In memory of Birdy, alas we hardly knew you...
« on: March 08, 2010, 06:19:46 PM »
Birdy's life came to a sudden and violent end Feb 25th 2010.  A victim of a high speed collision.  Some are suspecting that Birdy may have been suicidal, but we will never know.

Aren't you glad you were riding a BIG bike and not that wimpy little scooter you got? It would have been knocked off the road by that bird.  :stickpoke:

Of Course it's dirty. It's hard to clean when the tires keep moving.

Love the music...great video...but what is with all the vertical black lines?  It was like watching an old b&w movie.

If you don't love what you're doing, then don't do it.
Your chances of success are directly proportional to the degree of pleasure you derive from what you do.

a little post processing special effect, to hide the fact that the video quality was not all that great to begin with!
