heres the short vid from last night, its really dark! crank up the brighness on your moniter and you might see something, the noise is good though. It looked ok on TV but in the small quicktime window its bad.

I only made out the sillhuette going off the top, couldn't see much more.

Shame that gap at DH didn't come out either, it was NAZCORE!

Thanks Dan... I'm ok, except for some nasty bruises and swelling... and a sore neck.

The one I'm really worried about are my poor forks.:oops: Ah well, from what Squid said, Stan at Bike Addiction can make everything all better again (from installing a new steerer tube). He could be my new savior if it turns out to be true...

Hey,

Thanks for the ride it sucked having to finish it early after snapping ANOTHER derialleur! :roll:

So if anyone needs a spare LX jockey wheel or b-tension screw you know who to ask :wink:

Techno, that was a nasty crash, hope your elbow is feeling better soon and that your steerer it fixed up well.

Nice video, the gap over the water was cool, I somehow managed to miss it at the time.

Speaking of videos, my cousin is really into filming, and he would be keen to come along and shoot some footage of a city ride later in the year (when he has finished his HSC) if that is ok with everyone.

Cheers
