Yep yep, they had a 4 part "making of" awhile back too. Very cool video, great idea.

The doc that redbull did to support imaginate is possibly one of my favorite documentary works. great shooting, great story, and of course, great biking!

Well, I'm in Maine temporarily to care for a family member who is very ill with cancer, and unfortunately i don't think i'll have to be here for another winter. When I'm done here I'm actually thinking of coming your way to Austin. I've heard it's a pretty bike friendly spot to live, true? Maine is beautiful, and I am loving it right now, but yeah, the winter is just too long and too brutal. I mean there was still snow on the ground here in April.

sorry to hear that and much love.

Austin is pretty awesome, I love it here. I moved her in 1995 and just kind of got hooked
summers are pretty dang hot.
best time to move to Austin is in the Fall so you get to enjoy an awesome winter before the massive heat strikes you down lol.

I'd say Austin is pretty bike friendly, I am bike commuter and I know allot of good routes.
be sure to hit me up if you move or come to visit.

Yep, the most beautifull city in the world.

There's barely any cars there to dodge, where's the adventure in that? I don't think I could handle riding in the street and not fearing for my life at every second.

The adventure is in first having a spliff (or 2).

Just kidding.

Yeh I watched it. Weird landscape, looks like it has been nuked.

Imo you could have edit the video, back to 3 to 4 minutes, the feetage looks suitable to get a visual rhytmic in it as well, repetitive pictures.

Anyways, you know of a good camera to put on your bike? Or did you put on your helmet?

I'm looking for one to buy.

Thanks in advance.

The camera is my buddy's, it's a Contour he won in some raffle. Works pretty good so far, though mounting any camera on the bike tends to make the video to bouncy. The GoPro cameras have better image quality I think, but they are bulkier and not as easy to mount without looking like a tellitubby.

24 hours on a rental bike just sounds painful
