    VIDEO Video video

    Fixed my connection, replaced an ADSL Line Filter and everything seems ok now.
    So I left it uploading and went to bed for a while.

    You have a choice of DivX or Youtube. I think even the 12Mb DivX version is better quality than Youtube in places.


    The far better quality one at 24Mb in DivX, this is by far the best zoom to full screen picture of all options here.

    Here's a DivX version at 12Mb. (Proberbly quickest to download for dial up in a hurry)


    Or the You tube version... (You can't easily save the Youtube version)

    Just added it to Google Videos. It came out ok there, better than the Youtube version and google videos are saveable too.

    Note:If you click the 'Google' button bottom right of the video controller then click the 'go to Google' words then you get the video in it's own page and can download/save and/or watch full screen.

    Excellent work again TA.

    You and Plug looked like you were in your element wading around in the (challenge section) water.

    Looks like you guys had a awsome day. Wish I could have been there.

    That water crossing looks kinda deep though. Not supprosed that there were "incidents" with crossing it.

    Keep up the good work TA.

    For those who hadn't heard the incident was my DR250 dieing in fright as soon as the front wheel was in the water.
    Diagnoses is that the carby breather tubes on the suzuki design couldn't breath once under water effectively stopping the engine. That's why it was so easy to start once out the other side.
    Fix: cut the breather tubes, put T's in them and add another tube on to the t's that runs up like a snorkle under the tank or seat where the airbox snorkle is.

    Sounds like an easy fix TA. Quite silly that they'd design it with such a flaw like that in the first place though.

    Just finished watching the DVD, great effort TA, captured the ride beautifully. The music wasn't too bad either, not as bad as you were making it out to be. (still not what I would listen though)
