  3. Now I am glad I canceled the ride for that weekend. I am hoping the traffic will die down as well when I head out near the end of this month as well. Some awesome photos. Thanks for the preview of what is to come! Even in the rain that Black Canyon ride looked incredible and now I am will have to add the Cotechetopa Canyon to yet another ride next time I am going through there. I wasn't sure I was going to like the perspective of looking at the back of your knee but it turned out pretty nice once you got moving and the shaking was hardly a distraction to me. Great job of making my wait until the end of the month even worse. :goofy:
  4. Totally awesome! I love the way that VFR sounds and always appreciate a die hard enthusiast! :cheerleader: So when are you coming to our next big VFR meet? :musik20:
  5. Sounds like you got the 2nd generation. My ContourHD renders HD into a .mov file (Apple format) and it's a PIA to convert to an AVI format and the quality loss is quite noticeable. The Contour has a new firmware update that allows you to set the dB level of the mic which might cut down on the wind noise but I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. You can also vary some other settings to alter color balance and lighting as well. And you are definitely right about being easy to use. That's one of the many reasons I chose it over other models out there. You should check this site out if you want some good reviews on helmet cams: Helmet Cam Central Again, once I get my video editing software I plan on getting some of the footage from the Summer Summit meet up but there is not point right now if all you get is wind noise for a sound track and a poor quality conversion from MOV to AVI. :dry: Seeing your videos though definitely gives me hopes of what the results will be. :fing02:
  6. Awesome pic. I spent a good 6 months up in that area. The only thing I left behind there were tread marks in my hasty departure. :laughing6-hehe:
  7. Did you get the 1st or 2nd generation of the ContourHD cam? I have the first one and it's pretty sweet. What quality were you recording at? I just leave mine on the highest setting but the 60fps doesn't work well for editing. Of course all I have is crappy free ware editing software which I hope to fix here pretty soon. The microphone sucks as all I get is wind noise. There is a way to cut that out but wrapping the camera in Styrofoam seems a big waste of time if it is going to be on a helmet. Regardless, both the videos were cool. I am so itching to get another shot at Colorado!

  12. I am attempting to get ZiaVFR to follow me through southern CO sometime here in the next few weeks and this story with those pics are killing me! Great to hear you are loving the Veefalo though and I love the poetic justice ending for the idiot cager. :fing02:
  13. Awesome riding partner and don't be fooled by his cool demeanor...he knows how to ride.

    Post crash trauma

    Even though the picture is a couple of years old it some how fits nicely with our current economy. :angry:
  15. I've watched the Long Way Around, The Race to Dakar, and the Long Way Down. I'll give props to any man who rides in the Dakar race for I forget how many kilometers with a broken right hand and a dislocated left thumb at the same time. :fing02:

    Is that for real or some stuffed animal? How the heck did you get him onto your glove? Pretty cool pictures. :fing02:

    This reminds me of something a poveratzi would do. :biggrin:
  20. Yep...replacing the filter is pretty easy. Just make sure you don't bend the rim when inserting/removing the pump assembly and very carefully torque down the bolts as the studs break very easily. Don't ask me how I know all that. :unsure:
