Sunday scoot

Last Sunday I felt the need to listen to a T-plane triple and also wanted to try out some different settings on the new DJI camera.  Initially I'd planned a bit longer ride over the Gentle Annie to finally finish off the rear tyre but with the weather being a little bit funny I decided on a shorter trip through to Pongaroa and then home.  I also really enjoy the Makuri Gorge and thought it was worth videoing again...

Riding over the track there were a few spits and some damp roads and this pretty much continued all the way through to Pahiatua and the quarry just before the Makuri Gorge.

It was here that I turned the camera on.  The result is whatever Youtube did to my original 50fps, 4K video.  I also tried out the noise suppression on the camera at maximum, this was a big mistake as everytime the "noise" changed, it would take a while for the camera to sort it out and the result wasn't that great.  Enter some crappy Youtube tracks...



At least you can see that the ride was fun!

In Pongaroa, I only stopped briefly to turn the camera off and grab another Fire Station pic.


Next up was the bumpy little stretch of Route 52 to Weber and then a left turn to take be back through towards Dannevirke.  Lots of road works on the Weber Road.

Back on SH2, I got off it as soon as possible and took backroads towards Woodville before scooting over the Saddle and home in time for lunch.  A nice little run and it looks like the last Tigger ride of the year.

Merry Xmas all!
