Salem Ride Pics 11-20-05

[manimal]

here are the best pics from yesterday's ride. i downsized them pretty drastically since there are so many, pm me your email addy if you want a full size pic. the color came out pretty crappy too but i can fix it to an extent.

--side note: you will see motomike referred to as "lando" or "lando mike". this stems from a nickname that i'm hoping will stick. you see, "lando" is short for -LAND-O-lakes WHIPPED butter- because mikey is the whip king and he usually lands butter smooth.--

the big air winner first:

alex on the hip ( i have the original, uncolorized, version if you want it...but the b/w made you stand out better)

I love all the pics!

I can see I missed a lot of chances for some more good footage. I will be editing the video together as soon as I get some time with the computer, and I will post a link to it as soon as it is finished.

@manimal, can you post the pic of alex going over showtime with the helmetcam on, the one that has a closeup shot of his face?

[untitledsince89]

ahaha sanchezes.

[escapeartist]

Yeah, I think thats my favorite part of that pic. the best part is that they have almost identical expressions on their faces. I had no idea they were doing that till I saw the pic.

Tubby, will you send me the good ones of me (originals and the colorized one please) I think you have my e-mail, but if not...its alexboyd88@aol.com. Thanks a bunch.

We need to get some more rides like this going. I wanna start doing some more video, and I'm gonna start shooting film out there. I cant get my digi to work the way I want it to in the woods.

[motomike]

showtime is all dirt now...we'll everything you can see is dirt, so yeah, all dirt that is.

[WKC]

What the hell is atop your helmet Alex? Damn, wish I coulda made it out there.

[formermtboarder]

wow everyone dont call me all at once for a fishing hole session!!!!!!!

serious boostage on that hip alex-RESPECT

[ridemap.com]

@WKC Alex is wearing my helmet and attached $30 hacked CVS disposable video camera. I use that setup to make helmetcam videos of the local trails. Check out the vids on my site: http://www.ridemap.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=27&Itemid=23

[downhill66]

[lux]

Dude, post that in the lounge or DH or something -- everybody's gotta see how it's done down here!

That music just friggen' kills me. I couldn't stop laughing.

[motomike]

that is the lamest helmet cam i've ever seen. how did he get it to film the right area yet alone stay there?:nopity: he needs:help:
Who are you to judge that? You posted a freakin thread about wanting to buy a supermonster. You sir, are the one who needs the help.

[motomike]

oh and let me throw a few of these you're way:

:nono: :nono: :nono: :nono: :nono:

It's not Alex that needs help, its you.

But, I will let WKC cuss your head off, not me. He's good at that! :p

yeah he has anger management problems. watch out!

[danW]

HEY DANGIT!!!

IZ SUMWON MAKIN' FUN OF BLU GRAS ...


In all seriousness "bluegrass rocks" and so did Alex's helmet cam!

danW

[lux]

HEY DANGIT!!!

IZ SUMWON MAKIN' FUN OF BLU GRAS ...

Not me, I love bluegrass. Hilarious to have it soundtracking a mtb video, though, when we usually get to hear some god-friggen'-awful faux-alternative garbage that's all the rage with the teenie-boppers.

[gastro]

my bad. hey you guys dont remember me do you(ryan phillips). im the one that used to ride at country park. i've got that silver anodized s-wroks enduro.

Umm, I think I remember you...not-so-cool kid, big mouth, busted your brake lever out there one time?

[WKC]

It's not Alex that needs help, its you.

But, I will let WKC cuss your head off, not me. He's good at that! :p
HAHAHAHA!!!! I would but I would rather go ride right now. I'll check back later in this thread for possible cuss-outage.

[manimal]

dude, that helmet cam mount was probably the most ingeniously creative way of mounting a camera on a helmet i've ever seen. cory is pretty friggin smart...buys a disposable digital camcorder, hacks it so he can re-use it and morphs it into a decent ride cam that wouldn't make you cry if it broke.
i challenge anyone that laughs at that mount to find something that works as good for as much as it cost him to make it....probably less than $1.00

Sure beats paying lots of $$$ for a Viosport helmet camera that will put you out a good $350 if you crash on it..once. Very ingenius with the disposable.

[downhill66]

nice choice of music tubby.
