I’m sorry, but this camera thing is just way too much fun.
Here was my commute tonight:
Part 1: DC PA Ave NW median lane, up the MBT, through NE DC to the Anacostia Trib trails. http://www.vimeo.com/20540043
Part 2: Trails to Greenbelt http://www.vimeo.com/20541071
Just a beautiful night for riding and a great sunset. I’m impressed that the camera does pretty good even in low light.
That was interesting — I had read all about the new bike lanes on PA Ave, but I don’t get over to that side of town very often, so thanks for the action shot!
A few years ago, some guy posted videos of the entire Mt. Vernon Trail on YouTube, split into two parts. They’re interesting but the image quality isn’t so great. He sped up the footage so the length of the videos would be manageable. Maybe you could film an updated HD version. That would be neat.
I’d be happy to, on weekends. In fact I’d be open to other suggestions for weekend video rides. However, I’m not familiar with other trail systems than the ones I take to work, so I’d appreciate really specific advice on start and endpoints, and other suggestions for how best to record a route. Also happy to collaborate on a ride, so that “regulars” on particular routes could narrate certain sections or add caption comments, or otherwise “lead the way” so to speak.
