A very clear and steady video. Too bad about your winter weather though. I'll trade you. Today is about 45 F, can't see the snow on the mountains because the clouds are so low, 2 inches of rain so far today with more on the way. The Pacific here is gray and really cold looking. Oh, more bikers to wave at, go figure.

Hi, Mr. WW.
No way, I won't trade it ... ha ha ha.
Today, I tried to mount differenty way (and different view angles) and tested some riding.
Unfortunately, it came out worse than previous mounting.
However, there are some good seneries clips...
As I started late this afternoon, I got some low light situations while taking video.
And some good results (not clear looking but new camcorder takes some resonable video)
When I finished the conversion/uploading to youtube let me put links here.

Thanks for the your comments.

Here are the some testing clips...

Changed just vanishing point and angles.
Seems that more seneries on the video.

That's it, I'm moving South. Too much traffic in the GWN for me. Busy, is there a way to change the sound pick up to cut out the wind a little and maybe hear a little more engine noise ? Probably not but I would like it. That way I could turn up the volume, wear ear plugs and pretend I was riding. LOL.

Busy, go out during rush hour and show him what kind of traffic we deal with where people actually live. We can't have people moving here under false pretenses.

Good videos, but I miss your adventurous ride reports.

Hi, Mr. WW.

Hi, Mr. Moedad.
Here is the Los Angeles Traffic Video..
And, on the clip, there are Lane Splitting with Motorcycle.
Slow but efficient way to get home fast.. ha ha ha
(some dangers are always when lane splitting... so I do slow most of time)

How fast were you going during that lane splitting? It looks like 40-50mph but I'm sure it wasn't that fast.
You must have pissed off about 100 people in their cars on the way home wishing they could do that.

There you go. That's a lot more typical than canyon rides. Whew, with your cam mounted on the side of your bike, some of those cars on the left look awfully close! Good job, Busy.
