Bikes: confidential infromation that I don't even share with my wife

N + 1 Boomer Version tops 5,000!

The animated movie I made two years ago to help explain the N + 1 equation through the eyes of Boomers has passed the 5,000 views mark. The movie was my first attempt at movie making. Over past two years I think I have got a little better at movie making, but I've still got a long way to go before any "blockbusters" are produced. I can only hope that the movie provided at least a nugget of helpful information to your quest for N+1.

I make the animated movies to invite my riding buddies out to ride. I like this one from a while ago:

I have also used the movies to challenge and chide myself to accomplish something on the bike that I think impossible:

and one to call out myself and buddies, http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6428...fu-workout-421

I even made movies to get over this year's disaster of a Cyclocross season, which have some nasty words in them that embarrassed my wife

and my attempt at the healing process after utter failure: http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/12706213/dfl-redemption

This all makes me wonder about a Bike Forums 50+ movie, hmm...., a lot of ideas come mind. I'll ponder the script the next time I'm on the rollers for 1.5 hrs with nothing else to do but watch the stupid TV shows my wife has on while she gets on, off, on, off the elliptical machine during our "together time".
