Ride outs and Photos taken From October 2012 to January 2013.


Ride Out to Flamborough Lighthouse October 2013.


“Oooooh its windy she says!”

“You wait till I have had me mushy peas i`m thinking.”

Bit overcast with attempts at sunshine. A roads all the way out to cross the Humber Bridge.
Supposed to be 12 degrees ha ha, dipped to 5 . Julie not amused but had a barn door to keep her warm. Photos low quality as it was so overcast. One or two made a page in cooling tower monthly.

Fish and Chips for dinner “Grand it were!”

Suitably fed watered and warmed we admire the view for a few more minutes and then off home.



Ride Out To See Early Morning Sun In The Peak District November 2012.

Having not ridden for 3 weeks due to work and home interfering with play time, decided to get up early and have a run into the Peaks. Dressed for chilly weather fuelled and ready . Whose idea was this its cold, once underway I stop muttering at myself and scoot off to blow the cobwebs away. Lots of ice where the puddles are and the road up to Burbage and Stannedge has a hoar frost covering. Bit of a backend step out on the hairpin after burbage. The best thing is because its early theres only 2 or 3 cars about. Stunning views too. Probably needed a tripod but chough that for a malarkey. Heres a few photos from today.

Beautiful pictures :beerjug: some of the pictures is a little bit blurry is that because of cold ? Or its what you get with a GoPro ?
 
Agreed. Some smashing pictures there.

I must, MUST get the bike ACF 50'd up next year to enjoy days like those.
 
JB, will endeavour to meet up. In discussions about Stafford Do but can not commit yet.

Cooperman, I am built like a very large Eskimo,like the cold although me arthritic fingers give me jip. Have muffs but this year also have some exo2 mitts over thin summer bike gloves. They run from a little battery max 3 hours.

Mikati Poor pictures are on the move when two up and low light.

Timaloy ACF 50 is your friend then rinse off with water on return. Works for me.

The best pictures are taken using my Canon G12 some on an exped monopod / walking stick,lovely bit of kit.
 
Fantastic pictures :thumb2 Did the missis take the ones on the move over your shoulder??

Not mastered photos on the move on my bike yet :idea
 
Jersey GS,
pictures taken by the missus from the back of the bike September to April when her bike goes back on the road.
Photos on the move camera around neck , pull clutch in to freewheel right hand point shoot and fire. Most of route des grandes alpes tour last summer taken like that. Takes a little practice.
 
Hey nice one :beerjug: will give that a try, just invested in a Gopro so hopefully should get some better on the move pics :thumb
