Well I figure I Ride basically every day. So I got to thinking when I was messing with my camera (point and shoot)
So I made a mount:
and went riding:
and came out with this:

I know it is not a Production worthy MTB video, and the middle is a little boring and it seems "tame" but I am happy with how it came out. It was something that was entertaining to do. the whole trail is 10.21 miles which I can do in about 40-45 minutes depending on the wind. while filming today it took me 1h20minutes tho. Darn.

A mountain!!
i used to ride the trails around that mountain at least 3 times a week back when i lived in cruces!
i lived right there too i could hop on the bike ride out down the street thru a little allie way and be at the base of the mountain in about 20 minutes.
it would turn to almost 15 mile ride from my front door around the mountain and back!
thats awesome video you made too its worthy to be up on pinkbike or vitalmtb
being the rider and the filmer makes it cool too

Hello from the ABQ NE Heights! I've been wheeling my stock-height 92 Cherokee for a couple of years. Full-time career, wife, child, church and home-ownership keep me from building the monster rig of my dreams, so I'll have to settle for modesty. I'll eventually lift 3 inches just to counteract the severe sag from old springs and a heavy bumper/sliders.
