Thanks for stopping in my neighborhood, Like I said before, let us know when you are ready to set up a Brompton biking gathering. Wonderful informative vlog!
Here is the history for the PEPSI SIGN. The CEO from coca-cola was living in the other side of the river and that sign was a joke from the PEPSI CEO to the coca-cola CEO at the time. However theey both left the companys and the SIGN REMAIN THERE. :) Nice video :)
Given your thumbnail just want to pass this along... Whatever you think of Lance Armstrong, he said one of the most insightful things I've ever read about bicycles: when you're a kid and you get a bicycle, that's the first time you taste real freedom
Thank you for taking us along on your lovely ride. Hope Tan Tan is feeling better soon. Looking forward to part two. Today it's very cold in the UK, nice to see you enjoying your warm weather.
You guys are just a joy to watch. I finally made it to the city to ride the west side Greenway thanks to you two. And more importantly you're just a great couple and wonderfully gentle people that the world needs more of!
You guys are SO GREAT! . You have really gotten into the swing of your videos. You sound relaxed! . As far as the speed of your T-Line, you really have to be careful not to accidentally crash into Shoko😉!
13:50 My father worked here when he was in the army circa-1970 and this place was the Army Pictorial Center (was the official Army film studio where they made military training films). Jump started his career in the film business.
I'm still amazed how absurd the bike-passes seems to function in New York? Eventually try a trip to Copenhagen, to see how it should be done! 😄 Finn. Denmark
Thanks for the video! I hope Tan Tan is feeling better by now. Those rough construction patches! I guess DC isn't the only place with them. Also, why are man-holes always in the bike lane?! What is that tail-light you have on the ultra-light? Was it sensing deceleration and acting as a brake light?
That is a Mudguard Fender that I cut to size to fit the Brompton. I am still using the exact one when it rains. Works great for people that don't like permanent fenders.
Thanks again for a wonderful video. I avoid those types of busy streets, and when I have practically no choice I just walk my bike down the sidewalk regardless of how long it might take, because I'm never in the mood to be hit by a car door or run over, just to have a nice ride that day😁 Have you guys tried the Garmin Varia RTL515 (rear tail light with radar) or the RTC715 (rear tail light with camera and radar)? I have the 515 and its a god send to warn of what's passing you including other bicyclists. I'm not interested in the camera version though.
Thanks for all your great videos! Does Tan Tan have a balance bike and / or a small training wheel bike? I recently purchased a Joystar BMX style 12” wheel ( with training wheels ) bike from Amazon for $ 130.00 as a gift for a friend. He says it’s of good quality, works well and his daughter loves to ride it ! Great value!
Tan Tan use to ride a Strider Balance bike and switched to a park cycles bicycle without training wheels. It took him one try to be able to ride a regular bike.
I would like to suggest that you dump the backpack when riding a Brompton. That load should not be on the rider. It should be on the Brompton luggage block.
I prefer a back pack too. The main purpose of a folder is to pack it up and carry it onto another mode of transport or into your workplace or home, all the bags attached to it would make it heavy to carry and awkward.
@c ss Your logic makes sense, except for one thing. So much of the Brompton luggage for the front carrier is equipped with a fully functioning shoulder strap, you do have the means to carry it when the bike cannot do that for you. Moreover, a backpack is a burden on you the WHOLE time, on or off the bike...and it makes the back sweaty, which a Brompton front bag doesn't, even when it is being carried on your shoulder. Also, WITHOUT taking the front bag off, the Brompton can be folded into supermarket trolly mode and rolled around like that. This means the bike can actually carry your load for you, even when it is folded. There is now such a large range of well-designed luggage for the Brompton's front carrier block, and the items can be clipped on and off so easily, to me it seems rather perverse to ignore all its advantages.
Hello guys, thank you for the video!!! It has been very enriching. I am from Spain and recently I buy an Electric P line that I use to go to work. I love all your improvements, all of them looks amazing. I'm trying to see your instagram site and I don't find it, I thing you say bromptonfamilytime, isn't it? Regards from Spain and here you have a follower
Once again, just to thank you for the beautiful tour for a guy who's never been to the States.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great ride, friend. Just like the "King of Queens"...
Chilled tour!
Thank you for showing us the museum Shoko
Sweet I really wanted to see this! A Brompton ride thru NYC, with gear shifting. Thank you 😃
19:05 I like the little animations on the side sometimes. 😁
Watching now ❤Great NYC, Great Titanium looking Bike and Nice bike commute . Thank you for sharing ✌ 🇨🇦

Sounds great! This neighborhood was nice overall. I hope they get better bike lanes.

