Re: Livermore pics
How do you like your Gopro camera? I have read reviews and they are a love/hate thing. I understand they had some early firmware issues and may still be quirky to use. You video looked good so it seems to capture and record well.

Re: Livermore pics
For me, it's kind of a fun toy. I almost bought a lesser model but this one was given to me as a gift. I don't think I would spend $400 on it, only because I'm cheap. But it certainly has a lot of capabilities. I don't know how many riding videos I can take of myself before I get bored stiff of it. You guys might already be bored. Too bad, I will keep posting moresteveloomis wrote:How do you like your Gopro camera? I have read reviews and they are a love/hate thing.

Mine has worked nearly flawlessly. When I took it out of the box it had to be updated immediately before using it. Kind of stupid for a $400 miniature device. It locked up once when I was screwing around with it on the computer. I have read that a lot of people have had problems with them locking up. Speaking of which my PC needs a reboot. To be continued.

Re: Livermore pics
This was long ago. Parents had friends who moved to a place out on Mines Rd. in the 50's. There were a series a steep bumps on Greenville Rd, more like hills, 7 in a row. Not sure if they were named after the 7 Bargmann sisters or the bumps. Believe they were leveled in the means of saftey in the 60's.

Re: Livermore pics
Thanks for the info on the GoPro. Waiting on more info when you get your Windoz restarted again. Go Mac, never go back, except to program a Zeel.....

Re: Livermore pics
Cool movie!! I'd be happy as hell with a "Polished Turd" like that. She sounds like she's running pretty good and you can't look at em' when your riding anyways! I'd rather have a good runner than a all show and no go trailer queen (course show bike that hauls ass would be best ). I sold Framemaker a part on Ebay a couple weeks ago, so it was cool seeing him at the end. I never had any communications with him ever, but I seen his forkless on some other sites. So when he bought my part I recognized the user name, exchanged a couple emails, etc.. Anyway, I thought it was cool, kinda makes the world seem a little smaller. Far as the movies yea, getting interesting footage seems to be the challenge. I want to put the camera on get out there pin the throttle, high speeds, wheelies, yea! Then reality sets in, I got a speeding ticket 53 in a 35 a few years ago. Our insurance went up about 50% for the next 2 years (wife weren't too happy ). Here in VT a wheelie could get your license suspended. I think you got it, a little "spirited riding" and some nice scenery. I'm looking forward to Spring and sharing a few more riding adventures, if don't nobody like em' they ain't gotta watch em'...

Re: Livermore pics
[quote="kpke"]Mr. Ward, thanks for the compliment dood. Since you are not coming to California to ride maybe I should go to Georgia to hook up on your turf (asphalt) for a ride.
Come on! GA has some nice twisties within 70-120 miles of my house. You now have a standing invitation and a place to stay. You need to also plan on coming to the annual Deal's Gap 2 stroke meet one of these years too. Let's make some smoke!!

Re: Livermore pics
Sorry about that. I thought the other ones were private also but I guess not. This sh!t be too technical for me sometimes.
I don't think I can fix it while I am here at work so we will have to wait in suspense until I get home this afternoon.
Work always gets in the way of the fun stuff

Re: Livermore pics
It was about 70 F here today.
I went up Mines Road (and back ) with the gopro mounted up.
On the ride back I turned it on. I wear the remote on my forearm so I can easily turn it off and on when I choose to.
I just watched reddogs video and decided I would edit my movie and post it up. His stroker kicks a** I want one
I was a super star stud rider today (for me ) and you guys would have said so when you watched my movie.
So I connected to the PC and all I see are 10 jpeg files. WTF
Took me a while but I remember the first time I pushed the button on the remote on I hit the not red button instead of the red button. No biggy. Right after that I hit the red button. Recording my bada** movie now, right?
Why do they have to put more than one F'ING button on these things? It is far too complex for people like me.
The button I pushed changed it to camera mode so each time I pressed the red button I was taking a photo and not starting and stopping the video. Stupid F'ing camera
GD FKN SOB
Maybe next weekend
Edit
Here is my whole video

Re: Livermore pics
Too bad about your video Ken. I was excited to watch it since I rode up to the Junction on Saturday with a friend and recorded my return route with a borrowed GoPro. However I rode up there on my small bike, the MB5. I did have some issues using the camera as well. Ended up having to delete my recordings of the ride up the hill (but that's ok because I was stuck behind a slow truck).
You can check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yb5mXowYSPM" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; (39 minutes)
It came out pretty cool, mounted the camera next to my headlight. Since I only had the basic mount, the video format had to be vertical.
