The NOW Ride - LA's fastest group ride | Filmed with Insta360 X3 !

- 게시일 2024. 04. 26.
- The NOW Ride is a staple in LA's rich group ride landscape. I filmed it on the Insta360 X3 camera (safa.link/insta360-x3) which is a really good way to capture one of these rides. Usually the camera is only pointed in one direction so you miss a lot of what is happening in the group around and behind the lens but this time it's all on display.

Lets give credit to the boy who bridged up and couldn’t believe it. Good Job!
Closed the gap and pulled hard af
What he did was insane!
this is when they were doing the rotations right? surprised he caught up with them!
Time for doping control 😂 srsly though, that was a yoeman fucking effort 👏
At what time in the video 🙏
Props to the dude that solo'd to bridge at the end. That took some serious power in the tank!
and a big pull right after as well. big move
Emmett is a beast!
Time stamp pls
I hit my maximum resting heart rate just watching you guys!
I got dropped watching this at my desk.....spicey ride man!!!
Boy, what a motivation to watch your videos.
Totally had no idea of riding my bike today ("Let's call it a restday, plus weather seems to be not so good ...").
10min of watching this video: "F...k! Have to get on my bike. NOW!" Always the same ... 😁
Thx mate! Had a great ride today.
Love2hearit
This is awesome. King Safa strikes again. Faster than you downhill, uphill, and now in flat sprints
The weakest sprint in NOW history 😂
Sustained 20 mph up a 6-7% climb, awesome fitness levels!
Watching this made my tired broken body ache and set my lungs on 🔥🔥🔥!!! 😳
!!!!!!!! I can barely hold 15 mph on 6 percent for like 10 mins so these guys tough fs
@@JorgeGarcia-cl7of
Yes they are , because they ride all the time.
Safa, solely responsible for making me ride 2000 more miles than I normally would every year. Always inspiring my man!!
Love these group rides, I have recently started doing myself and it's so much fun.
Please keep posting more and you have been super inspiring.
Went for a beer after watching the ride.
Damn, no way I would keep up with you guys! lol. Definitely motivated me to improve. I had to look twice seeing those numbers going UPHILL! Even my wife was like "Is that normal"? LOL 😆
You will be there, just as strong.
@@indusrtial I'm working my way up. I can hit 10mph on an 8% and hold it for 30 seconds.
@@M3Atelier-Initiative that's badass, do some hill repeats and this will get you pretty fast. Start at a decent pace uphill for a certain distance and keep increasing the distance and speed. Just make sure to recover, drink plenty and be safe.
You are the most awesome cyclist alive !! Nice mega wide camera. Really it catches the landscape. With respect from Romania. 🤩
great ride my friend!...loving the 360 shots here. I just started using the X3 and loving it.
I like it at the end when you are rolling at 42-43 mph after the last climb with the final 4, and you are flicking your elbow letting them know to pull through.... LOL Super-Tuck was the only way past you for just 1 of the boys 😉 and that Sprint finish where you finally got the Win for that ride was a RAD effort for sure. Deep video!!
ok yes what is it ???

Great job filming and cycling SAFA…
This is how i imagine swift rides should be!! Imagine playing swift with some VR on and this is the view ❤️❤️❤️
Rouvy is testing VR indoor cycling. In 5-10 years it will be on the market as VR helmets and technology improve and videocards get stronger and cheaper (VR needs 4K resolution per eye at minimum, so we need a videocard to produce 8K in total).
That was amazing! On so many fronts
47:45 made me jump lol, too real.
It's great to see how respectful the drivers were while passing! Tried to leave y'all as much space as possible.
This is a very compelling way to watch/experience cycling - less than an hour overall, fast & talented group, funky camera stuff happening, and an affable host & commentary. Well done. 🤙
… oh ya, and the stats overlay!
Chill vibes great rides 😎
Amazing ride
Thanks for sharing this with us. 🙂
So awesome! Working my way through your plague ride videos now 😎
That POV is brutal.
