Ciclismo Defectuoso - Riding in Mexico City

  • Here is the official start of the Mexico City films. This trip did not go as planned with myself and the entire crew getting extremely sick halfway through. Looking at what all is in this edit it makes me think what could have been with all the footage I had planned to shoot, but also what a great week we had when we were well. The most unfortunate part of getting ill was that all the rides/shoots I had planned with friends were in the second week where I had to cancel so I wasn't able to put the spotlight on local riders. Luckily I have a strong connection to Mexico City and will be back to make amends.
    With that said I still got to show you some of my old training routes through forests, down volcanoes, and through the less glamorous parts of town. The group ride and two descents we shot was a lot of fun and at least there we get to see how the CDMX riders go about their business. Mexico City is like no other city I have visited for many reasons, but in terms of cycling it offers such freedom of movement and expression. No one cares if you're on the tollgate highway, but at the same time don't expect anyone to stop if it goes wrong. Great freedom with great danger, you have to accept both or neither.

    What a blast! After spine surgery my cycling “career” is currently at least on hold. Watching this one, I got really emotional. There is so much in it that cycling meant to me 😭

    What an atmospheric film Brian! So cool to watch! You really do live life on the Edge! You can tell you were a Courier in NewYork the way you weave through the traffic and hitch a ride is exhilarating to watch and Massive respect to you for your hard work and effort putting these videos out there for us all to enjoy👍🔥🔥🤘😎🤘🔥🔥

    Man…people say road bikes are boring but this, this is what give you the thrill. It reminds me a lot of the fixie type style of riding through the streets going wild. Ik very few people will understand bc not everyone would want to do it or have the setting to but it just shows that it can go beyond riding in a flat well paved trail.

    Such a great video! I loved the still film photos. It brought back many fond memories riding in DF with BiciGallos - dinamos, desierto, paso de cortes, lagunas de zempoala, centro ceremonial otomi, la loma, etc.

    Safa take care dude. When I was younger I loved riding in traffic, it’s another skill that has to be learned, was never mad about going into dangerous tight spaces though eg between 2 buses or trucks.
    Fantastic skill, awesome skills in traffic, keep the black stuff down.
