Cycling from Downtown Miami to Miami Beach in March 2022 via A1A
VloĆŸit
- Äas pĆidĂĄn 25. 03. 2022
- I take my brand new bike out for a spin from Downtown Miami to Miami Beach via the A1A Causeway. I was a little bit confused on how to get to the entrance of the causeway since it was my first time, but I found the route to be pretty smooth and straightforward once I found the entrance. It was beautiful to see the Port of Miami as well as all the nice boats along the way.

Scary riding on the highway with cars with a bike. There must be a safer way.
Yes. Venetian Causeway is waaaay safer than this route. He just doesn't know about it
It can be quite scary and I wouldn't recommend it when the Venetian Causeway is close by where traffic is much calmer.
Key Biscayne is the paradise for cycling
You're a BRAVE man.
You should ALWAYS cycle to Miami Beach via the Venetian Causeway. It's a much safer ride with protected bike lanes and 30 MPH traffic. The MacArthur is not safe at all, especially at night, in the wee hours of the morning, and at rush hours. There's also no tall bridges to climb because boats cross as draw bridges. Overall it's also a much, much, much easier and pleasant ride.
The same is true for walking. The Venetian is how that's done too. I actually walked from downtown Thursday late afternoon to Miami Beach via the Venetian, and I started around the same place that you did. I was at the Southeast Financial Center Building.
Cool! How long is the walk from downtown to Miami Beach via Venetian causeway?
The traffic is definitely much calmer on the Venetian Causeway compared to the A1A causeway as you said. It's much safer.
@@ActionKid Are you going to do one over the Venetian either walking or on the bike? I'd love to see that.
I will be doing this ride in a couple of weeks!!
Glad to see you wearing your protective helmet đȘ
I'm a new subscriber, but I have watched so many of your videos when you were living in New York. Hope you are enjoying Florida. Love the cycling video! The scenery is very clear and not blurry like a lot of cycling videos. Hope you continue to make them. I enjoy riding with you on my exercise bike.
Thank you very much, I've been enjoying it
Iâve been waiting for these bike rides đŽââïžđ!! Quite smooth bike ride despite the lack of the actual bike lanes , and the Port of Miami is always great to see , itâs a place where the Caribbean Cruisers are đ!! Along the way was great looking buildings and the palm trees đŽwhich i like đ!!Thank you A K for sharing this entertaining Bike ride đđŽ!!!
It's such a gorgeous view
@@ActionKid Agree!
AK do a bike ride from your apt to key Biscayne on a Saturday or Sunday morning , is beautiful. Please try to use the sidewalk more when riding.
I want to do a ride to Key Biscayne sometime!
I really enjoyed this video. You had a nice sunny day for a bike ride. Glad you got help to get to your destination. Cheers! âïž
Happy you enjoyed it!
Great Video. Thanks for sharing đđ
I don't comment often but I love your videos so much!
I enjoy your videos, keep bringing those videos.! Welcome to Miami!
Nice Priority! Im going to ride Miami as a tourist for a week so thanks for the intel
nice bicycle,,,,,,,, enjoy the ride ,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Thank you for sharing! Wow bike ride lane and be careful not safe freeway watch out đ have a great safety đČđđŽđđđââïž
I am having "little heart attacks" watching how close you are to those cars ...đ”âđ«be safe, use the sidewalks when possible ... those MIA drivers are not the friendliest to bikers .... take it from an ex Jackson trauma icu nurse .... enjoy your MIA adventures !!! thanks for taking us along
Me to Omggg
These drivers are not like riding his bike in NYC! No bike lanes here. Hope he is careful
Yeah those Miami drivers are like Boston drivers only they drive a lot faster and a lot more aggressive. I'd steer clear of them!
Sidewalks are for pedestrians. Bicycles ride in traffic lanes unless there's a bike lane
That was a scary ride. AK handled it like a pro.
Nice looking bike! I loved the video.
Hello AK. Nice bike. GOD BLESS YOU and stay safe.
Happy to see a bike video after so long of not doing them. Be safe riding in Miami and have lots of fun!
Awesome ride!
Very goodđ video
Not sure I can continue watching. It appears you've gone into some kind of daredevel, invincible mode.
Great choice of bike, always wanted a belt drive , they're so quite. đ
Is great to see the area aftermath last night .. who's is ready for the second round!!???
Loved this bike ride so much! AK riding Miami Style! đČ â€
You're welcome
Happy for you. Happy for your adventure. Always fun to ride along. Much thanks.
Wow that was the little bit scary. At least now you know where to go and where to get off and get back on again. Glad you got a bike but man that's scary with all that traffic.
