Video of my ride last week at the Tail of the Dragon

[Artful]

Just got back from the Gap for our sixth annual ride. Just a quick video I slapped together, nothing special, but definitely a lot of fun. If you live within a 12 hour drive of TN, totally worth the trip.

I was pissed, the actually fast runs weren't shot because the camera kept skipping into timer mode instead of video, so the only runs I got were a warm up run and a low speed reverse angle. Add a little Cash and a slap together edit and this is what you get.

Nice video.    That mirrored bubble shield looks killer.

Nice video.    That mirrored bubble shield looks killer.  

Thanks, it's a Fulmer V2 helmet with the matching shield. Absolutely useless after dark because of the super dark tint but great during the day. Obviously not as safe as a full face but it is nice not losing any peripheral vision. I wear it about half the time, my Scorpion full face the rest.

Nice "hands free" shot there....

The reverse angle run was actually in fairly heavy traffic, all the quicker parts were from hanging back a few turns and playing catch up. I was seriously bored from being behind a pair of cruisers that were taking their time and not letting anyone pass. I don't pass on that road so I figured I would have some fun. Rode half the downhill sections without touching a bar

Cool....reminds me of a lot of the mountain bikng videos I used to watch when I was into that. 

And it may not be fast for you, but that would be VERY fast for me.

That shield reminds of those creepy humans from the 1980 film "The Black Hole" only thing your missing is Maximilian.

And who is that covering Cash?
