Hey everyone! Finally got around to completing the editing from my Wildwood footage. Had a blast out there and got some pretty nice footage (mostly
of all of you passing me though- need some more kites : )

Yeah Cheezy- we had some good sessions out at LB. I'm sure we have more good days to look forward to after the summer.
@acampbell THANKS! I really enjoyed some of the camera angles my wife/co-pilot/ballast got from the rear buggy :D
As for the connection, I used a short section of PVC pipe between the rear axle and the tandem rig itself. I used some cheap rope from home depot to
connect the two by running it back and forth between the axle and the tandem rig 3 or 4 times through the PVC pipe section, and taped the ends so my
clove hitches wouldn't loosen under load.
The idea of the PVC was to allow the rig to pivot in the turns and it worked quite well. Plenty of range of motion.
If you message me your email I can send you some pics

Yeah I wondered how long it would take to get caught with the music. YouTube must have a crawler-bot application to troll for copyright snags. Vimeo
for sure.
Mike I think ive got it thanks. I thought about something like this before but was not sure the PVC could take the compression loads. But seeing the
rig hold up in those slides at the end cinched it for me. Very elegant and simple at the same time. Awesome. Bringing some PVC to JIBE.

Awesome Angus- let me know how it works out. Hopefully I'll get to ride with you down there sometime :D
Thanks for the positive comments on the video everyone- I really enjoy creating these.
@Cheezy- sorry 'bout the block man. I looked carefully over the Vimeo guidelines and I'm nervous to upload there because of potential copyright
issues. I know it's a pain when YouTube blocks on mobile or other devices, but I feel a certain amount of protection because I know YouTube is
communicating with the copyright holders and making ads or device restrictions available to make them happy. Vimeo doesn't do this, which means I
would be fully exposed to a copyright holder that didn't like me using their song. At least with Facebook I know that if the owner really doesn't
want me to use the song it will get pulled, Vimeo doesn't do that.

I love how your lady never stopped smiling! :D Fun!
:D:D:D Her and me both! :D:D:D
It was actually a ton more fun buggying with her than it is without. I don't think I ever want to buggy alone again! Plus, she can carry an extra
kite or two if conditions change
