    2:31 I used to love playing Go with the owner of a Chinese restaurant around the corner from my apartment building in my 20s. He always won, but I'd get free dinner usually out of it! Awesome game!

    Living in Tokyo, the only thing I envy you is the bike infrastructure in Seoul... We are lucky to have Bluelug and a lot of very pasisonate and knowledgeable bike lovers, but the roads....😓
    Thank you for your videos. It made me want to ride and I custom ordered a Black Mountain Cycles Monstercross 😊
    If you ever are in Tokyo let's have a ride!

    Really been loving your videos! I love to bike (just upgraded from my single speed state bike to a REI trail bike) but unfortunately the infrastructure where I live in the US is sort of awful for biking. I want to travel more and do bike packing in the future, maybe Korea one day!

    An alphabet absolutely deserves a day off!! 😁
    A fair bit of riding on streets among cars on this one. Just out of curiosity, any reason for that? The group you were with? Less cars on a holiday? No bike path infrastructure in that area?
    That soulraft is beautiful. Definitely interesting to think about how we will think about the bikes we rode in our past in 15, 20, etc years. I'm just happy cycling anything on any surface. Never a bad day or way to be riding.
    Hope you had a great time with your old mates.
    Hahaha that fuckin cars at the end of the video 😂

    • @probablyriding
      @probablyriding  17 днів тому +3

      A mix of all of those. We’re all confident riders to ride with traffic, and away from the river bike paths, there isn’t really all that much bike infrastructure in Seoul.

    • @RottenlyMoodyChild
      @RottenlyMoodyChild 17 днів тому

      ​@@probablyriding that makes sense. Thanks. Excited for the 40min video now 😬

    • @RottenlyMoodyChild

      Doesn't make sense that there isn't more bike infrastructure away from the river however 🤔

    • @probablyriding
      @probablyriding  17 днів тому

      Yeah, it’s disappointing. The cycling infrastructure here is the incredible for leisure cycling. Not for daily life cycling though. People think I’m crazy for using a bike for everything.

      Good coffee can be between £2.50-£5.

    Why are these people walking in the bike lane? No walking path?

    • @probablyriding
      @probablyriding  16 днів тому +1

      There is a walking path but it is slightly less convenient for them than walking in tue bike path.

    I ride a fixed gear, but I’m really not in to the tacky, overbuilt, modern style track frames that much of the scene seem to ride. I get it if you’re riding on the track…But that sort of stuff has no place on the road in my opinion haha.
    I ride a modern steel frame that’s looks more retro (#steelisreal forever and always), with some modern components. Front brake at least is a must for me too… I’ll never be too cool to think I have to ride brake less (although I know I totally could do so.)
    You can’t be cool if you’re dead lol.

    • @probablyriding
      @probablyriding  17 днів тому

      Indeed. I still think a nice steel fixed bike is super cool, I just don’t have the knees for it any more.

    Drivers love saying how much cyclists hold up traffic, but can we talk about the REAL issue. That being how car drivers not only kill thousands of people a year, but also how they completely ruin your "flow" when you're just trying to have an enjoyable bike ride/commute around town! Said perfectly at the end, "F$#%King CARS." 🤣

    • @probablyriding
      @probablyriding  16 днів тому

      They take up a lot more space than a bike.
