Just Riding Along

Scenes from my big dumb bicycle life.



Lookie, I made a movie! This was shot entirely from the saddle of various bicycles, using a Fuji point-and-shoot camera. Produced with iMovie on my iMac in my iSpare iTime.

I like your music selection. Nice video.

Wow, that was cool. Loved the backing track and the "shadow-on-wall" scene.
You are spoilt for bike paths. I have never seen anything like those before.

Thanks to all!

Indeed antoine, downtown Madisonian cyclists are spoilt rotten to the core. We enjoy an infrastructure built with the efforts of countless unnamed cycling advocates, stretching back to the War at Home days. I wish all American cyclists could have it so good.

I loved that. The backing music was just right and I liked the train shots against the pedaling of the bicycle shots. Excellent stuff.

This is really wonderful, especially the Shadow Biker. Nice music, too..

Just wanted to let you know -- again -- just how much I like this. I don't normally ride in the winter, so this this a great way of vicariously revisiting my favorite trails while the weather is bad for a wimp like me. Though, I dunno, I used to ride a bike on my paper route in the winter when I was a kid. Maybe I should give it another try...
