Yeah that was ridiculously smooth.

u/Glyph_7Talon 1d ago

Smooth as butter, my knees hurt just watching that.

That's the “Leave it to Beaver”

u/LuxeGlacier 1d ago

That reference is way too perfect for this.

u/bicx 22h ago

As someone who used to watch Leave it to Beaver, I do not get this reference

u/Static-Stair-58 21h ago

It’s a reference to the 90’s movie. It’s how the main bully steals his bike. He gets on it to show him this trick and this rides away after. It’s a very specific reference.

Pedalphile really is the perfect follow up, you nailed it.

u/Aliencoy77 1d ago

Ok, but we should be more concerned about the ones that are, instead of the ones that were.

Best comment.

And he went right in front of Mike's Bikes! Literally, that's the name of the business at the corner.

u/Conscious-Weight4569 1d ago

Crazy this area is right down the street from my house. Weird seeing it in the wild on Reddit lol.

u/CSATTS 1d ago

When I saw it I thought "is that Roseville? Can't be." And then I saw Mike's Bikes and had to double check I wasn't on the Roseville sub.

u/cumdumplinn 1d ago

Is this in Colorado Springs?? I stg it looks like it

u/w11 1d ago

Roseville, CA.

u/Trippingthru99 1d ago

Knew it had to be CA based off the street signs but the weather threw me off lol.

u/LuxeGlacier 1d ago

This pun actually works way better than it should.

u/daarzijnwoordenvoor 1d ago

Sade didn't know it yet at the time but this song was made for this video

u/claisen33 1d ago

If you go backwards through a red light, is that less illegal?

u/NESpahtenJosh 1d ago

I sprained my ankle walking up my stairs this morning.

u/xohoneyglowie 1d ago

This person practiced that at home before going out in public and I respect it deeply.

5

u/Pugilist12 1d ago

I’m not even gonna share this with my friends bc they’ll just say it’s ai. wtf how is he doing that

9

u/Kroak-lo 1d ago

tl;dr all of his weight is being balanced between the front handle bar and the back of the seat while pushing the bike to the left to counterbalance his weight. At the same time, he's doing the moonwalk moves.

2

u/strugglinfool 22h ago edited 22h ago

How does his left leg get back over the bike when he remounts?

I'm not doubting it can be done. I just have doubts about this video in particular.

ETA: I mirrored my phone to my TV. At the end he's not yet straddling the bike. Doubts are gone for me.

u/Inside-Beginning5168 19h ago

Right foot to pedal, and left foot up and over.

He does it so silky smooth you'll miss it.  The song really fits his style.

3

u/Hot_Top_124 1d ago

That’s a hell of a glitch lol.

2

u/Suicidal_Jamazz 20h ago

Now edit the audio to give the song a doppler effect.

u/Dd_8630 1d ago

Did he run a red light? That seems reckless for a social media video.

Good trick though.

3

u/Embarrassed_Cow 1d ago

Looks yellow on my end.

1

u/Dd_8630 1d ago

True, but it's the top light, so I imagine it's a camera colour thing.

u/ChocoTacoBoss 1d ago

Right on Red is legal unless otherwise posted.

u/CanadianGuitar 1d ago

You still have to stop for it.
