New Wheels: A Big Heart in a Small Town

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 เม.ย. 2019
- Robert uses his time and talents to make custom lowrider bicycles for his local community in Pocatello, Idaho. He created a program called Big Brother Lowriding, combining his passion and his compassion in a way that helps connect those in need with transportation and mentorship. When Robert isn’t working on bikes, he's serving meals at the only soup kitchen in town at the local Salvation Army. He has become a mentor to the local community, but his life wasn’t always this way. Watch this video to hear Robert’s story.

I clicked for the bike and stayed for the transformation! He seems like a nice guy!
Me too!!👊👊👊
Yooo me to but ayy that’s right💯💯
🤣Me too. And I didn't expect to find this comment.
Facts . I'm starting to see things the same also
Fkn same lol
I’m Chicano and it makes me proud to see young men and women be inspired by the Lowrider Culture. What this man is doing is totally what the Lowrider Culture is all about. Keep it up and more success in your life my brother.
Yup and he is straight up feeding people as well. Much respect.
Hallelujah vato
He ain’t even raza
@@FullPureblood He aint? Either way hes Cholo to the bone, not about to hate on taht at all.
God is good.
I just buried my DAD yesterday
This really touched and uplifted my broken heart
God bless you. Stay strong.
Johanna Duque... My sincere condolences on your father's passing. Your father will live through you.
Honor his life by living a life of integrity. When you feel alone. Remember that his presence will be with you. His blood runs through your veins. His love loyalty. Will motivate you to pursue new horizons, so that you can live in peace in this life until you get reunited with him. I lost my father a couple years ago. He was my best friend I'm missing greatly. He was not able to see me sober. But I was able to ask him for forgiveness, while I was holding his hand. And he was dying. I was not able to honor him before. But my life has change for the better... ! I Honor him by loving my self and making good choices.
Life is full of memories, and when you stop having memories, then they will be memories of you.....!
God bless you and your Dad- may he Rest In Peace
You're strong...don't ever forget that.
Been a year now without dad...never alone brother
I bet he’s looking at you very happy and knowing you’ll be okay
"People who knew me before would never believe that I am this person, and the people who know me now would never believe I was that person"
“He’s helped me realize I can be a good person, even after what I’ve done.”
Beautiful.
I met this dude he served meals at salvation army ..he has a good spirit about himself
The gift of giving is bigger than the gift of receiving.
Giggity.
This is a man that someday will be missed by his entire community. Be kind
Nothing is too big to accomplish. As Robert says “one bike at a time...” I wish him and all the folks that come in contact with him the best in life. 💪
"I see God in the food " We all need to serve each other instead of Hate one another. Our blood is all the same color.
If only
Elites love them some divide and conquer
💯 Juan. God is love.

Yeah sure, except there’s evil out there. This man wasn’t evil, he was lost and alone, as are many others. Other people want to abort babies up to the point of conception, there is no getting along
This is the internet so I shouldn't be, but I'm still kind of surprised this video has almost 150 thumbs down. People who wanted a low rider bike growing up but never got one's all I come up with. lol
This man's making a difference, much respect to him.
I was wondering the same thing:)
It's likely mostly bots doing the thumbs down, youtube employs them to keep their algorithm working how they want. They can't have videos with no thumbs down or it fucks things up.
No doubt, my man!!! Seriously though, any thumbs down on a positive connection w God, w self and then w community get a thumbs down
How can you h8 on.... Oh right, yo you already called it when you said they're the CHUMPS of the WORLD w their "Waaa-waaaaa-waa, i never got a lowerider bike! (wipes tears & CHUMP exclaims) They're dumb anyway!"
They cant compete w Robert's worst not even against their shittiest best!!!
THEY CANT BE ROBERT & HATE HIM $ IT? Robert is BADASS PEOPLE & those ASSES are just BAD PEOPLE
LMMFHBCPRAOSHITISMP (Laughed My Half-Breed Cajun Puerto Rican Ass Off So Hard I Think I Shit My Pants).
