Thanks, shadow!
I'll try that tape over the mic thing next time.
I tried it in one of the vids that I tossed (I was down so low, you could barely see the road..lol) and the sound was better. This time, I just forgot to put it on.
The pothole thing isn't too bad here. Only thing is gravel and sticks. That road just after the bridge gets messy.
I also finally finished a better quality upload, but it won't let me run it in the "high quality" mode yet. Says it isn't published yet (whatever the hell that means).
I'll try to fix that in the morning. It's 140am here... time for bed (and then a nice morning ride to work....)

Thanks, steve.

Those covered in bridges are kool .... what's with the full covers on them? , is it to keep the snow from building up on them in winter ??
I think that, and it preserves the bridge from all the elements.

The cemetery issue seems a tad creepy ....do you live next door to it ? or was it just a stopping point for yu..?
Just a stopping point. I thought it would be a good place to get a mountaintop shot, but the camera felt differently about it.
I actually live about 20-25mins from there. I just didn't want to take a 30min vid all the way home..

I got plenty of blur cam , rear of the bike passing cam , front of the bike passing cam , wobble cam , up the hill cam , at the ground cam , frigging airplane spotting cam ...and even a little bit of finger over the lens cam ..
*****!!
That's some funny chit, steve!
Hope you try to make use of it, though...
Or get some more footage.

I love the "Prawn" expression. Gonna have to bring that into the states now.

Great description of your accomplishmentsBe careful. Remember what Sam Kinison says "She's got the pu$$y." You have to do anything she says.

Hey Dylan , thanks for the vid! Wish my ride to work was a tenth as interesting as yours , it's all I can do to stay awake coming home

Highway allllll the way , but at least it's quick.

Had to watch in low definition cos my laptop wont stream that fast , but was a great run , loved the tailor-made bridge , just the right size for your mirrors

You should try again at the graveyard , it sounds nice and twisty , just sprinkle the camera with a bit of 'holy water', works miracles

Well I was going to add a few more suggestions about the holy water but
I reckon his ample use of WD40 will suffice instead .

Watched it again very nice ..really.......brought it down to my drive using
YouTube Video Grabber ..........so I could speed it up a bit and that way I could
make him stop at the stop signs too.......LOL

Hawk, I've discovered many ways to get to work. There are seriously like 10 different ways, and some are better than others for different reasons.
If I wanted, I could take one road straight there. It takes about 5-10mins less, but not near as much fun!

Yep, WD works as holy water. And you can spray wasps with it, too.
Hell, that's like 3 more uses for it just today!
Leather protectant, demon propellant, and bug killer! Go WD!

and that way I could
make him stop at the stop signs too.......LOL
I was waiting for somebody to say something about that.. lol..

Providing of course that Dylan Doesn't have his trusty can of WD40! Otherwise he can banish your attempts at friction and any squeeks you may have as well!!

All hail the power of WD40!
