Popular Post Dirtyhip Posted July 20, 2017 Popular Post Share #1 Posted July 20, 2017 This will not impress@jsharr, it's still cool though. Pay attention at :50. That is where the log feature is. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Square Wheels Posted July 20, 2017 Share #2 Posted July 20, 2017 That's cool. Thanks for NOT adding music. I'd rather listen to the wind, or other natural sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parodybot Posted July 20, 2017 Share #4 Posted July 20, 2017 See, this is much more impressive than that tripe you posted earlier. The sound of the rushing wind added excitement and a sense of speed. The jump at around :30 was much better than what happened in your other documentary. the best part was your little giggle (I could see the smile on your face in my robot brain) after the log ride of death. Two robot thumbs up! @jsharr is a putz. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisL Posted July 20, 2017 Share #5 Posted July 20, 2017 Very cool, I totally get the little giggle when you cleared the log! Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirtyhip Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share #6 Posted July 20, 2017 The light sucked for this ride. In some directions, it's like riding blind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr Posted July 20, 2017 Share #7 Posted July 20, 2017 You have a very smooth pedaling style. I assume a chest mount? Your upper body is really steady when cranking the pedals. Thanks for the video. I would have been out in the Rhubarb on the first corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smudge ★ Posted July 20, 2017 Share #11 Posted July 20, 2017 Looks like a nice little ride for you. Out for a stroll kinda thing! But I shall pass on the log, even though it doesn't seem TOO schralpy. I'm sure I could f it up pretty good. Ya, the GoPro has a tough time processing those light changes. Seems to do better on cloudy days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reverend_Maynard Posted July 20, 2017 Share #13 Posted July 20, 2017 Can't really tell how tall the log is. If it's less than a foot down to the trail, it looks like something I would do. If taller than that, the risk/reward ratio starts to tip too for towards risk for my taste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kzoo Posted July 20, 2017 Share #14 Posted July 20, 2017 It's nice to see that you actually pedal your bike. So many of your videos are just you casually coasting down the side of a hill. I was starting to wonder....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to do better on cloudy days. There is a local guy that is a quadriplegic now, after crashing in this zone. There was a crappily built jump here, and it got replaced by the log ride. It took me several years to build the confidence to ride the log. It's scarier than it looks in video. The log is higher on the left than the right, but it is a very easy feature. It's pretty low consequence. Although, there is a large brush pile to the left and you have to avoid the tree at the end of the log. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Further Posted July 20, 2017 Share #18 Posted July 20, 2017 I used to ride the 30 or so feet of railroad tie that lined my driveway at the time. They were about 8 inches wide and maybe 5 inches sticking up. It was a lot harder to do than I would have thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zealot Posted July 22, 2017 Share #23 Posted July 22, 2017 Nice, DH! The giggle afterward made me smile. I usually whoop or yell when I clear an obstacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
