Here is the footage from this past thursday's run through the gorge up in AZ.



This is my first attempt at making a video so bear with the quality. The sun being in it is PK's fault.

Very Nice....though the sun was coming down at a bad angle at times, made it kind of difficult to see. So how fast were you going? Looked liked around 100mph.

Now on a public forum we would have to say that we would have been traveling around the speed limit, we of course would not ride any faster than is safe for the bike, the rider, the road and the conditions.

If you would like further clarifications on the ride, we would be happy to elaborate via PM.

Gotta love the wide angle GoPro's. It makes all the difference in the world when trying to convey the sensation of speed. If I could quit screwing mine up, I'll have some good video's to post here shortly. Track day in Pahrump on 3/21! Hell yeah!

I have the newer Go Pro Camera's with the 170 degree wide angle, it's awesome. I have one video posted on you-tube, I filmed it at night along the strip, but I'm afraid to post it on this forum. Might get a bad image.

Next time shoot the video heading away from the sun would make for a much better vid. By the way the speed limit in there is 75 so I would say you where going about 74
