What?! Trails in Victoria?! - A cool little vid of our freshly completed trail....
Hey all,

Well our trail, dubbed Aviator (long before the Hollywood motion picture) has finally been finished. We started her in June of 2004, and built like crazy for a few months... Then school kicked in and slowed down the building major... but now she's all finished and ready to go!

The trail itself is awesome to ride, as almost no pedaling is required (= flow). Unfortunately, you do have to push your bike back up (often we shuttle each other up on my friend's motor bike).

Here's a little vid (15mb, 1:30 long), of us (my buddy and I) hitting her up. All editing and filming was done in a day, but I think it still turned out pretty good.

Feel free to cretique the vid itself, but the main purpose of it was to showcase the completed trail.

PLEASE right-click and and hit "save target as", because this is Coop's bandwidth, who was generous enough to let me use it.


http://robotsweat.com/wes/Aviator.mpg

Any Vic riders, or anyone else who wants to come out and hit her up, shoot me a PM and we'll work out a date.

The trail is on my friend's property, so I'm a little weary of who I let on it (grom = fall off + sue).

Cheers!

p.s. I have no idea why the drop cut

It was fine on my buddy's computer, but when we burned it we lost one or two seconds.

Oh, and I'm riding the Bullit, he's on the Transition.
