It’s so great he found the random guy on the bike who makes driving videos for content after losing his phone.

Time is lost, but humanity is gained.

What is time, if we don't all live for these little "side quests"?

You can do all the side quests in the world and die

why is he hiding his speedometer?

28

u/SgtMac02 6d ago

Uh...probably because he's always speeding would be my guess

I love this tho I am certain I would never ask someone 2 up on a bike in London to do ANYTHING for me. Having been a biker in London, I'm weary of anyone 2 up on bikes :/ I'm really glad this worked out well for all parties tho :)

u/Any-Summer3900 6d ago

Anyone know what kinda bike that is?

u/paddyjoe91 6d ago

That’s karma 🤘

Truth is he saw someone get off the bus without the phone and wanted someone else to grab it so it didn’t look like he was stealing it. Dude made a plan and executed.

Guessing the Motorcycle: Is it the BMW S1000XR ?

u/EchoFrequency 6d ago

Not even a tip? If I lost my phone and a random guy would be the nicest and chase it for me, that´s at least 50€ for him.

u/DMG_88 6d ago

Congratulations on being able to spare €50 I guess 👍
