Stepping Stone overtaking

December 27, 2012 by Mike Calvert

Stepping Stone overtaking – done carefully on a wet road! Didn’t want to use my brakes, so was ultra careful with the throttle, and the cars were nicely spaced, so the only way to make progress here was to take them one at a time.

Finally! A ride in daylight :-)

December 24, 2012 by Mike Calvert

Thanks to an early finish – well, it IS Christmas Eve! – I finally get to ride and film in daylight – yee ha!! Also testing a separate mic – think it works a bit better, but still room for improvement… Grabbed far more footage than was really necessary, such was the novelty of riding in daylight..
