Just watched the video again, its a good looking thing. You can even remove the fisheye look in clips etc It looks an easy to use free software, but that said it also seems as though will suit the most advanced tech geeks like STM :laugh:

Here is the video on its own

As always looks like you found some nice tracks there TB! Did I see PTW on a white Tenere?? :huh:

Yeah PTW was mounted on a white Tenere, not mine a loaner as such Used for pre running. We had a ball and they are some great tracks, a mixture of new, old (from years ago), recently used but now in other directions.
I rode the RideADV Tiger for the day, a bit of suspension development after the full Teknik’s treatment and a massive 30L safari tank. Good times

Did more pre running with PTW on Sunday. We did 600 odd kms for the day, here are a few highlights from the day. Not all of this track made the route.

Put in HD720 and enjoy

Thanx TB – I appreciate you’re busy and can’t get to everyone’s questions

Wasn’t sure about connection to the phone etc. At least i know that once the tracking starts the iphone required.

I broke down on a recent ride and sent a message to the mrs but it didn’t go to her phone no. only her email – whats the deal with that

You wont have entered her phone number or more than likely entered it incorrectly

You dont use all the digits like we do here they have a pre set for Aus, check that

Mine disconnects sometimes if I take my phone to far away from my back pack but it still continues to track. Actually before I could charge on the move I used to sync it up start the tracking and power down my iPhone for the day. When I got to the end of the day I would turn the phone back on resync it and send my message

You don’t need phone range or anything like that.

Sorry I missed your questions Linz :blush: very rude. I will pm you my mobile as I have using one of these connects before they before the app available in Aus. Bloody apple had the app in the USA but wouldn’t release it here because the connect wasn’t on sale at that stage in Aus. I had troubles early on because the unit kept turning of but I took it of the bar mount and it never did it again. I see Eags mentioned batteries, with lithium batteries mine has sat flashing for 3 weeks not tracking because it was in the house but on stand by. Most long trips I track the whole trip and replace the batteries every 10days. I have tried different lithium battery brands and found only the Sliver and blue Eveready ones last

I have had a few over the years, my suggestions would be either a Camelback mule with the 3 litre bladder (you don’t have to fill everything every time) I still have one and was happy with it but purchased a Wolfman to try.

The Wolfman from Adventure Moto (a site supporter) has better zippers that the dust doesn’t affect. It is also modular so you can add to it for more when you need it. It feels better and stronger than a camelback (I never had a problem with a camelback tearing)

From their web site

A straightforward durable hydration Day pack with a versatile fit, 3 liter reservoir, and plenty of options.

Though this pack is new for 2012, we’ve been making similar packs for ourselves for about 11 years. At heart it’s a simple pack constructed almost entirely from sturdy ballistics nylon and made in the USA.

Breathable mesh shoulder straps pivot to contour around almost any body type, shoulder shape, jacket or compression suit. An adjustable sternum strap improves the stability, comfort and fit for both men and women. The Wolfy waist belt helps get the weight off the shoulders and keeps the pack in place during aggressive riding. And the no-snag narrow profile is a must for tight single track.

The roomy main compartment closes with a large #10 YKK zipper. There’s an easy access outside zip pocket and two handy side pockets. The included easy-fill, easy-clean, clip-close, 3 liter reservoir by HydraPak fits in its own foam-lined pocket.

The Escape Pak allows the hose to be routed to either the left or right shoulder strap where the “stay close” no-flop hose management system keeps it in place. The HydraPak reservoir can be unclipped from the hose for easy filling. The hose comes with a lockable bite valve, and is extra long so it can be trimmed to the perfect length for any rider.

The outside of the pack features our Wolfman Rolie Patch (as used on our Rolie Bags) which makes it easy to add more carrying capacity. Add a small Rolie Bag, or a Wolf Bottle Holster. Or two Bottle Holsters. Or a small Rolie Bag AND two Bottle Holsters. Mix and match to make the Escape Pak suit each different ride.
