Hi, there.
Today I got a short trip to Rock Store in Malibu, California.
And got some pictures, that's all for today's report... :whistle:
Last weekend, when my bike had problem, one of the biker (his name is Mike) helped me.
And I borrowed his tools, and needed to give it him back.
I got an email that he rides bikes weekend at pch canyons, so I tried it to be there.
Unfortunately, I couldn't meet him today.
Ha, ha, but I got some pictures and share with you members.

Busy, I'm jealous of your rides and I live in Southern California. (I'm wondering what happens to the Midwest and Northeasters on this forum once the snow starts to fall...)

I gotta get a little more ambitious with my outings.

Looks like a fun trip.We don't have any mountains or tunnels like that. We've only got beaches, hurricanes, The Everglades (which you can't really ride through on a bike)... and beaches.

I think it will be extremely important (not to mention self-sacrificing and noble) that we post as many sunny day, photo-laden ride reports as humanly possible. Our brethren and sistren in the winter-bound states deserve it.

Hi, there.
I forgot one valuable information for the anyone who will visit here or there.
Internet connection is available at the Rock Store.
Cell phone signal is all the way 4-5.
I was surprised that through out the PCH and its canyon (all around the Mountain) have signal.
Didn't expected at all.

For the proof that I'm not lying.
I attached a image.
My mini-laptop computer and attached ATT Data Card.
If you see the Signal, shows 4 bars.

I have a plan that I would broadcast images(video) from the location where I am visiting in.
So, members can see the scenes at the time I'm there.
How do you guys think?
Is it possible to be done?
I don't know, later on I'll try when I got a chance.

Thanks
Good night!

Last winter our first snow was just before Thanksgiving..... Then there was snow on the ground EVERY DAY.

Seriously...... It didnt finally melt til March.

Then of course that sparked all that nasty flooding you may have heard about....

You guessed my $hitheel plan. Gotta do something to feel better about paying a half million for a shoebox.

Sign up on the site http://www.ustream.tv

It's free and it will do exactly what you are asking. I've broadcast many webcams on there at one time and I have had very little problem with it. It runs a flash app that loads on your computer in a browser window. If you stay connected, it will stay running and you have native access to your web camera.

You can post a link to it and anyone with a modern web browser can access it and watch live.

If you're looking for a free webcam broadcast program, that overlays text, images or other things, then check out one called ManyCam (http://www.manycam.com/). It's very good too, and works perfectly with ustream.tv broadcasts.

Thanks Patrick for the information.
I'll try both applications and practice them until I got confidence about it.
And then, I might try it with my bike trip.
Those are great and FREE to use, that's wow factor for me.
