Dragon Video

I gave a small clip of a video to DB at White Roof Radio of an incident on the run Jason from CooperSport.ca ran with my tow hook setup. He has it posted over on the White Roof Radio site if you want to see it.

I'm going through the rest of my video during the evenings this week to pick out any more higlights. I'll also figure something out for people who might want full runs and such.

You can always upload bigger movies to the server I setup just for this purpose.

BAck when I rode, I remember a coulple of times early on where I didn't trust physics... but I got over it.

Buahahahahah........hahahahahaha!

That guy had no idea what he was doing, or the limits of his bike or tires. The last place he should have been riding was the Dragon If you watch closely his acceleration is wobbly, and then once he semi-commits to the corner he puts his foot down on the turn!!! Someone with his riding ability should have stuck to parking lots for a while longer.

Thanks, I saw that last week. It's just that I've just now gotten some spare time to go through my video and pick out some interesting bits.

I'm going to have to consult with the one who ran the footage if he wants the whole thing made available (as he's a foreigner I don't think he's risking too much retribution for some driving choices).

Oh I don't care, I was just letting you know that if you had large files, with no place for hosting.

Glad to see the video survived the trek home! Also glad nobody is critiquing my own driving... yet

The rider was fine by the way. I helped pull his bike out and up. Aside from a bruised ego, a busted shifter peg and mirror and some more fairly minor cosmetic damage to the bike, the dragon let him off pretty easy. He also had a long time to reflect on his mistakes as he made his way back up the dragon in first gear!

Cheers, and thanks for posting the clip Matt... and DB.

Jason.
