  1. Last weekend, I went up to Idyllwild, CA located in the San Jacinto Mountains between Hemet and Palm
    Desert. The weather was nice and sunny with spring in the air with lots of greenery and wild
    flowers. The riding was great with quite a few miles of singletrack. While the sunny conditions made
    for wonderfull riding, it also caused issues with my lipstick camera as it does not perform well in
    rapidly changing like you find while dodging trees on singletrack on a sunny day. I did however
    manage to get enough footage to get a video together.

    You can check out the video here: mountainbikebill.comIdyllwild MAR03.mpg

    I also have maps, pictures, and a trail description on the website in the SOCAL trails section.

    Awesome! I wish I hadn't been so busy last weekend. Maybe I'll head out there tomorrow.

    Second that, these damn videos are all I have until the trails dry out. Snow i can handle but the
    mud and clay makes the trails a mess for at least a week

    It is off of the Tomb Raider soundtrack. It is by Delerium (featuring Aude) and the track is called
    Terra Firma (Lara's Mix)

  6. There is a problem with the video I uploaded. It works fine on my XP box with Media Player 9 that I
    encoded on, but it gets jerky around the 1:30 to 1:50 timeframe on my Win2K machine with Media
    Player 9. It also gets jerky while on my Win98 SE machine with Media Player 7.

    If any of you have seen the video and did not have a problem with it could you let me know what OS
    and player you are using. Trying to figure this out while I reencode the video.

    Tell them that all they have to do is keep hitting the XBOX REALLY hard while trying to insert a
    network cable where the CD would normally go :-)

  11. If you have a CD burner and Nero, Nero has a free downloadable VCD plugin that will convert MPG's to
    SVCD that will pay on newer DVD's. Do not look for DVD quality playbacks.

    about that?

    yeah I know how to do it for my DVD/VCD/MP3 player, but I'm not aware of the XBOX being able to play
    VCD discs.

    For PC or VCD burns I use Easy CD Creator Plat 5 which has a built in VCD utility.

    I have a mo-better-gooder version of the video uploaded now that should not cause the problems with
    some OS/players.
