Congratulations again to mtbNYCstyle, here's a 6 minute video of the race in Taconic 909 Challenge. I think I ran out of battery during the handing out the medals so no video footage on that. Enjoy! www.vimeo.com/6485962

Special Congrats to Erwin for a first time racer and 3rd place finish. Also, Rolex what a nice bike you have there. I don't think it's the weight of the bike, I think it's the secret training. ;D ;D ;D
Way to go keep pedaling tribesmen!!!!

Great Scott!!! I guess this tribesman is still undecided to try the big wheels fever. ;D Rolex, try a titanium frame for a change. Here's something for you for the 2010 season.

Thanks guys! and yea Stumpy I guess I'm not bitten by the 29er bug yet , I will just represent the tribe as the 26er biker and if my favorite Pro xc riders like Adam Craig , Julien Absalon , Geoff Kabush and Lance Armstrong switches to 29er I'll be running to my dealer and probably get one like what your suggesting the Lynskey titanium 29er . I heard that Lynskey bikes were the original makers of Litespeed until they sold it after 15 years of manufacturing and re-emerge.
Hey Wet..it's you who's getting a lot of secret training in CHP recently but dude those training really pays off , just don't over do it .

Thanks Jon. It was fun to see the course again. Too bad that helmet of yours ended up in the way this time...
How much was the camera and how many minutes can you shoot before it runs out of juice?

Thanks Erwin, Bigboy and Viking, I'm glad you guys like the video. It took me few hours to edit a 2 hour video clip and make it to 7 minute video clip though. I don't want to post the whole video clip and bore you guys for 2 hours. That's why I try to limit my video in less than 10 minutes.
Viking the camera cost me somewhere between $199 - $269. It's Contour HD camera by Vholdr, the battery last two hours of recording time (i bought extra battery) and you can put as big as 16 GB of microSD memory card that can record up to 8 hours of HD format and 16 hours of non-hd format. I only have 8GB of memory (4 hours HD and 8 hours non-hd format. I'm still tweaking my helmet mount because the camera still shakes a lot. Last Sunday I placed the camera on the back tip of my helmet because that part was the most flat area and I thought the camera would be more stable but as you mentioned my helmet got in the way.
