April 28th ride on KY165.
This was my 3rd time ever on this road, and the other 2 were in the other direction.
I tried to set a good pace, and keep it sorta safe.

I still need to put a background track on it.

video editing comments?
background music comments?
riding skills/technique comments?

Thanks
.

not bad, but i'd say do a normal ride along that part of the road to make sure theres no debris in the turns etc. then go back and start over and let that Sh*t rip !!! not to be mean but it seemed like u were going kinda slow but the rpm's were high. what gear were u in most of the time and how fast were u going?? But yea always keep it safe...

Yeah, good vid. Work on keeping a constant line though. Look at an imaginary line through a curve and try to keep on it best you can.
and +1 on that car in the beginning. I guess they prefer the whole road instead of just half.

FUZE:

That road is "near" the top of Kentucky.
Google map: Mt Olivet, KY
Then Google map: 45424

It is even more flat and more boring where I live.
I have to take a day, and ride for a few hours to get to a road worth leaning on.
Prob not as bad as the middle of Nebraska...

06CBRF4i :
2nd and 3rd gear.
55 - 85+mph
My vid camera was zoomed out as far as it would go, and it is as far back on the tank as I can put...and still ride.
It just doesnt seem to give the same sense of speed as we thought we were going during the ride.
Maybe a wide angle adaptor, but Im am cheap and lazy, and havent ordered it yet.

havent watched the vid yet, Im on a verizon card currently, too slow to watch vids. but, I ride 165 like every 2-3 weekends-love it. fwiw, that is about the best road in these parts. we have to ride a couple of hours just to get to it. I live in Louisville.

What, no attacking birds or dogs this time?...lol The closest you came was the animal (dog?) that scurried off the road @ 3:47.

Man, you love the rpms, huh?!

My advice would be to look through the curves as far as possible. You seemed to be doing a lot of mid-corner corrections in some of the turns. This can be caused by entering the turn too early, or not looking far enough ahead to your exit point.
Don't let people knock you about your revs either... everyone should know that's where the power is! Pretty good vid, although it does need some background music. I would suggest some Tool or something like that. Maybe next time let some of your buddies ride ahead so there's something else to look at in the frame besides grain silos (plus it probably will give a better guage of how fast you're going).