Nice video brother. Keep em coming please and thank you
Good morning, today is March 26th and I live in Chicago. Your videos of New York were great and exciting because of all the history and landmarks you reviewed. Does it seem like Miami is boring due to lack of history and great landmarks? I find your videos of Miami nice, pretty, and boring.
Congrats on new bike AKâ„ïž
Yay for your new bike and this bike ride! đČ Great coverage on the non-tourist parts of Miami, and the views are amazing from the bridge of Miami Beach! đđŽ However, the drivers go pretty fast on the streets and bridge. đ„Ž Thank you for sharing bike ride, AK! đ€
Glad you enjoyed the views! The drivers can get pretty aggressive here in Miami.
Bike tours AK style is fantastic to see. Great for fitness and another way to travel through Miami to see the sights. đČđđ
I really miss those cyclings days with my team doing that bridge!! Is amazing!! Enjoy it !!!
Hello from Toronto đšđŠ thanks for taking this armchair traveler along with you AK to Miami Beachđïž
Try cycling to Key Biscayne and Crandon Park, where I spent a few nice days a long time ago. The Zoo used to be there next to the beach.
Great Ride Ken! once again you took this Old Man on an adventurous trip. I was in Miami about 15 yrs ago for Cruise on Carnival lines. to Nassau in the Bahamas. had a great time then and just now thru your efforts on the new Bike. Belt drive huh? neat never knew they made then then again I'm pushing 80 so been out of the bike loop for few decades let alone year! ha ha. thanks again Ken love this and your efforts I hope you know how much this means to us old folk who can't get out and about like you youngin's God Speed. ECF
Thank you for the support!
Thank you, AK đ
Nice ride Ak. Nice bike too.
Love your NYC cycling and scooter videosâŠlooking forward for more cycling videos from Florida
When you got over the final bridge into Miami Beach you should have turned right. Then youâd have a super pedestrian friendly ride all down the length of south beach on the boardwalk. We just got back from a trip to Miami Beach and I miss it already.
That looks so beautiful out there thank you for sharing this beautiful view
I think the addition of a bell would be helpful.
I like this video....Love the bike ride.
Wow cycling video is as interesting as walking
Nice one again
I absolutely loved this!!! Please do more cycling trips AK. They are so good! Such a unique view. Awesome work!!
Yes, I will make more cycling videos
@@ActionKid exciting!! Thanks AK!!
Dam dude, those cars flying by are making me nervous but you seem to be handling it well, be safe man.
Cool rides...perfect take off AK...to Miami beach the show must go on....regards from Malaysia
Great ride, great scenery, great bike! Stay safe, enjoy the gorgeous weather.
I miss you Actkid from NYC, miami is DEFINITELY not NY zzzzzz
Nice looking bike! Looking forward to your video riding the Venetian Causeway - super bike/ped friendly. Definitely recommend the ride on Key Biscayne -- all the way to the lighthouse. Be careful if you ride near the old abandoned marine stadium. They have big events in that parking lot and they leave behind lots of nails and tacks. I picked up a tack and flat tire over there.
Iâm only 20 min but the Venetian cause way is the only way to walk to the beach from bayside lol I grew up in Miami and traded it for Brooklyn, itâs almost impossible to make it in Miami without a car part time and itâs very hostile to pedestrians and bikes. The only reason bikes are allowed on side walks is because thereâs hardy people walking around. Especially once you leave the downtownish area.
That's a workout.
I have walked across that from Miami Beach to Downtown MIami before . . just chillin with my headphones and music. . I think it took roughly one hour 45 minutes or maybe two hours . . . Just stayed on the side but yeah very long walk
If I hadn't seen you ride the bike in NYC, this ride would have had me a bit more apprehensive for your safety. I'm happy that you now have a bike to enjoy; thanks for the very scenic vlog and hope to see a few more starring the bicycle!
Very brave. Its a shame Miami is not bike friendly. They can do better. That causeway is too dangerous. Great video. Thanks for the insight.
Those lanes are narrow!!
Yes, they can be very narrow!
@@chetperry3384 letâs go Yankees
Nice sir đ
Nice Bike!! just got a Nireeka E bike, and love to ride again
The million dollar question is which is tougher? This or Brooklyn bridge pre- bike lane addition.
Great Ride, Stay Safe!
What a fun ride, ActionKid! And that was quite a sight while riding over the water. Thanks for this! And by the way, were you trying to do a second take at the beginning of the video? I ask because you said the introduction twice. Cheers from northeast Ohio
I messed up my introduction since I forgot the date and didn't cut it out from the final video.
