    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Squamish Run

Wow, great video. Really brings back memories of my misspent youth of the early to mid '70s when our Sunday morning ritual was a rather quick ride to Whistler and back. No traffic back then like there is now and Whistler was a sleepy little town. It's still great ride though and the scenery is still spectacular. I moved away in '79 and we drove it last summer for the first time since then, unfortunately it loses something when you're in a truck and camper.
 
looks like a good time great roads up here
You got to love the Northwest
cheers

Nicely edited. How many cameras did you have rolling at any given time?

I had some serious camera issues. Too much vibration I think for the record heads on the sony even with it foam mounted. Will be needing some new kit for next season. I ran a mini DV sony up front under fairing, SD helmet cam firing backwards (couldn't use footage, too crappy) insert footage is my iPhone (dash, shifting, headshots)
 
Hey... what's with the cars passing? Did you pick the song before making the vid so you could pass that car back?

I like seeing the "fin".
 
I shoot all the footage then pic the sound track. At that point in the road it was 80kph limit. Good place to get nicked. Those two cars came flying up behind me. If you look carefully on the right you will catch the radar readout sign flashing as I aproach it. Not for me but for them. They were doing about 25mph more than me. Where I passed them back the limit is back to 90kph and no places for sneaky boys and girls to hide. 30 over up here as of July 1st is an immediate suspension of license and confiscation of your vehicle.
 
Fair enough. I got nicked just past Squamish back in 88' on my 1100ET. I was doing 125kph, at night and he was waiting on the east end of town. I wrote some silly letter to the Ministry of Transportation and never payed the ticket. No issues from it, crossing the border.
