DJ Khaled: Go Sit On A Log

by 6

Watch this, then go grab your bike and head out there to find a log to sit on! DJ Khaled shows us the joy to be found out on the trails.

Could this be the best feel good MTB video of the year? No carbon wonder machine. No roost, no gnar, no braap. It’s Florida – there aren’t any hills, let alone mountains. It’s just a guy cruising along and enjoying his surroundings, the effort of his body, the headspace he finds.

It’s not selling anything – except perhaps the idea that getting out into nature is something that we should all be doing. If you happen to live in Miami, for a $2 fee you could be joining this guy on the trails in Oleta Park, a huge State Park on the edge of the city.

OK, so it turns out that the guy cruising along is a super famous DJ and music producer. A couple of years back – according to Wikipedia – he spent $25.9m on a house in Miami. So, he could probably buy a fancy bike if he wanted to and, if he felt like it, a helmet. But don’t let the absence of either distract you from his words or the point of this video. Get out there, smell the trees, hear the leaves. Go sit on a log.

I came to Singletrack having decided there must be more to life than meetings. I like all bikes, but especially unusual ones. More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments. I try to write about all these things in the hope that others might discover the joy of bikes too.