画面を見てると、青空と落葉の美しい秋の雰囲気に見えます。
気温２５℃？？？、確かに半袖を着ていらっしゃる不思議映像。
街を走り抜けるのは、楽しいですよね、でも車との距離がやけに近い、お気を付けください。
この日を境に一気に冬の気温で毎日とても寒いです。
しかし今はどこを見てもクリスマスで気分はウキウキです。良い年末年始をお過ごしくださいね。はい、車には気をつけます！
Get well soon
Tan tan

Balancing out the cool bike with those crocs bro 😂 at least they match the carbon rims I guess.
🤣 #crocs4life I wear them in the winter with overboots on them too!

Very true. I am glad I rediscovered my bike as an adult. It brings back many memories of fun times.

BRO Love those riding Crocs 🤙 ❤ That is soooo CooL man 🇨🇦 Ooops CAKES too yummy
lol I ride with Crocs year round even in the winter!
@@BromptonFamilyTime whoaH ! CooL winter season with Crocs ... beastmode ON . Amazing
You guys are SO GREAT!
.
You have really gotten into the swing of your videos. You sound relaxed!

As far as the speed of your T-Line, you really have to be careful not to accidentally crash into Shoko😉!
Thanks. The weather was perfect that day. Its already 20 degrees colder now lol.

Just notice your channel. Subscribed today.
Thanks for subbing
7:25 Its the New York Way, yo! 😁
I'm still amazed how absurd the bike-passes seems to function in New York? Eventually try a trip to Copenhagen, to see how it should be done! 😄 Finn. Denmark
I'm sure they are much nicer there! One day I will.
Thanks for the video! I hope Tan Tan is feeling better by now. Those rough construction patches! I guess DC isn't the only place with them. Also, why are man-holes always in the bike lane?! What is that tail-light you have on the ultra-light? Was it sensing deceleration and acting as a brake light?
I hope so too! It's the Magic Shine Brand rear light. They will have a Black Friday sale soon. I have a video on it. Please check it out.
What rear light are you using? It looks pretty good. I’ve recently got the Bontrager Flare RT and it is blinding, especially at night 😄
Magic Shine brand rear light. I have a video on it. Its great for the price. They will have it on sale for Black Friday.
@@BromptonFamilyTime Thank you, I’ve just watched the video 🤓
Hi! Love your snippets of your life on Bromptons! What rear mudguard is that on Shoko’s bike? Thanks!
That is a Mudguard Fender that I cut to size to fit the Brompton. I am still using the exact one when it rains. Works great for people that don't like permanent fenders.
@@BromptonFamilyTime great! Where can I order one from? Or any particular brand?
@@DamienMah 👩🏻Hi! This is the link that you can see how Shu did it and explain about the brand.

We walk our bikes too especially if we have Tan Tan with us. I get really tired on long rides from having to pay extra attention riding in traffic.
@@BromptonFamilyTime Exactly. Thanks again for your videos and snack stops 😋
Hi. Would you happen to know if the T Line hinge clamps and levers would work on a C Line?
I have no first hand experience, but I would imagine they are different since aftermarket accessory makers always have them listed separately.
@@BromptonFamilyTime thanks a lot!
Salutos! Can you show us about your office? How you store your brom in there?
I simply leave my bike unfolded in the hallway. I don't keep my bikes folded.

What do you do with the Bromptons when you go into a store?
It depends on the store but we go into most places with the Bromptons or one of use waits outside if it is a quick stop.
Can I ask why your handbrakes r facing downward
My ebike came like that, but I raised em level so I can reach em
I can reach them fine. I prefer they are down so the cable doesn't rub when folded.
Where is Tan Tan?
Home sick watching TV lol.
@@BromptonFamilyTime lol
I would like to suggest that you dump the backpack when riding a Brompton. That load should not be on the rider. It should be on the Brompton luggage block.
I love my backpack. It just allows me to have my hands free when we do our family rides. The block bags are nice for solo rides (according to Shoko).
@@BromptonFamilyTime I’m the same as you, I hate having stuff attached to my bike. I’d much rather a light backpack.
@@ARlELATOM Same!
