Wow! What a movie. Glad I waited for the opportunity to sit down and enjoy it in one sitting. Had to smile at the opening salute to TWN. The ripples effect was cool, and only used that once which made it all the better. If you were an amateur, you might have abused a cool feature like that, to the detriment of the finished work of art.

As for 20 Mule Team Road, that's definitely on the list for next trip since it's a neat dirt road. And..... if there happened to be any curious rock formations worth photographing (and photographing again), I might just do that.

How did Sean like the scooter scene? That was nicely done.

Artist's Palette and the ride home were just beautiful. Missed both of those. We took I-15 which does have some scenic interest but not in the same league.

My plan for the next DV trip is to spend a whole lot less time in sleazy bars and more time seeing places like those. Well done, DC on a first class video of the weekend.

Uh oh, Shaun spells his name Sean? :unsure:

 
Mr. Carver,

You have raised the bar for all amateur motorcycle filmmakers.

That was absolutely fantastic! :clapping:

If my work schedule hadn't taken a bad bounce, I would have made that ride.

Thanks for taking me with you.

Carver, that was fucking great. Especially having been there (and I came through Trona on the way in as well) I thoroughly enjoyed it. The music, your smartassed captions, ...the whole mess.

I realize that it's a huge time-eater, but we're paying you good money here,

so I hope you'll continue to produce this stuff.

Yes, hoser, he spells it Sean, as Silver P and MM2 note. That's the only correct spelling, unless you're in a boy band or something. I'll be sure he sees your work. (He mentioned that had he not missed a downshift, you'd not have passed him that second time. ;) )

Great spending time with you, amigo.

Ok then, I'm going to edit the video, make a few tweaks and get his name correct. :blink:

LOL, there was no keeping that skooter in sight. Even a Hayabusa would have had trouble that day. He mentioned something about nitrous, fast peddling, and lower wind resistance? :lol:
 
Thanks for the vid Don, nicely done sir. It took me three visits to finally watch it all between my available time and toddler-like attention span. :hyper:

Thanks again to all those clicking shutters and actually writing words to describe to trip. :thumbsupsmileyanim:
