SpecialK Wheelie Vid

[Hoosier]

Alright, I started a YouTube account. So now, any vid's that I put together will be hosted over there. Obviously I'll have higher res hard copies on my machine for local distribution if folks want them.

Either way, here's the only vid I put to music so far this year. Don't worry though, as we get more filming done, more will roll out

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TiFxEPC9V5U - Be sure to rate the vid once you watch it too, as this is also a cheap means of site promotion (I know, I'm such a whore)

BTW, you can find a direct link to this vid on the homepage in the right column in the Important Links box.

While I know that your kidding anyway. One of the shortcomings I found with the bullet cam is the lens. Like most cameras, it makes objects appear further away than they really are. I did some shooting on another ride where I was almost running up the pipe of another guy. Afterwards while reviewing the tape, it looked like I was still 10-15 feet away. Like the opening wheelie of this vid. At our closest point, I was no more than 5-6 feet away, and it still looks like double that.

I read that twenty20 has a new updated lense or something like that. It said you can upgrade your old one for $50. I don't know if thats what your using or not. I'm hoping maybe santa will bring me a digital camcorder so I can get some riding footage next year.

[Hoosier]

Ehh, I'm working around the whole lens issue by just using other angles and mounting positions on the bike. BTW, Santa is more likely to hook you up if you go hit a mall and sit on his lap

Nice vids
Going to be great to ride in the group!

Man, what a fun ride that was. It was the same day I learned that mounting the bullet cam to a helmet doesn't turn out the best of results. As the counter lean of your head in corners really seems to scrub off the feeling of speed. Still, due to the wheelie in the beginning, it became a pretty popular video at work
