This is Tape 1 Part B “Somewhere in France” and might be a little of Switzerland.
Oi!!! If you dont tell me what ratio you want it in I do it at default [:p] MEN!!!! [}]
June 19, 2008 at 12:30 pm #55616Ninja ManiaParticipantGreat write up Toggsy, and the video was brill, shame about the big fly or bee that got in the way, but great story to read just the same.
My stupid bro took his camcorder with him to TT but forgot the discs, t**t that he is.
I must try remember to make a diary next ride out we have, that one off yours has inspired me. Gon Yursel man.June 19, 2008 at 12:42 pm #55617RadarModeratorKeeping a brief diary works well on these trips. Just bullett points from the day and then when you check out your pictgures it helps you string it all back together.
I used this when writing up 2007 French trip

https://bikemeet.net/forums/topic/france-2007-part-4-day-10/Toggsy review has made me wish I had gone again this year, but you can’t do everything I suppose! I chose to go to southern Spain instead and had a cracking time there too. The moral is; if you get a chance to do some riding abroad take it, generally the roads and sights are simply stunning
June 19, 2008 at 4:42 pm #55618toggsyParticipantNow. This should be Part A of Tape 1. ie. the first footage taken. a touch bitty but hopefully enjoyable.
Video Part A tape 1
Somewhere in France.
June 19, 2008 at 4:45 pm #55619June 19, 2008 at 5:11 pm #55620toggsyParticipantI’ve sort help and think I’ve go it sussed now, Really it’s just a way of getting my posts up
Here we go
Some more footage for you to get a headache over.
If anyone is interested by the way, videos 1,3,4,5 are all somewhere in france with a bit of Switzerland and italy thrown in for good measure, actually Video 4 I think is the trip down the pass where the Jambons were camped out, that’s my excuse for going slowly anyway
Cheers
The best is yet to come, the camera is mounted on someone elses bike so footage will be a little more exciting…
Oh, and Part 2 of the write up will follow soon
Cheers
June 19, 2008 at 6:59 pm #55621TT07ParticipantExcellent stuff. I bet the amount of downhill twisties in videos 4 and 5 took there toll on everyones wrists and shoulders.
June 19, 2008 at 8:11 pm #55622RadarModeratorParts 4 and 5 are superb. The bloke in the Evo was a bit cheeky!
June 19, 2008 at 10:50 pm #55623toggsyParticipantI actually called him through, he had more rubber on the road than I did.
Good like that me!!!
June 19, 2008 at 10:51 pm #55624GixParticipantthere are 2 just uploaded, 2 left to go babe.
June 19, 2008 at 11:29 pm #55625DiggerParticipantGreat coverage,had me leaning watching the monitor.
June 20, 2008 at 9:03 am #55626GixParticipantJune 20, 2008 at 4:45 pm #55627RadarModeratorVideo 6, Napoleon run. Ahh such memories, loved the tyre warming at the start lol
June 20, 2008 at 5:02 pm #55628RadarModeratorI will check the other two later. Stonking stuff, no wonder I was thrashing my poor Thundercat so much last year!
