Down hill video

Spoke50 inspired me to find out how to post a video. Here's a video taken last fall. This is my friend Fred, age 70, leading me down a nice smooth road between Auburn and Lincoln, CA. We got up to about 40 mph near the bottom. It's a long video, so you can stop watching when the road gets bumpy if you want. However, a cat runs across the road at 5:20.

The video was shot with my little pocket digital camera, mounted on my handlebars, on the left side drop. I was surprised to get an 8 minute video on a 512 memory card.
