I enjoyed this descent down Monitor Pass too. Turn up the sound and you will hear how much I enjoyed it.

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!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!
I hope this was worth the wait

The best part is about 45-55 seconds in.

OK, I think I found out why my Garmin went nuts on August 6 when I did the Monitor Pass descent.

We're having a bit of an Indian Summer here in the UK . The light was lovely a couple of nights ago on the Promenade. I loved how big my wheels looked in the shadow.

Happy pedaling
Nice videos all. Really enjoying this thread – both the rides and the creativity. Thanks bellissima for starting it. The mountain biking ones make me wonder if it's too late for me to learn. I reckon it is but it's fun to watch. Dr. Doo, I like it. It's been a gorgeous week of sunshine 'down south'.
