Little fatbike video

Post by gairym »

After being inspired by InspiredRamblings WRT video I decided to make a little movie of my first ever snowy outing on my fatbike.

Nothing exciting but got me out of my funk regarding the (im)possibility of riding over the winter!

https://vimeo.com/79925663

Ironically there is another 10cm/4" of snow this morning and the video would have looked better had it been filmed today - such is life.....

Cheers, Gairy.

Very nice Gairy ... just be careful of the 'stalker' in the woods @ 58 seconds ;)

Ha ha, I noticed that too. I just assumed it was Gairy's support crew.

Nice work!

Good to see you posting again Gairy, i'm assuming you have now moved and life is starting to settle down a bit now.

Thanks guys, I hadn't noticed that runner until I saw the finished movie.

Ray, yeah we're moved but I'm saving the word 'settled' for after the time the new little guy sleeps through.

I've been reading and lurking round here again for a while but haven't had much to contribute, let's hope I'll be able to start getting out more from now on.

I registered with one a while back but never heard anything and so assumed it was dead???

It's defiantly not dead, but we've had admin problems, there is light at the end of the tunnel though.

Please re register and PM me the name you've used and your email address and I'll get you in :D

Ah, nice to know my little vid encouraged someone else to go make one!

I did make a bigger one of the Trans Cambrian, here: https://vimeo.com/78028506.

Its quite a bit longer and I can't remember whether I already posted a link to it here or not. I've actually got some extra footage and have been meaning to do another edit, possibly removing some of the weird talky bits, and cutting some of the longer bits down. Haven't quite got round to that though...!

Yeah, I watched that a while back, really enjoyed it.

I made another one a few days ago which you can see here:

Also, is that a '97 Lavadome?

I had one that I did up and then had stolen the week after I finished putting it together - bastardos!

Nice. I particularly like you giving eyes to the mountain in the background!

Nope, its a 1995 Kona Cinder Cone that Harry got from eBay for £200 and has hardly had to make any changes to. Close though :-)
