Hoping to test the GoPro mounts / video quality in a few locations. Anyone is welcome. Same old Gate Gas station on Rocky River and 485 meeting spot during the warmer part of the day.

I'm in for Thursday. KK and I might join you Saturday, but we may go mountain biking instead. Not sure yet.

 

[bmart]

Cool!

 

[bmart]

Bueller. All times work for you guys? I'm thinking 1-3:30 timeframe both days.

 

[JustAnotherSquid]

1:00 Thursday at the Gate gas station sounds good to me!

 

[bmart]

Sounds good. I'll be there at 1 tomorrow.

You know the Winter Blues are setting in when you're getting excited about an LFR in sixty degree weather.

My limit when I rode in MA was 18F with heated gear. Here, it is much higher. First world problems, right? I'll still have a blast!

 

[JustAnotherSquid]

Good ride! Thanks for leading. I have about two hours of footage and it's all of you haha. I don't have a way to edit it (yet) but I can throw the files onto an FTP server and then you can grab them and decide if there's anything you want to save.

 

[JustAnotherSquid]

Ok new plan. I skimmed the footage and 99.7% of it is phenomenally boring. The other 0.3% is only kinda boring. I'll see if I can extract a video with a few of the least uninteresting minutes and upload it to YouTube.

This GoPro is calling out for a Mountain Run. Or even better, a track day.

 

[JustAnotherSquid]

Alright, here's two and a half minutes that were not bad. The raw video was pretty clear, but YouTube has muddied it up quite a bit. I'll have to figure that one out.

BTW, please note that my speedometer is calibrated for km/h.

Nice way to spend a few hours not in front of a screen. Not fast. Not hot out. No pics. My videos are as boring as I am. No need to post any of yours for me. Zzzzzz

Nice. That bike sounds great. Mine have too much wind noise. I may need to try a behind the screen mount...but then I saw how yours distorted the video. Hmmm

 

[bmart]

That sun was brutal today. May consider an earlier departure on Saturday by an hour if it doesn't negatively affect the guys I asked.

I thought the exact same thing...

 

[JustAnotherSquid]

KK and I are in for Saturday!

Excellent. Stay tuned for start at noon or 1.

 

[bmart]

Let's go with 12:15. See you two there!

This is what it's like living with a crazy person... I found this in the family room this morning!

 

[bmart]

Wow..he did lose a few pounds. See you guys in a while!
