Short morning ride, with video action and music!

[Bbqjoe]

My two Jacks and the sausage have to have their run in the morning.
If I should miss it for some reason, they lose their marbles and go stir crazy.
I got my bike all put back together today after my post summer refurb, and I needed to take it for a test drive. Well, every ride's a test drive, right?

I also thought it would be a perfect opportunity to check out my new gopro knock off.
After viewing todays results, I have determined two things with the gopro, besides the fact it takes great video.

First, the mic sucks, but these things aren't really for sound, are they?
Second, I need to record at a higher FPS.

The third thing, that just blows my mind, is who would have ever thought
that you could get 6 hours of video on something smaller than a penny?

I finally got tired of using a windows computer that decides it needs to do a bunch of stuff before it will let me decide what I need it to do.

I went to the other side.
I'm still getting used to this macbook, as well as all new video programming and editing programs available.
This is my first go at a whole bunch of new things, so bear with it, it will only get better!

One last note, my roads are usually as smooth as a racetrack, but the last three weeks of rain has killed them, and is preventing me from doing any grading.

Enjoy the video, and if not, then please enjoy the music.

Great music! My view is, it should not drown out the ambient noises or be the only sound on a video.

I'm already one minute in and I am greatly amused... those dogs are friggin' hilarious.

Beautiful country. It looks like if you went down the road some more youll get to my place. But I know your in a different county cause the guy that maintains our roads couldn't butter bread.

Which camera is that? I'm wanting to get one. Picked up an open box one at wally world and returned it immediately. Cheap.

This is the one I bought.
It comes with a truckload of different mounts.

Cool Video Joe. The Camera is at a perfect angle. Not pointing too High or too Low.
good Music choice, and I too like some actual vid noise besides the Music.
Next time I want to see the Dogs chasing the Moo Cows.

You heard my bike between songs.
That's all you'd hear, unless I go walking around and chatting.

The engine note was muffled. But you can try to modify the camera case to let in more sound--buy an extra one and drill a hole over the mic and cover the hole with gauze or something to make it as dust-tight as possible.

I'm not sure how fast you're going--it's deceiving, but I'm amazed those dogs can keep up. If you slow down a bit, they zoom past you.

They're getting a good work out and loving it.
