    Devil's spine video

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ljkXdOmMinI

    *Playtime is sped up and speedo is in KPH.

    I've got about 5 hours of video from our trip last weekend. This one is primarily me chasing Spiderman since I was behind him the most.

    Covers the million dollar highway and the Coronado trail. Also includes our run in with THE LAW!

    Enjoy!

    Wow, that was a nice cop. I guess as long as you treat them with respect, they will respect you.

    I love the typical answer "The reason i pulled you over was for 77 in a 55" "was I?" .

    The really funny part was the rest of us were doing under 55. We had just taken off from a turn and were speeding up but Clovis got impatient and pulled away LOL.

    I was opening my helmet's vents and didn't notice the cop until he hit his lights. I'm glad he was a fellow sportbike rider (a ZX10) and decided to cut me a break!

    Isn't that a radar detector on your windscreen? did it go off when he pulled you over?

    But yeah you can tell if cops rides or not, they are way nicer, because they know.

    Re: Devil's spine video

    It is. Infact I had a wireless heads up display to my helmet to flash at me whenever it went off. It worked for about the first hour of my trip and then failed.

    I sent it back and replaced it with a siren speaker and 2 flashing LED light lads to go on my mirrors.

    looks like a good video. I'll check it out later
    mayo....

    Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
    Only I will remain."

    Re: Devil's spine video

    Oh trust me, I want to go back. I might return in the fall all though this time I would do things a little differently.

    I would leave earlier and ride straight to Alpine and stay in a lodge/cabin there and just ride 191 (the really fun part thats 1100 corners in 95 miles) over and over for a whole day, maybe 2.
