Hey all: Just finished the video from our trip to Canada. 6 of us from Idaho (and Utah) made a 3300 mile loop up to Canada and Merritt to Valhalla. Words can not describe the beauty and admiration I feel for your country. A riders paradise. Also very much appreciated the miles of smiles, and warm welcome from everyone. Anyway, here is 3300 miles packed into 6 min 44 sec. It is best viewed on a large screen TV with a nice sound system, but will show just fine on portable devices. Hope you enjoy it. Greg. https://youtu.be/dwGd_-NU0tw |

Excellent job. Thanks for sharing. I rode a lot of that including Valhalla on the way back from Fairbanks Alaska 3 years ago. Brings back memories.

Nice Job!
Couldn’t agree more.
Canada has great roads & the friendliest people on the planet.
Looks like a great group of riding buddies.

excelant, my brother and I are planning a trip up to Detroit, the cross over into Canada and go along the top of the lakes to at least Buffalo maybe. further if time and weather allow. then back into US and back along the bottom of the lakes back home. got our passports coming. Should have them and be ready to go mid August . I did the Glacier Park run last year, it was fantastic. now my daughter got me a go-pro so I can record the trip. Looking forward to the ride. Ride on life is good

If you have a go-pro, get on line and purchase a wrist-mount for it. Makes your videos much more interesting seeing it at different angles. I’ve even used a “selfie-stick” with a gopro mounted on it to get video of myself, the bike, the road at low angles, etc. really makes for interesting video. Be careful when you’re doing all this video work, one needs to be most cognizant of the importance of riding the bike first and foremost. |
