We miss you John Hicks. You’re quite a vibe my homie and it’s great to see you looking well and feeling better and enjoying your solitude in riding and sharing with the rest of us again. Keep up the great work!
New John Hicks drinking game. Take a shot every time John says: "I need air in my tires" "i hope I don't get a flat out here" "Can i bomb this?" "Check out this tag/graffiti" "Is that a loose dog?" "Ooh let's check out this alley" "That food smells bomb" See yall at the hospital 🤣 Keep up the awesome videos Hicks!!
Hey John have you thought about setting up your tires tubeless? It's even lighter and the sealant should actually stop most punctures from flatting your tire.
Agreed on this. Those goathead thorns you picked up in the last video are brutal. If you get one you typically get about 10. They 'll break off and embed in the tire and if you miss one they'll pop any new tube you drop in there as well. They are all over alleys and curb strips around the western US and they're hard to spt. This time of year they dry up into those thorns and areas you rode through okay a few weeks ago will give you an immediate flat now. Slime tubes or tubeless for sure if you are seeing a lot of those issues. They'll add some weight but save you some rides.
I’m glad your getting your confidence back and I’m also glad you put a nice brake line on your bike ! I use to ride with no brakes all the time ! It allowed me to develop some nasty skills on a bike but some small little feeling in the back of my mind told me to start riding with brakes on my bike. And I did just that.
Love you hicks. My inspiration always. I've been watching you for so many years and even though I don't do what you do, you are always amazing to me. And loving you doing what you do. Keep this up. Your dreams are not successful unless the reality is stressful. Love you bro.
I watched you in 2018! Glad you're back man. I know its not easy but it'll be alright man. I used to ride like you do all over the O.C I miss it. Keep it up man!
hey hicks i hope you see this but you’ve inspired me to go bmx biking in the streets and exploring stuff, i rarely used to bike and likes biking but when i started watching your videos it got me motivated to start biking around my town and explore new places around here. without your videos i wouldn’t of known how much fun bmx biking is
Appreciate you taking the time to Upload videos bro...I'm From The United Kingdom Of Great Britain and you going out in Los Angeles and filming is really good so I can see the streets...thank you John♥️
All the fun watching you ride in North Hollywood. Best friend of 40 years used to live on Blix off Lankesheim, good memories man, ride on! Seeing Billy Barty at H.Salt FTW!
Hey John, you should try out some Dirt jump or slope specific tyres if you get a chance, for example maxxis DTH or schwalbe table tops. They’re still low profile so you’re still able to go quick and with high psi but they’ll withstand thorns etc a bit better. Also pretty light if you get the folding/ Kevlar ones
That consistency is creeping back up bro. I could sit thru these vids all day everyday, seriously. Been watching for years and i never get tired of the vids. Being from England it's very interesting to see u cruising around LA, which is completely unknown to me, and talking about it. Talking about homelessness, gangs, poverty… whatever it may be, it’s interesting… as fuck 😂. Even where i live, i now catch myself seeing cool little spots and thinking "man Hicks would kill that shit". So yeah bro just had to leave a comment to let u know i love the content and I'm glad to hear ur enjoying urself doing it! peace and love my brother ❤️
Your like the only TH-camr that I actually like the videos for. Also I’m building my own dirt jumper cause watching your videos made me wanna get one but I don’t got the money to buy one so I’m just building one 🙃
Hell yea Hicks! not sure what tires those are but I recommend the WTB Horizon tires for your type of set up. Best of both worlds and not too heavy and wont puncture easy.
Glad you adjusted your left grip lock-on screw to the correct position and your brake lever too. It was driving me crazy. 😂 I’m going for a bike ride right after this comment too. Happy riding, brother.
I would love if you could do more with the bmx bikes if you can man but keep up the good work with the vids bro and I'm glad to see you back and posting again
6:35 got me thinking... "Excuse me. Excuse me, sir. Excuse me!!! I need some information. I’m a little high. All I wanna know… which way is 3rd Street?" 🤣

Always nice when Hicks posts a new vid!

agree...I'm a bigger dude also and tubeless saves you lots of money on tubes...Stan's and Maxxis tires FTW

keep going brother...nothing like riding around a city looking for spots...you are doing what most of us love doing.
You've tapped into a unique audience man, it's about more than just the tricks now. Dope as always!
When Hicks uploads... Is a good day!!! Stay safe man!
So glad to hear you're happy and having fun with the way things are going, we love it!
