Local Progression video (Falls City)

this is a video that was made by Joe Rykowski of Salem to benefit the
'Blackrock Freeride Association.'
(http://blackrockfreeride.org/mx/index.php)

the video is called'Local Progression ' (http://norware.com/biking/) and
took the whole summer and weeks after the make. Joe did a great job on
the whole thing...all we had to do was ride

(all the music is from local Salem Oregon bands!)

in return for a copy of the dvd, John_childs was kind enough to do the
job of editing the MUni parts out and loading them to my gallery. there
is a big 45 meg version you need Divx for and a 14.5 meg version that
plays through everything else. just make sure you have Divx if you want
the bigger one or your browser will just sit there.

this has takin longer to post than i intented. first i wanted to get
some footage that wasnt in the movie from Joe and then Gene
(DudleyDoRide) went and had himself a good time in Mexico last week so i
had to wait for him to get back. to me the its kinda funny to watch
since the only thing i have left of that Muni is Arrow Wide Byte tyre
and the DK pedals.

it is important to mention that there is alot of stuff up in Falls City
thats there now that wasnt during taping. there is more of everything
cool, no teeter todder yet for some reason. i think they want me to
build it? durring one part of DDR's ride you will see a biker super
imposed over him. what was then a rolling drop to the road is now a jump
over the road! So thats whats that part is all about.

none of stunts are outlaw builds, the forestry service is working with
the BFA like you never see with most Gov like entities.

(Round of applause) for all the fokes that poured there time into
this.

the ambulance at the beginning of the crash footage is from the Gorge
games (i wasnt there). Sorry to the bikers for clipping then out of the
loaded vid here but this is a unicycling forum after all

oh, at the beginning you will see three muni's. MuddyCycle didnt want to
be in the video but it looks like he got a cameo apperance anyway.

hmm? sould i type more? naw. here is my gallery link.

Looks like some great riding, when is the Muni weekend going to be? It
looks like as good of a place as any to hold a Muni Militia meet

Hopefully you'll build yourself another muni to ride some more this
season.

Cheers

well i got the Hunter going now. this summer i'll see how it is for up
there,currently i have no brake and thats gonna hurt.

i would like to have a Oregon muni week-end. getting about 15 muni's up
there would be sweet and Falls city is fun enough for two days. maybe a
3rd day in Bend on the Mckenzie river trail but thats 3 hours away,
week-ends are two days anyway.

Great video Jagur. It's nice to see more muni videos here...there
aren't enough of us muni riders these days. Looks like those 170mm
cranks are working out well for you. I still think 160mm would also
suit though.

Great muni video! Very nice riding Jagur and Gene.
The seatpost cam shots were a very cool perspective, even if it did feel
a little weird to be looking at the trail from between your legs.


Nice work on the steep stuff, and skinnies. Like I said before, how can
you not ride there? It does look like a good place to have a brake
though.

I apologize for the bad audio in the clips. The DVD copy that Jagur
gave me had bad audio. I think the audio got normalized during the DVD
copying process which messed up the relative volume levels for the
tracks. Jagur assures me that the real DVD has proper audio levels for
the music and trail sounds. Don't let the messed up audio levels in the
clips make you think that the original DVD is messed up.

sharing copies of the DVD is not a problem.

Good stuff. Wasn't there a big thread about Muni vs Freestyle
recently. Looks to me like freestyle skills can be used while on the
trails.
