Post a video of you while cycling

[tytbody]

I did this MTB video in a local trail with some friends several years ago. If you have any videos let's see them

OMG. Girl you are very very brave. I just don't have any words to say about such a ride. Amazing what you all do with 2 wheels.

I try to find a new climb every week. Now I've just about covered all of El Dorado and Placer counties, but I'll dig a little deeper and see if I can find a new road for this weekend.

The descent was bumpy in places, with some blind corners, so I couldn't go as fast as I wanted to. It was somewhat fun.

I also really like exploring new climbs But I've done all the major climbs around here several times.

Sweet, and I've a sister in San Diego that I haven't seen in many years Personally I would prefer to climb it on the bike as well...

Great when you come and visit I'll take you to ATT

Thank you. Everybody can do it with a little practice

WOW! EEK! I can't imagine doing that. The edge drops scare me. Michigan is flat compared to this. You are a brave lady

It took me a long time before I could stop looking at the sides of the cliff on rides like this The video looks worst than it is anyways

While watching the video I noted that there seemed to be a good amount of growth between the trail and actual edge - I would find that comforting We certainly don't have trails with THIS kind of exposure in central Indiana, but am getting better at focusing on the trail itself and ignoring what isn't the trail.

At some point are you able to enjoy the scenery and still focus on the trail/obstacles? I assume the answer is yes

HOW can you if you might hit a rock? or even a branch.. ?????

You do get better at looking around, but still need to keep the focus on the trail What does happen is that you start enjoying the trail more as you get more relaxed. One of the secrets is to look ahead, pick your line and not concentrate on the stuff that is already under your wheels.

I am working on this now Body awareness seems to be my biggest challenge right now, but that will come with more practice...and my trainer has already changed my workouts after our ride this weekend.

side tangent - every time I see this thread I think it says "post a video of you while crying". Not sure what that says about me though.

I'm always taking the video, so I only have video of my family while they are cycling. Now crying, that I could get you some footage of.

we made a video. I have to figure out how to share it. It's just a casual ride

i'm frustrated all ready trying to change my avatar. I've made it 1" and it still will not show up correctly. The one that is appearing, I've deleated it and it still shows up. I don't get it. I have a vimeo account but never used it.

i have youtube but can't figure out how to get it uploaded. my husband put it on a DVD for me but I can't figure how to save it in my computer. And it's a mac. Sure, should do everything but spit 100 dollar bills. Ya right.

Here's yesterday's climbs. I managed to find four roads in Folsom and El Dorado Hills that I haven't shown yet. I had to use the footage from the handlebar-mounted Kodak Playsport because of an incorrect angle on the Contour's helmet mount. It was too high and pointed to one side, which caused almost all the footage to be useless.

Here's the only footage from the Contour that was viewable. This is me living up to my username by climbing a 100% grade-of the artificial rock type. This was at the Folsom Cyclebration cycling expo in Folsom City Park.
