto is huge! But we all kind of know each other because we all meet up at certain places during The week. I feel you bro and I always say to my fellow brothers and sisters With our hobby it's extreme however with our extreme hobby comes extreme consequences. May The ones that we lost continue to ride in Paradise and God bless!!
I feel ya D this one hit hard be was a great dude with a huge heart. Bay Area Riders will never be the same. But we still rode to honor those who can't. Hope to see ya at one of the meets.
First 15 secs of the video sums up Florida in hurricane season perfectly.
I in Lakeland right next to you in Tampa and I agree with and can relate to everything you said. Oh and that crazy Fla rainfall too
Sorry for your loss homie. Thanks for making this video.
Don’t treat the street like a race track and you may be surprised at how few opportunities you have to feel this way.
Nice video keep up the good work FastLaneD
Yeah I live just south of Sarasota, and there's tons of accidents and death. Just kind of keeps you aware of the risk every time you go out.
I have over 200 miles of mountain roads to ride where I live. No traffic, nice weather all year. Complete freedom for a superbike. All you have is a straight interstate. Sad. You missing out.
Wheres that?
@@davidf8671 new mexico
It’s everywhere dude. I’m in Texas and I at least see 2 people died everyday…. Every single day. It’s actually sad but since I seen it so much for so long it’s become part of the bike life and feels like a normal thing now which is crazy. The only thing I can say is ride safe and stay within your limits don’t let peer pressure get the best of you or anyone else. 🤘
Brotha I know the feeling it’s happening in here in TN like so many people are getting into accidents that it does make you not wanna ride. Sorry that you lost another brotha due to an accident I know he was a good dude the bike community is hurting for real.
Stay safe out there in FL, until the next meet brotha
Understand your feelings brother... R.I.P. Tim "TINY" Huffine.😢 We will ride again someday.
everyone has those thoughts sometimes but im sure its worth it to live our life the fullest and do not regret later we didn't do anything we loved
it's the part of life
also your riding with two fingers on the brake lever is great! I always ride like that too! it definitely saves people from bad things on the road
It helped me few times since 4 years
I hear what you saying I’ve lost a few friends on bikes one with his fiancé because of a bad rider behind him numbed his rear tire. Rain sounds so good again my dream bike and I absolutely have to get one by November that was the plan but then now ex that I helped and put my wants and needs aside for her to get through cancer well she got through it and started be a not the same woman I’ve known for the last 25 years together but hey I’ll figure it out and hopefully get one it’s a need now. Love the content all of it stay safe bro keep up the good work👊🏼🤙🏼
I feel ya dude, had my first accident last friday at luckily a slower speed cos someone in a van made an illegal turn in front of me and i hit their side. Not hurt and bike isnt too banged up but still i heard someone local had a serious accident this morning on the way to work.
Never be in too much of a rush and for me im letting my lil accident ground me before i get back on
Yea those bad days suck. But keep your head up man :)
We all will be up there one day❤❤✔✔
I’ve lost 2 friends on bikes ever since I moved to Tampa 2 years ago. It’s crazy man. My condolences bro
Thank you for this educational video, brother. Hope all riders take heed to it.
Love you FLD, stay up and this one hit home man.... Stay up
Surprisingly Tucson is the same exact way man, so many snowbirds and older people out here , a guy I knew just died a couple of weeks ago, and its every week 2-3 people die in a motorcycle accident here
Heading down to Tampa this weekend from southern Indiana. Stay safe bro
You as well brotha! Enjoy Tampa 🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁
You should do a video on safety riding. It will be very interesting to watch
Glad to see you wheelie it again!!!
I'm with you D. Riding makes me happy that's why I still do it. When it comes to wild riders there's one particular one youtuber I think of, he's out of Texas, dude goes mad crazy. I'll say this, he isn't on one of the big 4 brands.
I got my first bike in April. The one piece of advice that stuck with me from you is “ride your ride”
100% im in Wesley Chapel and I feel ya every single day bro. Really SAD. I know who ur talking about RIP
I definitely appreciate this video bro!
I feel you bro aways painful when we lose anyone. Just today this chick texting blew the 4way stop luckily only at like 15mph but she didnt even see me on the zx6r. I was pissed and had restraint but it always happens. I am in southern AZ and the snowbirds, old drivers and texting idiots is non stop. I have been off and on the saddle for 17 years now wont stop
Careful D' Hillsborough is out in force today on 41 and 75. Saw 2 on a 4-mile trip to get lunch.
