OK, Google finally 'approved' my video. It's complete with George Thorogood providing the overtune with rolling titles and credits! :rolleyes:

Be advised that the volume is rather low and make sure you hit the little arrow button on the lower right of the screen and select 'original size'. This is a 20 MB, 5:17 video. Now, it loaded PDQ for me and played smoothly through the 'credits'. Let me know how it loads and plays for you.

Thanks!

-P2K ;) :D

Nice ride. Good tunes. Great video. Remind me not to ever document my own cornering "skills" for all to see. Were you solo or did you take the imaginary Mrs. TWN with you? No wonder you like your intercom so well. You only have to listen to music. :D

One of these days TWN, you need to bring that camera of yours up north and we'll go run Hwy49 and surrounding areas. :D

BTW the video loads fine. Still waiting for the odometer and rpm gauges. ;)

 
Solo. The Nutress had to schlep some fixin's up in the cage... Pumpkin pie and potato casseroles don't do well in the side cases!

As for your cornering abilities on tape... Wait'l WFO. I'm gonna have the goods on all of youz! Heh, heh. I'll have the vids and FNG will have 8 x 10 glossies of the whole bloody affair! ;)

Oh, please, please, purty please?! Hwy 49! :dribble: :dribble: :dribble:

I tried to lower it to catch the gauges but then you can't see most of the road... Maybe if I can get it higher and back more... I'll have to mess with that, thanks!

 
Nice video - I like George but I like the turbine whine faintly audible in the background mo better!

 
TWN-Excellent video! I like it!! Don't you love how some folks are compelled to pull out in front of you, only to slow you down? Just like the Cadillac driver. I doubt, given the rate at which you were moving, that there was any traffic behind you before reaching him at the intersection. You think he could have waited 'till you passed, and then pulled out...NOOOO...let's pull out in front of the FJR and slow his ass down too! And I thought I was the only jack-ass magnet.

How was your camera mounted? I would like to capture some video too. Any suggestions? Again, thanks for the entertainment!!

 
TWN, cool video and nice production...I especially liked the credits at the end. When can we expect "Over the River and Thru the Woods II?

Boo! Hiss! for the Caddy cager...BTDT.

 
Here's my set-up:

And you are correct. No one behind me when the Caddy pulled out. Woods II? Not likely 'til next year, but there will be more vids when the coolness factor of the road/scenery warrants it.
