Post by: Super Dave on June 11, 2004, 08:43:43 PM
Yeah, me...

Ok, this is the Cycle News "Bike of the Stars" (LOL) that I was on...really it's not mine...

Vintage racing can be a bit tight....

I think this is some on board camera stuff I did on the bike.

 Yeah sure, a bit tight. ESPECAILY WHN YOUR GOING DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS! I'm glad you know what you're doing, I'd have woke up in the ambulance.

Didn't you do that once Doug?  ::)

That is one helluva picture.  I'm on my Commodore 64 at work, so I can't see the video lap, but if it's like that, I'll leave the vitage racing to you serious guys.  ;)

I can't get the video to down load here.

Is there a crash on it?  

I know that I did the video during a race where the motor was really sour.  Lots of vintage guys don't realize how fast they can enter corners, and they think they can't brake while leaned over...I exploit that.  Wasn't going to help with the motor, but I guess it's looks cool in the video?

No crash but it is really dark.

Looks like the start of the race first lap up through the chicane.  Major differnce in speed among the bikes it looks like and a lot of riders not tucked in.
