Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

tucson ride video

I went down to Tucson for two weeks of riding with friends, family and some solo riding. I found my gopro mounted video to be horribly jarring but also climbed Mt. Lemmon and put the gopro on my sisters car which worked reasonably well. The video is 15min and mostly meant for family and friends; it starts with some short footage of my friends bird feeders but if you can tolerate that you might enjoy some of the views descending Mt. Lemmon and some of the stills. Mt Lemmon involves ~ 50mi (total) of riding and 6,000 feet of climbing.


the video was take down due to copyright issues with the songs I used

thanks. made it unlisted which should still work given the url posted.

I would encourage you to watch it in as high a resolution as you can deal with in terms of bandwidth.

I didn't watch the whole thing yet, but I really need to take my bike down to Tucson.

Glad I saw it before it was taken down. Thank you for sharing it.

What time of day and which day(s) of the week was your video shot? I was in Tucson for a few days of riding this time last year. But I didn't get to make it up to Mount Lemmon. I will definitely make a point of getting there next time though. It would be awesome if all day, everyday car traffic heading up to Mount Lemmon will be as light as what I'm seeing in your vid, the next time I'm there.

I think I got started around 10:30 AM or so and I took a long time to get up there so that was seemingly typical traffic - not very big.

If anyone wants to see the vid they can toss a PM and I'll give them an invite to my dropbox.
