Clydesdales/Athenas (200+ lb / 91+ kg) - Earlena's First Spring Ride

Well, here's a little short highlight from my wife's first ride of the year. Now that the weather has finally broken, she wanted to get that first one in today. Not a fast ride, but a nice easy, slow paced ride. :D

Great! So she rides a trike- I think I remember reading that somewhere else..is she crazylady- or is that someone else? Love the music/score but I may need some Dramamine if I watch it again...a little too live action for me :) b

That's the handlebar camera on my bike......

Now you know where the got the cinematography technique for Cloverfield ;)

By the way, yeah, that's Crazylady. :D

Cinematography reminds me of every home movie my father shot....:o

Did Crazy Lady Know she was being followed????

Yeah, I was riding right behind her ;)

Yeah, I was riding right behind her ;)

But she never turned around and waved :eek: ! I would not have been able to resist turning and smiling :) .

Especially when you learned Tom was wearing a kilt! :)

Yeah, I was riding right behind her ;)

I would guess that you normally ride past that 15MPH speed limit sign at something over that, ugly speed hump though I would guess the local car suspension shop does a good business. You must have been in the granny to go that slow.... Camera angle seems low, did you move the camera?

How many speeding tickets have you gotten there? lol

Yeah, I moved the camera. It is hung below the aerobar now to move it back toward the stem to eliminate as much as the wobble as I can. In the tip of the aerobar, the camera is a bit over a foot in front of the pivot point, vs. a few CM where it's at now.

Cool video Tom - what was the theme music?

Good quality for recording from a bike. I never messed around on 38 when I was in Lafayette. I loved riding the country roads south of Lafayette.

I like riding up through the Wildcat Highlands myself. :D

Good mix of flat and roll for the area, look at the elevation profile. ;)

Earlena's trike now has a handlebar cam as well. I set her up a mount for her minivideocamera