Probably from his rivals norte im assuming here. So idk ..
My mum got me my first lowrider bike at 4, it was all gold & sparkly. As a kid i thought it was ugly but now im grown i realised how cool it actually was & popular they are, plus the culture behind them. Now i want it back lol but we sold it coz i cried about it😩😭
It's stories like this that give me hope in humanity.
Amen hermano!
God bless Robert and the Salvation Army. Jesus Christ is Lord!
Amen yes Amen
Amen , thank you Jesus
Jesus is not God
this comment made me close the video
STFU
How can you not like when people change their lives for the good,everyone deserves a chance and help one another . May GOD bless you brother.
This is that greatness of America 🇺🇸 that people talk about
I have lost faith in many ways, I’m a chef!
“I see God in the food!”
Best words I’ve heard in a long time!
If you look close enough, you can see God in anything, because God is everything.
@Arnold Polin it says that in the bible. you have been given a gift.
it says that in the bible. god is giving a lot of people his gifts.
@Arnold Polin sounds so true. grown up in a catholic country it has made me question the catholicism which lies about itself being of Christian Faith. but never the less i never stopped knowing that there is a Father in heaven that created us and gave us the gift of love and free will.
the only thing missing was his word and i believe that his word is unchanged if you have opened yourself to the Truth.
the parts of the Bible that are manipulated by mistranslation are easily decoded like the one that catholic satanism misdescribes where they say : "if you do not follow the gouvernment then it is a sin" but the greek word mistranslated as gouvernment acutally meant Gods Kingdom.
i never read it from beginning to end but looking into what is written in the BIble has opened my eyes to many things i would have not known.
everything that is written in the Bible willl make your life fuller if you follow it.
@@everything777 God made everything. Dont confuse the Creator with the creation ,thats called pantheism..
When you stop treating people like animals. Of course they wont act like animals.
Amen to this brother in CHRIST. I myself just got out of prison for the last time. I'm currently in a veteran's rehab center trying to get right. 2020 was one crazy year. I got covid twice, lost several jobs, and me and my wife of 10 years split up. I have nothing except some clothes. But I know I have JESUS so all is good. I'm very inspired by this video.
Sending positive energy and much blessings💜🙏💜
@@faye7800 Amen. May our GOD bless you abundantly in this life and in the next.🙏

Keep the faith God is in control, And he will never lead you in the wrong direction!
@@DMoney505 amen brother. GOD bless you.
This is what we need man. This is how we can realize that we are all family. All things are possible with Christ!
I don’t even like low riders but this was a damm good story.
If I am not in any hurry, are lowriders comfortable and fun ? Keeping the bling aspect aside
@@sauravbasu8805 I have no idea. I’ve never owned or ridden one before. If I had to guess, I would say they’re probably not as comfortable as a beach cruiser.
When I was 14 i wanted a lowrider bike now at 34 i got a full custom lowrider bike I call her Twisted Faith
Iv gotten so much respect n some haters I show it off some as I can
Being in Phoenix the sec biggest lowrider state where I grow up wouldn't charge it for the world
Your bike baddass bro....i had one when i was younger...but of course down here in texas niggaz wasnt riding them.....went to get in painted ir got stolen.Just a cheap put together.32 now and im still into it....so salute to you Looking to build.You get parts online?
I've always wanted one too. I'm also 34 and still have a few parts. Gotta get more to put it all together but Lowrider bike parts are kinda hard to find now
@@760rydah5 Have you tried bicycledesigner.com they have a bunch of parts for sale
This is very inspiring. This young man and the woman who gave him a chance are both amazing. Greetings and respect to all from Durango Mexico 🇲🇽
An angel comes in a mysterious way God bless this man.
No joke, I thought he was a Mexican homie😎. Came for an LA vibe hip-hop track🎶, left knowing Idaho has homie culture
Idaho has tons of raza. A L O T
Its everywhere. Beautiful cultures being introduced to small towns
Whats a Idolhoe?
