They look like crap, cracks and pot holes everywhere. Doesnt make me want to go to Arizona.
2. This video had some cool parts and angles that would be great in a mashed video with multiple angles. But the music was a little too funky for me... I didnt dig the whole "wooo whoooo" thing. It was a little strange.
3. Good scenery, shitty roads once again. Cracks and pot holes in a road completely break the ride for me. Maybe you should get on your governor and have them improve some of them. And I probably wouldnt have made that pass at the end of the video, seemed a little too risky to me.
All in all good footage, learn some video effects and thats where the real videos will begin.

I'll definitely agree that parts of TTF sucked road quality wise. However, when we got higher, the road got much better. Highway 89 (the last video) wasn't bad at all! Sure, I almost wiped out on one pothole, but that's to be expected on 2 lane roads here. Just don't out ride your limits and leave some margin for error and you're fine. I actually learned something from my first crash!

I choose the music by my mood at the time. I have quite an expansive library and taste in music so that's why the music in my videos is so diverse.
And trust me, I know all about video effects and everything. I've just been out playing with different angles on the gopro, seeing how they come out. I just throw the footage in the editor I have an make small <hour projects for fun. I see no need to add in effects for <2-3 minute videos of practice footage. Once I find a few angles I like I'll make a much more sophisticated video that I think you'll enjoy more. These are more for myself and a couple friends to enjoy, but I figured people may like to see some more riding videos.
And I love the pass comment coming from somebody who passed 3 cars at once over the double yellow in his video

. That was my cleanest of the 3 double yellow passes I did that day. I had a great sightline through that small curve and knew that I had quite a buffer before the next car would come. I just enjoy watching myself pass things plus it gave me a chance for people to hear my engine for a second before the video ended, haha. I'm safe about it though.
