I'm probably hoping it was me...but I was lazyily viewing a bunch of video clips on the Internet, filmed by our city on promoting expansion of cycling lanes and routes.

Another freakish moment. I thought I saw myself and my partner on camera....it was an aerial shoot along a cycling greenway route from above..done in 2006... though filming must have been done in 2005 because it looks sunny and warm.

Ghosts of the past..it is in area where we have cycled. :confused:

Already have replayed that video segment over and over.. to see those fleeting images. No, we wouldn't have been aware of the film shoot.

And for inexplicable reasons, just seeing this makes my heart catch abit: My dearie and I actually have very few photos of us riding together, amongst the thousands of other digital photos we have. Usually we are taking photos of one another on bike. And usually we are riding...just the 2 of us, instead of frequent group rides.

I have had to ask a sibling to take photos of us riding together.

This actually requires Realplayer software. Your computer may be configured already.

I'm the cyclist within first 5 min. of footage...am wearing a white, long sleeved shirt and cycling on a hybrid, more upright bike with 1 pannier. We're cycling on a sunny summer-like day on a road bike route --not in the rain.
yea, I used to look more geeky..I wasn't wearing cycling jerseys back then. He is cycling behind me, also more upright on bike. He just confirmed that it is us, after all.

At least one can see how much cyclists in Vancouver do cycle in the rain at start of clip.
