Well, I ride a Worksman Port-O-Trike around town, which is a little faster than most larger adult trikes. I may have been going 12-13 mph. I don't have a computer on that bike, so I'm just guessing at the speed.

This another mountain bike video we did long time ago. My girlfriend was leading the charge.
Another cool mountain bike video
That's some nice singletrack you've got there! It reminds me of our Salmon Falls trail here in NorCal. Back in the good old days when I had a properly fitting mtb I used to ride that trail often.
I really should get another mtb, especially now that I've got a decent helmet camera.
I enjoyed this descent down Monitor Pass too. Turn up the sound and you will hear how much I enjoyed it. :D

Wow! Beautiful roads and sights. I want to take my bike there! It's interesting that your Garmin goes crazy: I saw the speed go over 50 mph, but you wrote down your top speed as 43.8?
Thank you. :) I noticed the same thing with the Garmin. I don't understand why it happened in a wide open area with no trees to interfere with the satellite signal. Normally I get that when I ride through heavily forested areas. On my "Slug Gulch Road climb 9-11-11" video, the speed reading dropped down to 0 as I accelerated into a switchback.
I love the reactions I get when I ride an adult trike at a good clip! :D Here's a pedestrian at a bus stop cheering me on as I approach: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqcUIvuy3KA
OK, got home from vacation and fired up the external drive. Where's that video? Had to recreate it! :rolleyes:
I hope this was worth the wait ;)

The best part is about 45-55 seconds in.
I like that camera angle, especially with the spinning wheel. I also like the fact that it's raw footage. Most music on cycling videos is hit or miss. I end up muting more often than not. IMHO raw is the best because you can hear the gear shifting, other bike sounds, nature sounds, and people talking (and for climbing videos, the effort the rider is putting into the climb ;)).
:44 is what happens to me on a typical ride. :D Was that a "victory salute" he did at :47? If so, I hope he wasn't doing it to be a jerk.
Oh, okay. :) I wondered what that was all about. Boo on the close passer! :mad: That's why we may get a 3-foot law here in California.
We have a 3 foot law, but you can see what good that does when the drivers don't know or don't care.
