It Almost Turned Out...

 well, time has passed quickly. i told you in the last post we were making a movie. well several things happened to make our movie less then expected.  first being that rich, the guy in yellow shirt had some bad luck. his chain broke the day after my last post. so we did not get the shots done that we had wanted, and spent our time walking home.  the day after that in a practice run i fell off a cliff like thing onto my tail bone, and was unable to ride after that. in fact, i spent till today recovering. i could not sit for the first several days, and even laying hurt for the first while. thankfully i am ok now, and back to my normal self, except a cold. which will soon pass.  but because of the incidents, we had a ton of clips, for random parts of our story line. so we ended up just combining the cool riding parts into a short 5 minute movie, with no story line. a little disappointing, but that is life i guess.


this is rich with his broken chain

me the camera man, just waiting.
doing some deep talking on the strategies of filming. 

 and this was just before Luke's chain broke.  the day before my last  post. 

 and a cool shot of where we ride. or just a tree were we ride.
have a good day all!

Having a Good Time

 the past few days my friends and i were out in the mountains shooting video for a short  mountain biking movie we are making. i got a few good pictures before the rain came.

a few days ago i woke up at 5 am to find that our dog had fallen into our garbage pit. so i climbed into the reeking pit and pushed her out with  the help of my father. it was not a nice experience.  and i have decided that i will not make a career of climbing into garbage. i was leaving the options open, but i have just narrowed my list down a little.
