Video: A P.O.V. Look At A BMX Ride Around Los Angeles
Professional BMX cyclist Nigel Sylvester teamed up with director Harrison Boyce to make the above video, entitled "Go! 2, Los Angeles," showing a romp through various L.A. neighborhoods from the point of view of a BMX cyclist. The video is a West Coast spinoff of Sylvester's first Go! video, which took place in New York City.
There's not much else left to say. Sylvester tells LAist he's in the process of producing several of these videos in iconic cities around the world, with L.A. and N.Y.C. being the first. We'd also like to emphasize that this is a produced video, and not just someone roaming around the L.A. streets with a Go Pro, in flagrant violation of law and courtesy.
Enjoy the ride!
