This guy Angel is really good at riding wheelies
But not riding on dirt, it seems like he thought it would come to him a little easier, anyway nice to see that he wants to ride on tracks ,
Im not a fan of guys riding in cities cutting off cars, Running lights etc.
But though some may find it interesting to see a
Someone new to a track.
On a side note this guy makes a living i believe 100% as a youtuber.

I can relate why its just so much easier to roll out of your yard with whatever your wearing and have a blast on a dirt bike for $5 in gas versus having to wake up early, load up a ton of gear in a truck or trailer, drive hours to a track, pay entrance, wait around for your turn and get all hot and dirty and then do the same thing to get home and then clean the bike. Its not easy for the inner city kids to do.
Let use Colton Haaker as an example here. Awesome offroad guy , and could out " wheelie " any one of those guys , along with knowing all the other stuff needed to be good on a track. Sorry for coming off like a prick here , but your comment is borderline retarded.
I think they have a ton of talent and bike handling skills, and if they chose to apply it towards becoming competitive motocrossers at the local level and beyond, I have no doubt they could excel at it. That kid in the video on his first ride on the track was way better than any other first time rider I have ever seen at my tracks...
Just because you do not agree, doesnt make it borderline retarded! Maybe its just the perspective you see it from is semi-retarded??

I hate everything about the outlaw side as much as the rest of you. I just see the talent, and glad one tried to enjoy the legal side of dirt bikes. Hes a youtuber and maybe he raises awareness.
As far as theft, its rampant everywhere. You cant trailer a bike anywhere even in good neighborhoods, you cant even leave it inside a van or truck overnight anywhere in any class neighborhood. We all have to lock our stuff up and protect it vigilantly. Its just how it is nowadays. We all read the stolen bike reports on here and they are not all stolen by wheelie boys or inner city thugs, black or white.
I will say its a start and first positive wheelie boy vid.
Pit Row
In the entire history of the wheelie boys , has there ever. ( I mean ever , any where ) been one that showed up to track and rode well? To get good on a track , you need to practice on a track. Being a one-trick pony would get you lapped in the beginner class.
To say that people will have more talent then other's , with absolutely no track experience , is ludicrous. I say that , because it's never happened , and there is no proof or reason to believe they would Excel at all.
Riding a motorcycle, at its most basic level requires bike handling skills, which he has. Everything else is technique, practice and fitness. Its like the MX guys that go flat tracking or supermoto. They dont win right away, but they have the talent and bike skills to be competent and quickly competitive.
That would be an awesome reality series, to take this kid or some other wheelie boy and send him to a riding facility for a year. Have you seen MX Yoga on You Tube? Something similar to that.
Keep in mind, most mxers started riding tracks and travelling to races when they were peewees and had the support of their families or teams. Give the top wheelie boy a year of dedicated mx training and lets see what happens! I would like to see that.
And fwiw.....a few years back I took my nephew to his first ride on a decent mx track , and he would of smoked those guys in that video. He learned in a flat field , and by the end of the day he was doing pretty well.
So why you want to see a reality soap about these guys?
Nothing to do with mx.