Sick ride🎉
Amazing . Respect ✊
I always support you from a far..from south Korea😊😊
wonderful riding and beautiful angle by 360 camera , I love your tremendous nice video😍✨✨✨✨✨✨✨🫰💖
That was an amazing performance, camera 🎥 guy..!
I love Safa so much! ❤
Shout out to Mr SAFA Brian! You are the GOAT!, years and years of riding, self improvement and careful tweaking! You are an inspiration dude because your explosive drive and quick actions count, watching your decisive moves ensured your outcome!! This was pleasurable viewing!!
@@jdivesevenine-vg3or careful twerking
Excellent quality, it tends to be a pain to dial it in but you nailed it 👍👍👍
Did that ride with ya guys 2 years ago,” you guys are super fast!! It was a painful but fun ride.
Wow. That is pretty good horsepower!
That was absolutely amazing ❤❤❤ big kudos to the guy who bridged
Why am I not surprised KingIZ has orange tires haha congrats on getting that win Safa!
Nice Ride! Wish I was there...
Massa viu queria que aqui tivesse umas estradas assim para gente pedalar sem sem estar subindo e descendo remendo na estrada aí tá bom demais que estrada massa gostei da câmera também muito
It's winter where I live and I would do anything to ride with a group makes me miss summer so much lol 😂 looks so fun. Got myself a cannondale caad 5 switching to a specialized this new year so.
Cool video!! ❤
You have an awesome camera.....i don't think ve ever seen one like that
amazing video and cam
Great / well done!
See point of big group rides as a race, only mainly!
In turkufinland took part in group rides few times but there racing seriously was frowned upon. So for those plants it was just about drafting long distance, but nobody spoke so it wasn't a social event.
Wow, the new GTA is looking awesome!!
Sitting on 40-50km b4 the climb I must admit it's faster than I could manage and to much traffic for my liking, love the 360 view and I feel like I'm there. Loving the blue sky.
Brilliant post 👍
30kmh up 7% (around 31:20) makes me feel like such a potato.
I go uphill with 10 kph at that slope. 😅
That was soooo good to see a Safa win, I was on the edge of my seat at the end lol. I had to cycle back from work at midnight in the pouring UK rain, crack a beer when I landed and finish the video.
New to this channel but absolutely loving the content. No gonna lie, some of the videos scares the sh$t out of me so please stay safe and continue forever. Peace out man X
thats a win
I rode with you on my couch. Really nice as I like to roadbike and also like to watch other regions (houses, streets, surroundings etc.) in google maps. LA is so far away and I will never be able to ride there. So such a video is a nice thing (y). Thank you
Supertuck going down hill 4th in line.. pretty gangsta!
The helmet camera gives an awesome view
As we say here in Blighty 🏴 Safa is the gaffer 👌🏻
keep speedmyenergy broo good job man
awesome video!!!! what software do you use to capture both KMH and MPH on your video?
sick camera, busy roads
Wow super cool
Great Video!
Hi Safa, what helment mount are you using?
Beast!
I am a beginner, and these videos motivate me to keep riding.
We love u so much champ.
Bring back the TOUR OF CALIFORNIA
Of course SAFA would finish first 🚀🚀🚀
31:17 Unnatural right rider.
Nice camera performance anyway!
What?
Nice friendly bunch ride.
You guys are pretty fast
Holy smoke. 780 watts in the end? Wow.
Was that a Wilhelm scream at the end?
Thanks for sharing this. Watched while on the spin bike. Matched RPM but nowhere close to matching wattage.
Yo! Enjoy riding 😊
Great stuff this 77 year old ex-racer with Afib loved it. Be safe out there. Thank you. Leave your helmet on, I have seen more than a few go down just rolling in after a hard ride. One fellow just about lost a finger, another guy a broken hip, and a young woman lost her life rolling into a park at a food stop and a car took her out. She had just taken off her helmet after a hard 50. Be safe out there all the time. Did I mention his third broken hip.
debbie downer, get an ablation if you are healthy enough!
