Ted's ability to waste time...

I slapped on a borrowed GoPro for the 2011 Stanger Farm cyclocross race down in Walla Walla, WA this past weekend.  And by “slapped on” I mean I put it on my bike literally an hour before I raced it and really did not have any time to read how it works.  Also, I’m not any kind of video editing wizard or someone who really understands what the hell he’s doing with a video camera.  So…don’t expect much from the video.  In fact, I was having issues with the camera during the race and I feel lucky that I was even able to catch any of my race.  This video covers the last full lap of my race.  If you watch the video you will basically see the triple flyover plus a lap.  I really can’t stress how cool the triple flyover was.  It was by far the coolest “feature” I’ve ever ridden in a cross race.  The atmosphere at Charles Stanger’s farm is always fun and it would be well worth the drive from anywhere in the Northwest to do the race.

My race?  It sucked…I flatted at some point and lost a ton of grip in my front tire.  It was a slower leak and I washed out four or five times before it was completely flat.  A quick run to the pit and I was back out there.  But really, you don’t care about my race; you just want to see the triple flyover…
