    "Nothing Illegal here,no,nothing to see,move along"
    Must catch up for that coffee!!

    Good stuff Jim. Was good to see the whole climb in one continuous video!

    Woo hoo! That was FUN!!!!

    So that's what it feels like to do the hill at more than 30! LOL. Normally takes me about 20 minutes to get to the top!!!

    Thanks for the cool ride!

    Damn nice!
    There seemed to be a large amount of traffic about for a Sunday morning! Especially passing-lane blockers...

    LOL, handy tip of the day # 643!

    Think I prefer Jim's vid to any that I could do - the corners are spectacular (well, when compared with my 'ohmigod, ohmigod, there's a corner, slow down' type riding And the ginny's not really the right machine for getting one's knee down in any case! Oh, and I'm not allowed to ride at the mo, of course *sigh*)

    Mate that rocked. The last minute or so was very nice, clear run... felt like I was in the pilot's seat.

    Gotta get me down there sometime on the RF me thinks...

    Great vid Jim! Makes me wish they'd extend that road another 20k's or so, it's way to short.

    Maybe not a knee but a boot? Lissa? (http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/sh...87&postcount=7)

    Sony DSCP8, which does 640x480 movies, and a 128MB memory stick.

    Holy crapamolie - I would never have guessed you'd have managed to squeeze that footage onto 128Meg stick. Rispek.

    My new still camera takes 7.8 megapixel 3000x2000 pixels photos and they end up as 1mb jpegs.... even im amazed, horay for asains!

    makes the 2gb mem stick that came with it seem pointless

    I'll check out the dig cams you mention!
    Have you seen this thread: Oregon Camera (Bike Cam)

    It looks like a cheap option for a bike cam. Then there's also spycams and surveilance cameras on trademe that might do the job if plugged into the A/V in on a video camera.

    I don't know how well they work though.

    Jim, there's absolutely no excuse not to be braking from 200+ going into that first corner! Also, tighten those lines up! I thought that 750 could turn laddy?



    PS, good video, when was it? I see they've removed the bit of wooden post on the apex of the left hander after the second passing lane.
    Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.
