5 minutes in heaven/Wilderness State Park RD video

Post by reelrazor »

Hey, here's some video from one of my favorites. It's a bit over 5 minutes and the wind noise is pretty bad, but enjoy.

Yeah, I experimented a bit this last sunday. I had a hard time getting enough foam over the mic to cut the noise and still stay in place at speed.

I have a bunch more vid from more fun roads..but want to lay in a soundtrack first....

Yeah, a bit south/west of Mackinaw City on Lake Michigan.

It is a little side trip on the Mack Cty-Cross Village run...really only fun to ride after the summer tourist/camping season. The park has a lot of traffic comong and going between Mem. Day and Labor Day. As you saw in teh video I had no other traffic with me. One the run coming out I passed one vehicle.

I have vid from M119 a bit later in that day but it is 22 minutes long and that road is a bunch more bumpy. I'll get that uploaded at some point.

Aaand, here's another. Not quite so much the speed run of the other. More of a fun fall color tour. The black H-D running with me is my bud Bill. Look for me pushing the camera down so you can see I am going 55mph(straight up on my speedo) after a long right hander and passing a herd going the other way.

And about two thirds thru I just had to pass an HD rider on the outside of (what to me was a sweeeper-to him prolly a switchback) turn.

Enjoy!
