Grasshopper Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 After my excitement in the forest on Saturday, I almost forgot about my Friday. Having the two bikes is like having two different personalities. I'll just add them to my collection.... We went for a nice ride on the Hondas up the coastal highway to a Heritage Centre in Egmont, which is at one end of the coast. The centre was closed, but it was still a great place to stop and enjoy the odd items around the place. Like this cool old Studebaker! The heavy logging equipment was a nice backdrop for the bikes. There was the local fire truck and of course a native totem, as this is the traditional territory of the shíshálh (Sechelt) Nation. ....and there was even a whale on wheels. It is a local symbol of the natives and most likely used in parades and such. It was a great ride and my fastest overall average speed on this stretch of road. It is all Charlotte's fault! I made up a short ride log video for your viewing enjoyment! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a 360 GoPro camera on the handle bars. I really like how it captures the whole surroundings, but some people get annoyed by the perspective. I like it, but it does require additional steps when editing the footage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly interesting but some of the angles are a bit odd, at one point it looks like you're riding sideways somehow, which I can see would bother some people. always good to play with different stuff though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit extra work, but I enjoy it all very much, so it is fun for me. Thanks for asking. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
