Title: helmet cam footage (going through a tunnel and over a large bridge)
Post by: bigben on April 27, 2009, 10:50:55 AM
here is some helmet cam footage from the other weekend.  I was riding in upstate pa and this trail is a old rail line system.  the tunnel is 1200 ft long and the bridge is 115 ft above the water.  115 ft doesn't seem like much till yer up on it.  you fellas be the judge.  the bridge and tunnel footage is in realtime.  the other stuff is sped up a bit to get through it quicker.

You guys got some nice places to ride.
You didn't look down for us when you were
out on the middle of the bridge.  :biggrin:
That still kills me that they have stuff like that
open to the public, especially without a bunch
of guardrails or somethin.

Thanks for taking me and Don along for the ride Bigben :highclap:  Next time if you don't mind I'll get off before you go out on the bridge, Geez I wouldn't walk on there let alone drive.  Don liked the tune as well.

Thanks, can't access it from work but will look into their CD when I get home. Are they local band in your area? I also heard another remake on one of your other videos I liked, and I'm wondering if it was the same band?

yes they are local.  he is friends with my lil bro.  he actually taught my brother how to play bass.  I am talking about the singer.  his name is colby dove and he is not really into the lime light at all.  mainly just local stuff.  he is awesome on the guitar though.  allthough he is equal on pretty much anything he plays drums bass whatever.  he can do it.  but he is a technical freak at guitar solos.
