OK, so I like this AC/DC song a whole lot but I need fast footage to apply it to a video. I somehow talk Gina and BoyLd into doing intervals so that I can get some good footage hahaha! Hey, they did it and I didn't twist any arms hahaha! I'm thinking they will both be sleeping like babies tonight! Gina and BoyLd were pumping pretty good, 21-23 mph. Gina is dead tired but I got my video bwahahaha!

Inquiring minds want to know, how do you keep the camera so steady? I would have crashed multiple times.

Riding with one hand! I have a clip where the focus is on Gina's butt. Viewed it when we got home. Gina said I was a dirty old man:eek: I was just trying to keep up with one hand and trying to aim the camera. I have a mount for the HB's but then I can't pan the camera where I like.

I put the mount on Gina's HB's today, last few miles for some footage of me on the bike at a fast pace. That didn't last long after a dog attacked us and I got into a big argument with the owner.

I can do 24 mph with one hand. Above that, I get dropped. Pretty much the reason my buds on bents drop me when I'm trying to record them. I can with the HB mount but then I'd have to stop here and there to mount and dismount. Oh well, it's a good workout.:D

BTW, dude Boyd in the video is over 60, had heart surgery and one eye (glass eye). Makes me laugh when friends give me excuses of why they can't ride.:p

Gave up smoking and drinking to stay alive and doing a good job of it !But I sure dont know how he does 70 mile rides in them cord shorts!:eek::roflmao2:

Make's perfect sense to me..... That's exactly where I'd focus the camera if I could talk my wife into riding.