@@διαβόητο23φάντασμα Idaho is New California 🤣
his mom is probably a chicana. and he has his dads white sir name. i have a nephew who is half white and Mexican.
Robert your a leader and an inspiration. The Lowrider community is proud of you homie. Greetings from Los Angeles
respect to all the Natives and Mexican-Americans doing their part to make this world a better place. from a 1/4 Mexican (LOL) such as myself from Texas 🤘

Everyone has something they can do to make the world better. Great story.
a very smart and attractive young man he is, the most attractive thing about him though is his attitude, i hope the right person sees this and changes their ways.
I'm Chicana Much Love and Respect ❤️🙏
Amazing video. Came for the bikes, stayed for the heart and story! Inspiring.
I actually wrote a song like 5 years ago called a big homie from a small town for my primo who passed away RIP but the title reminded me of you..much respect from NELA.. North East LA
Saludos compa desde south central Los Angeles
Proud of you brother..😢
Glassell park right here
Remember the rascals and the ville would be always getting into it?
@@RhiceyHarierar it was was ruff bro from mid 80s and probably before but I know about that time is when I was coming up all the way up through the late nineties seemed like everybody was going at it. Lost some good homies and some familia during that time...
“If you give me a second chance I promise I will do right”

God bless this Homie much love from all us VATOS in salt lake city Utah. Luv u neighbor
Society made out people with our appearance to be monsters. You’ve heard it before “ don’t judge a book by it’s cover”.
@XEREBRL Toxic minded?
Can we not just put these differences aside and just get along as a human race...guess we can't just yet.
@Eternal Tao The disturbing truth. I had hope once but no more. When racism is being passed down to generations, the cycle will never stop.
@XEREBRL you on crack fuck out of here
@XEREBRL How can you still believe in Quetzalcoatl? Lmfao
This is the stuff I want to see all my Gente doing!!! This man stands for todo in the LowRider community, Pero it doesn’t necessarily have to be in the Lowrider scene, it could be anything that is a positive factor in your life as well as the lucky ones around you! Saludos Robert, Allow me to send mi amor y respectos!!! I want to see more vids like this!!
Me too homeboy
You know man. This is what this world's needs. Society is focused on material and self absorbed lifestyles and care more about useless social media figures then REAL people doing REAL things. Robert is a Champ
Damn.
Good for this guy.
The Greatest gift is knowing when you help someone else u are able to also Help yourself!
And everyone needs help in life!
This story hits home. Makes me damn happy to see this. We need more positive influence in our lives. This man is doing it. Nothing more is powerful than that.
Came for the bike, stayed for the story! Glad to see others keeping the Lowrider’s going. Great work Robert
Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who hope in His mercy,
@MALACHAI SHASHU Brother you have bought the lie, and YOUR SELLING it! Every knee will bow every tongue confess, that Jesus Christ is Lord. I hope you come out of the delusional thinking you’re surrounded with. You got a pretty good rant there though 👍🏻
@MALACHAI SHASHU 👌
Hommie has a Big ♥
Honor and integrity.
He kept his promise!
He was hard and has become Sweet and caring.
Not all heroes wear Capes!
Robert keep it up Brother 🙏🏿
Very blessed man... The healing arms of angels are comforting and protecting him... You have a higher calling, answer it!!🙏
Hey dawg, much props to this homeboi... Greetings from Cali 🇺🇸.
This is a real Vato. This is what homies should strive to be, this is a real path to true manhood. The genuine selfless service to others is what makes a person grow and reach a real sense of fulfillment. Much respect homie, may God keep you blessed and safe. 520 AZ
I'm happy people like this can be recognized. This world we live in the bad is recognized more than the good its sad but im glad this guy was seen. 🤝🫂
All the homeless people are riding around in lowrider bikes..ORALE
Simon gotta ride with some style
“Better keep the blankets over your head pendejo. So your fluorescent skin don’t keep me awake all night.”
