I hit 61.3kmh last night coming down the berg, which is a personal brown trouser best for me. My arms felt like they were being jolted from my sockets, and the curve at the end of the 5km was frightening - it had tram tracks across it. Thanks god it was dry :-)
138 viewings so far. Have you looked at your own work a lot, or do too many people have too much time on their hands?.....Actually forget I asked that.
Pff, kissing-close. Racing line. The video really does make everything look a lot closer and faster than it is. Just wait til I find some real traffic. You should see Ravenbait. Love to cam her up, she makes me look like Miss Marple when it comes to traffic jamming. And Charlotte, heh, she's a nutter. Must strap cams to ladies in lycra...
As for software, that's Microsoft Movie Maker, which was free with my lappy. Upsides: free; quite clever import tool (it guesses where to cut shots); easy subtitles and soundtrack stuff. Downsides: simple - Fisher Price video if you're "serious"; one soundtrack at one time; once you enter titles, you can't apply a style to all so changing is a faff (I need bigger, clearer subtitles next time); restricted to WMV or pimpy DVD output, no MP3 (but that doesn't matter if you're just uploading to YouTube).