Wow! Hello Kenneth, it's great hearing and seeing your first video in a long time!
I've been traveling myself, are you living in Florida? Great place, and choice! Congratulations, and Best Wishes friend!
Kenneth, love your Chutzpath!
đđâ„ïžđ„łđđŽâ”ïžđ
Nice
Nice video
Beautiful#
It's legal to ride on the sidewalk in Florida. If you ride right next to the cars who have no idea you are there, your likely to lose a leg or worse.
Awesome stream. Your lung capacity must be stellar. Am a rabid bicyclist myself and robustly enjoyed my vicarious peddling from Miami to Miami Beach. ^ _ ^ And your new trim black phantom of a ride looks fierce!
Thanks for sharing but that look like a very dangerous ride đł
26:00 talk about cruise lines, here you see a lot of cargo ships coming and going; note the huge cranes in the distance
Great vid of course as always AK. Thx. Question I hope you'll answer. Why would you get a bike without gears?
Hello. I watched some of your videos from Miami. It seems to me that it is a more relaxing place in terms of living. And is it more affordable in terms of prices compared to other big cities like NY?
That MacArthur is fricken dangerous! Where they have the bike lane cars also use it as a breakdown lane and you could have ended up as sausage pizza against the guard rail. đ± Because except when you were on the sidewalk you were basically thrown into interstate traffic. Clearly the state should have provided a separate bicycle and pedestrian path on either side and upgraded that road to an actual interstate.
Back during Christmas and New Year's 1999-2000 my partner and I visited Miami Beach on bikes and we took the Venetian Causeway. It's much safer and much more pleasant.
AK as you told me when I asked how was the ride is nice but a little dangerous đ
You should of took the other venetian causeway right next too it, there are less cars and that's more scenic
Hi Actionkid, I really enjoyed the video and love your bike. I'm a little confused, I was going to watch the two very long Miami Festivals videos but for some reason they are no longer on CZcams were they removed, I don't understand.
If you want to cycle someplace safer in Miami I'd go to key biscayne. That town is very bike friendly and the causeway to get there is really nice.
Hi, I think lots of people are going to the beach.
Next time bike the Venetian causeway itâs much safer. And Iâll send you a link to the downtown Miami micromobility page, there you can find the streets with safe bike lanes in downtown.
What are your guys thoughts on STEAM DECK?
Good morning...how you like it down in Florida? Do you regret leaving NYC?
No New Yorker regrets moving to Florida. We Floridians roll out the welome mat so good - we keep ya coming back for more. đ€đŸ
bike to the florida keys? lol
5:57 and it will greatly help if you do ride on the sidewalk instead of dangerously squeezing in between cars and the curb
GREAT BIKE JAUNT & INFO ON GETTING TO/FRO MIAMI BEACH,BUT WHY only A ONE SPEED BIKE? SURE,NO HILLS TO SHLEP UP/down IN FLA; BUT BRIDGES ARE SLOPED ON BOTH ENDS,BUT UR A SEASONED RIDER, BTW: WHY DIDN'T U BRING/SHIP YOUR NYC BIKE down TO MIAMI? [cheaper,NO?]
Some areas definitely don't have any area or space for bikes be carefully...
What camera do you use? do you mount it to your bike?
đđïžđ
Best Upload Bro, _ Miami City FL, _ Thanks To , _ Action Kid*, Channal, .... Cheerio.*****.
The more you ride on the street, the more you realize that you're invisible to car drivers. You just don't exist for them.
Hi đ AK! Do they have citibikes like in NYC? in downtown Miami.
How many miles this loop ?
How come you donât ride Arrow ebike? #1 ebike in NYC, i am big fan of your channel but riding on single speed bike is too tired doing daily. Once you are on ebike, never go back to regular bike. Awesome channel and content always. Thank you sir
Good for you but, NOT a place I want to be. Traffic, noise, etc. I'm in Madison, WI. We have 5 lakes and nice, quiet bike paths. I have a trailer cart for my bike. I put a pet pen in it and my cat goes with me on my rides.
Venetian Causeway is a lot safer đ€
Ride on the sidewalks in Florida whenever possible. They turn right on the red and do not look out for pedestrians or bicyclist. Very few Floridians , except for the poor or tourist, walk or ride bikes. Florida roads are not bike friendly.
hey action kid nice video do u miss new york i still do check out davis island in tampa
I'm afraid to ride a bike in Miami. Lots of racers. No one uses turn signals, not even the police.
Hi! I just don't understand why you took McCartur road having venetian Causeway. Venetian is way safer for bikes. Maybe you don't know about it, otherwise you would have taken it.
Hope it is better than a car ?
