Wrench. Ride. Repeat.

This is yours? It's more than "nothing special". Love the Reverend. Looks like a fun day and I'm jealous of all the bikes. The video feels like an opening to something great.
 
Thanks for the kind words. It's actually a couple of group rides mixed together, but it took a couple rides to get the footage. I was wanting more than just the camera mounted on the bars. I hope to pick up another GoPro, along with another, better HD camera as well. Hopefully the vids will keep getting better. I actually have hours of footage of us hitting the twisties, but it all kind of starts to look the same.
 
Very cool. I liked it. I hope to get video of my 1800 miles to barber, but I could likely film 5 mins and loop it as a lot will be freeway to save time.
 
You should take some video. You know, for those of us who can't make it.

Even in the twisties, a lot of the footage I've taken starts to look the same. Some video of you guys having a good time, wrenching, screwing around as well as riding would be epic.
 
The music is terrible. That guy cannot sing.


Maybe a different singer and leave out the screaming part.
Of course I guess now days it just needs screaming from the very start.
Then some dinosaur noises. Sorry but I am a musician. I am very critical.
The filming starts out well, and the guitar playing is very good. But when the off key singing starts, it goes south.

Thats the Rev man... He's a musician too. It's only a 3 piece band. He's singing and playing at the same time. and that riff is tough....
 
The band is Reverend Horton Heat. I doubt they'll be replacing the guy who made them the most successful Psychobilly band of all time. I appreciate the opinion though. I mainly chose the song because of the contentious relationship between me, my bikes, and my wife. But I also like the band and the song. The scream coming after a relatively quiet intro also lent itself to the transition between the shots of the bikes at rest and the action shots.

I'm already thinking my next one will be to something much slower and quiet. Perhaps something instrumental....
