A Fresh Start

Well, we've gone off and started our own new company. It's been really tiring the past few months, but we all think we're off on the right track now. Check out the vid and see what we're about. I think you'll like what you see.

From the Front Fork

I'm in bike mounted video mode now. Here's another vid of biking, this time from the front fork.

Taipei Cruising

Though technically this isn't a ride to work video, I wanted to share it with everyone to get people inspired to ride to work! Enjoy!

One Small Bike

And I thought I thought the wheels on my bike were small. Check out the wheels on this guy's road machine!

From my experience, riding anything with a wheel smaller than 12" in diameter is pretty tiring due to ride geometry and the smaller degree of angular momentum stabilization from the smaller wheels. I asked this guy if it was tiring riding this bike and he said not at all. He said it was in fact great exercise. I couldn't agree more.

Rain!

It started raining a bit on the way in to work this morning. About time. Taiwan is facing a pretty bad water shortage if it doesn't rain like pronto. Most water reservoirs are at only 30% capacity now, which means huge water rationing will start in a couple of months if the heavens don't open up and spill forth a ton of water. Let it rain!!!

Biking to Work Redux

My ride to work as seen 4cm from the ground. Sped up so as not to be too boring. Filmed using a GoPro HD cam.

Going Pro

Playing around with the GoPro HD recently. It takes some pretty nice video. Just have to figure out the somewhat complex menu system. Here, I've attached it to the chain stay of my bike to get a slightly different perspective on my ride to work.
