Title: Ride Video from Alberta, Canada
Post by: madjak30 on August 20, 2011, 01:23:08 PM
Here is a video that I made of a ride from last weekend...I'm still learning/playing with my editting software, so it isn't as good as I would like...

Hope you enjoy it...

So, that place a bike rider's lunch spot, eh? Good thing you got there early before the Masses arrived.

Man, that tire is so toast - and your front is history as well. Hope you changed them both.

Yeah, we didn't even know it was a bike stop...we just stumbled upon it when we came to the end of the pavement and didn't want to ride gravel...as for the tires...well I haven't changed them yet (but I did order new Michelins for both ends), but I haven't ridden it since either...the tires should arrive next week while I'm out on a road trip, so hopefully I will get them mounted and balanced on Friday so that I can ride on Sunday (wifey's 40th on Saturday...should be a good party!!)

By the time I get to ride again, I will be well into withdrawls... :icon_mrgreen:
