Chicago Relay ride

Actually, it's an old calling. Back in high school I had a job editing wedding videos. It was all on one camera, but the trick was to edit the sound (shorten or lengthen background music during the reception etc.) so you could cut the video to look like multiple cameras. The main lesson you come away from is that the sound transitions are more important than the visual to make things feel right.

I will say this, the fact that the sound is mostly noise, actually makes it much much easier to splice the sound without even a trace of evidence.

There are quite a few glitches in the video, but I just ran out of time. (My coworkers were starting to wonder why I was still at work 2 hours after punching out every night. But it was actually the best time to focus, without the distractions at home.)
You'll notice some of the transitions from front-view to rear-view etc. don't quite line up, and some of the speed transitions have a few errant frames here and there.

DaddyJama hasn't got back to me yet. He's in Sheboygan, about 40 miles NE of me. He would be next. If I don't connect with him this week it's going to Iowa, Minnesota and the Dakotas, prolly start next weekend. Wanna go along? Lou? Sax? Where the hell is Crappiehuntr? He's in Ottumwa should be in line.

Hi Tom, I don't think I can make it. I have a little too much on the plate in addition to work. Good luck. Hopefully we can do a ride later in the summer.

Really good video Lou. Good seeing you and the rest of the crew for the Chicago Leg. I now have my KZ650 running fine, dead battery was issue. If anyone needs help with the relay in terms of moving it along, I can make a run next weekend.

Yummy.

I should be able to have my bike going by next weekend. This weekend is Mother's Day and I have plans for the weekend celebration.
Give me a chance to gety bike together. I can take parts off of my 79 to make it happen.

I can run the flag this weekend on my KZ. Come along on your ZRX Lawrence if you do not have the 1000 put together by then. PING TOM! We can help out here! Sent a PM to you.

Saw this post on another site. Looks like Chicago. Only bad part is, it s not a KZ. So you don't get the nice KZ sound to add to the theatrics. Any of you Chicago boys ever outrun the man by doing a similar maneuver? :laugh:

I remember that scene. It was ok until the jump. Hilarious. :laugh:

Vancouver, by the way.

Wow, Vancouver, I was way off. I thought it was Chicago and part of it looked like Wacker Drive. Funny enough, I been to Vancouver before too, LOL. It would be neet to do a night ride through downtown Chicago. The visuals would be awesome.
