Bike Videos Around The Villages
 

Hi Folks...This is a video I took while riding my EBike around the Villages. I take you onto paths that unless you"re a walker, runner or cyclist you probably will never see. Check it out . I know that some of what you hear coming out of my mouth may not be %100 correct but I haven't figured out how to edit these videos yet. For some reason the second video starts in the middle so you'll have to go back to see it all. Let me know what you think Thanks!

First Video is an introduction https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nlel6BBKLPE
Second Video is the Ride https://youtu.be/6O0A1tTHw8Y

Guess this no interest...Oh well

Well, I watched it all, and thought it was most entertaining.
But.
Very long. IMO, 25 mins. tops, is plenty.

Also, posters on this board do like a good moan or rant.
Throw in some shots of dog poop on the paths, roundabout mishaps, or even show cyclists blasting through all the Stop signs.:icon_wink:
That will get a whole different response.
Good luck, and may the force be with you.

Thx TwoBill
My next video I believe is around 30 minutes
Love the constructive criticism. I'm new to this and appreciate your comment

no video clicks
 

I see there are over 700 views but hardly anyone is clicking on the links . I wonder why

Any comments or constructive criticism is welcome

Check the lens setting. Hurts my eyes trying to watch the current setting...

Not sure what you mean .Is it the clarity of the video? Is it the movement ?The video's exposure and clarity seem fine . The movement is my head moving with the camera helmet mount. I can try it on a chest mount or handlebar mount. Thanks for letting me know. I'll try to make changes in future videos

The size of the screen is WAAAAAY small and skinny... Restricts the field of view.

Thanks. I'll try shooting horizontally

Maybe slow down and mount the camera on the side somehow so we can see the houses. Thanks for the video.

Which side? There are houses on both sides. If there's something in particular you want me to shoot let me know . I'll try to accommodate any request I get

Bike Videos Around The Villages
 

Hi Folks
I have a few questions to those of you that have seen the videos I've been putting on here . I'm trying to show you all the paths i take on my bike while giving you updates in the new areas. I will also be doing videos all around the Villages not just the new places.
O.K. Question number one.. Is this something people would be interested in?
How often should I be putting new videos out?
Is there something specific you'd like to see?

I'm new to this and would appreciate any input. I would love to hear comments' suggestions and even criticisms. Thanks everyone, Hopefully this will be something that people want!!

It is people like you who knowingly ride bikes where they are not allowed that give the rest of us bad names.

Not interested. I ride my bike daily. You either have paths that are shared with noisy traffic from vehicles or are nearby the traffic & noise and then the nice quiet ones that meander behind the villages alongside the ponds and wooded areas. One path is basically like another so seeing other paths in different areas is pointless. Taking videos of various bike paths in TV is like taking videos of various Walmart's. There is no real difference; they all look the same.

Doesn't matter, just like to see houses and not street.

Thank you for your input...have a great day!!

Dude

You're welcome

Have a blessed day!

Much better..... but are you on a GC or a closed GC ??

I kinda scanned thru. I am not a biker but it would seem to me that bike riding in construction zones is not allowed. A meeting accidentally with one of those dump trucks would be painful. The drivers probably are not on the look out for a wandering bike rider.
At least on one occasion a stop sign was ignored..
You asked……………

Thanks...Have a blessed day

From Golfing in The Villages Brochure

Safety on the Course
• Golf courses are restricted to golfing traffic only.
• Please refrain from riding, biking, fishing, walking
or engaging in other recreational activities on
the courses.
• Pets are not permitted on golf courses or practice
facilities at any time.
• Please allow golfers ahead to move out of range
before hitting a shot in their direction.
• Play is over at dusk

Slow down your head turning your video is trying to capture too much at one time and gives a dizzy feeling

Maybe use the chest mount or handlebar mount. I can't help my head turns . I'm always looking around

Sounds like someone, a novice, trying to put out some interesting content, asking for suggestions and hoping to make a better product. Not be harassed. I’m sure the OP intentions weren’t meant to infringe upon another members ‘man crush’ on his/her fave TV YouTuber! Lighten up Francis!

Thank you!!

I'm sure your intent was good but I wouldn't post the fact that I was trespassing on a local forum.:shocked:

2 minutes and you blow past no trespassing sign. That was enough for me.
How did you get your entitlement badge to break all these rules?

I have a question....when watching the other ‘Nuts videos...when the drone is lowered into entrance ways, parking lots and businesses that are yet to be occupied or opened. Is that not ‘trespassing’ as well? Or do you have to obtain prior permission to do so? It’s not a premise to a joke....just wanting some edification from someone who seems to know both ‘Nuts better than the rest of us...

This guy is riding a bike where he shouldn’t.

You’re probably right....but that didn’t answer my question

A lot of your questions don’t get answered .😁

OR, as a good friend used to say at the end of a speech...’Any questions?....No? Then you must have all the answers!”

I believe the nut of whom you speak - he of the golden variety, is very careful to obey all rules. He does not fly over people or vehicles. He also parks wherever he is allowed. He does not go around barriers or into active construction zones to park or fly. Usually he flies from postal stations which are not off-limits and open in an area before almost anything else because people move in long before stores or rec centers open.
