Sta. Elena bike run

w/ Ria, Vic, Cyn, Arnold, Jingle, Elbert, King, Joby, Kiko, Ali, Arnel, Joy, and their daughter

YouTube was muting the audio on mine because of the soundtrack. I tried switching soundtracks with the same result. After 3 uploads of 450MB files, I figured “fuck it, I’ll just use Vimeo for this one” It’s slower to load, but at least it’s not finicky about matching background audio.

Gallery here, and full footage of one of the trails below.

Nice, Carlo! Nakaka-spoil naman yung merong kasama sa rides na naka HD helmet cam. When I see other helmet-camera videos, parang, “Ay..” hehehe.

I really liked the trail, it’s newbie-friendly and yet good for advanced riders too; they can just go faster for a real challenge.

Hahaha, my thoughts exactly! Actually when I was canvassing for a helmet cam, non-negotiable ko yung HD dapat… kse na-spoil na na din ako sa video ng Lumix which was also 720p – so baseline na talaga dapat yon.

With regards to the navigation, nakakalito talaga yung part na yon; pansin mo when we were going back out, meron pala left din (we went straight to the road) – I think doon sila tumuloy. They should really put arrows on that part.