Clicked for the bike also, great job Robert. Keep it up.
Robert, I admire you for what you do. You are blessed in so many ways! God had a plan for you all along , keep doing what God intended for you to do!!
MAD RESPECT ✊ THANK YOU 🙏
"I see God in the food" got that right lets always give thanks to the one and only true God. For it is through him that we dont starve.
@Buenas Intenciones that has nothing to do with what i said if u dont understand it then thats your ignorance.
Ye well keep that same energy when your soul cries out to God while you burn in hell. Desconhecedor
First god, and then everything else. Your on the right my boy.
@@Ruudie92
Im sure you have proof of your claim but are just too afraid to share it.
Always capitalize Fathers name.
God is deserving of it.
✌N ❤
It must suck to be you. What do you care what others believe? If they find joy in something you’re the kind of person that wants to put it down. That must be a miserable existence
@@jasonc8241
Just as you *just* did ?
😆
@@Ruudie92 the realization comes when past and future thoughts are cleared from your mind. Once you stumble to the present the lighting strikes, momentarily but inlighment is that way.
But the Lord said to Samuel, “Do not look on his appearance or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him. For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart

Awesome video. I was in a bad situation and every time I had to get a hot meal Robert never failed to put a smile on my face. Keep on doing what you are doing.
God bless you brother I'm from Malaysia I respect you for what you do for people
I clicked for the bike also and stayed for the transformation. Makes me want to try to harder to be a better person then I already am. Keep up the good work and inspiring others to change
We all go trials and tribulations in our lives but once you get that first instance when you help someone else better their lives, you are instantly hooked and it does nothing but bring joy to your heart. Then it gives you that drive to better yourself but also move forward with helping others. Mad props to this guy and I hope it inspires all of us to help each out
One important thing we should teach our kids growing up Is not to judge a person by their looks . You know The dont judge a book by its cover , can help & take us a long ways . Keep up tha good work Robert much love from Dallas Tx 👍
People care about that overPeople care about that over Doc's appearance. If they don't look like Johnny Depp or Glen Ellen a judge sadly to say. :-( but true
Why not judge someone for their look? Gangsters want the appearance of a gangster no? CEOs want the look of ceos... fraternity dudes dress like how they do... one video can’t do anyone justice it only shows you what they want you to see never knows what’s really goin on
Nah sometimes to stay alive it's best to judge....
My Dad loved lowrider bikes too and it saved his life chase him out of trouble he said
Thankyou for your sacred service! Stay pure n blissful!
Robert...you are doing a great Job, GOD is good brother. Keep going and doing what you are doing. GOD Bless you Carnal.
tell this day i remember my grandpa gived me this bike and it was so nice and i ride it and man i loved riding my low low bike and then met some people that my grandpa is apart of this car club and i never had so much fun having a bike i have thanks for this video.
Such a blessing....someone is cutting onions ! Such a great testimony 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I grew up in Compton in the 70s and had a girlfriend who lived in an area called "fruit town". A lot of little cholitos lived there, but I respected them and they were cool. A group of teenagers would always gather by the neighbor's house and work on their dirt bikes. They all had one except for one thirteen year old. They called him "Moruso" cause he was small. His pops was in jail and the mom could only afford a roof and food. I got my hands on a used Mongoose one time and brought it for him. He cried. Broke my heart. This kid grew up rough but had so much love in his heart. I loved watching him work on it and polishing it with his friends. It's beautiful what respect and opportunity does to people.
Robert big shout out from Sacramento. And true respect for showing leadership in your barrio. ✊🏼
Just made the 8000 SUBSCRIBER!..I really like this guy story, I'm in the same boat.. tall bald tatted up arms neck... majority of the people think I'm intimidating n all about trouble ..but once you get to know me, talk to me.. Im one of the coolest kindest guys you'll meet.. I got a family I work full time my job site for man's project managers they all like me... for this guy story It' awesome n POSITIVE..
