  1. Here's some of the video I shot on the San Juan Trail this past Sunday.

    Pretty cool. Your little camera did a relatively good job of picking up
    the details on some of the trail. What are you using?

    Nice job -- trail looks a bit rutted out right now, but otherwise same ol'
    SJT.

    It's a HelmetCamera.Com bulletcam connected to a Canon MiniDV. It's the 400
    resolution unit, so it does a halfway decent job. I tried one of those
    mounts for the miniDV, but it's too much weight on my head. This is about 9
    oz. as opposed to four pounds. I also filter the frames to get more
    brightness and contrast.

    I'd say that most of the switchbacks (which I didn't show) are in desparate
    need of maintenance. I had to dismount for a good number of them because
    one tire would get stuck in a rut and propel me off. Keep in mind that it
    poured the day before which I am sure did not help the trails. There's also
    a spot where one of the railroad ties has washed down the mountain and the
    trail is eroding fast.

    I don't know who is responsible for maintenance there, but you should give
    them this info so they can schedule a maintenance day.

    It's almost a lost cause. Those ruts (I walk many of them too) are a by
    product of uncaring shuttle-monkey dill-weeds.

    There's Florida's silver lining!

    I like the video, but don't have the same musical taste.

    That's the beauty of the volume control. I understand. I try to mix it up
    from time to time. I'm just caught on that one tune right now.

    My mistake. I got this video confused with the JEM video. Your musical
    taste is fine. I have that other song in my mind....

    I pity you. Mike has tried on several occasions to inflict that type of
    damage on me, but much to his dismay I am immune- I never watched much
    TV as a kid, and completely missed a huge chunk of pop culture as a
    result. Thankfully.

  13. No offense, but that was really boring.

    So what video have YOU posted lately, hotshot?!?

  15. I don't make videos--just [censored] on them ;-)

    Maybe the trail was really exciting and technical, but all I saw was 5
    minutes of smooth 1-t.

    The videos at http://www.pedalmasher.com/html/texas.html are more to me
    likin', for reference.

    But, you can tell me I won't tell anyone else, what happened to Mike as a
    kid?

    The usual. Too much bad TV was a major factor, I think.

    To each his own, TP.

    I never said I was an exciting person, just excited. I'm also slow, but I
    get where I'm going and have a good time doing it 🙂.

    Ride-A-Lot,

    Don't take it personal. He's just repeating what he heard last night.
