Soooo. Have you taken the TUX out and tried a rolling panorama at low speed yet??? LOL.

LOL I should try that! Issue being its so cold now I'm dressed up like a deep sea diver... Maybe my Sena cam? That going to make Dave's pic look like a master piece!

Welcome to my weirdness.

You're not alone.....

Seems that are a few folks here that would like to discuss making pano images with digital camera or smartphone.
Have started another thread about that so it not clutter up this gamne, and so the discussion can go beyound this week.

This is the best that I could do with what I have. I caught this photo of an untamed TTR 125 in the wild.

This pic was taken a few years ago on an unseasonably warm Oct day when harvest was in full swing. The good wife had baked a fresh apple pie and mused how it would be nice if it could be in her brothers field at lunch time, some 200 miles away. I thought that sounded like an excellent idea for a fall day trip. The bike is an '81 Honda Silverwing Interstate PDV. (pie delivery vehicle)

That is a good story, Dave.
I bet they were pleasantly surprised when you rolled up on the PDV.

Nice pic and story.
Although the main objective of the posting is the picture, I think the story needs to include one more detail: What condition was the pie after a 200 mile ride in the PDV....?

I bet it was missing a slice! 🙄

They were Steve.
It was wrapped in bubble pack inside one of those round metal containers that Danish shortbread is sold in and then cushioned in a fleece jacket, all which fitted snuggly in the top box. It arrived in perfect shape, flakey crust and all. I got a slice then.

Picture it in your mind......
A long tall bridge rising over a river. It starts at ground level and rises to 150 feet at the center then drops back down. Said bridge has a bike (bicycle) lane and is lined with gooseneck style streetlights. Now picture a bike at the top, under a streetlight in a panoramic view. On either side the bridge falls out of view, and in the background are twinkling lights on either side of the Raritan Bay.
That's what was in my mind. I rode there and it was a no go. The lights were way too dim, and it was an unsafe spot to work in (traffic).

With no plan B I rode into Perth Amboy of all places and got this, the equivalent of a teacher saying hand something in when one bombs at an assignment . I got some better lit shots at a train station, but they were visually boring....
Trevor, you picked a challenging topic. I thought about it a lot this week, and learned a bit. Thanks.

I'll toss a vote in for Glen (Dorkburger). Your pic kinda has a post apocalyptic vibe to it.
