Nice, thanks for sharing.

There's still video coming when BigRed develops the film.

Nice pic's of the ridley, did you see that guy that came over to her at the gas station. She said that happens all the time.. it's a guy magnet as she says.

**HwyRider** · 07-12-2014, 09:56 PM

A GPS file of the ride that can be uploaded to other GPS devices.

It's the shiny spoked wheels and the white wall tires. I had the same thing happen with my last bike. It was always nice getting compliments but the upkeep is a pain in the but.

Yesterday was a great day. Rt 8A is fantastic. I may have to get back out there again at some point. I also want to check out that hairpin turn on Rt 2.

I have several hours of video clips from the ride. It will take me some time to go through all of it and upload it. I will let you know when it's up.

ctrider · 07-13-2014, 02:58 PM

Any time you want to head back up to Rt2 let me know.

**HwyRider** · 07-13-2014, 07:06 PM

Count me in.

**BigRed** · 07-14-2014, 07:12 AM

Here is one of the videos from the ride. Unfortunately the quality isn't great because for some reason when I upload the video to YouTube it changes picture quality from 720p to 480p. Oh, well.

Loafer · 07-14-2014, 07:30 AM

Very nice New England road, the scenery is very much like I have seen
throughout the area. Nice quiet roads rural homes and small towns.
Thanks for sharing.

**BigRed** · 07-14-2014, 07:38 AM

I think I will have to try and find a way to mount the camera onto my helmet. There were some amazing views along the way but unfortunately they were all on both sides of the road so the camera didn't capture them.

**HwyRider** · 07-14-2014, 07:48 AM

I had the same problem trying to capture the last time that I recorded. That's why I'm looking for something that will let the camera mounted up on the fairing.

For youtube to let you upload at 720 you need a premium account.

I have a onedrive account that I can put the video on. Not sure how it would work for viewing but I can put whatever size file I want up there.

ctrider · 07-14-2014, 07:49 AM

Great job Martin. We should plan a fall foliage run though the same area. Nothing like New England in the late fall.

id-man · 07-14-2014, 07:57 AM

Yep it looks like there was room at that table to squeeze one more and that chicken sure looks good...sorry I missed it. It would have been nice to meet you all and see that Ridley in person - what a cool looking bike, I'd never heard of it before, now I wish I could check it out. I looked online and there are some for sale commanding what seemed to be pretty tall prices, I'd say they're holding their value well in spite of (or because of) being defunct. Instant classics? Hey maybe we'll see them come back like Indian keeps doing!

**HwyRider** · 07-14-2014, 08:07 AM

Martin - Do you have a dropbox or other type of online storage that you can upload the 720 video to so that it can be downloaded? I'd like to play around with it on onedrive and see if it can be embedded from there. Send me an email if you can C50T@icloud.com
