A few of you remember me, and have helped a great deal my preparation for last summer's 10000 miles, 21 days ride from San Jose, CA to Prudhoe  Bay, AK (artic ocean) on my 2000 885i tiger, then with 60000 miles on the odo.

The ride to the arctic was nothing short of an epic adventure, with thrills, chills, and spills. I don't even know where to start. I will do a nice write up tonight, but to start, please take a moment to view these two teaser trailiers (I have gotten into video editing lately due to the filming in these rides).

The first clip is a 5 minutes intro to the 40 minute DVD movie I put together with the media from the arctic ride.

The second video is another 2 minutes intro to a 20 minute DVD of our 4 day ride in the dirt roads of death valley, which took place 3 weeks ago. I can mail anyone DVDs if they like :)

Please, please, maximize your screens, and turn the volume ON, or you won't have the indented experience the "Director" here wanted to convey :)

The second clip thinks my Android tablet is a phone and won't play......

Oh yes, the second clip doesn't play on any mobile device, only pc computers (or macs). But it is better than the first one, you have to see :-)

I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

I'll look forward to more,the second started with just wind and engine noise as you do when riding a bike and I thought yea great  :wave (I watched the first in mute) then resorted to dubbed music :BangHead,both looked interesting trips,even a man on a Multi.