RESPECT from Wa 509
I'm the only one that has a low rider bike in my town, my family and my fiance are my best inspiration to me , I'm a very family oriented man and Roberts story really helped me to do volunteer work at my local church and I want to say thank God bless and have a Happy holidays 🙏
Thank you for everything you do! For helping others.
Love to see stuff like this, keep it up Robert!! 💪💪💪
Amazing & godbless you brother!
Robert's story of redemption is uplifting. I like how he puts his faith to work in his everyday life with the skills God gave him. Such practical ministry is our strength as Salvationist.
This is a great man doing God's work, God bless.
This is the best description of transmutation of testimonials I have ever heard in 40 yrs
I like stuff like this... Wish there ppl like him here... Building bikes I'm they only 1...that has a lowrider
same
This kid has been trough the ringer. I wish I had changed my life around at his age. Robert you're an inspiration to kids on the streets.
This is love for your neighbors, in his work is the glory of our Father. Awesome heart!
Many blessings to you Robert! Thanks for actually making a difference!
Stay down homie your doin great make our people proud
Damn, i want to chill with Robert. Homie looks like a cool guy to hang around with. 👍🏽
Me too, I can see past tattoos for who someone is. Having heart and compassion shows.
Brother, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS story! 👊🏼
RESPECT 👊🏽 HOMIE. That’s what the world needs more of!!!!
Vato is firme, glad to see que le echó ganas.
Salvation Army is the ONLY charity I will give to , they are doing great things.
The Salvation army actively donates their money lobbying governments to prevent lgbt rights legislature and have threatened to close down thousands of new york soup kitchens if forced to comply with civil rights laws when dealing with gay employees. Maybe you care maybe you don't but this is just an fyi*
@@AngelRodriguez-ix8zr I just want to say, I appreciate you looking out for human rights, gay or not. I used to support salvation army, but they are simply a business. Now I support smaller co ops. I dont support hate.
this guys a REAL G. Holding it down for his COMMUNITY AND SUPPORTING SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION BIG UPS MY G KEEP DOING GOOD WORK
Wow! What an Awesome story! Super proud of you Brother, what an inspirational story. The community not only Love what Robert does, but they Love him for the good he's doing in that town. This story has me in tears. I Love the Lowriding Community it's filled with people with PASSION!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥✌🏽👍🏽. Much Love brother!!!
Thats awesome. When my oldest was 5 years old I would give her a ride on my lowrider bike across town to drop her off at her moms house. Oh how I wished I had taken pictures. Keep up the good work homeboy. God Bless you
So amazing. Such an inspiration for our community. He mentors troubles teens also and tries to get them to see the good in life instead of doing the wrong things. I spoke with him for a few minutes after my 14 year old had court and his story blew me away and inspired me to get some mentoring for my child
What a great person. Imagine, We all have the ability to be as amazing as Robert. Each and every one of us.
2 years later and I still love this guy lets hope he gives me a lowrider for my bday
Robert, one bike at a time. I've worked with people that have made mistakes, I've made mistakes. You count your blessings and figure out your skills and tools you have on hand and you put them to work to better others and better yourself. If you can't help figure out who can. Once you have what you need, and not what you want, the rest falls into place. People will respect you, trust you, help you, and seek you out. Good man👍
I was very sad when my favorite bicycle was stolen, but I felt comforted by watching this video. Thank you very much.
It brings tears of joy to hear this young mans story. Im chicano a child of a mexican father and white mother. This young man proves that nationality doesnt matter we are all human. The world needs more love and compassion from eachother. God bless u young man and keep up the great work
Mad respect, appearance doesn't matter, action does. Keep it up brother.
I heard once that...to whom ever is found possessed with charity in the the next life it shall be well with him. True or not? Doesn’t matter, he’s got the respect of his community. And trust is almost invaluable these days. Thanks Robert.
