You're looking lean. You starting to get back into it?

YGP, judging by your schedule, youve planned everything back to back with no margins in between. Are you sure that's doable?

The event times have reasonable point to point travel considered. We don't usually get to everything either. The greater purpose is to know what is available to do and when we can do it.

Got myself a Beatbuddy and Mooer GE200 multi-effect pedal.
I seldom dabble in effects so I'm entering a new world here.. the amount of options and variations are staggering ifnot mindnumbing

I just got my first GoPro. It's a Hero 6 Black. I got it to take on vacations and to record some of my rides. Any tips or ticks are welcome.

Tip: record on ultra wide so you can get at least half your head on camera.

What type of tips are you looking for? A gimbal is a good idea on a bike, it helps capture the bikes movement plus keeps the footage smooth, loads of YT vids about them. Pick and stick with editing software, changing all the time means you'll never get used to one system. 4K is a waste of time, 1080 60 is fine or there's a 960 which allows you to capture more at the top and bottom of the frame, better for MTB MX type riding. Set the auto off to a min or you'll chew through the battery in no time. Don't bother with mounting it on the bars unless you want to see vibration and feel sick.

What editing software do you use doombrain? I need something that allows me to set a specific bitrate. My videos look fine when I play them direct from the sd card but as soon as I upload it to YouTube they get grainy with any kind of movement.

For example.... Skip to 3:18 to see what I'm referring to.

Just Lightworks free, it seems the best of a bad bunch

I got back from my father/son Philly, NYC, Atlantic City and Baltimore trip yesterday. I got some good GoPro footage. So I hope to have some edited and posted soon. I use Cyberlink Power Director for video editing. It's a pretty solid program with lots of cool tools and free community developed modules.

Today was my last day of vacation, so I decided to take a little 120 mile (round trip) ride south. Here are some pics from today.

Off to Finland tomorrow with a stop in Paris, then Cuba again in late October

In under 2 weeks, I’ll be headed to Canmore/Banff for two weeks of climbing and outdoor stuff.

Looks awesome

Nice pics. Somehow the first one looks like it could've been taken here in the Netherlands. Mostly due to the overabundance of grass, the flatness and the cloudy skies I guess

Posted: **Sat Aug 18, 2018 8:52 pm**

Thanks. The first photo was taken as we were coming into AC on the Amtrak. AC is obviously a coastal city and it seemed like we crossed a substantial amount of undeveloped wet land as we approached. I'm sure cost to improve ground conditions/density is what has prevented construction in this area.

Gorgeous pictures for sure. Lucky for us, it is a beautiful world we live in.

Re: What is new in your little world? I just spent hours investigating a WLAN driver issue on my Wife's PC.

** I discovered that Windows updates now includes drivers; mine somehow failed. I couldn't roll back the driver for the old adapter but eventually got the one I hope. Anyway the wireless connection is back, fingers crossed.

On another note and re my weigh loss, I am approaching my goal weight having lost 11.9 kgs to date. According the the 'plan' I have 3kg to go but I will take it a little further to 80kgs to give me a little bandwidth

Lately I am really noticing my curves disappearing and my clothes getting larger

** Here is the item

By default, Windows 10 will automatically download and install drivers in Windows Update when they are available.

Starting with Windows 10 build 14328, there's a new policy included that you can use to enable or disable to include drivers with Windows updates. This can be handy if you prefer to download and install your drivers from the device manufacturer instead.

A group ride can actually look like fun when your roads aren't all drawn in with a ruler:
