A friend of mine just moved back to town after 20ish years. On Saturday we duplicated a short ride out to a nearby lake that we often did while here in college. I think we last did it in 1982. We've changed a bit since then. lol
(Pick of us back then in the "Everyone post a picture of their FIRST scoot(s)" thread)
These days we make quite an odd riding pair. My buddy on a Honda 750 and me on a Triton Scooter! had a blast.

Excellent video ... you proved that it's all about the ride ... not the bike !

A collage is a grouping of pictures scattered indiscriminately on the same background. But He didn't say "collage", he said "college" which is a institution for higher education. If you had gone to one you might have caught that little subtlety. LOL
And after watching the video, I disagree with the previous poster who said it was "all about the ride". Apparently it was all about the video. Leap frogging every half mile to take turns shooting videos of each other going over the same stretch of road. For me that would take all the fun out of the ride. I just want to keep riding, not stopping every mile or so, especially on a nice road like that. Stopping and starting is too much like my commute into work. And that sucks all the fun out of it.
Just one observation. I'm sure other will disagree with me.

Part 2 - I just noticed WorldTraveler100's avatar. So it makes sense that it would be "The Video". And he probably enjoyed it immensely. Since I don't have talents in those areas, I prefer just riding.

Well that is fine but I'm guessing you are not a shooter or editor so you couldn't tell that it was all shot in 2 stops. just different perspectives. The driving shots were just the camera hanging around my neck. The point was not to get anywhere or rack up a lot of miles to impress anyone. It was to have fun, swap stories and re-live all those past rides as well. Anyway, about 15 min of shooting out of 2 hours riding. Well worth the memories we can look back at 20 years from now.  btw i corrected a typo that wf1761 pointed out. So he did not have i wrong i did. |

Great shots. What type of camera? Hey thanks. In my day job i use a Sony EX1 but this was with a fun little Canon G9. Great still camera but also shoots close to High Definition video. lets me re-frame shotes in edit. I just hang it on a strap around my neck and go! ;D |
