Enjoyed the sift for many a year.
It took this video to push me to sign up.
Incredible, and just one guy.

Nice that you finally signed up, so welcome! But if you have nothing to do with it, can you explain how you came to know about this video mere hours after it was submitted to Vimeo when it's the only video in the Vimeo account?

It's this point that @chicchorea is questioning.

Sure. I love cyberpunk and I follow JEGA on facebook (awesome Electronic artist), he just posted all this to his page today.
I just had to post this here.

His explanation is valid, and there's no other indication this is a self-link.

Around the 1 minute mark I got confused and wondered why the traffic was all heading towards a blockade... Had to watch it a second time before I spotted the traffic being diverted onto a separate carriageway!

Adding video to channels (Wheels) - requested by Zawash.

Ban request without an explanation is pretty obnoxious. I would much rather see the video taken down and the user given the benefit of any doubt ahead of a flat out ban - especially when it can be issued so thoughtlessly.

Even if it were his own video, accidents can happen, not everyone reads every single rule, does it really need to be how it is? Never understood this kneejerk rule, from a community like ours.

Excellent first sift. Good find, and welcome.
Please don't let the attempted ban scare you off. I'm sure it wasn't personal, just someone trying to police the site made a bad assumption. It happens.

That's some terrible animation.

I mean really awful. The modelling is fine, but even that is student-level work. I don't know why this made the sift.

I'm glad to see that even though they are still riding like morons, sport bike riders have slowed down quite a bit!

There is NOTHING more cyberpunk than the poolcleaner. I defeated the lawnmower man. I hack portals supported with transdimensional resonators EVERY FREAKIN DAY, man. It should be MINE. There could be no more fitting a prize than a step closer to my next badge in a nihilistic world where I am born and reborn, slowly breaking down the sequences of my cyber existence with each... copy.

Reminds me a lot of the anime Rideback. The main animation is pretty good, horrible pyrotechnics though. I didn't like the fact that the bike is really just an armor with a chest mounted helmet, and yet so much video footage is inside a faked scene, a rather spacious cockpit where %50 of the arms are visible when you can clearly see outside the upper arms are exposed and not part of the cockpit. It made me think I was watching two different movies.

reminds me a bit of the "motorcycle" chase scene from Terminator Salvation.

Some neat ideas, and might be a cool movie when it's done, but I wouldn't back a kickstarter (or similar) for it because it's just 1 guy.

I upvoted just to say "welcome" to cyberpunk amidst his attempted banination.

I like this video
What's up with all this board suppression stuff?
This post was almost DELETED.
Best shit I've seen in the site EVER

Thanks for the promotes Bill.
this obviously isn't the place for this video

*kill

Permanently discarding this video - kill requested by cyberpunk.

Really, board suppression? What? How? By whom?
Since the original (unsuccessful) attempted ban, there's been little but outrageous levels of support and welcome with only one negative comment about the video and even they didn't downvote (and a few tame jokes about the oddly large number of repeated promotions) ....and it's in the top 15!
What on earth are you talking about...again?

I thought it was going rather well!

...that explains a lot....