What kind of sorcery is that helmet cam !?! 🔥 …. where the heck is the mount?…. it’s like a drone is following you. I’m old.
link to the helmet mount attachment?
Hey Brian love the video, keep them coming, can you tell us what selfie stick you used? THANKS AGAIN.
you're a monster!!
41:36 GAME ON!
Cool ride for sure, but… have you ever tried MEGAVALANCHE rides? Their a bit beyond my capabilities, but look epic nonetheless. 🤘
hey, man, great vid! what software did you use to add the overlays? thanks!
I know Garmin's VIRB Edit lets you do something like that. You'll need your ride's .fit file. Though I'm also interested to know if he used that or something else.
@@mostlyboring Did you find out? garmins virb edit? or something else?
Looks amazing, does it ever rain in California?! Feels abit weird viewing with that camera, but great to see different angles 👍
It does, but rarely during summer in Los Angeles, it usually happens in late December thru March.
@@Mario_Ramirez just like here in England then.. 😀
Hey, mate, do you planning to continue "escape from hollywood" saga?
No plans at the moment but Hollywood is still there
What saddle are you riding with?
Seeing that mullet in 360 degrees for 50 minutes made me quite queasy.
"We've got a gap, let's roll this" Try saying that on our group rides 🤣 For us it's more like "we'd better slow up, there's a bit of a gap now."
Thanks for sharing im on my home spin bike folling you
Looks like fun bro I want to join the ride. What I really want is to win it.
im rooting for u always...!!!!🎉😊😊
Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪🇩🇪😊😊
Always love your videos! But I'm not crazy about the fish-eye lens. Just my preference.
That's me dropped on the first 100m of the first climb.
Insane power
What app is that putting the mph and data over top the video?
Nice 👍 and beautiful cycle cab ride and so beautiful i comment from Pakistan
most likely a stupid question but here I go. How you you post the real-time ride specs on the video?
Especially that altitude map where you follow along, it's so neat to see
Fast ride, you are definitely fit. I use to do the Montrose ride when I was your age and older. Can’t do it anymore. How would you compare these two rides in speed and hardness? I’m curious. Thanks!
I think Montrose (the second half of it ~ return leg) is harder. The Now Ride isnt easier, but the climbs are. The punchy climbs on the Montrose route are leg snappers _ especially if you ride with the 8:30a group. You'll find yourself chasing a bunch of L39ION riders.
Beautiful video, and inspiring riders, but you guys deserve safer roads. My heart rate climbed just watching a river of high speed traffic sliding by on the left. Come on, California, get it done.
The angle of the insta360 made it look like the top part of SAFA's helmet was chopped off hehe I think mounting the insta360 (same angle) just rotate so that it is perpendicular to the road will help make the cut line more seamless
what is the mount you use to stick it in your helmet? will it work even on bumpy roads?
@@Dreenee I personally don't mount my GoPro on the helmet. (I don't own the insta360 either)
As for the pole mount I personally use it's the GoPro Boom arm kit. By far the best pole for any action camera for any angle.
How the hell did you get all those consecutive green lights?
Back in the day - way back in the day, Saturday morning the Simi Vally ride, Sunday morning the Death ride up the coast and back from Santa Monica like this ride and or the shorter yet hillier Le Grange/Nichols Canyon ride into the Hollywood Hills.
Like this ride, plenty of top professional racers enjoying the SoCal sun away from Europe.
Rumored that the death ride was named that not co's it was stupid fast, but co's a rider or two were killed on that ride.
Always dangerous with unpredictable PCH traffic plus riders well above their skill level.
😳💪
Lots of cars on those roads.
Warm sun and unblemished tarmac. Living in the Scottish Highlands I can only dream, we have to go to Europe for conditions like that.
