I have no problem using my first name. I think you did in some of the posts anyways. That was a cool video and loved the music. I think the helmet mounting of the cam is very cool. Next time you'll need to get a video of 219 and the twisties. I love riding that area.

200 miles per week. Once you get the RDL on there you'll bump that up a bit.

Yes, you are correct. I had two versions of that post and posted the one with names.

Considering that I had my C50 for 3 years and only did about 1000 miles, this is huge for me. And yes, if the RDL works out the way I hope it will, I expect to put on a lot more miles next year.

Here is a link to Jeff Beck's freew ay jam one of my favorite songs for cruising. Maybe you can use it.

You could have done the rides on the C50 but your ass would not have gone to heaven and the vibration would have killed your arms on the longer rides.

Vibration was the main reason why I didn't ride much. I absolutely hated riding the highway on that bike.

Got 2 hours and 25 minutes of video before the battery died in the camera. Stitched it back together and will post a link to the file in case you guys want it. It is about 14.5 GB in size and hasn't been edited with audio. It's just the raw video of the ride. Made it almost to Great Barrington on the video. I have a second smaller video leaving from PJ's General Store that will fill in the blanks but it is coming back. Will also post a link to that video after I join it back together. It will be smaller than the first.

Well the file is 20 gb in size. One drive only lets me post a max of 10 gb per file. Will have to do some work to get this uploaded.

I'm sticking the video on USB flash drives. I'll give you guys a copy on the next ride.

I can upload 10 gb at a time. The 2 videos are 30 gb total. I'm going to stick them on thumb drives so that during the winter when all that snow is around you you'll be able to watch yourself riding.
