Sunday Morning Quick Loop

Had a very relaxing ride to San Acacia, NM (about 15 miles up the road) this morning. I ended up riding about 60 total miles.

The biggest event was my center punching a 6 foot tall tumble weed while riding a back road.

Here are links to the videso for the pirst part of the trip;

Part 1



Part 2



About 20 minutes after I got home the weather closed in and the winds are 40mph gusting to 60+

Just watched your first video. Dude... How fast were you going out on the freeway? Wow!

Sorry 'bout the Patriots... Not! That's what happens when we make public predictions! My wonderful Seahawks didn't do so hot this year. Ah well... And at least you can ride on dry roads in the winter, much better than up here in Washington where things are still pretty much wrapped in white, despite the recent "warm" chinook winds.

Thanks for sharing the ride. Regards, Guy

Hey Staplegunnr-

What sort of video gear are you using? I have a ram mount on my TBS handlbar but the engine vibration is too much at anything beyond about 3-3500RPM and it just ruins the picture.

I've only utried it with a Panadonic Lumix. . .which has some image stabilization, but obviously not enough for that. I thought maybe I'd try a shorter arm to minimize leverage, but maybe my bike just hums up the handlbars too much for filming. :/

The cross winds looked a bit dicey. Fun video.
