JD I do not mean it that way, that there were not enough trails. What we did they were great and I hope I will be ready to drive @ TECORE X. What frame of reference do I have anyhow of the trails in VA. :scratch: :safari: :flex dirty:

I only replied that way because I wish I could be out exploring at least once every month. No offense taken.

Hey - Finally had time to go through my video footage from the trip. Unfortunately, most of the footage from Saturday was unusable, but the rest of it turned out.

So here is 3 days of driving distilled to 5 minutes. Best viewed at 1080P, full screen.

No problem! It gave me a reason to try out some new Final Cut Pro X plugins that are GoPro specific. They really made a huge difference!