Yeah , the older you get the more scary it can be out there. You just have to be as careful as you can and , enjoy. Something about the sport life that's just a blast.
I have the same habit in built up areas and residential areas two fingers always on the brakes and two on my clutch lever for engine brake if needed.
Sorry for your loss 🫶
Looking forward to meeting you someday at one of the Orlando meet’s. Awesome videos man!
Thanks Robert! It’d be awesome to meet you 🤘🏾 #FastLaneGang 🏁
Ruff topic bro, but somebody had to do it. Thank you so much for what you do, and most of all, please be safe, brother 🙏🏽
Sorry to hear about the loss of a fellow rider. To everyone who knew him, my condolences.
It's true it happens everywhere and can happen any time. Content creators can't say & stretch it enough, you are more fragile on a motorcycle and riding bikes is no child's play folks.
Respect the machine and the roads. Traffic too, but people in traffic need to respect other road users too. And not have a judgement when seeing a motorcycle or car speed by. Or See a lane split or filter from a bike. Legal or not, tone down. Let them continue on their merry way and do so yourself too. No one owns the road it's for every vehicle and civilian to use on the proper appointed spots.
I can never say it to much: stay and be safe as well as vigilant. Ride safe but have fun. Remind yourselves of your loved ones wanting to see you get back.
I always cover the brake when in the city, canyons or heavy traffic. Especially at faster speeds fractions of a second can mean several feet of stopping
I’ve been thinking about this too. I think about how I should quit sometimes but I can’t yet
Here in metro Detroit (massive scene, motor city) I feel like its everyday twice a day. I agree, its almost like you don't want to pull up the Facebook groups because you know you'll see a crash or death. I guess it keeps you in an aware mindset each time you go out... idk man.. but it is sad to see. Stay safe out there!
That’s why I am extremely grateful to live in North Jersey, anytime I travel an hour in any direction the drivers get noticeably worse. Or maybe I’m just used to the drivers I’m around lol
we are having the same problems in our area 😢so many motocycle accidents its making me heaps more cautious ⚠️ on my bike 🏍its soo sad to hear about any accidents but especially motocycles
Condolences on the order that went down. And rider radar is extremely important
brother... ive lived in Nashville for the last two years and Just moved to Maryville where the Tail Of The Dragon is. im also a part of a lot of facebook groups and im seeing the same thing EVERY DAY... its made me not ride nearly as much as i use too.. absolutely horrible to see. RIDE YOUR OWN RIDE.... RIDE AS IF NOBODY ELSE IS PAYING ATTENTION TO YOU AND CANT SEE YOU!! Be safe everyone that rides!!
I just was hit not even 2 months ago from someone turning left and they smashed into the left side of me. Totaled my 2024 Busa, I only had 591 miles on it. I was pretty lucky. Minor bruising and very minor road rash on my knee and I had full gear on. Could have been a lot worse. It does piss me off to end that it happen but I also know that I am extremely lucky and I am thankful for that.
I like sports bike still maybe want one but man have I started to watch younger people into the Harley’s and seeing them go on 5+hour rides with the views just hit different man..
Bro..Glad to see your are healing. This might sound weird but I just wanna put it out there. That car that slow rolled you at the green light at that left turn. Might have " thought" and I stress "might" have thought you were flexing on them with you hand movements behind them. They dont know that your vlogging and talking with your hands in your vids. They could take your hand gestures while you "vlog"as you flexing on them just because they are in front of you while you do that at a red-light. Idk..just a though. Anyway stay safe. Love the Vids
5:50 this is what it’s like to drive in the NYC suburbs at all times of the day and night, even at 2am someone out there doing something dumb.
When I was a kid my grandfather tried to teach me to ride my bicycle covering the brakes with one or two fingers. I never understood why at the time but I practice this riding motorcycles and I do it unconsciously and it’s saved my butt on an occasion or two.
I just started riding and seeing and reading about deaths all the time is part of why I will not ride without gear. I know it won't save me in all situations but like it's not worth going without. Even family was like it's 90 outside why are you wearing your coat, and I'm like because I value my life and skin enough. I've lost 2 uncles in motorcycle wrecks, I don't wanna join them
Your wheelies are on point.
I know this video is a month old but It's not just FL, it's the same out here in CO. This season has been terrible. Everyday for the past month or two.
