    Hehe, the doggos on that thin sidewalk, side by side,, with their leashes crossed - too cute.

      Hahaha it is cute. Makes me want to get a third one, but that would be way too much work 😝

    Always great cycling videos, really calm and relax music, it reminds me of the good old days back at UTS 20 years ago.

      Thank you :)
      Glad I could take you back a few decades. The city has changed a lot, but there’s a lot of character which also has stayed the same.

    Great casual ride and video Josh. Your song choice is really on point mate. You've nearly convinced me to get that Fuji X100f!

      Thanks mate! It’s a fantastic camera. A bit of a shame it’s become so expensive on the grey market. I’m thankful I bought mine years ago before the hype

    I really enjoy your vids. Back in the early 2000s I used to visit Sydney regularly so I see massive changes around the city since then. These days I visit Melbourne more( from NZ) as I have a daughter living there. I love the cycling culture and infrastructure there.

    • @joshkwan

      Some say Sydney peaked in 2000 during the olynpics and when we had the monorail 🥲
      I need to visit Melbourne, I have alot of people saying I need to check it out.

    Thanks for the early morning sight seeing tour Josh! I normally cycle under the bridge at the Rocks and thru Circular Quay to Woolloomoolo at that time of the morning

    • @joshkwan

    Nice day for a casual ride mate. We all need some downtime to ride solo and enjoy our beautiful harbour ❤️

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  18 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา +1

      Solo ride is often rare for us social butterflies. So I’m glad I could enjoy the sunrise and beautiful scenery this morning.

    So chill. I'm amazed at how much you can do before work! Also you definitely get your tour guide hat back!

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา +2

      I wake up pretty early! Most days around 5-5:30am
      I love getting a lot done at the start of the day. Makes me feel productive haha

    • @veryboringname.
      @veryboringname. วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @@joshkwan What time do you usually sleep? I'm a classic night owl but the few times I had an early start I do feel more productive too. Maybe I need to do that a bit more...

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Usually try and get in bed at 10:30pm… but not good at sticking to that. Through highschool and uni I was a massive night owl. I’d love to stay up and play video games. But current lifestyle forced a change 🤪

      Wow that’s super generous of you! I really appreciate it.
      Any money I make on the channel gets invested back into the videos (software, camera equipment etc) so thanks for the donation 🙏🫡
      Thanks for enjoying the vids ☺️

    Josh fantastic clip. You really have that perfect flare for putting it all so beautifully together. For me total enjoyment to watch. Sydney looks so beautiful and for such a busy city the tranquility to be found gives it a real richness. Fantastic photos along the way too. I think you should re-evaluate your career path. You should be a cinema photographer or something in the visual arts.

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  22 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Thanks very much mate. I really enjoyed filming this video as well as putting it together.
      I think most cities if you get up early enough, you can find a nice peaceful period ☺️
      Hahahaha whilst I do love creating vlogs and taking photos, I think it best remain as a side hobby, lest I rely on it for my livelihood and it becomes stressful

      Peak design is the name of the brand, they have a few variants of the strap I am using.

    I rode across pyrmont bridge for my first ebike commute and stopped to take a photo, it really is so nice. I had no idea it moved though lol

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา

      I’d live to go to Melbourne and do some riding down there. Or Adelaide.
      Just haven’t found the time to do it yet

  • @z3158755

    Should have rode down to McDougall St at Kirribilli for the Jacarandas in bloom. Missed opportunity!

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา

      That’s a great spot! Especially this time of the year. I actually went there last week and took photos 🫢

  • @zeuszuki6698
    @zeuszuki6698 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Great vlog yet again. One day I followed the coast as much as could from Bondi through to The Maritime Museum, it was a fun morning out. Your bunch rides are great content but it doesn't hurt to fly solo occasionally 😉 👍🍻
    I missed the Nero show where you featured but tbh I've lost a bit of interest in that channel 🤷‍♂️

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      That’s a beautiful coastal route, but also very hilly 🤣
      I think I’ll try and do the occasional solo ride. It’s quite relaxing and a good way to clear my head.

    Sunrise at West Head.

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา

      Probably one of the most picturesque spots in Sydney. But also 50km away!! That’s an early start

      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา

      Sorry but it is not flat. Every direction has hills

    • @BladeRiderAU
      @BladeRiderAU วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Bay Run laps is fairly flat and good for zone 2. The loop is 7kms,

  • @DanTuber
    @DanTuber วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    Hate those green cycle lanes. Not sure what they put in it but it feels rough to ride on.

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา

      I think my main issue is all the debris and also they put all the utility covers in the bike lane 🫠

    • @owenjarvis9368
      @owenjarvis9368 22 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      The cycle haters smash bottles on bike lanes. The bike lane along Captain Cook Drive to Kurnell almost always has at least one smashed bottle on it. Keep your eyes pealed for glass on that ride

    I'd love to do this. I just need a better way to carry my fat camera.

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      I’ve got a larger camera and found it too hard to ride around with 🥲 settled for using the Fujifilm and just shooting jpegs

    • @DMurdock
      @DMurdock วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @ if you watch the Cade Media bikepacking series, Lawrence Carpenter caries the camera on his back using a specific kind of strap. I might just try that one. Just gotta make sure that I don't crash lol. I'm also considering getting a small mirrorless but I'd still keep the zooms because you can't shoot birds with a small lens unless you're a ninja.

    • @joshkwan
      @joshkwan  วันที่ผ่านมา

      The strap they use is a 3 point strap. You can only use it while stationary, unless you’re very goood at fiddling with stuff while riding (and also riding with one hand)
      A good option to transport the camera, and I did think about it for a while. My camera is small enough it doesn’t need the stabilisation strap though.
